I think it would be to alert the parents. for his protection, it shouldn't be secret. The nurse shouldn't honor the confidentiality of the situation.

The nurse is working with a client who has quit several jobs and no longer sends financial support to the client's two children
VARVARA [1.3K]

Options for the question have not been provided. They are as follows:

A) "How is not working right now affecting you?"

B) "How do you expect your kids to be provided for?"

C) "You need to somehow find a way to support your children."

D) "Can the children's mother can get by for a while until you get better?"

Answer:

A) "How is not working right now affecting you?"

Explanation:

According to the norms of responsible parenting, the client should be working to support his family. However due to his condition, he is not working right now. If the nurse would have addressed this problem directly, it could have sounded very negative and hurt the client's sentiments. Since he is already not keeping well, any such negative remark can further make him unwell.

Instead the nurse found a positive way to address this situation. She asked him about his feelings and experiences after quitting the job. In this way she is bringing up the topic of quitting the job but also taking in consideration the client's sentiments. When the client answers this question and the conversation begins, the nurse can subsequently inquire about his family and their financial issue too.

I think the correct answer would be second opinions. Insurance companies would recommend their members to go for second opinions so as to make sure the operation is worth it for them to spend less and wisely. Hope this answers the question.
