A client has just been served divorce papers from a spouse. the client has no financial resources and little social support. the client states, "my spouse is not really leaving. my spouse will be back." the most appropriate response by the nurse would be what?
"I understand that is how you feel at the moment. But whether or not your spouse returns to you, right now we should focus on getting you working, healthy, and independent. That is guaranteed to be good for you no matter what!"
