Question 1 of 5

A nurse on an inpatient mental health unit is caring for a client who was admitted for suicidal ideation. Which of the following statements by the client should the nurse identify as a continuation of suicidal ideation?

Correct Answer: D

Rationale: The correct answer is D. The statement "I'm going to give my sister my pottery collection when I get home" indicates planning for the future, which could be a way to tie up loose ends before attempting suicide. This statement shows a potential lack of hope or desire to live beyond the current plans, thus continuing suicidal ideation.



Choices A, B, and C are incorrect because they demonstrate positive coping mechanisms and future-oriented thoughts, which are typically signs of improvement and reduced risk of suicidal behavior.
Choice A shows a commitment to sobriety, choice B indicates engaging in physical activity for relaxation, and choice C reflects anticipation of positive and meaningful interactions with family.
