MULTIPLE CHOICE p




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


abortions, a procedure that contradicts the nurse's personal beliefs. What is the nurse's ethical
p p p p p p p p p p p p p p


obligation to these clients?
p p p p


A. The nurse should adhere to professional standards of practice and offer service to these
p p p p p p p p p p p p p


clients. p


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


role. p


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


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




ANS: B
Rationale: To avoid facing the ethical dilemma of providing care that contradicts the nurse’s personal
p p p p p p p p p p p p p p


beliefs, the nurse should consider working in an area of nursing that would not pose this dilemma. The
p p p p p p p p p p p p p p p p p p


nurse should not provide care to the client because it is a conflict of personal values. The nurse should
p p p p p p p p p p p p p p p p p p p


not deny care to these clients as this would be a breach in the Code of Ethics for nurses. If the client is
p p p p p p p p p p p p p p p p p p p p p p p


not requesting information for alternatives to abortions, then the nurse should not be providing this
p p p p p p p p p p p p p p p


information.

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


admission the client states, "I have a living will." What implication of this should the nurse recognize?
p p p p p p p p p p p p p p p p p


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


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


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


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




ANS: B
Rationale: A living will is one type of advance directive. In most situations, living wills are limited to
p p p p p p p p p p p p p p p p p


situations in which the client's medical condition is deemed terminal. The other answers are incorrect
p p p p p p p p p p p p p p p


because living wills are not always honored in every circumstance, they are not binding for the
p p p p p p p p p p p p p p p p


duration of the client's 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 maintain the ethical
p p p p p p p p p p p p p p p p p p p


principle of nonmaleficence. Which of the following actions would be considered a violation of this
p p p p p p p p p p p p p p p


principle?
