A nurse is providing first aid to a client who has a deep cut on his arm from a kitchen knife. The client says, "I don't want you to touch me or put anything on my wound." How should the nurse respond?



Correct Answer: C

Choice A Reason: This response is incorrect because it does not respect the client's right to refuse first aid and may sound threatening or coercive.

Choice B Reason: This response is incorrect because it does not acknowledge the client's concern or consent and may sound dismissive or paternalistic.

Choice C Reason: This response is correct because it respects the client's right to refuse first aid and informs them of the risks of refusing care. It's your right to refuse first aid, but I need to explain the possible consequences of your decision. This response respects the client's autonomy and informs them of the risks of refusing care.

Choice D Reason: This response is incorrect because it does not address the client's concern or consent and may sound arrogant or condescending.
