ATI NURS 340 Leadership and Public Health Exam Questions
Extract:
Question 1 of 5
The nurse learns that a family has declined an elective medical intervention for a health care problem because paying for the care would drastically reduce the family's resources and ability to meet the needs of other family members. Ethically, which of the following actions should be taken by the nurse?
Correct Answer: A
Rationale: The correct answer is A: Appreciate that the family has made the decision that it feels is best and take no further action if it is clear the family has made an informed choice. This option respects the autonomy and decision-making ability of the family. The nurse should acknowledge the family's autonomy and respect their decision-making process. Pressuring the family or trying to convince them to change their decision would not be ethically appropriate as it undermines their autonomy. Options B, C, and D involve imposing the nurse's own beliefs or values on the family, which is not respectful or ethical. The nurse should support the family in making informed decisions that align with their values and beliefs.
