A client who is an attorney says to the clinic nurse,
“I’m worried about my wife. She’s been so distant and
disorganized since our son died of leukemia 4 months
ago. She never suggests that we go out or take our
other children anywhere. Is this normal, or do I need to
get her to a doctor?” Which statement by the nurse
would be therapeutic?
A. “Absolutely. It sounds as if she may be
experiencing a severe depression.”
B. “To be safe, it would not hurt to have her
see your family doctor, or maybe you have a
member of the clergy she can talk to.”
C. “The reluctance to resume activities and
overprotect your other children is a normal
part of bereavement and will subside in 2

months.”
D. “It’s normal, but by the end of a year you
can expect that your wife is improving and
able to redirect her energy. Have you
expressed your concerns to her?” Correct
Rationale: The nurse should provide the husband with
correct information and let him know that
disorganization and a depressive mood usually ease
over the course of a year’s bereavement and that
loneliness and aimlessness usually peak 6 to 9
months after a death. In stating, “Absolutely. It sounds
as if she may be experiencing a severe depression,”
the nurse overreacts and offers a pseudodiagnosis.
This is nontherapeutic and unprofessional. In stating,
“To be safe, it would not hurt to have her see your
family doctor, or maybe you have a member of the
clergy she can talk to,” the nurse offers a good source
of support as a referral, which may be helpful, but it is
incorrect to allow the spouse to be concerned. Stating,
“The reluctance to resume activities and overprotect
your other children is a normal part of bereavement
and will subside in 2 months” is a partly correct

response, but because depression usually peaks
between 6 and 9 months after a death, a component of
the option is incorrect.
Test-Taking Strategy: Focus on the data in the
question and use your knowledge of the grieving
process to answer the question. Eliminate the options
that would increase the husband’s concern. Also note
that the correct option provides accurate information
and encourages the husband to express his concerns
to his wife. Review: the grieving process.

A client says to the nurse, “I’ve been following my
diet and taking my medication. What else do you want
to talk about today?” Which response would be most
helpful during the working phase of the therapeutic
alliance?
A. “Sounds fine to me. Let’s meet again in 6
months.”
B. “I don’t believe that you have been following
your diet, because you haven’t lost any
weight.”
C. “Well, you’ve talked about diet in your
terms, but perhaps I should test you on
specific things.”
