Question 1 of 5
A nurse is formulating a care plan for a patient recovering from severe burns. Which of the following strategies should the nurse incorporate to provide emotional support? Which strategy provides emotional support for burn recovery?
Correct Answer: A
Rationale: The correct answer is A: Engage in conversation with the patient during wound care. This strategy provides emotional support by offering the patient a distraction and a sense of connection during a potentially painful and distressing procedure. It allows the patient to express their feelings and concerns, fostering a therapeutic relationship.
Choice B: Ensuring the patient's room is tidy is important for the patient's physical comfort but does not directly address emotional support.
Choice C: Keeping the patient's family informed is crucial for communication but may not directly provide emotional support to the patient.
Choice D: Rotating nursing staff may offer varied interactions, but consistency and building rapport with the same caregiver can be more beneficial for emotional support in this context.
