Question text
A nurse is performing initial teaching with a client who will be receiving electroconvulsive
therapy (ECT). Which statement by the client indicates a need for further teaching?
Select one:
a. “I will stop taking my lithium for 2 weeks prior to my procedure.”

procedure.

Question text
A daughter of a client with a terminal illness pulls a nurse to the side and says, “Although my

save her if she has a cardiac arrest.” How should the nurse respond?
Select one:
a. “I will contact the provider to make him aware of your request.”
b. “Since the living will is a legal document a lawyer will have to make the changes.”
c. “If your mother has a cardiac arrest, we will begin resuscitation if you wish.”
d. “The living will documents your mother’s wishes and must be followed.”
A living will is a document that expresses the client’s wishes regarding medical treatment in
the event the client becomes incapacitated and is facing end-of-life issues. The client’s
wishes should be followed by the health care provider.

Question text
A provider informs the wife of a comatose client with terminal cancer that she will need to
sign the consent for insertion of a gastrostomy feeding tube. The nurse knows this is against
the client’s wishes. What is the appropriate action by the nurse?
Select one:
a. Prepare the consent for the wife to sign.
b. Inform the wife she cannot sign the consent
c. Consult the hospital’s ethics committee.

and often difficult issues related to client care. Any nurse can consult the hospital’s
ethics committee when deemed necessary.
