问题 单项选择题

A registered nurse who usually works on a medical-surgical unit is told to report to the cardiac care unit (CCU) for the day because the CCU is short staffed and needs additional help to care for the clients. The nurse has never worked in the CCU. Which of the following responses is the most appropriate nursing action ?()

A.Call the hospital lawyer.

B.Report to the CCU and identify tasks that she feels she can safely perform.

C.Speak to the nursing supervisor.

D.Refuse to go to the CCU.

答案

参考答案:B

解析:

When the nurse is placed in this situation, the most appropriate action is to set priorities and identify potential areas of harm to the client. Reassignment to another nursing area is an acceptable legal practice used by hospitals to meet their staffing needs. A nurse can’t legally refuse to be reassigned unless there’s a specific clause in her union contract.
