Extract:
Question 1 of 5
A nurse asks a client if they prefer to attend the morning or afternoon group therapy session. The nurse should identify that this as an example of which of the following ethical principles?
Correct Answer: A
Rationale: The correct answer is A: Autonomy. Autonomy refers to respecting the client's right to make their own decisions. In this scenario, the nurse is allowing the client to choose between morning or afternoon group therapy, which empowers the client and respects their autonomy. This aligns with ethical principles that prioritize individual choice and self-determination. The other options are not directly related to the client's right to make choices. Justice focuses on fairness in distribution of resources, beneficence on doing good for the client, and nonmaleficence on avoiding harm. In this case, autonomy best describes the nurse's action.
