A pediatric nurse is creating a care plan for a 10-year-old client who requires a prolonged hospital stay. To best support the client's mastery of their current psychosocial developmental stage according to Erikson, which intervention should the nurse prioritize?

  1. Facilitate time and provide resources for the client to complete their school assignments.Cevap
  2. B
    Reassure the client frequently that the hospitalization is not a punishment for previous bad behavior.
  3. C
    Offer push-pull toys and large building blocks for physical play during activity periods.
  4. D
    Provide extended periods of unmonitored privacy for the client to explore their future career identity.

Cevap

The correct intervention is to facilitate time and provide resources for the client to complete their school assignments.
According to Erikson's theory of psychosocial development, a 10-year-old child is in the stage of Industry versus Inferiority. Children in this stage are heavily focused on learning, mastering new skills, and achieving a sense of competence. Providing time and resources for the client to continue their schoolwork helps them maintain their academic progress, achieve tangible goals, and successfully navigate this developmental stage despite being hospitalized.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1
Identify the client's age and applicable developmental stage.
The client is 10 years old, placing them in the school-age category.
Nursing interventions must be specifically tailored to the client's current age group to be effective.
2
Apply Erikson's theory of psychosocial development to the identified age.
A 10-year-old child is navigating the 'Industry versus Inferiority' stage.
Understanding the core developmental task helps the nurse select the most supportive clinical intervention.
3
Evaluate the options based on which one best supports the psychological goal of industry.
Continuing schoolwork allows the child to achieve tasks, learn, and feel competent, directly supporting the task of industry.
This aligns the nursing intervention with the primary psychological needs of the school-aged client during a disruptive hospitalization.
