    Which is the best approach for the nurse to use when interviewing a client about sexual abuse?

    Explanation & Rationale

    A. Beginning with less sensitive questions helps establish trust and rapport with the client, making it easier to discuss more difficult topics later. This approach can make the client feel more comfortable and less threatened, thereby improving the quality of the information gathered. B. Sharing personal values can introduce bias and potentially influence the client's responses, making the interview less objective. C. Starting with the most difficult questions can make the client feel anxious and defensive, reducing the likelihood of obtaining honest and thorough responses. D. Asking vague, non-specific questions can lead to ambiguous answers and fail to provide the detailed information needed for a proper assessment.
