The nurse is planning a new sexuality group. Which location would best enhance the effectiveness of this group?
a. A unit conference room
b. The hospital's auditorium
c. The unit day (living) room
d. A corner of the music therapy room
A
The conference room would provide a quiet, private area with few distractions, separate from other patient areas and effective for teaching and learning about a private topic. The auditorium is too large, and members' anxiety or lack of trust might lead them to spread out too far from each other, interfering with group process. The day room and the music therapy room are too busy and exposed, reducing privacy and increasing distractions.
