Ethical & Legal Issues in Critical Care

A nurse is caring for a 16-year-old patient who was brought to the emergency department by friends after a motor vehicle accident. The patient is conscious, alert, and cooperative but has sustained multiple traumatic injuries including a suspected internal hemorrhage that requires immediate surgical intervention to prevent life-threatening complications. The patient's parents cannot be reached despite multiple attempts, and no legal guardian is present. What is the nurse's most appropriate action regarding consent for treatment?
