Identify the choice that best completes the statement or answers the question.
____ 1. The nurse is caring for a group of patients on a medical–surgical

(LPN/LVN) assesses the patient experiencing a low blood glucose
first. Which process was needed to make this decision?

2. Recommendation of the registered nurse (RN)

Client Need: SECE: Coordinated Care
Cognitive Level: Comprehension [Understanding]
Concept: Clinical Judgment
Difficulty: Difficult

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.
