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

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

principle?
