Answer to Question 1
Answer: A
Nurses must develop skills of assertiveness to deter sexual harassment in the workplace. Telling the coworker to stop, and why, is the first step in putting an end to the situation. Ignoring the situation or asking to be scheduled opposite this individual is not addressing the situation in an assertive manner. Reporting the incident to the nurse manager would be a second step if the behavior doesn't stop after the nurse's approach.
Answer to Question 2
Answer: B
The nurse would anticipate that most young adults will be embarrassed by this procedure when the nurse and young client are of different genders. When the client states that the doctor could perform the enema, the client is probably acting on embarrassment and on the assumption that the doctor is male. The nurse should approach the client beforehand to address the issue. Most clients would only experience annoyance, not fear for this procedure. A client who has never experienced an enema is exhibiting a lack of knowledge, which is not usually the case for a 21-year-old; most people of that age have experienced an enema. The nurse would definitely not expect the client to request the presence of another individual in the room for an intimate procedure.
