You are a staff nurse working on a psychiatric unit. Your head nurse reports that a newly admitted client is withdrawn. You knock, announce yourself, and obtain the client's permission to enter the client's room.
You sit about 5 feet away from the client. The client moves to the corner of the room farthest from you without ever looking up. As a psychiatric nurse, you understand that the MOST likely reason that the client moved was because the client: a. doesn't like you and is deliberately snubbing you
b. is intolerant of physical closeness to others
c. prefers to talk to you in a group setting rather than one-on-one
d. would like to speak, but needs a better view of you
