Question 1 of 5
During the work phase of the nurse-client relationship, the client says to her primary nurse, "You think that I could walk if I wanted to, don't you?"? What is the best response by the nurse?
Correct Answer: D
Rationale: This response answers the question honestly and nonjudgmentally and helps to preserve the client's self-esteem. The nurse acknowledges the client's current inability to walk without attributing it to the client's desire.
Choice A provides a positive but unrealistic statement that may diminish the client's self-esteem by implying a lack of effort.
Choice B deflects the client's question and does not address the underlying concern.
Choice C may increase the client's anxiety by suggesting unresolved psychological conflicts related to walking.
