Question 1 of 5

Which best exemplifies malpractice?

Correct Answer: D

Rationale:
Correct
Answer: D

Rationale: Administering amoxicillin to a client with known penicillin allergies is a clear case of malpractice due to the potential harm it poses. The client having a seizure and respiratory arrest directly links the adverse outcome to the nurse's actions. This scenario demonstrates a breach in the standard of care and patient safety protocols.
Summary of other choices:
A: Administering the wrong medication is serious but the client only experienced one episode of vomiting with no further adverse reactions, making it less severe than D.
B: Applying an ice pack without an order is a deviation from protocol but the client feeling better does not result in harm like in D.
C: While the client broke a femur, the nurse used proper body mechanics and the outcome was an unintended accident, not a direct result of malpractice like in D.
