Question 1 of 5
When making rounds the nurse observes a purple wristband on a patient's wrist. How will the nurse interpret this finding?
Correct Answer: B

This means that the patient has made a decision to not receive cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) in the event of cardiac or respiratory arrest. This information is crucial for healthcare providers to know and respect the patient's wishes. The other choices are incorrect because a purple wristband does not indicate allergies (
A), fall risk (
