A nurse is assessing a client who presents with injuries and signs that may suggest intimate partner violence. Which of the following statements by the client would most likely indicate the need for further assessment and intervention?
"I have bruises from a recent sports injury."
"I'm experiencing stress from work and it's affecting my health."
"I fell down the stairs and injured my arm."
"I often feel afraid at home, but I don't want to talk about it."
The Correct Answer is D
Rationale:
A. Bruises from a sports injury are less likely to indicate intimate partner violence without additional context.
B. Stress from work is a general issue and does not directly suggest intimate partner violence.
C. A fall down the stairs could be an accident; however, further context is needed to assess if this is related to violence.
D. Fear at home and reluctance to discuss it could indicate underlying intimate partner violence, requiring further assessment and intervention.
