Question 1 of 5
A nurse is caring for a client who is extremely suspicious of the nursing staff and other clients. Which of the following nursing approaches is appropriate when establishing a therapeutic relationship with this client?
Correct Answer: A
Rationale: The correct answer is A: Adopt a neutral attitude when providing care. This approach is appropriate because it allows the nurse to establish trust and build rapport with the suspicious client without overwhelming them. Being neutral helps to convey non-judgmental and non-threatening behavior, which is essential in gaining the client's trust. Waiting for the client to initiate interaction (
B) may lead to prolonged periods of mistrust. Disclosing personal information (
C) can blur professional boundaries and may further increase the client's suspicion. Approaching the client frequently (
D) may be perceived as invasive and could escalate the client's distrust.
Therefore, adopting a neutral attitude is the most suitable approach in this situation.
