A nurse is discussing strategies for conflict resolution with newly hired staff members. Which of the following characteristics should the nurse include when discussing the win-lose method of conflict resolution? (Select all that apply.)

A.Telling a confused client that they must stay for treatment may reflect a need for better communication strategies, but it is not necessarily unethical—it prioritizes safety and care, assuming the client lacks decision-making capacity.
B.Incorrectly stating that a DNR (Do Not Resuscitate) order includes withholding comfort measuresindicates a misunderstanding of ethical and legal standards. DNR orders mean no resuscitation in the event of cardiac or respiratory arrest but do notmean withholding comfort or palliative care. This response shows a need for further ethical education.
C.Refusing to participate in an abortion procedure based on moral or religious beliefs is ethically acceptable under the principle of conscientious objection, as long as patient care is not compromised.
D.Administering prescribed opioids to a terminally ill client, even with a low respiratory rate, can be ethically appropriate under the principle of palliative care, where comfort is prioritized, especially at end of life. The nurse should, however, monitor the client closely.

A. Petroleum jelly is not recommended for tracheostomy care because it can be aspirated and cause airway obstruction.

B. An obturator is essential to have on hand in case the tracheostomy tube becomes dislodged. It allows for safe reinsertion of the tube and is a critical emergency supply.

C. An oxygen tank may be necessary if the client requires supplemental oxygen therapy at home, depending on their respiratory status.

D. Cotton balls are not recommended for tracheostomy care because fibers can be aspirated and cause airway obstruction.

E. Pipe cleaners are unsafe for tracheostomy care because they can break or leave fragments in the airway. Proper tracheostomy cleaning supplies include sterile swabs or suction catheters.
