The son of an elderly client with obsessive-compulsive disorder tells the nurse that he wants to contact the fire department to report his mother since the house is nothing but boxes and bags of saved items.
 
  The most appropriate nursing diagnosis for this situation would be: 1. Ineffective Coping.
   2. Anxiety.
   3. Deficient Knowledge.
   4. Risk for Caregiver Role Strain.

4. Risk for Caregiver Role Strain.

Rationale:
The son is experiencing anxiety about the client's obsessive-compulsive behavior, which indicates a risk for caregiver role strain. There is not enough information to determine whether or not the client or son is experiencing Ineffective coping, Anxiety, or Deficient knowledge.
