Answer to Question 1

C

Answer to Question 2

C
Feedback:
The nurse should make sure the order is cosigned by the prescribing person as soon as possible, at least within 1224 hours. The nurse should read the order back to the healthcare provider before hanging up and document it in the prescribed location. It is important to document that the order was taken by a nurse and that it was read back to the provider. Most acute care facilities allow only registered nurses to accept verbal orders; however, practical/vocational nurses in extended-care facilities and physician's clinics usually are allowed to take them as well.
