MULTIPLE CHOICE

1. Which outcome, focused on recovery, would be expected in the plan of care for a patient
living in the community and diagnosed with serious and personal mental illness? Within 3
months, the patient will demonstrate what behavior?
a. Denying suicidal ideation
b. Reporting a sense of well-being
c. Taking medications as prescribed
d. Attending clinic appointments on time
ANS: B
Recovery emphasizes managing symptoms, reducing psychosocial disability, and improving
role performance. The goal of recovery is to empower the individual with mental illness to
achieve a sense of meaning and satisfaction in life and to function at the highest possible level
of wellness. The incorrect options focus on the classic medical model rather than recovery.

2. A patient is hospitalized for depression and suicidal ideation after their spouse asks for a
divorce. Select the nurse’s most caring comment.
a. “Let’s discuss healthy means of coping when you have suicidal feelings.”
b. “I understand why you’re so depressed. When I got divorced, I was devastated
too.”
c. “You should forget about your marriage and move on with your life.”
d. “How did you get so depressed that hospitalization was necessary?”
ANS: A

, The nurse’s communication should evidence caring and a commitment to work with the
patient. This commitment lets the patient know the nurse will help. Probing and advice are not
helpful for therapeutic interventions.

society.”
ANS: D
