After educating a new nurse about how to approach a victim of human trafficking, which of the following topics, if verbalized by the nurse, would indicate the need for additional instruction?
Asking the client if they are comfortable calling 9-1-1
A nurse-client dialogue about specific steps the client can take to stay safe
Insisting that the client act on the plan the next time their safety is threatened
A nurse-client dialogue about the potential barriers to safety
The Correct Answer is C
Rationale:
A. Asking the client if they are comfortable calling 9-1-1 is an appropriate action. It involves assessing the client's readiness and comfort level in seeking emergency help.
B. A nurse-client dialogue about specific steps the client can take to stay safe is important for empowering the client with knowledge and strategies for protection.
C. Insisting that the client act on the plan the next time their safety is threatened may be inappropriate as it can impose undue pressure on the client, who might feel trapped or fearful. The nurse should support the client's choices and provide options rather than insist on actions.
D. A nurse-client dialogue about the potential barriers to safety is crucial for understanding and addressing obstacles that might prevent the client from seeking help or staying safe.
