MULTIPLE CHOICE b2de




1. A nurse has been offered a position on an obstetric unit and has learned that the
b2de b2de b2de b2de b2de b2de b2de b2de b2de b2de b2de b2de b2de b2de b2de


unit offers therapeutic abortions, a procedure that contradicts the nurse's personal
b2de b2de b2de b2de b2de b2de b2de b2de b2de b2de b2de


beliefs. What is the nurse's ethical obligation to these clients?
b2de b2de b2de b2de b2de b2de b2de b2de b2de b2de


A. The nurse should adhere to professional standards of practice and offer
b2de b2de b2de b2de b2de b2de b2de b2de b2de b2de


service to these clients.
b2de b2de b2de b2de


B. The nurse should make the choice to decline this position and pursue a
b2de b2de b2de b2de b2de b2de b2de b2de b2de b2de b2de b2de


different nursing role.
b2de b2de b2de


C. The nurse should decline to care for the client’s considering abortion.
b2de b2de b2de b2de b2de b2de b2de b2de b2de b2de


D. The nurse should express alternatives to women considering terminating their pregnancy.
b2de b2de b2de b2de b2de b2de b2de b2de b2de b2de




ANS: B b 2 d e


Rationale: To avoid facing the ethical dilemma of providing care that contradicts the
b2de b2de b2de b2de b2de b2de b2de b2de b2de b2de b2de b2de


nurse’s personal beliefs, the nurse should consider working in an area of nursing that
b2de b2de b2de b2de b2de b2de b2de b2de b2de b2de b2de b2de b2de b2de


would not pose this dilemma. The nurse should not provide care to the client
b2de b2de b2de b2de b2de b2de b2de b2de b2de b2de b2de b2de b2de b2de


because it is a conflict of personal values. The nurse should not deny care to
b2de b2de b2de b2de b2de b2de b2de b2de b2de b2de b2de b2de b2de b2de b2de


these clients as this would be a breach in the Code of Ethics for nurses. If the
b2de b2de b2de b2de b2de b2de b2de b2de b2de b2de b2de b2de b2de b2de b2de b2de b2de


client is not requesting information for alternatives to abortions, then the nurse
b2de b2de b2de b2de b2de b2de b2de b2de b2de b2de b2de b2de


should not be providing this information.

2. An 80-year-old client is admitted with a diagnosis of community-acquired pneumonia.
b2de b2de b2de b2de b2de b2de b2de b2de b2de b2de


During admission the client states, "I have a living will." What implication of this
b2de b2de b2de b2de b2de b2de b2de b2de b2de b2de b2de b2de b2de b2de


should the nurse recognize?
b2de b2de b2de b2de


A. This document is always honored, regardless of circumstances.
b2de b2de b2de b2de b2de b2de b2de


B. This document specifies the client's wishes before hospitalization.
b2de b2de b2de b2de b2de b2de b2de


C. This document is binding for the duration of the client's life.
b2de b2de b2de b2de b2de b2de b2de b2de b2de b2de


D. This document has been drawn up by the client's family to determine DNR status.
b2de b2de b2de b2de b2de b2de b2de b2de b2de b2de b2de b2de b2de




ANS: B b 2 d e


Rationale: A living will is one type of advance directive. In most situations, living
b2de b2de b2de b2de b2de b2de b2de b2de b2de b2de b2de b2de b2de


wills are limited to situations in which the client's medical condition is deemed
b2de b2de b2de b2de b2de b2de b2de b2de b2de b2de b2de b2de b2de


terminal. The other answers are incorrect because living wills are not always
b2de b2de b2de b2de b2de b2de b2de b2de b2de b2de b2de b2de


honored in every circumstance, they are not binding for the duration of the client's
b2de b2de b2de b2de b2de b2de b2de b2de b2de b2de b2de b2de b2de b2de


life, and they are not drawn up by the client's family.

3. A nurse has been providing ethical care for many years and is aware of the need to
b2de b2de b2de b2de b2de b2de b2de b2de b2de b2de b2de b2de b2de b2de b2de b2de


maintain the ethical principle of nonmaleficence. Which of the following actions
b2de b2de b2de b2de b2de b2de b2de b2de b2de b2de b2de


would be considered a violation of this principle?
b2de b2de b2de b2de b2de b2de b2de b2de


A. Discussing a DNR order with a terminally ill client b2de b2de b2de b2de b2de b2de b2de b2de
