Select an example of a tort.
Explanation & Rationale
A. Recommending hospitalization for a patient who is dangerous to self or others is an example of appropriate professional judgment and does not constitute a tort. B. Delays in completing a plan of care may reflect poor documentation or practice issues, but it is not automatically considered a tort. C. Administering medication to a patient solely due to staffing issues, rather than based on clinical need or prescription, constitutes battery or negligence, which are examples of torts in healthcare law. D. Changing a patient’s admission status based on clinical improvement is appropriate practice and not a tort.
