Problem
Case study: Cameron
Cameron is a seventeen-year-old boy who is being admitted to the day surgery unit where you are on placement. Cameron is accompanied by his father. After the pre-admission checks have been completed, Cameron's father explains that he is going outside to smoke. After his father leaves, Cameron asks you if he can tell you something in private. Before you respond, Cameron explains that although he answered 'no' to the question about using recreational drugs, he says he used marijuana on the weekend and is scared it might cause a bad reaction with his general anaesthetic. Cameron asks you not to tell his father.
