  3. "It was good to meet you today, so please keep in touch."
  4. "Our time is up now, so I have to go to my next client."

Correct answer: "We have a few minutes left, so let's review our goals and supports."

The nurse warns the client that the interaction is ending and reviews goals and supports. Phrases such as "see you later" suggest termination is temporary.
