Question 1 of 5

The nurse is caring for a patient who has been trying to quit smoking. The patient has been smoke free for 2 weeks but had two cigarettes last night and at least two this morning, what should the nurse anticipate?

Correct Answer: D

Rationale: The correct answer is D. The patient's behavior of smoking again after being smoke-free for 2 weeks indicates a relapse, moving the patient back to the contemplation or precontemplation phase of the stages of change model. This phase involves reconsidering the decision to change and reflecting on the reasons for quitting smoking. The other choices are incorrect because A assumes immediate continuity, B focuses on lifestyle changes, and C makes a definitive statement about the patient's future behavior without considering relapse as a common part of the quitting process.
