Answer to Question 1

a

Answer to Question 2

Medical assistants and nurses should not follow orders that they believemay harm patients. Instead, they should consult the physicians out of patients' hearing range. When physicians insist that their orders be followed according to their instructions and they explain the risks and benefits of the treatment, the medical assistants and nurses should chart the events, including the fact that they questioned the doctor as to the accuracy of the orders. They should also include the physicians' responses.
