Question 1 of 5
Nurse observes assistive personnel (AP) reprimanding a client for not using urinal properly. The AP tells him she will put a diaper on him if he doesn't use urinal more carefully next time. Which of the following torts is AP committing?
Correct Answer: A
Rationale: The correct answer is A: Assault. Assault is the intentional act that causes another person to fear that they will be touched in a harmful or offensive manner. In this scenario, the AP's threat to put a diaper on the client if he doesn't use the urinal properly next time is an intentional act that instills fear in the client. This threat constitutes assault because it creates a reasonable apprehension of harmful or offensive contact.
Choice B (Battery) involves actual physical contact without consent, which is not present in this scenario.
Choice C (False imprisonment) involves restricting someone's freedom of movement, which is not evident here.
Choice D (Invasion of privacy) pertains to disclosing private information, which is not the issue at hand.
Therefore, the correct answer is A as it best aligns with the scenario presented.
