Question

The nurse assistant should NOT:

A. Make a self-introduction to the resident
B. Ask about the resident's bank account
C. Ask how the resident would like to be addressed
D. Knock each time before entering the resident's room

Answer 1

The nurse assistant should not inquire about a resident's bank account as it breaches privacy and confidentiality standards in the healthcare profession.

Step-by-step explanation:

The nurse assistant should NOT ask about the resident's bank account. By maintaining professionalism, nurse assistants ensure that they respect the privacy and dignity of those in their care. Self-introduction and asking how the resident would like to be addressed cultivates a respectful rapport and personalizes care. Knocking before entering a resident's room demonstrates respect for their personal space and privacy. Conversations about personal financial information, such as a bank account, are inappropriate and breach privacy and confidentiality standards in healthcare.
