All of these choices encourage the nurse to approach the family with empathy, respect, and an open mind. Maintaining a nonjudgmental approach and listening to the family's experiences can help build trust by demonstrating that the nurse values their perspective. Acknowledging their strengths can also help to empower the family and promote positive coping strategies. Demonstrating compassion and understanding can foster a sense of connection and support. However, encouraging the family to take a break and permit the nurse to provide care may not necessarily promote trust, as it could be interpreted as suggesting that the family is incapable of providing care.
