MULTIPLE CHOICE
1. A Nurse Has Been Offered A Position On An Obstetric Unit And Has Learned That The Unit Offers
TherapeuticAbortions, 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 TheseClients.
B. The Nurse Should Make The Choice To Decline This Position And Pursue A Different
NursingRole.
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. TheNurse 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.

Are Not Binding For The Duration Of The Client's Life, And They Are Not Drawn Up By The
