After any discussion about genetic risk or genetic testing,the nurse would assess the client's understanding of what was said and how the information may affect decisions in the future.The client may not be in the grieving process at this time.The nurse does not have to ask the client to explain each term after the session.However,the nurse should have encouraged the client to ask questions throughout the session.Although it is important to assess coping in the client,this is usually done after understanding is assessed.Support can then be offered to the client.
