Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The nurse should first explain to the client that abuse screening is now part of all interactions with women, as this will help the client understand why they are being asked about abuse and make them more comfortable with the process. Offering information about referrals and follow-up services, discussing the common health effects of woman abuse, and stating that reporting is mandatory can all come later in the conversation.
