Who should explain a surgical procedure to a pt? THE HCP
RN should make sure that the operative permit is signed and on the chart. It is NOT the
RN's responsibility to explain the procedure to the client.
Good Samaritan Act?
Means of protecting a nurse when he or she is performing emergency care
If the nurse carries out a provider's prescription that she is not prepared for and does not
inform the provider about her lack of preparation?
The nurse is solely responsible for any damages.
If nurse informs HCP of her lack of preparation in carrying out a prescription and carries
out the prescription anyway?
The nurse and the physician are liable for damages
Can the nurse alter the prescription dosage of drug?
NEVER. Nursing judgement cannot be substituted with medical judgement. If she
believes the dosage is wrong, she should inform the health care provider, record the
response of the provider, inform the nursing supervisor, refuse to carry out wrong
prescription.
What should a nurse do if she believes a provider's prescription is made with poor
judgement? - i.e. she doesn't believe the pt needs a tranquilizer.
Record that the health care provider was notified and that the prescription was
questioned. Carry out the prescription as ordered.
Nurse Practice Acts governs policies related to making assignments. E.g for a sterile
dressing change:
Should be done by an RN or LPN-licensed practical nurse, who has been checked off this
procedure.
