Answer:

Most likely A

Step-by-step explanation:

Even though the Nurse using approved abbreviations is safer than unapproved ones, using abbreviations at all is irresponsible. Choices B and C share the same issue of being misinterpreted. Writing quickly can make words illegible and new symbols would likely not be known by everyone.
