A nurse in the inpatient unit says to the client, I want to speak to you about the drugs you are taking, particularly the antipsychotic ones. After the client walks away without interacting, the nurse asks another nurse for suggestions.
 
  Which of the following would help the nurse improve this interaction? Standard Text: Select all that apply. 1. Use the word medication instead of drugs.
  2. Explain that you want to talk with the client not to the client.
  3. Set up an appointment with the client at least a day in advance of the discussion.
  4. State the name of the medication instead of the word antipsychotic.
  5. Have the psychiatrist speak with the client about medications since this is not a nursing role.

Rationale: Use the word medication instead of drugs. The word drugs often connotes negative images of illegal drug use. The word medication is used in the treatment of people with physical illnesses as well as mental illnesses.
