Question 1 of 5

A nurse is caring for a client who states, 'I have got to get out of this hospital! They have found my address and are coming for my family!' The nurse responds, 'Don't worry, no one will harm your family.' Which of the following types of communication breakdown does this response represent?

Correct Answer: B

Rationale: The correct answer is B: Offering false reassurance. By telling the client, "Don't worry, no one will harm your family," the nurse is providing false reassurance without addressing the client's underlying concerns. This can invalidate the client's feelings and exacerbate their anxiety. It is crucial for the nurse to acknowledge the client's fears and provide support without dismissing or downplaying them.

Incorrect choices:
A: Showing disapproval - The nurse is not expressing disapproval towards the client's concerns.
C: Providing a passive response - The nurse's response is not passive but rather attempting to reassure the client.
D: Offering sympathy - The nurse's response does not convey sympathy but rather false reassurance.
