Question 1 of 5
A newly licensed nurse has forgotten their password and asks another nurse to access the computer system for them so they can document care before transferring the client to another unit. Which of the following responses should the nurse make?
Correct Answer: C
Rationale: Involving the supervisor may not be necessary when password recovery options exist. Having another nurse document risks accountability issues. Providing contact information for password recovery is appropriate and maintains security. Sharing passwords violates policy and compromises security.
Question 2 of 5
A home health nurse is assessing the home environment of an older adult client who has osteoporosis. For which of the following findings should the nurse intervene?
