Brunner & Suddarth's Textbook Of Medical-
Surgical Nursing 15th Edition Hinkle


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
PersonalBeliefs. What Is The Nurse's Ethical Obligation To These Clients?
A. The Nurse Should Adhere To Professional Standards Of Practice And Offer
ServiceTo These Clients.
B. The Nurse Should Make The Choice To Decline This Position And Pursue A
DifferentNursing 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
TheNurse’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.

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
DnrStatus.

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 Answers Are Incorrect Because Living Wills Are Not
Always Honored In Every Circumstance, They Are Not Binding For The Duration Of
The Client'sLife, And They Are Not Drawn Up By The Client's Family.

nonmaleficence. discussing a dnr order with a terminally ill client and assisting a
client with adls would not be considered contradictions to the nurse's duty of
