Answer to Question 1
A
A number of different types of torts can be found in health care-related situations. When a nurse or individual threatens to do an action, such as Nurse X threatening to give Patient W an enema regardless of his wishes, she is guilty of assault (threat to touch another person in an offensive manner without that person's permission.). If Nurse X actually gave the enema to Patient W then she would be guilty of battery (touching of another person without that person's consent). Defamation pertains to intentionally giving information, communication, or publication that may cause the loss of a person's reputation.
