Question 9 :

A nurse is caring for a client in the emergency department who states that she was beaten and sexually assaulted by her partner. After a rapid assessment, which of the following actions should the nurse plan to take next?



Correct Answer: D

The nurse should provide a trained advocate to stay with the  client, as this can help reduce the psychological trauma and provide emotional support and  information to the client. The other options are also important, but they can be done later  or after obtaining the client's consent.
