A nurse is caring for a client who is to begin chemotherapy.The client asks the nurse about managing hair loss.Which of the following responses should the nurse make?

Choice A rationale:Delaying the discussion about managing hair loss when the client has expressed concern is not the best approach. The nurse should provide information and support when the client seeks it.Choice B rationale:Discouraging the client from worrying about hair loss at this moment is not empathetic. The client's concerns should be acknowledged and addressed.Choice C rationale:Expressing empathy and relating to the client's emotional experience is a good practice, but it does not directly answer the client's question about managing hair loss.Choice D rationale:Offering to get information about head-covering options indicates an understanding of the client's concerns and provides a proactive solution. It shows empathy and willingness to support the client during chemotherapy, where hair loss can be a significant emotional issue.
