A client diagnosed with myasthenia gravis is ready to return home. The client confides that she is concerned that her significant other will no longer find her physically attractive. Which client-focused action should the nurse encourage in the plan of care?
Correct answer
D
Rationale
Talking to the client about sharing her feelings with her husband directly addresses the subject of the question. Encouraging the client to start a support group will not address the client's immediate and individual concerns. Options 2 and 3 are blocks to communication and avoid the client's concern.
