Rn HESI Management NGN ( 48 Questions)

A client with life threatening injuries from a gunshot wound to the abdomen is mechanically ventilated and sedated. The client has a large family present who are asking multiple and repetitive questions. Which intervention should the nurse implement first?



Correct Answer: D

Choice A rationale: Paging a chaplain on call can be a supportive measure, but it might  not address the immediate need for communication and coordination with the family.

Choice B rationale: Allowing each family member to ask a question one at a time may   not be the most effective approach when dealing with multiple and repetitive questions.

Choice C rationale: Requesting the healthcare provider to speak with the family might  be appropriate, but it could take time, and the immediate need is to establish effective  communication. 

Choice D rationale: Asking the family to identify a specific spokesperson helps  streamline communication and ensures that information is conveyed more efficiently. This approach can help manage the situation and address the family's concerns  collectively.
