the record should be closed when entering the client’s room
and remain closed unless being actively used. All physical
medical records should be returned to a designated storage
area.
Only those directly involved in caring for the client should
review the medical record. The client has a right to look at
their own record, but that right is not extended to family or
friends without consent from the client. The exception to this
is for custodial caregivers and parents or legal guardians of
minors.
Although the security of health records is a high priority, they
must remain available to the entire care team. Locking records
in an individual’s desk may limit access, delay care, and
negatively impact client safety.

physical assessment

RATIONALE: The complete health assessment includes a health
history, physical assessment, and interpretation of data to
determine if further assessment is needed.
Although the information collected during the complete health
assessment is used to set goals for the client’s health and
identify teaching needs, those aspects of care are not part of
the complete health assessment.
When entering the room to perform a complete health
assessment on a new client, the nurse finds the client and
family standing around an unlicensed assistive personnel
(UAP) who is lying on the floor.
What is the priority action for the nurse? Ans: Assess the
UAP.

RATIONALE: In this situation, you may have struggled to select
one of two answers: assess the UAP or ask what happened. The
key to deciding which to select is often to answer this
question, “If I can only do one thing to help, what would it
be?” When a person appears to be unresponsive, the one action
to take is to assess the person who may be experiencing a
health emergency, even if is not the client. Of course, most
health professionals would be assessing the UAP while asking
the client what happened. The correct answer is based on the
fact that only asking what happened while not assessing is not
in the individual’s best interest.
