In the nurse-client relationship, which phase is characterized by the establishment of new goals after the initial goals have been met?

A. Exploitation phase : This is an outdated term; it refers to a subphase of the working phase, but not specifically to goal-setting after initial goals are met. B. Termination phase: The termination phase is when the nurse-client relationship ends and final evaluations are made, not when new goals are set. C. Orientation phase: The orientation phase is when the initial goals and trust are established, not when new goals are set. D. Working phase: The working phase involves active intervention and goal achievement. When initial goals are met, new ones are set, making this the best answer.
