Extract:
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. The AP's threat to put a diaper on the client if he doesn't use the urinal more carefully next time constitutes assault. Assault is the intentional act that causes another person to fear that they will be physically harmed. In this scenario, the threat of putting a diaper on the client without his consent is a form of intimidation and instills fear in the client.
Choices B, C, and D are incorrect because battery involves actual physical contact without consent, false imprisonment involves unjustified confinement, and invasion of privacy involves intruding on a person's right to privacy. In this case, the AP's actions align more closely with the definition of assault.
