The nurse is assessing a client who has recently found out she is pregnant. Which of the following statements would be a priority for the nurse to follow up on?
Correct answer
D
Rationale
The nurse should follow up on the client's lack of support system. Even if there is no family in the area, there are supportive resources in the community that may help the client through the pregnancy and into motherhood. It is normal for the client to worry about labor, address financial concerns, and express displeasure from early pregnancy symptoms such as nausea.
