An adolescent comes to the school nurse's office seeking advice about his friends and feeling pressure to participate in activities he isn't comfortable with (i.e., drinking parties and sexual explorations). The nurse should:
 
  1. Tell the adolescent to stay away from friends like that.
  2. Be open to the concerns and provide accurate information about any questions.
  3. Encourage the adolescent to accept psychosocial counseling.
  4. Give the adolescent pamphlets on sexually transmitted diseases.

Rationale 1: Giving directions may turn the student from seeking help.
Rationale 2: The nurse must present an open, accepting attitude to the adolescent's questions while encouraging the adolescent to find relationships that promote discussion of feelings, concerns, and fears.
Rationale 3: Suggesting counseling may turn the student from seeking help.
Rationale 4: Just giving written information on a particular topic will not address the complete situation the student comes seeking assistance with.
