MULTIPLE CHOICE a
1. A nurse has been offered a position on an obstetric unit and has learned that the unit offers therapeutic
a a a a a a a a a a a a a a a a a a
abortions, a procedure that contradicts the nurse's personal beliefs. What is the nurse's ethical
a a a a a a a a a a a a a a
obligation to these clients?
a a a a
A. The nurse should adhere to professional standards of practice and offer service to these
a a a a a a a a a a a a a
clients. a
B. The nurse should make the choice to decline this position and pursue a different nursing
a a a a a a a a a a a a a a
role. a
C. The nurse should decline to care for the client’s considering abortion.
a a a a a a a a a a
D. The nurse should express alternatives to women considering terminating their pregnancy.
a a a a a a a a a a
ANS: B a
Rationale: To avoid facing the ethical dilemma of providing care that contradicts the nurse’s personal
a a a a a a a a a a a a a a
beliefs, the nurse should consider working in an area of nursing that would not pose this dilemma. The
a a a a a a a a a a a a a a a a a a
nurse should not provide care to the client because it is a conflict of personal values. The nurse should
a a a a a a a a a a a a a a a a a a a
not deny care to these clients as this would be a breach in the Code of Ethics for nurses. If the client is
a a a a a a a a a a a a a a a a a a a a a a a
not requesting information for alternatives to abortions, then the nurse should not be providing this
a a a a a a a a a a a a a a a
information.

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

a a a a a a a a a a a a a a a a a a a

a a a a a a a a a a a a a a a
