Question 1 of 5
Family members of a patient ask repeated questions about the monitors and various readings in the patient's room. What is the most supportive response to their questions?
Correct Answer: D
Rationale: Addressing the family's questions and providing an overview of information validates their concerns and addresses their requests. Limiting details and encouraging them to focus on the patient helps to avoid anxiety that could be created by focusing on values that should be interpreted in the context of the patient's situation by professionals with experience with such data. It also encourages them to provide what they uniquely have to offer: a comforting presence for their loved one.
Choice A is dismissive and does not address the family's needs.
Choice B may overwhelm the family with unnecessary technical information.
Choice C is unhelpful as it disregards the family's genuine interest and concern.
Therefore, choice D is the most appropriate response as it balances providing information while guiding the family to focus on supporting the patient.
