Question 1 of 5
A nurse who is co-leading group therapy recognizes that a client is beginning to experience severe levels of anxiety. Which intervention is best for the nurse to implement?
Correct Answer: C
Rationale: Assisting the client with relaxation techniques in the group is the best intervention as it provides immediate support and can help alleviate the client's anxiety in the moment. Exploring the source of anxiety may not be suitable during a group session where immediate relief is needed. Education on coping mechanisms is valuable but does not address immediate needs. Escorting the client out may be considered if anxiety becomes overwhelming, but it is secondary to attempting in-group relaxation.
