Question 3 of 5
During a routine physical examination for a 52-year-old Caucasian male, the client declines to have his prostate gland examined. He states he does not have a family history and does not feel he is at risk. What initial response by the nurse is most appropriate?
Correct Answer: C
Rationale: The need for prostate screening begins at age 50. Individuals with risk factors should begin screening at age 45. The client's age places him at an increased risk, so he should begin the screening process. While the client may refuse any testing, this does not allow the client to engage in secondary levels of prevention. The client's refusal should be recorded but not used as coercion.
