Question 1 of 5
A nurse is caring for a client who has a terminal illness. The client states, 'I am not giving up. I want as much treatment as possible.' Which of the following responses should the nurse make?
Correct Answer: D
Rationale: The correct answer is D: "I will contact your provider to discuss your options." This response honors the client's wishes for further treatment while also involving the healthcare provider to discuss available options. The nurse respects the client's autonomy and ensures that the provider is aware of the client's desires, allowing for a collaborative decision-making process.
Choice A is incorrect because hospice care may not align with the client's wishes for further treatment.
Choice B is incorrect as it may not be the nurse's role to predict or disclose the client's prognosis without the provider's input.
Choice C is incorrect as it assumes the client's desires without involving the provider.
In summary, choice D is the best response as it respects the client's wishes, involves the healthcare provider, and allows for a comprehensive discussion of treatment options.
