Question 1 of 5
A nurse is caring for an adolescent client who has pelvic inflammatory disease as a consequence of a sexually transmitted infection, and will need intravenous antibiotic therapy. The client tells the nurse, 'My parents think I am a virgin. I don't think I can tell them I have this kind of an infection.' Which of the following responses should the nurse make?
Correct Answer: B
Rationale: The correct answer is B: "You seem scared to talk to your parents." This response acknowledges the client's fear and discomfort in disclosing their condition to their parents, showing empathy and understanding. It opens the door for the client to express their concerns and feelings.
A: Offering to tell the parents without the client's consent violates their autonomy and privacy.
C: This response is forceful and does not consider the client's emotions or preferences.
D: While well-meaning, this response assumes the parents will react positively without considering the client's fears.
In summary, Option B is the best choice as it demonstrates empathy and supports the client's emotional needs during a difficult situation.
