QUESTION

Which of the following demonstrates the use of the caring process?

a. Respecting the uniqueness of every client
b. Problem solving for the client
c. Performing tasks for the client
d. Communicating expectations of the health care team

ANSWER:

ANS: A
Caring is described as a commitment by the nurse that involves profound respect and concern for the unique humanity of every client and a willingness to confirm the client’s personhood. Caring is demonstrated by problem-solving with the client, not for the client. Encouraging self-care empowers the client. The nurse needs to respond to the client’s expectations for health care.
