  d. Maintain client confidentiality for information that would upset the client if disclosed.

Question 2

You are the nurse trying to get a child to take his medication. The child refuses to take the medicine, saying, I hate this medicine because it tastes yucky. Your best response is:
 
  a. Your daddy and mommy will be upset if you don't take this medicine. Your health care practitioner will be upset with you too.
  b. You will not get well if you don't take this medicine. It is good for you and will make you well again.
  c. Good boys and girls always take their medicine. If you are a good little child, you will take your medicine and Santa will bring you a present.
  d. I understand that the medicine does not taste good and you don't want to take it, but I am so proud of you then you take it and you can be proud of yourself.
