Question 1 of 5

A nurse is caring for a young adult client who says he is experiencing increased anxiety and an inability to concentrate. Which of the following responses should the nurse make?

Correct Answer: A

Rationale: The correct answer is A: "It sounds like you’re having a difficult time." This response shows empathy and validation towards the client's feelings, which can help build rapport and trust. It acknowledges the client's emotions without making assumptions or judgments. It opens up the conversation for the client to further express their concerns and feelings.

Option B is incorrect because it assumes the client has not talked to their parents yet, which may not be the case and can invalidate the client's feelings. Option C is incorrect as it puts the client on the spot and may come off as confrontational. Option D is incorrect as it focuses on the duration rather than addressing the client's current emotional state.
