A nurse is caring for a client who has had a stroke involving the right hemisphere. Which of the following alterations in function should the nurse expect?

Correct Answer: C

Rationale: The correct answer is C: Inability to recognize his family members. When a stroke affects the right hemisphere of the brain, it can lead to a condition called hemispatial neglect, where the individual may fail to recognize or respond to stimuli on the side opposite to the brain lesion. This can include neglecting or being unable to recognize familiar faces, such as family members, due to the brain's impaired ability to process visual information from the left side. Right hemiparesis (
A) is typically associated with left hemisphere strokes. Aphasia (
B) is more common in left hemisphere strokes affecting language centers. Difficulty reading (
