The nurse has been caring for a client with a diagnosis of depression. the client says to the nurse, "i wish you would just be my friend.' the appropriate response by the nurse is:

She could say something like, I can be your friend but I'm sure you have other friends who are much closer to you.  But we can talk while you are here.  The nurse needs to make the patient feel like she is important and take time to really listen to her.

Imma gonna say go with the very first answer (:
