Chapter 1: Professional Nursing Practice
-? -? -? -?




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




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




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




A. The nurse should adhere to professional standards of practice and offer service
-? -? -? -? -? -? -? -? -? -? -? -




to these clients.
? -? -?




B. The nurse should make the choice to decline this position and pursue a different
-? -? -? -? -? -? -? -? -? -? -? -? -? -




nursing role.
? -?



C. The nurse should decline to care for the clients considering abortion.
-? -? -? -? -? -? -? -? -? -?




D. The nurse should express alternatives to women considering terminating
-? -? -? -? -? -? -? -? -




? theirpregnancy. -?




ANS: B -?




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




nurse’s personal beliefs, the nurse should consider working in an area of nursing
? -? -? -? -? -? -? -? -? -? -? -? -? -




? that would not pose this dilemma. The nurse should not provide care to the
-? -? -? -? -? -? -? -? -? -? -? -? -? -




? clientbecause it is a conflict of personal values. The nurse should not deny care to
-? -? -? -? -? -? -? -? -? -? -? -? -? -? -? -




theseclients as this would be a breach in the Code of Ethics for nurses. If the client is
? -? -? -? -? -? -? -? -? -? -? -? -? -? -? -? -? -? -? -




notrequesting information for alternatives to abortions, then the nurse should
? -? -? -? -? -? -? -? -? -? -? -




? not beproviding this information.
