HESI RN EXIT 3 PROCTORED EXAM
When entering a client's room to administer an 0900 IV antibiotic, the nurse finds that the client is engaged in sexual activity with a visitor. Which action should the nurse implement?
Explanation & Rationale
A. Leave the room and close the door quietly. Respecting the client's privacy is essential. The nurse should leave the room quietly and return later to administer the medication. B. Ignore the behavior and hang the IV antibiotic. Ignoring the behavior and proceeding with the medication administration would violate the client's privacy. C. Complete an unusual occurrence report. This situation does not require an incident report; it is a private matter between the client and the visitor. D. Tell the client to stop the inappropriate behavior. The behavior is not necessarily inappropriate within the context of the client's rights to privacy and intimacy.
