Choice B rationale:

Maintaining the client’s confidentiality about a substance use disorder is an important aspect of nursing care, but it demonstrates the ethical principle of confidentiality, not veracity.

Choice C rationale:

Reinforcing information on the potential adverse effects of a medication with the client is an example of veracity. The nurse is being truthful and transparent about the potential risks associated with the medication.

Choice D rationale:

Respecting the client’s right to refuse to attend a group therapy session demonstrates the ethical principle of autonomy, not veracity.

A. "I'm using a syringe to obtain your blood, not a snake.”. B. "Your provider requires this blood specimen.”. C. "You must be mistaken. D. Snakes cannot be in the clinic.”.
