Question 1 of 5
A nurse in the emergency department is preparing to care for a client who arrived via ambulance. The client is disoriented and has a cardiac arrhythmia. Which of the following actions should the nurse take?
Correct Answer: A
Rationale: The correct answer is A: Proceed with treatment without obtaining written consent. In emergency situations where a client is disoriented and has a cardiac arrhythmia, the nurse's priority is to provide immediate life-saving interventions. Obtaining written consent can delay crucial treatment and put the client at risk. The nurse must act swiftly to stabilize the client's condition and ensure their safety.
Choices B, C, and D are incorrect because in emergency situations, obtaining consent from the client or next of kin is not required before providing treatment. The focus should be on providing prompt and appropriate care to address the immediate health needs of the client.
