Question 1 of 5

A nurse is developing a plan of care for a client who has schizophrenia and is experiencing auditory hallucinations. Which of the following actions should the nurse include in the plan?

Correct Answer: C

Rationale: The correct answer is C: Ask the client directly what he is hearing. This is the best action because it acknowledges the client's experience without reinforcing the hallucinations as real. By directly asking the client about their hallucinations, the nurse can gather important information to better understand the client's experience and tailor the care plan accordingly.


Choice A is incorrect because lying down in a quiet room may not address the client's auditory hallucinations.
Choice B is incorrect as it can validate the hallucinations as real, which can exacerbate the client's symptoms.
Choice D is incorrect as avoiding eye contact can create a barrier to communication.
