Question 1 of 5
Before administering a medication to a client, the nurse must identify the client. Which of the following methods of identification should the nurse use?
Correct Answer: C
Rationale: The correct answer is C: Ask the client's full name and date of birth. This method ensures accurate identification by directly confirming the client's identity with the client themselves, reducing the risk of error. Asking a family member (
A) may lead to confusion or misinformation. Checking the client's name on the MAR (
B) is helpful but may not be sufficient for proper identification. Verifying the client's room number (
D) is not a reliable method as clients can be moved or share rooms. The best practice is to directly confirm the client's identity using their full name and date of birth (
C) to ensure safe and accurate medication administration.
