Question 1 of 5
A nurse is reinforcing discharge teaching with a client who has several new prescriptions for psychotropic medications. The client tells the nurse that she has always had trouble following a medication regimen. Which of the following responses should the nurse make?
Correct Answer: D
Rationale: The correct answer, indicated as D.
Rationale: Telling the client to 'work hard' to stay on schedule does not address the underlying difficulty with medication adherence. Saying not to worry about past issues may minimize the client's concerns and challenges. Asking 'why' the client finds it difficult to take medications might not encourage open communication and could make the client feel judged. Collaborating with the client to create a schedule that is convenient and achievable increases the likelihood of adherence and fosters a sense of control and partnership.
