  1. Risk factors for self-harm.
   2. Denial of the diagnosis of depression.
   3. The need for assistance with activities of daily living.
   4. Improvement in depression.

4. Improvement in depression.

Rationale:
The client states he has more of a desire to get out of bed and is showering, eating, and contacting family members to talk. These are all indications that the client's depression is improving. This is not an indication of risk for harm, denial of the diagnosis, or the need for assistance with activities of daily living.
