Answer to Question 1

Ans: C
Usually, once you have notified your supervisor, he or she will assume
responsibility for the problem. When planning to report, you do not have to be sure beyond any
doubt that a problem exists. Confrontation is often ill-advised and rehabilitation may
accompany or precede discipline.

Answer to Question 2

Ans: A
Continuing contact with a patient outside of the domain of care is a boundaries
violation. Informing an employer that a patient was ill is not likely a boundaries violation, since
the nurse is reporting facts with the patient's permission. Nurses often participate in family
meetings and referrals made without a patient's knowledge are not a violation of boundaries.
