1. Stand next to the client and use therapeutic touch.

2. Sit in the chair across from the client and use silence.

The nurse is working at a day program for teenagers. At lunchtime, the nurse observed that one client was sitting alone at a table away from the other clients. The client has her head bowed down. She surveys the room frequently but does not make eye contact with anyone. What is the best nursing intervention in this situation?

3. Invite the client to come and sit with you and the other clients at the main table.

4. Sit in the chair beside the client and ask her if she wants to talk with you.
