A nurse is caring for a client who is comatose and has advance directives that indicate the client does not want life-sustaining measures. The client's family wants the client to have life-sustaining measures. Which of the following actions should the nurse take?

A. Arrange for an ethics committee meeting to address the family’s concerns: When there is a conflict between advance directives and family wishes, an ethics committee can help mediate and ensure the client’s legal rights and wishes are upheld while addressing the family's concerns. B. Support the family's decision and initiate life-sustaining measures: Following the family’s request instead of the client’s legally documented advance directives violates the client’s autonomy and can result in legal and ethical consequences. C. Complete an incident report: An incident report is used for errors or unexpected events, not for resolving ethical conflicts involving advance directives and treatment decisions. D. Encourage the family to contact an attorney: While the family has the right to seek legal counsel, the nurse's role is to advocate for the client's documented wishes and follow institutional procedures for resolving disputes.
