Mrs. Brown tells the RPN that she lied to her doctor when he asked whether she has ever had any children. She gave birth to a baby ten years ago and placed the child up for adoption. Mrs. Brown’s current illness is not related to any reproductive problems. Ethically, what is the practical nurse’s best action? 24 options: Maintain confidentiality by telling Mrs. Brown that the information will not affect her present illness but if she is worried about it, perhaps she should discuss this with her doctor. Tell Mrs. Brown that this must be reported to her doctor because he needs to include this information in her medical history records. Record what Mrs. Brown has told in confidence, on her chart, being careful to use the exact words that she said so there will be no misunderstanding.
