If an accident occurs as a result of the RN's action of instructing the LPN/LVN to educate a new diabetic client how to give insulin, the RN (licensed practical/vocational nurse) is deemed negligent.

The five components of negligence—duty, breach of duty, reason, in fact, proximate cause, & harm—must be established in this case, and you and your attorney must do so. Your attorney might be able to assist you in gathering the evidence required to prove your case, creating a compelling argument, and securing the financial award you are due. As unlicensed assistance personnel (UAP) at a nearby nursing home, a nursing student gives medication to a resident. The Nurse Practitioner Act provides definitions for these laws (NPA). Each state's and territory's nursing board, which has the jurisdiction to control how nursing care is provided and to enact legislation, interprets the NPA into rules.

Answer:

What is: Glomeruli; Pyelonephritis

Explanation:

Several diseases that affect other parts of the body can have devastating effects on kidney function. Most of these conditions tend to damage the GLOMERULI, which causes the kidneys to lose the ability to filter, and eventually, to fail. Various types of infections can affect the kidneys themselves, a condition called Pyelonephritis.

Akimi4 [234]

After a tonsillectomy, the nurse should review PHCP’s postoperative prescription and prescribe suction every 2 hours.

The surgical removal of the tonsils, which are two oval-shaped tissue pads located in the back of the throat, one on each side, is known as a tonsillectomy. Suction equipment should be accessible after a tonsillectomy, but due to the danger of trauma to the surgical site, suctioning is rarely done until there is an airway obstruction. After any kind of surgery, it's important for nurses to keep an eye out for bleeding. Initially, milk and milk products should be avoided since they coat the throat, make the child clear their throat, and raise the risk of bleeding. It is recommended to drink cool, clear beverages.

NISA [10]

When a parent of a toddler recently diagnosed with pneumococcal pneumonia asks why their child is so much sicker than a classmate was when they were diagnosed with pneumonia, the nurse replies, "It sounds like your child has a case of bacterial pneumonia, while the classmate had viral pneumonia."

What is Pneumococcal pneumonia?

Pneumococcal disease is caused by bacteria, Streptococcus pneumoniae that can attack different parts of the body.

When these bacteria invade the lungs, they can cause pneumonia; when they invade the bloodstream, they can cause sepsis; and when they invade the covering of the brain, they can cause meningitis. These serious conditions often require hospitalization, and can lead to death.

The bacteria can also cause milder common conditions like middle-ear infection (otitis media) and sinusitis.

Anyone can get pneumococcal disease, but some groups are at increased risk including:

  • Children younger than age 2 years
  • Adults over age 65 years
  • Children and adults with certain medical conditions, including chronic heart disease, lung disease, kidney or liver disease, diabetes, or illnesses that weaken the immune system, such as HIV and certain cancers, among others
