Coordinated CarePregunta 13 de 120
A client's family asks the LPN/LVN to explain the surgeon's plan for an upcoming operation. What is the best response?
a."I will let the surgeon know you have questions about the plan."
b."The surgery is simple, so there is nothing to worry about."
c."I cannot discuss anything about the surgery with you."
d."Let me describe the entire surgical procedure for you."
Explicación
Explaining the surgical plan and obtaining informed consent are the provider's responsibility. The nurse should facilitate communication by notifying the surgeon of the family's questions. Reassurance or refusal without follow-up does not meet the family's needs.
