ATI Mental Health Exam II | Nurselytic

Correct Answer: D

Rationale: The correct response is D: Tell me more about your concerns about taking chemotherapy. This response demonstrates active listening and empathy towards the client's preferences and concerns. It allows the nurse to understand the client's reasons for wanting nontraditional treatments and to address those concerns effectively. It opens up a dialogue for shared decision-making and promotes patient autonomy and informed decision-making.

Incorrect responses:
A: Using nontraditional treatments is not a good idea. I'd rather you avoid that route - This response is dismissive and does not respect the client's autonomy and preferences.
B: Your provider is very knowledgeable. If he prescribes chemotherapy, it's the best treatment for you - This response does not address the client's concerns or preferences and implies that the provider knows best without considering the client's perspective.
C: A lot of people think nontraditional treatments will work, and they find out too late that they made the wrong choice - This response uses fear tactics and does not acknowledge the client's individual beliefs and values.
