A client presents to the emergency department (ED reporting abdominal pain. The nurse observes the client's right cheek and eye are bruised and suspects possible domestic violence. Which approach is best for the nurse to use when interviewing the client?

A. Share personal values to put the client at ease: Sharing personal values may not be appropriate and could potentially alienate the client or make them feel judged. B. Get the most difficult questions over with first: Starting with difficult questions may increase the client's defensiveness and resistance to sharing information. C. Ask questions in a vague, non-specific format: Being vague may not elicit the necessary information and could lead to misunderstandings or incomplete responses. D. Begin with questions that are less sensitive in nature: Starting with less sensitive questions helps build rapport and trust with the client before addressing more sensitive topics like domestic violence. It allows the client to feel more comfortable and may increase the likelihood of obtaining accurate information.
