A nurse is assisting in the care of a client. Nurses' Notes

2000:

The client presents to the emergency department and states, "I have been assaulted." The client was immediately placed in a treatment

room. 2015:

"The client states they were out with friends this evening and had "a little too much to drink." The client states that they fell asleep at their friend's house and when they woke up all of their clothes were off and their genitals were sore. The client states, "I think someone had sex with me, but I don't remember anything." The client reports a history of depression. The client is a full-time college student who lives with roommates. The client admits to drinking socially but denies illicit drug use and tobacco use.

Which of the following interventions should the nurse plan to implement? Select all that apply.

The AIMS is specifically designed to assess for the presence and severity of abnormal involuntary movements, which can be a side effect of long-term antipsychotic medication use, including tardive dyskinesia. It consists of a series of standardized movements and observations that assess different body regions for abnormal movements. The nurse can use this tool to monitor the client's movements and identify any signs of tardive dyskinesia.

A. Mental Status Examination (MSE): The MSE is a comprehensive assessment of a client's mental status, including their cognition, mood, and thought processes. While the MSE is an important tool in assessing overall mental health, it is not specific to tardive dyskinesia.
C. Patient Health Questionnaire-9 (PHQ-9): The PHQ-9 is a screening tool for depression that assesses the severity of depressive symptoms. While depression can be a comorbidity in individuals with schizophrenia, the PHQ-9 does not directly assess for tardive dyskinesia.
D. Brief Psychiatric Rating Scale (BPRS): The BPRS is a rating scale used to assess the severity of psychiatric symptoms in individuals with mental disorders. While it is useful in evaluating overall symptomatology in schizophrenia, it does not specifically target tardive dyskinesia.

Promoting trust involves actions that build a sense of trust and rapport between the nurse and the client. In this scenario, the nurse recognizes the client's basic need for food and responds to it promptly and compassionately. By interrupting the bath to address the client's hunger, the nurse demonstrates attentiveness and care, which helps establish trust between the nurse and the client.

B. Countertransference refers to the nurse's emotional reaction or response to the client, which may be based on the nurse's personal experiences or unresolved issues. It does not apply to the nurse's action of obtaining a meal for the client.

C. Veracity refers to truthfulness and honesty. While the nurse's action can be seen as honest and caring, it does not specifically relate to the concept of veracity.

D. Boundary crossing refers to a situation where the nurse exceeds the established professional boundaries with the client. In this scenario, the nurse's action of obtaining a meal for the client can be seen as a minor deviation from the routine care but is not considered a significant boundary crossing.
