ATI NCLEX-PN Practice Questions Practice Question
The unlicensed assistive personnel (UAP) notices a strange amulet pinned to the client's gown and offers to remove it. The client does not want it removed. Which rationale should the nurse give the UAP for allowing the client to continue to wear the amulet?
Correct Answer: C
Rationale: Allowing the client to keep the amulet respects their emotional needs and personal beliefs, which are vital for their overall well-being and comfort during care. This support can enhance their sense of security and connection to their identity.
Option A, while acknowledging potential distress, does not fully capture the significance of emotional support provided by the amulet. Option B dismisses the amulet's importance, undermining the client's values. Option D trivializes the item’s worth, failing to recognize its potential emotional significance to the client. Respecting personal items fosters trust and dignity in the care relationship.
