NUR 336 - Chapter 35: Sexuality - Nursing Test Banks. Questions and Answers. Rationales Provided. Chapter 35: Sexuality Chapter 35: Sexuality Potter et al.: Fundamentals of Nursing, 9th Edition ... MULTIPLE CHOICE 1. A nurse is caring for a 15-year-old who in the past 6 months has had multiple male and female sexual partners. Which response by the nurse will be most eᴀ洅ective? a. “Sexually transmitted infections and unwanted pregnancy are a real risk. Let’s discuss what you think is the best method for protecting yourself.” b. “Having sexual interaction with both males and females places you at higher risk for STIs. To protect yourself, you need to decide which orientation you are.” c. “Your current friends are leading you to make poor choices. You should ᴀ밄nd new friends to hang out with.” d. “I think it’s best to notify your parents. They know what’s best for you and can help make sure you practice safe sex.” ANS: A Some adolescents participate in risky behaviors. The nurse should acknowledge this feeling to the patient and oᴀ洅er education and alternatives, while giving the patient the autonomy to make his or her own decisions. Adolescents who engage in sexual risk behaviors experience negative health outcomes such as STIs and unintended pregnancy. In addition, the pattern of risk-taking behavior tends to be established and continue throughout life. The nurse should not force the patient to make a choice of orientation and should not pass judgment on a patient’s sexual orientation or social network; this would make the patient feel defensive and would eliminate the trust in the relationship. Involving parents is not the ᴀ밄rst line of action; parents should be notiᴀ밄ed only if the child is in a life or death situation. [Show More]
