Question 1 of 5
A nurse is preparing to administer a tablet to the patient. When should the nurse remove the medication from its unit dose package?
Correct Answer: D
Rationale: The correct answer is D: At the patient's bedside. This is because removing the medication at the patient's bedside allows for proper identification of the patient, verification of the medication with the prescription, and immediate administration ensuring accuracy and patient safety. Removing the medication in the medication room (
A), outside the door to the patient's room (
B), or at the medication cart (
C) may lead to errors in medication administration as the nurse may not have direct access to the patient's information or the opportunity to verify the patient's identity before administering the medication.
