. A nurse’s identification badge includes the term, “Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse.” A client with a history of paranoia asks, “What does that title mean?” The nurse responds best by answering: A. “Don’t be afraid; it means I’m here to help, not hurt, you.” B. “Psychiatric mental health nurses care for people with mental illnesses.” C. “We have the specialized skills needed to care for those with mental illnesses.” D. “The nurses who work in mental health facilities have that title.”
C. “We have the specialized skills needed to care for those with mental illnesses.” A psychiatric mental health nurse has specialized nursing skills and implements the nursing process to manage and deliver nursing care to the mentally ill. The remaining options either do not effectively answer the client’s question or assume that the question is the result of the client’s paranoia.

When the mental health nurse visits a client at home, the client states, “I haven’t slept at all the last couple of nights.” Which response by the nurse illustrates a therapeutic communication response to this client? 1. “I see.” 2. “Really?” 3. “You’re having difficulty sleeping?” 4. “Sometimes, I have trouble sleeping too.”
3. “You’re having difficulty sleeping?” Rationale: The correct option uses the therapeutic communication technique of restatement. Although restatement is a technique that has a prompting component to it, it repeats the client’s major theme, which assists the nurse to obtain a more specific perception of the problem from the client. The remaining options are not therapeutic responses since none encourage the client to expand on the problem. Offering personal experiences moves the focus away from the client and onto the nurse.

When a nursing student expresses concerns about how mental health nurses “lose all their nursing skills,” the best response by the mental health nurse is: a. “Psychiatric nurses practice in safer environments than other specialties. Nurse-to-patient ratios must be better because of the nature of the patients’ problems.” b. “Psychiatric nurses use complex communication skills as well as critical thinking to solve multidimensional problems. I am challenged by those situations.” c. “That’s a misconception. Psychiatric nurses frequently use high technology monitoring equipment and manage complex intravenous therapies.” d. “Psychiatric nurses do not have to deal with as much pain and suffering as medical-surgical nurses do. That appeals to me.”
