Question 1 of 5
A nurse is talking with an older adult client who is contemplating retirement. The client states, 'I keep thinking about how much I enjoy my job. I'm not sure I want to retire.' Which of the following responses should the nurse make?
Correct Answer: C
Rationale: The correct response is C: "Let's talk about how the change in your job status will affect you." This response acknowledges the client's feelings and initiates a discussion about the potential impact of retirement on their well-being. It shows empathy and encourages open communication, allowing the nurse to explore the client's concerns and fears about retirement. This approach promotes client-centered care and helps the nurse understand the client's perspective better.
Choices A, B, and D are incorrect because they do not address the client's feelings or concerns directly. Option A assumes the client's main motivation for retirement is to spend time with family, which may not be the case. Option B and D provide suggestions without first understanding the client's thoughts and emotions, potentially dismissing their feelings. It is essential to prioritize the client's autonomy and individual needs in such discussions.
