When educating a student nurse about hospital identification bands, a nurse appropriately recognizes that additional teaching is warranted when the student nurse states:
 
  1. The hospital identification band displays the patient's name and birth date and the hospital identification number.
  2. I have taken care of this patient before, so I will not need to check the patient's identification band before administering medication.
  3. I should instruct the patient to state his or her name and verify that it matches the name on the hospital identification band.
  4. I should ask the patient to state his or her date of birth and verify that it matches the date of birth listed on the hospital identification band.

Question 2

A nurse is supervising a certified nursing assistant (CNA) who is caring for a patient who is alert and oriented and independent concerning activities of daily living.
 
  The nurse appropriately intervenes when hearing the CNA say to the patient:
  1. You should drink ice water rather than room-temperature water.
  2. Would you like to leave your socks on?
  3. Do you prefer your drinks with or without a straw?
  4. Would you prefer a cup of hot coffee, a glass of iced tea or fruit juice, or maybe a carbonated drink?
