Question 1 of 5
A nurse is planning to conduct a support group for adolescents who have cancer. Which of the following actions should the nurse include during the orientation phase?
Correct Answer: D
Rationale: The correct answer is D: Establish a rapport with group members. During the orientation phase of a support group, it is crucial for the nurse to build a trusting relationship with group members. This helps create a safe and welcoming environment for participants to share their thoughts and feelings. By establishing rapport, the nurse sets the foundation for effective communication and encourages group members to engage in the support group activities.
Incorrect options:
A: Managing conflict within the group is more relevant during the working phase of the group, not the orientation phase.
B: Encouraging problem-solving skills is important, but establishing rapport comes first in building a supportive environment.
C: Maintaining the group's focus on identified issues is essential but is more relevant during the working phase once rapport is established.
