Question 1 of 5

A nurse is caring for a client in the emergency department who states she was beaten and sexually assaulted by her partner. After a rapid assessment, which of the following actions should the nurse plan to take next?

Correct Answer: A

Rationale: The correct answer is A: Conduct a pregnancy test. This action is important to assess the client's risk of pregnancy resulting from the sexual assault. Pregnancy testing is crucial for timely decision-making regarding emergency contraception. This step is a priority in the care of a sexual assault survivor. It ensures appropriate medical intervention and support for the client's physical and emotional well-being.

Summary of other choices:
B: Requesting mental health consultation is important but not the immediate next step.
C: Providing a trained advocate is valuable for support but does not address the urgent medical needs of the client.
D: Offering prophylactic medication for STIs is important but not the immediate next step before assessing pregnancy risk.
E: This choice is unrelated to the situation described and should not be considered in this context.
