NU 400-MENTAL HEALTH-PSYCHIATRIC NURSING PROCTORED EXAM (EXAM 1 WEEK 3) ST. JOSEPH'S COLLEGE ME
When the client says, "I met Joe at the dance last week," what is the best way for the nurse to ask the client to describe her relationship with Joe?
Explanation & Rationale
A. “Tell me about you and Joe.” is correct because it focuses on the client’s perspective of the relationship and invites open discussion. B. “Tell me about Joe.” shifts the focus to Joe as a person, not the client’s relationship with him. C. “Joe who?” is dismissive and does not encourage further exploration. D. “Joe? You mean that blond guy with the dark blue eyes?” makes assumptions, adds unnecessary detail, and distracts from the client’s own description.
