Answer to Question 1

C
This is an example of the nontherapeutic communication block of making stereotyped comments. Clichs and trite expressions are meaningless in a therapeutic nurseclient relationship.

Answer to Question 2

B
The best response by the nurse is, You're experiencing feelings of guilt because you weren't able to save your children. This response utilizes the therapeutic communication technique of reflection, which identifies a client's emotional response and reflects these feelings back to the client so that they may be recognized and accepted.
