Question 1 of 5
A nurse is caring for a group of clients. Which of the following situations requires an incident report?
Correct Answer: C
Rationale: The correct answer is C because administering insulin before the scheduled time can lead to hypoglycemia, a serious adverse event that requires documentation in an incident report for quality improvement and accountability. Administering insulin at an incorrect time can result in harm to the client and is considered a medication error.
Choices A, B, and D do not necessarily require incident reports as they are common occurrences in healthcare settings and can be managed through routine documentation and interventions. Vomiting after medication administration and receiving a meal tray slightly early are not considered critical incidents. Experiencing a seizure is a medical emergency that requires immediate intervention but does not necessarily indicate a system error that requires documentation in an incident report.
