Question 1 of 5
A nurse is questioning another nurse about whether it is ethical to seclude a client because of loud and intrusive behavior on the unit. Which is the ethical principle that will best guide the nurse's decision on the appropriate use of seclusion?
Correct Answer: C
Rationale: Beneficence is the ethical principle that focuses on doing good and acting in the best interest of the patient. It involves taking actions that promote the well-being of patients and prevent harm. In the context of seclusion beneficence guides the nurse to consider whether secluding the patient will prevent harm to the patient and others thereby promoting overall safety and well-being. Autonomy justice and veracity do not directly address the safety-driven decision for seclusion.
