A nurse's sibling had a diagnostic test at the nurse's facility. The sibling asks the nurse to look up the result in the computer. The nurse should identify which of the following as the reason for her decision about her sibling's request?

Explanation:

A. Incorporate the treatment into the client's care:

Once the nurse has determined whether the client's grieving is healthy or complicated, they can integrate appropriate treatments and interventions into the client's care plan. Treatment options may include counseling, therapy, support groups, medication (if indicated), and holistic approaches to address physical, emotional, and spiritual aspects of grief.

B. Develop client-specific goals and outcomes:

Collaborating with the client, the nurse establishes client-specific goals and outcomes related to grief management and coping. These goals should be realistic, measurable, and aligned with the client's needs and preferences. Examples of goals may include improving coping skills, reducing emotional distress, fostering acceptance, and promoting resilience.

C. Determine whether coping strategies were successful:

Throughout the care process, the nurse continuously evaluates the effectiveness of coping strategies implemented to support the client in managing grief. Assessment of coping strategies involves monitoring the client's emotional state, functional status, coping skills utilization, and progress toward achieving established goals and outcomes. Adjustments to the care plan may be made based on the assessment findings.

D. Establish whether the client's grieving is healthy or complicated:

This step involves assessing the client's grief to determine whether it is a normal, healthy response to loss or if it has become complicated, characterized by intense, prolonged, or dysfunctional grief reactions. Assessing the client's grief status is crucial for tailoring appropriate interventions and support.

A.While childhood obesity is a health concern, it is not a specific indicator of abuse. Obesity can result from dietary habits, lack of physical activity, or medical conditions.

B.Fear of injections is common in children and is a typical developmental response. Crying during an injection is not an indicator of abuse and is expected behavior for many children.

C.While this finding alone does not confirm abuse, it may indicate an underlying issue in the adolescent's home environment. It requires further exploration through careful, open-ended questioning to assess for potential emotional or physical abuse or neglect.

D.Bruising on the shins of toddlers is common due to normal play and falls during development. The explanation provided by the parents aligns with typical toddler behavior and does not raise immediate concerns for abuse unless the bruises are in unusual locations (e.g., abdomen, back, or thighs).
