Question 1 of 5
A nurse is providing teaching for a client who has major depressive disorder and is seeking voluntary admission to an acute mental health facility. Which of the following statements should the nurse include?
Correct Answer: C
Rationale: The correct answer is C: "You will still need to give informed consent for treatments after admission." This statement is important to include in teaching because even after being admitted to a mental health facility, the client retains the right to give informed consent for any treatments or interventions. It emphasizes the client's autonomy and involvement in decision-making regarding their care.
The other options are incorrect:
A: "You will give up your right to refuse antidepressant medications upon admission." This statement is incorrect as the client still has the right to refuse specific treatments even after admission.
B: "Your provider is required to notify your employer of your admission." This statement is incorrect as confidentiality laws protect the client's privacy and do not require notification to the employer.
D: "You cannot leave the facility until your provider completes a discharge summary." This statement is incorrect as the client has the right to leave the facility against medical advice, although there may be consequences or processes to follow.
