Question 1 of 5
A nurse is caring for a client following reported physical abuse. The client is quiet and withdrawn. Which of the following actions should the nurse take?
Correct Answer: D
Rationale: Invite a family member to be present for the nursing history: This may discourage the client from sharing truthful information if the family member is the perpetrator. Display disapproval toward the perpetrator: Displaying judgment can increase the client's distress and reduce their openness. Probe the client to offer a factual account of the abuse: Pressuring the client to share details can retraumatize them. Be direct and honest when communicating with the client. Direct, honest communication helps build trust, which is essential for abused clients who may feel vulnerable.
