is the AP committing?

B. Battery
C. False Imprisonment

A nurse is caring for a competent adult client who tells the nurse that he is thinking
about leaving the hospital against medical advice. The nurse believes that this is

medication the client has not requested along with his usual medication. Which of
the following types of tort is the nurse about to commit?
A. Assault
B. False Imprisonment
C. Negligence
D. Breach of Confidentiality

B. False imprisonment

Rationale:
The nurse gave the med as a chemical restraint to keep the client from leaving the
facility against medical advice. This is false imprisonment bc the client neither
requested nor consented to receiving the sedative.
A nurse in a surgeon's office is providing preoperative teaching for a client who is
scheduled for surgery the following week. The client tells the nurse that he will

,c. "I plan to write that I don't want them to keep me on a breathing machine"
d. "I will get my regular doctor to approve my plan before I hand it in at the hospital"

C. "I plan to write that i don't want them to keep me on a breathing machine."

Rationale:
The client has the right to decide and specify which medical procedures he
wants when a life-threatening situation arises.

e. Tell the client about alternatives to having the surgery.

A. Make sure the surgeon obtained the client's consent.

B. Witness the client's signature on the consent form.

Rationale:

consent and that he understands the information the surgeon gave him.
2. It is the nurse's responsibility to witness the client's signing of the consent
form, & to verify that he is consenting voluntarily & appears to be competent to
do so.

client is coughing and sneezing. Which of the following actions should the nurse

during the dressing change.

work surface in preparation for an invasive procedure. Which of the following
flaps should the nurse unfold first?

thus reduce the risk to the client's safety. Unless the nurse pulls the top flap (the
one furthest from her body)
