Answer to Question 1
C
Feedback:
The nurse should allow the client to take her own time in moving through the dying process, rather than hastening her through it, because this will not help the client. The nurse should not try to convince the client that she is dying or explain to the client that all people eventually die, because the client is aware of these facts, but is not willing to accept them at the moment. It would not be appropriate for the nurse to ask the client to seek comfort in prayer, because she needs to accept the situation first.
Answer to Question 2
C
Feedback:
The client is going through the bargaining stage of dying, because the client is trying to make a deal in the hope of postponing death. The client is not undergoing depression, because the client is not concentrating on past losses. The client is not in the denial stage of dying, because the client is not ignoring reality. The client is not denying the diagnosis of terminal illness and, thus, is not going through a denial stage.
