Question 1 of 5
A nurse is caring for a client who is near the end of life and is on complete bed rest. The client states that he needs to have a bowel movement, and the nurse offers a bed pan. The client states, 'I've always used the bathroom.' Which of the following responses should the nurse make?
Correct Answer: A
Rationale: The correct answer is A: "Tell me what concerns you have about using a bed pan." This response demonstrates therapeutic communication by acknowledging the client's feelings and allowing them to express their concerns. By understanding the client's perspective, the nurse can address specific fears or preferences related to using the bed pan. This approach promotes client autonomy and dignity.
Choice B is incorrect because it disregards the client's expressed need for a bowel movement while on complete bed rest.
Choice C is inappropriate as it assumes the client is physically able to be ambulated to the bathroom, which may not be the case.
Choice D is incorrect as it is a directive statement that does not address the client's concerns or preferences.
