Question 1 of 5
A nurse is caring for a client who has named a person to serve as his health care proxy. The client states he needs clarification about this type of advance directives. Which of the following statements by the client indicates a need for clarification?
Correct Answer: B
Rationale: The correct answer is B because the statement "I have to choose a family member as my health proxy" is incorrect. The client needs clarification because they can choose anyone to serve as their health care proxy, not just a family member. This is important for the client to understand as they may have a close friend or trusted individual who they prefer to make healthcare decisions on their behalf.
A, C, and D are incorrect because they all reflect accurate information about health care proxies. A states the proxy goes into effect when the client is unable to make decisions, which is true. C mentions that the proxy will make end-of-life choices if the client is incapacitated, which is also true. D states that the client can change their designated proxy at any time, which is also accurate.
Therefore, the client's statement in option B is the only one that requires clarification, making it the correct answer.
