Which client would be a candidate for Electroconvulsive Therapy (ECT)?

A. While adolescents may have a high rate of suicide attempts, their attempts are not typically as fatal as those in older adults. This is often due to less lethal methods being used, lower intent, and less access to means. Suicide attempts among adolescents tend to have a lower success rate compared to older adults.
B. Young adults also have a notable rate of suicide attempts, but the lethality of these attempts is generally lower compared to older adults. The methods used by young adults may not be as immediately fatal or decisive as those used by older adults.
C. Older adults have a higher success rate in suicide attempts, with a significant portion of attempts resulting in death. One reason for this is that older adults are more likely to use highly lethal methods, such as firearms or overdoses of medication. Additionally, older adults may have a more determined intent to die, and their methods are often more effective at causing death.
D. Middle-aged adults do have a significant rate of suicide attempts, and their attempts are more likely to be fatal than those of adolescents or young adults. However, the success rate is still generally lower than that of older adults.

A. While this is positive reinforcement, it doesn't directly address the client's expression of gratitude. It's important to acknowledge the client's feelings first.
B. This response avoids the client's expression of gratitude and shifts the focus to the nurse.
C. This response acknowledges the client's expression of gratitude and opens up a dialogue about their feelings about discharge. It allows the nurse to provide support and address any concerns the client might have.
D. This response assumes the client's feelings and doesn't allow for the expression of other emotions. The client might not be excited about discharge for various reasons.
