The nurse would be concerned about educating the patient about sexual activity and sexually transmitted infections because the patient is having sex with various men. This education is important to help prevent the spread of STIs and to keep the patient safe. The other options may be a consideration depending on the patient's values and beliefs, but they are not the priority concern in this situation.
