Answer to Question 1

1, 3
Explanation: 1. Any reaction to a diagnostic test must be reported as an incident. If a client or family refuses
treatment as ordered, a medical-legal incident has occurred. The nurse manager can address
the clients expectations related to meals. The physician and health care team are responsible
for deciding if the client is ready to be discharged and make it on the basis of the clients
medical condition. The physician and health care team are also responsible for deciding if the
client should be transferred from the ICU and make it on the basis of the clients medical
condition.
