making. The nurse identified the patient at high risk and decided to assess this
person first.
2 The LPN/LVN needs to make clinical decisions independently from the RN.
3 Understanding the pathophysiology of the disease does not determine how
decisions are made.
4 Past medical history is important, but the current clinical cues will determine
prioritized nursing actions.

so.
