Question 1 of 5

The client with muscle weakness asks the nurse during the initial assessment if the symptoms suggest 'Lou Gehrig’s' disease. Which is the nurse’s most appropriate response?

Correct Answer: B

Rationale: There is no information that the client is working too much. Telling the client to avoid thinking the worst belittles the client’s concern. This is the most appropriate response because it focuses on the client’s concern, encourages verbalization, and solicits more information. ALS (Lou Gehrig’s disease) is a degenerative disease that affects the motor system and does not have a dementia component; thus, a question about memory is inappropriate. This response does not take the client seriously and does not address the client’s concern.
