Ans: A
Closure is the last phase, the end of the home visit. It is a time to summarize and clarify important points. The nurse should also schedule any additional visits and reiterate client expectations between visits. The greeting phase establishes the communication process and atmosphere for the visit. The focus of the visit is accomplished next. The third phase, implementation of service, uses most of the visit time and addresses the purpose of the visit.
