A student nurse is assigned to a clinical unit on which one of the patients is a nationally known celebrity. The student reads the chart to find out why the celebrity is being treated. The student who is not the assigned caregiver is:
motivated to learn about the health problem of this patient and is appropriately seeking knowledge during his clinical experience.
doing appropriate research about nursing care as long as information is not divulged.
violating the confidentiality of the patient's record.
neglecting the assigned patient load and should read the unassigned patient's medical record only after his assigned work is completed.
The Correct Answer is C
A. Motivated to learn about the health problem of this patient and is appropriately seeking knowledge during his clinical experience.
Accessing information without being the assigned caregiver is inappropriate, regardless of motivation, as it breaches confidentiality and privacy protocols.
B. Doing appropriate research about nursing care as long as information is not divulged. Even without sharing information, accessing a patient’s chart without need-to-know status is a privacy violation and does not constitute appropriate research.
C. Violating the confidentiality of the patient's record.
This choice is correct as the student is breaching confidentiality by accessing patient records without a care-related need to know. Only those involved in the patient's care should access their chart.
D. Neglecting the assigned patient load and should read the unassigned patient’s medical record only after his assigned work is completed.
Reading an unassigned patient’s record, even after finishing other duties, is still a breach of confidentiality.

Correct Answer is D
Explanation
A. Use unfamiliar language.
Unfamiliar language can confuse or intimidate young children, making it harder for them to understand and communicate effectively.
B. Use abstract explanations. Preschoolers are concrete thinkers and may not grasp abstract ideas, so explanations should be simple and direct.
C. Use long, complex sentences. Long, complex sentences may overwhelm a preschooler, who benefits more from short and clear sentences.
D. Consider the developmental level, using familiar words.
This approach is ideal as it aligns with the child’s cognitive abilities, helping the child feel comfortable and understand the nurse’s communication.
