All actions are appropriate for the professional nurse. However, ensuring client safety is the
2k 2k 2k 2k 2k 2k 2k 2k 2k 2k 2k 2k 2k




priority. Health care errors have been widely reported for 25 years, many of which result in
2k 2k 2k 2k 2k



abirb .com/tes t 2 k 2 k 2k 2k 2k 2k 2k 2k 2k




client injury, death, and increased health care costs. There are several national and
2k 2k 2k 2k 2k 2k 2k 2k 2k 2k 2k 2k 2k




international organizations that have either recommended or mandated safety initiatives. Every 2k 2k 2k 2k 2k 2k 2k 2k 2k 2k




nurse has the responsibility to guard the client’s safety. The other actions are important for quality

safety, but is too narrow in scope to be the best answer.

be responsible for providers washing their hands, and even if the client does so, this is too narrow to
