A nurse is caring for a patient who has returned from a bereavement support group.
Which of the following patient statements indicates that the patient is meeting the planned outcomes of treatment?

Choice A rationale
Agoraphobia is characterized by a fear of being in situations where escape might be difficult or embarrassing, or help might not be available in the event of panic symptoms. This does not align with the child’s symptoms of not being able to speak in class or other social situations.
Choice B rationale
Generalized anxiety disorder is characterized by excessive, uncontrollable worry about a variety of topics and is not specific to social situations. The child’s symptoms are more specific to social situations, which does not align with generalized anxiety disorder.

Choice C rationale
Selective mutism is an anxiety disorder characterized by a consistent failure to speak in specific social situations in which there is an expectation for speaking, despite speaking in other situations. This aligns with the child’s symptoms of not being able to speak during class and other social situations.
Choice D rationale
Separation anxiety disorder is characterized by excessive fear or anxiety about separation from those to whom the individual is attached. The child’s symptoms do not indicate a fear of separation, but rather a fear of speaking in social situations.

Choice A rationale
Limited access to primary care providers is a significant disadvantage related to health insurance for clients who live in rural communities. Rural areas often have fewer healthcare providers, which can make it difficult for residents to receive the care they need. This can lead to delays in care, unmet health needs, and worsening of existing health conditions.
Choice B rationale
While the availability of managed care insurance can vary by location, this is not a disadvantage specific to rural communities. Both urban and rural areas can have limited availability of certain types of health insurance.
Choice C rationale
Financial risk that is typical of underinsured clients is not specific to rural communities. Both urban and rural residents can be underinsured, which can lead to significant out-of-pocket costs and financial strain.
Choice D rationale
Lack of government-provided health insurance is not a disadvantage specific to rural communities. Government-provided health insurance programs, such as Medicare and Medicaid, are available to eligible individuals regardless of whether they live in an urban or rural area.
