Maternal and child

Case Study:
A 16-year-old arrived at a local family planning clinic with pregnancy concerns due to unprotected intercourse. This encounter occurred two nights prior, and she believes she may be fertile but wants information regarding the “morning-after pill”.

· What additional information should the nurse obtain during the assessment?

· What educational information should the nurse provide to the patient regarding emergency contraception treatment and the side effects?
