Question 1 of 5

The nurse is planning interventions for counseling a maternal client who has been newly diagnosed with sickle cell anemia. Which would be the most important psychosocial intervention at this time?

Correct Answer: A

Rationale: One of the most important nursing roles is providing emotional support to the client and family during the counseling process. Option 2, like option 4, is nontherapeutic. Option 3 is only appropriate if the client requests to be alone; if this is not requested, the nurse is abandoning the client in a time of need. Option 4 overwhelms the client with information while she is trying to cope with the news of the disease.
