Question 3 of 5
A nurse is conducting an orientation program for a group of newly hired nurses. As part of the program, the nurse is reviewing the issue of informed consent. The nurse determines that the teaching was effective when the group identifies which situation as a violation of informed consent?
Correct Answer: A
Rationale: In most states, only clients over the age of 18 can legally provide consent for health care. Serving as a witness to the signature process, asking whether the client understands what she is signing, and getting verbal consent over the phone for emergency procedures are all key to informed consent and are not violations.
Question 4 of 5
The parents of a male newborn ask the nurse whether they should have their son circumcised. The nurse ‘s most appropriate response would be:
Correct Answer: B
Rationale: The most appropriate response for the nurse in this situation is to encourage open discussion between the parents and the doctor regarding the decision to circumcise their son. This allows the parents to make an informed decision based on their beliefs, values, and medical advice provided by the healthcare provider. It is important for parents to have all the necessary information and support to make the best decision for their child's well-being. The decision to circumcise is a personal one and should be made after careful consideration and consultation with a healthcare professional.
