The nurse is planning to administer an oral antibiotic to a client with a communicable disease. The client refuses the medication and tells the nurse that the medication causes abdominal cramping. The nurse responds, "The medication is needed to prevent the spread of infection, and if you don’t take it orally I will have to give it to you in an intramuscular injection." Which statement accurately describes the nurse’s response to the client?

The nurse could be charged with assault.

Explanation:

The options are:

a. The nurse could be charged with assault.

b. The nurse could be charged with battery.

c. The nurse will be justified in administering the medication by the intramuscular route once a prescription has been obtained from the physician.

d. The nurse is justified in administering the medication by way of the intramuscular route, because the client has a communicable disease.

Before going further, it'll be right to explain some terms. Antibiotics are strong medicines that are used to kill bacteria and oral antibiotics are often prescribed to be swallowed in either pill or in liquid form. Intramuscular injection is when a medication is being given into the muscles through the use of an injection.

In this case, we are told that the nurse is planning to administer an oral antibiotic to a client with a communicable disease but that the client refuses the medication and tells the nurse that the medication causes abdominal cramping and the nurse responds, by telling the patient that the medication is needed to prevent the spread of infection, and if the patient doesn't take it orally, it will be given in an intramuscular injection.

In this case, the nurse could be charged with assault because the patient complained about abdominal cramping anytime the antibiotics is taken and the best thing the nurse could have done is to call the doctor's attention to it in order to know what's really wrong with the patient and the reason for the cramp. As a nurse, she should also be gentle with her patients and not threaten them.

answer:

Our freedom of choice in a competitive society rests on the fact that, if one person refuses to satisfy our wishes, we can turn to another. But if we face a monopolist we are at his absolute mercy. ... There is no consensus as to whether an increase in economic freedom of choice leads to an increase in happiness.

Explanation:

It is so important to understand that we are all making choices all the time, even when we chose not to choose we have still made a choice. It is our choices that determine our experiences. ... Unless we are willing to take full responsibility for ourselves and the choices we make, we have no control over our lives
