A 16-year-old adolescent named Kelly has come to a clinic where you work as a nu

A 16-year-old adolescent named Kelly has come to a clinic where you work as a nurse. She has stated that she is at least 12 weeks pregnant but has not told anyone, not even her parents or boyfriend. She is scared of telling her boyfriend for fear of losing him. She wants an abortion, has cash, and does not want anyone to know about the pregnancy or the abortion.
1. Explore the ethical issues surrounding this situation. Consider the trust–confidentiality–privacy dilemma as well as the consent dilemma.
2. Identify specific nursing strategies that you must consider using with Kelly. The clinic is in a state that does not require direct parental involvement but does require consent by someone of legal age.
3. What ANA Code of Ethics provision or provisions (including subsection) are involved in this case? For each provision that you cite, say what you think you should do based on that provision. If you were to follow the guidance provided in this provision, what would that look like? How would you act? What would you say?
