Question 1 of 5

A nurse is caring for a client who is scheduled for open heart surgery. The client states, 'I am confident I will be able to go home a few hours after the surgery.' The nurse should identify that the client is experiencing which of the following stages of grief?

Correct Answer: D

Rationale: The correct answer is D: Denial. The client's statement of confidence to go home shortly after open heart surgery indicates denial, as it shows an unrealistic belief or avoidance of the reality of the situation. Denial is a common defense mechanism in the grieving process, where individuals refuse to accept the truth to protect themselves from the emotional impact of the situation. Anger (
A), depression (
B), and acceptance (
C) are not applicable in this scenario as the client's statement does not reflect anger, sadness, or genuine acceptance of the upcoming surgery. It is important for the nurse to recognize the client's denial stage and provide support and education to help the client cope effectively with the impending surgery and recovery.
