Question 5 of 5

Correct Answer: B

Nothing in the statement indicates that the client is at risk for harming herself. Ineffective Role Performance could be correct but is not the best choice because the statement does not reflect a disruption of the parent's role. Powerlessness could be an appropriate nursing diagnosis if the client described feeling powerless about the infertility.
