A client with heart failure is admitted to the med-surg unit with difficulty breathing. She informs the nurse that she has a living will and tells the nurse if her heart stops "just let me be". The nurse notes there is no DNR order on the chart. What priority action should the nurse take? The nurse has been assigned to float to another unit that she is unfamiliar with and has been given an assignment with five (5) high acuity clients. Identify how the nurse can address her concerns about a challenging assignment with conflict resolution strategies. A nurse is delegating feeding of a confused client who has graduated to feeding with assistance by an assistive personnel (AP). A new AP is assisting the client with feeding. To ensure best practices and safety precautions, what responsibilities should the nurse complete with this delegation?
