A nurse in an Employee Assistance Program (EAP) is seeing a woman who wants to report her boss to the police for sexual harassment. She states he says that she will be a friend... [incomplete]. Which of the following actions should the nurse take?
Correct answer
A
Rationale
Advising the client to document incidents provides evidence for reporting and empowers her to take action, which is appropriate in an EAP context. Confrontation may be unsafe, immediate legal referral is premature without documentation, and dismissing her concerns is invalidating.
