Option B

Explanation:

Options for the question are

A "Why do you feel it is too hard?"

B "Let me re-read the teaching material to you."

C "What is it that you don't understand?"

D "Let me break it down in smaller steps."

Solution -

The questions of client make it clear that he/she is unable to understand the instructions given by nurse and due to this he/she is experiencing anxiety and panic seizures. The nurse must realize that she is required to give instruction is a much simpler language and manner so that it is easily understandable. Therefore, the nurse must re - read the instructions.

If she in any case starts questioning or inquiring further the cause of not understanding the instruction give earlier would lead to enhancement of anxiety

Hence, option B is correct
