Question 1 of 5

A nurse is caring for an older adult client following the sudden death of their spouse. The client feels stuck in their ability to deal with work and family responsibilities. The nurse should recognize that the client is experiencing which type of crisis?

Correct Answer: D

Rationale: The correct answer is D: Situational crisis. In this scenario, the sudden death of the client's spouse is an external event causing a crisis. Situational crises are triggered by unexpected events, disrupting the individual's ability to cope with their responsibilities. The client's feelings of being stuck in handling work and family duties indicate a disruption in their normal functioning due to the situational crisis. The other choices are not applicable in this context. Adventitious crisis refers to traumatic events like natural disasters. Maturational crisis involves normal life transitions. Developmental crisis relates to stages of life. In summary, the sudden death of the spouse causing disruption in the client's ability to manage responsibilities aligns with a situational crisis.
