HESI LPN EXIT TEST 11 PROCTORED EXAM
The practical nurse (PN) overhears a conversation between an unlicensed assistive personnel (UAP) and another staff member in the hospital cafeteria line concerning a client's reaction to being given a diagnosis of terminal cancer. What is the best nursing action?
Explanation & Rationale
A. Trying not to listen to the conversation does not address the issue of confidentiality breach or protect the client's privacy. B. Writing an incident report might be necessary, but the immediate action should be to stop the conversation to protect the client's confidentiality. C. Approaching the individuals involved and asking them to stop is the most appropriate and immediate action to protect the client's privacy and confidentiality. D. Telling the client about the UAP's concern might not be suitable without context or proper consent, and it might not address the confidentiality breach.
