A nurse is talking with a patient, and 5 minutes remain in the session. This patient has been silent most of the session. Another patient interrupts and says to the nurse, I really need to talk to you. The nurse should:
 
  a. invite the interrupting patient to join the session with the current patient.
  b. tell the interrupting patient, This session is 5 more minutes, then I will talk with you.
  c. say to the interrupting patient, I am not available to talk with you at the present time.
  d. end the unproductive session with the current patient. Spend time with the next patient.

B
When a specific duration for sessions has been set, the nurse must adhere to the schedule. Leaving the first patient would be abandonment and may destroy trust the patient had in the nurse. Adhering to the contract demonstrates that the nurse can be trusted and that the patient and the sessions are important. The distracters violate terms of the contract.
