1. Which statement indicates that the individual feels EMPATHY for the patient?

• D. I think he is exaggerating his pain to get attention

Correct answer: A

Rationale: Choice A, 'I am also new to this town, so I understand how lost he feels here,' demonstrates empathy towards the patient by showing the ability to relate to and understand the patient's feelings and experiences. Empathy involves understanding and sharing the feelings of another person, which is evident in this statement as the individual acknowledges and connects with the patient's emotional state. Choice B focuses on the urgency of addressing symptoms but lacks the emotional connection present in an empathetic response. Choice C emphasizes following a treatment plan without addressing the patient's emotional state. Choice D displays a lack of empathy by suggesting that the patient is exaggerating their pain for attention, showing a judgmental rather than understanding attitude.
