A nurse is discussing the components of the working phase of the nurse-client relationship with a client. Which of the following tasks are specific for this stage to create a therapeutic environment?

A. Reviewing client education: Reviewing education is often part of the termination phase, where teaching is reinforced and the nurse ensures the client understands care plans after the therapeutic relationship ends. It is not a primary focus during the working phase. B. Identifying problem-solving skills: The working phase focuses on active problem-solving, setting goals, and implementing strategies to address the client's issues. This is when trust is established further, and the nurse and client collaborate on interventions and coping techniques to promote positive outcomes. C. Summarizing the goals and objectives achieved: Summarizing achievements is part of the termination phase, when the nurse and client reflect on progress made. It helps bring closure to the relationship but does not belong to the working phase where the focus is still on active progress. D. Specifying a contract: Specifying a contract is a task of the orientation phase, where the structure of the nurse-client relationship, roles, and expectations are defined. This lays the foundation before entering into the problem-solving focus of the working phase.
