When the local newspaper calls to inquire why the mayor has been admitted to the hospital, the nurse replies,” He is here because he's an alcoholic.” What possible legal action may the nurse be charged?

A. Sharing personal information with a client is a boundary violation, as it blurs the professional relationship and creates a risk for the client to become involved in the nurse's personal issues.

B. Making plans to have lunch with a client after discharge is also a boundary violation, as it can be interpreted as crossing the professional boundary and compromising the nurse's objectivity and impartiality.

C. Agreeing to keep a secret from a client can also be a boundary violation, as it may interfere with the nurse's professional judgment and duty to protect the client's safety and well-being.

D. Allowing a client to hold the nurse's hand before chemotherapy is not necessarily a boundary violation, as this can be a form of emotional support that is appropriate in some circumstances.

E. Reading a 'get-well' card to a client is not a boundary violation, as it is a form of emotional support that is appropriate and professional.

It is important for a client to be included in their treatment plan if possible because it allows them to have a say in their own care and to work together with their healthcare team to set achievable goals and objectives. This can help improve the client’s engagement and motivation in their treatment and can lead to better outcomes.
