The primary purpose of the Community Mental Health Center Act of 1963 was

A. Maturational: Maturational crises occur during life transitions or developmental stages, such as adolescence or retirement. The client’s response to a sudden loss does not fit this category.
B. Adventitious: Adventitious crises are caused by unexpected or external events, such as natural disasters or violent incidents. The sudden death of a partner fits this category, as it is an unexpected and external event impacting the client’s life.
C. Developmental: Developmental crises involve issues related to developmental stages and transitions. The client’s reaction to a sudden death is not related to developmental stages but rather to an unexpected loss.
D. Situational: Situational crises arise from specific, often unexpected events that disrupt an individual’s life, such as job loss or sudden illness. The sudden death of a partner is more accurately described as an adventitious crisis rather than a situational crisis.

A. Role reversal: Role reversal occurs when individuals switch roles with each other, which is not applicable in this context.
B. Unconditional regard: Unconditional positive regard refers to showing complete acceptance of the client regardless of their actions or behaviors. This term does not describe the phenomenon of the nurse's feelings based on past experiences.
C. Transference: Transference is when a client projects feelings about someone from their past onto the therapist or nurse. This term does not describe the nurse's feelings based on past experiences.
D. Countertransference: Countertransference occurs when a nurse develops feelings toward a client based on the nurse's own past experiences or emotions. This is the correct term for the situation described.
