Adım Adım Çözüm

1
Review the therapeutic communication techniques listed on the left.
The techniques are Reflecting, Clarifying, Broad opening, and Using silence.
Understanding the definitions of these basic techniques is necessary to identify them in clinical practice.
2
Analyze the nurse's statement: 'You are feeling angry because the healthcare provider did not visit.'
This pairs with Reflecting.
The nurse is mirroring the client's expressed feelings back to them to validate their emotion without offering advice.
3
Analyze the nurse's statement: 'I am not sure I understand. Can you explain...'
This pairs with Clarifying.
The nurse is seeking further explanation for a vague or unclear statement to prevent misinterpretation.
4
Analyze the remaining two clinical examples.
The open-ended question asking the client what to discuss pairs with Broad opening. Sitting quietly with a crying client pairs with Using silence.
A broad opening hands the control of the conversation to the client, while silence provides a supportive, non-verbal presence for emotional processing.
