for a patient who speaks and foreign language. A hearing aid is used for the hard of hearing, not for an
aphasic patient.

B, D, A, C - Therapeutic communication techniques are specific responses that encourage the expression
of feelings and ideas and convey acceptance and respect. These techniques apply in a variety of different
situations.
A patient says, "You are the worst nurse I have ever had." Which response by the nurse is most assertive?
a. "I think you have had a hard day."
b. "I feel uncomfortable hearing that statement."
c. "I don't think you should say things like that. It is not right."
d. "I have been checking on you regularly. How can you say that?"
Answer:
B - Assertive responses contain "I" messages such as "I want," "I need," "I think," or "I feel". While all of
these start with "I," the only one that is the most assertive is "I feel uncomfortable hearing that statement."
An assertive nurse communicates self-assurance; communicates feelings; takes responsibility for choices;
and is respectful of others' feelings, ideas, and choices. "I think you've had a hard day" is not addressing
the problem. Arguing ("How can you say that?") is not assertive or therapeutic. Showing disapproval
(using words like 'right' is not assertive or therapeutic.
