Including the client addresses as blind copies (BCC) will hide them from the recipients of the email. This protects the privacy of the clients and prevents their email addresses from being visible to others on the distribution list. Including the nurse practitioner's email address as the primary recipient will ensure that the message is sent to all individuals on the list. Option A is not appropriate because it exposes all email addresses to all recipients. Option B is not practical if the nurse practitioner needs to communicate with a large number of clients. Option D is also not appropriate because it shows the recipients' email addresses to everyone, which may not be appropriate for privacy reasons.
