A nurse is providing education to staff on respecting client rights. Which approach MOST supports the client’s autonomy during the decision-making process?
Clients can choose to decline care, while the nurse provides information to ensure they make informed decisions.
Clients are provided with details about their treatment, including its purpose, options, and potential outcomes, empowering them to make informed decisions.
Clients are included in care decisions based on their ability to understand the medical information provided.
Clients are informed of their diagnosis and consider the nurse’s expertise when determining the best course of action.
The correct option ensures that clients are fully informed by providing the necessary details about their treatment, empowering them to make decisions that align with their personal values and preferences. Other options fail to fully respect autonomy: attempting to influence client decisions detracts from their independence, focusing primarily on the nurse’s role rather than the client diminishes collaborative care, and basing involvement on perceived understanding undercuts the principle that all clients have the right to participate in their care.
