Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The initial home visit includes the nurse's self-identification and clarification of role,establishing rapport with the family,assessing the situation,and then determining the client's expectations.However,without rapport between the nurse and the client,the nurse will be notably less effective at other tasks.Although in some senses the nurse is a guest in the home,the nurse is not there for social purposes but to help the family with health concerns.Building rapport between the nurse and family should occur as the nurse is determining the family's expectations,as well assessing the family and home setting.
