Final answer:

The newly licensed nurse needs further teaching on promoting a client's sense of control through establishing a schedule.

Step-by-step explanation:

The correct statement that indicates a need for further teaching is option A: "I can promote my client's sense of control by establishing a schedule."

While establishing a schedule can be beneficial for some clients, individuals with personality disorders often struggle with rigidity and feeling controlled. It is important to provide them with a sense of autonomy and involve them in decision-making to promote their sense of control. Limit-setting is also crucial to prevent manipulation and maintain professional boundaries.

Examples of statements that demonstrate understanding and do not require further teaching are:

  • B. "Self-assessment will help me cope with emotional reactions to client care."
  • C. "I should practice limit-setting to help prevent client manipulation."
  • D. "Maintaining professional boundaries is a priority of client care."
