Management of CareQuestion 1025 of 2368
A client is at the first prenatal visit with family members in the room. Which action by the nurse best protects the client's privacy?
- Review the number of prior pregnancies aloud to confirm the history with the family.
- Use caution when discussing past pregnancies and childbirths in front of others.
- Ask the family to answer questions about prior pregnancy losses.
- Document gravidity and parity in a visible place in the room.
Show answer
Correct answer: Use caution when discussing past pregnancies and childbirths in front of others.
A past pregnancy may not be known to the family. Probing questions in front of others could break the client's privacy.
