Which statement by an older female client who lost her spouse two years ago should indicate to the practical nurse (PN) that the client may need bereavement counseling?

"I realize that my life must go on, but sometimes I wonder why.” Choice A rationale: This statement may indicate frustration with physical limitations, which is common in older adults, especially after surgery. It does not necessarily indicate a need for bereavement counseling. Choice B rationale: Difficulty remembering simple things can be attributed to normal aging processes or other factors not directly related to bereavement. Choice C rationale: Expressing a sense of wondering "why”. after the loss of a spouse suggests ongoing grief and a potential need for bereavement counseling to process feelings and find meaning in life after the loss. Choice D rationale: Depending on children who live close-by is a common support mechanism for older adults and does not directly indicate a need for bereavement counseling.
