The wife of a male client recently diagnosed with schizophrenia asks the nurse, 'What exactly is
schizophrenia? Is my husband all right?" Which response is best for the nurse to provide to this family
member?

A- It sounds like you're worried about your husband- Let's sit down and talk

B- It is a chemical imbalance in the brain that causes disorganized thinking

C- Your husband will be just fine if he takes his medications regularly

D- I think you should talk to your husband's psychologist about this question ANSWER B

The nurse should answer the client's question with factual information and explain that schizophrenia is
a chemical imbalance in the brain (B)



(A) is a therapeutic response but does not answer the question, and may be an appropriate response
after the nurse answers the question asked Although (C) is likely true to some degree, it is also true that
some clients continue to have disorganized thinking even with antipsychotic medications- Referring the
spouse to the psychologist (D) is avoiding the issue; the nurse can and should answer the question

A 40-year-old male client diagnosed with schizophrenia and alcohol dependence has not had any visitors
or phone calls since admission. He reports he has no family that cares about him and was living on the
streets prior to this admission. According to Erikson's theory of psychosocial development, which stage
is the client in at this time?

A. Isolation.

B. Stagnation.

C. Despair.

D. Role confusion. ANSWER B

maintaining intimate relationships and moving toward developing a family (B)- (A) occurs in young
adulthood (age 18 to 25), (C) occurs in maturity (age 45 to death), and (D) occurs in adolescence (age 12
to 20)- These are all stages that occur if individuals are not successfully coping with their psychosocial
developmental stage

highest priority?

A. Excessive work activity.

B. Decreased need for sleep.

A 35-year-old male client who has been hospitalized for two weeks for chronic paranoia continues to
state that someone is trying to steal his clothing- Which action should the nurse implement?

A- Encourage the client to actively participate in assigned activities on the unit

B- Place a lock on the client's closet

C- Ignore the client's paranoid ideation to extinguish these behaviors

D- Explain to the client that his suspicions are false ANSWER A

Diverting the client's attention from paranoid ideation and encouraging him to complete assignments
can be helpful in assisting him to develop a positive self-image (A)- The clients problem is not security,
and (B) actually supports his paranoid ideation- (C) is not correct because ignoring the client's symptoms
may lower his self-esteem- The nurse should not argue with the client about his delusions (D), and
should not try to reason with the client regarding his paranoid ideation

A. The emergency room nurse.

B. His case manager.

C. The clinic healthcare provider.

D. His support group sponsor. ANSWER B

diagnosis, this is the best person to describe available treatment options. (A) is unnecessary, unless the
client experiences behaviors that threaten his safety or the safety of others. (C and D) might also be
useful, but it is most important at this time that a treatment program be coordinated to meet this
client's needs.
