Question 1 of 5

A nurse is planning care for a client who has borderline personality disorder and engages in self-mutilation. Which intervention should the nurse include?

Correct Answer: B

Rationale: The correct answer is B: Encourage the client to express feelings of anger. For clients with borderline personality disorder, self-mutilation often stems from difficulty in managing intense emotions. Encouraging the client to express feelings of anger can help them process and cope with their emotions in a healthier way, reducing the need for self-harm. Restricting access to personal belongings (
A) may increase feelings of frustration and lead to more self-mutilation. Placing the client in seclusion (
C) can worsen feelings of isolation and may not address the underlying emotional issues. Simply telling the client to stop self-mutilation (
D) is not effective as it overlooks the complex emotional reasons behind the behavior.
