The nurse knows that a client who is being admitted to the hospital has been approved for only a 4-day stay. This will require the nurse to:
 
  1. Choose a specific theoretical model as the basis for care
  2. Establish a relationship that is client-centered and goal-oriented
  3. Focus on the milieu and psychopharmacology
  4. Promote positive transference in the client

Question 2

By day 2 (the end of the orientation phase), which outcome can be identified for a newly admit-ted client? The client will demonstrate:
 
  1. Ability to problem solve one issue
  2. Trust in at least one nurse
  3. Positive transference with a staff member
  4. Ability to ask for help in meeting needs

Answer to Question 1

ANS: 2
All therapeutic relationships are client-centered and goal-oriented. This becomes critical when the stay is short and the issues of boundaries, safety, and trust must be addressed before beginning work on the identified problem. 1. This is not a requisite. 3. Milieu will be important, but psy-chopharmacology may not be used. 4. This is not a requirement.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: 2
Establishing trust in the nurse is a fundamental task of the orientation phase of the relationship; thus it is an appropriate outcome to identify. When trust is present, the client is free to focus on the work and tasks of therapy. 1. This is an outcome appropriate for the working phase. 3. This would not be an identified outcome. 4. This would not be an identified outcome for the orienta-tion phase.
