A nurse would utilize guidelines from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) when caring for a client diagnosed with:

1. heart disease.
2. cancer.
3. a communicable disease.
4. a fatal disease.

Question 2

During orientation to a new job, a nurse questions the preceptor about the reason for not milking or stripping a client's chest tube and is told that it is against agency policy.

The nurse then realizes that this procedure should not be done because doing so would:
1. anger the new employer.
2. extend the orientation period.
3. expose the nurse to legal liability.
4. make the client less confident in care provided.
