Effexor 150 po daily for depression is ordered. On hand, the nurse has Effexor 37.5 mg tablets. How many tablets will the nurse administer?

Enter answer as a number only.

The nurse’s ability to listen and observe the client’s verbal and non-verbal messages. Effective communication in the mental health setting requires the nurse to actively listen to the client and to pay close attention to their verbal and non-verbal cues. By doing so, the nurse can better understand the client’s needs and concerns and can provide appropriate support and guidance.

While the nurse’s understanding of mental health disorders (b) and their relationship with the client (d) can also play a role in effective communication, the ability to listen and observe is a fundamental skill that is essential for effective therapeutic communication. The client’s ability to communicate (a) is also important, but it is ultimately the nurse’s responsibility to use effective communication techniques to facilitate the therapeutic process.

In a Mental Status Examination (MSE), thinking/content of thought is one of the key areas assessed. It refers to the content and process of a person's thoughts. The examiner will evaluate whether the person's thinking is coherent, organized, and logical, or if it is fragmented, disorganized, or delusional. They will also look for evidence of hallucinations, obsessions, or compulsions.

Speech and ability to communicate (a) are also assessed in the MSE, but they focus more on how the person expresses themselves, rather than the content of their thoughts. Judgment (b) refers to a person's ability to make decisions and solve problems, and memory (c) is the ability to recall past events and information. While both areas are important to assess in a mental health evaluation, they do not specifically focus on what the person is thinking.
