Question

question 93 1 pts scenario: a pmhnp receives a request for information about a patient from a family member. what should the pmhnp do? provide the information immediately refuse to provide any information share only non - sensitive information obtain the patients consent before sharing information

Explanation:

In healthcare, patient confidentiality is crucial. A PMHNP (Psychiatric-Mental Health Nurse Practitioner) must follow ethical and legal guidelines (like HIPAA in the US) which require obtaining the patient's consent before disclosing their information, even to family members. Providing info immediately or sharing non - sensitive without consent violates confidentiality, and refusing all info without considering consent isn't the right approach as consent can be obtained.

Answer:

D. Obtain the patient's consent before sharing information
