Answer to Question 2

Feedback
A Incorrect. Injury reporting laws allow under this circumstance another breach of confidentiality.
B Correct. The mandatory injury reporting laws allow breach of confidentiality, and the laws may require reporting of all injuries by weapon (knife, gun) or criminal act to law enforcement.
C Incorrect. Although this determination is part of the injury, the nurse is required by law to report the incident to the authorities and let them pursue this information.
D Incorrect. The law specifically requires anyone involved in the incident to be responsible to make the report to the authorities, not simply remind someone else to do it.
