Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

When a client states their sexual orientation as bisexual, the nurse should include questions related to the client's current relationship status, such as if they are in a committed relationship with a partner of the same sex, opposite sex, or both. This will help the nurse to understand the client's sexual and emotional needs and provide culturally competent care. Questions related to frequency of sexual relations, group identification, or actions taken to prevent pregnancy may not be relevant or appropriate for this client.
