Question 1 of 5
A nurse is caring for a client following a bilateral mastectomy. The client is often tearful and avoids looking at her dressings. Which of the following actions should the nurse take first?
Correct Answer: A
Rationale: The correct answer is A. Identifying the impact of the mastectomy on the client's body image is the first step because it addresses the emotional aspect of the client's condition. By understanding the client's feelings and concerns, the nurse can provide appropriate emotional support and interventions. Encouraging the client to assist with dressing changes (
B) may be important but should come after addressing the emotional needs. Referring the client to a support group (
