Question 1 of 5
The nurse asks the client 'What was it like for you when you first knew you had no place to go?' The client looks down and pauses for some time. What actions by the nurse is the most therapeutic?
Correct Answer: A
Rationale: Sit quietly until the client responds is the most therapeutic as it allows the client time to process and respond, showing patience and support. Tell the client they must express the unpleasant feelings is coercive and not therapeutic. Apologize for asking such a personal question undermines the therapeutic process and suggests discomfort with the topic. Change the subject to something the client will discuss avoids addressing the client's feelings and is not therapeutic.
