Question 1 of 5
A nurse is caring for a client who has end-stage kidney disease. The client has decided to stop dialysis treatment. Which of the following actions should the nurse take?
Correct Answer: A
Rationale: The nurse must respect the client's autonomy to refuse treatment, supporting their decision and providing end-of-life care resources. Suggesting family discussion, chaplain visits, or alternatives oversteps unless requested by the client.
Question 2 of 5
