MULTIPLE CHOICE
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 client’s considering abortion.
D. The nurse should express alternatives to women considering terminating their pregnancy.
ANSWER >> : 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 client because it is a conflict of personal values. The nurse should
not deny care to these clients as this would be a breach in the Code of Ethics for nurses. If the client is
not requesting information for alternatives to abortions, then the nurse should not be providing this
information.

2. An 80-year-old client is admitted with a diagnosis of community-acquired pneumonia. During
admission the client states, "I have a living will." What implication of this should the nurse recognize?
A. This document is always honored, regardless of circumstances.
B. This document specifies the client's wishes before hospitalization.
C. This document is binding for the duration of the client's life.
D. This document has been drawn up by the client's family to determine DNR status.
ANSWER >> : B
Rationale: A living will is one type of advance directive. In most situations, living wills are limited to
situations in which the client's medical condition is deemed terminal. The other Answer >> wers are
incorrect because living wills are not always honored in every circumstance, they are not binding for
the duration of the client's life, and they are not drawn up by the client's family.

principle of nonmaleficence. Which of the following actions would be considered a violation of this
principle?
A. Discussing a DNR order with a terminally ill client
B. Assisting a semi-independent client with ADLs
C. Refusing to administer pain medication as prescribed
