MULTIPLE CHOICE
1. A patient says to the nurse, I dreamed I was stoned. When I woke up, I felt emotionally
drained, as though I hadnt rested well. Which response should the nurse use to clarify the
patients comment?
a. It sounds as though you were uncomfortable with the content of your dream.
b. I understand what youre saying. Bad dreams leave me feeling tired, too.
c. So you feel as though you did not get enough quality sleep last night?
d. Can you give me an example of what you mean by stoned?
ANSWER: D
The technique of clarification is therapeutic and helps the nurse examine the meaning of the
patients statement. Asking for a definition of stoned directly asks for clarification. Restating that
the patient is uncomfortable with the dreams content is parroting, a non-therapeutic technique.
The other responses fail to clarify the meaning of the patients comment.
