Question 1 of 5
A woman in a severely abusive relationship is hospitalized with severe injuries and head trauma. Her husband sends flowers to the unit and a card begging for forgiveness. The nurse recognizes this to be which phase in an abusive relationship?
Correct Answer: B
Rationale: The correct answer is B: Phase III: The Honeymoon Phase. This phase follows a severe incident of abuse, where the abuser tries to reconcile by showing remorse and kindness. The flowers and card from the husband display classic signs of this phase, where the abuser aims to regain control and manipulate the victim emotionally. This phase often tricks the victim into thinking the abuse won't happen again, leading to a cycle of abuse.
Choices A, C, and D are incorrect because Phase IV does not typically involve genuine forgiveness, Phase II refers to the acute incident itself, and Phase I is characterized by tension-building before the abuse occurs.
