问题 单项选择题

The nurse is caring for a client who is suicidal. When accompanying the client to the bathroom, the nurse should ().

A.give him privacy in the bathroom.

B.allow him to shave.

C.open the window and allow him to get some fresh air.

D.observe him.

答案

参考答案:D

解析:

The nurse has a responsibility to observe continuously the acutely suicidal client--not provide privacy. The nurse should watch for clues, such as communicating suicidal thoughts, threats, and messages; hoarding medications; and talking about death. By accompanying the client to the bathroom, the nurse will naturally prevent hanging or other injury. The nurse will check the client's area and fix dangerous conditions, such as exposed pipes and windows without safety glass. The nurse will also remove potentially dangerous objects, such as belts, razors, suspenders, glass, and knives.
