Meredith holds full responsibility for what happened to her patient. Falsifying documentation is illegal and extremely dangerous to the patients' health, as was the case with her patient, Mr. Wallace.
Meredith should have never put vitals down that were not taken at the time of the visit. What should have happened is that Meredith should have stopped attempting to take Mr. Wallace's vitals and asked a senior co-worker or the Physician to help assist with taking a blood pressure. She also could have used an alternate way of obtaining a blood pressure (example: using the radial pulse with the blood pressure cuff at the forearm). The patient should absolutely be reimbursed for the medical bills accrued from Meredith's mistake/lapse of judgment. Meredith also just receive a performance write-up with her employer. She is lucky if she would still have a job.

<h3>What is
integumentary?</h3>
The group of organs that make up an animal's body's outermost layer is known as the integumentary system, also known as the exocrine system. It is made up of the skin and its appendages, which function as a physical barrier between the inside and exterior environments, protecting and preserving the animal's body. Specifically, the body's outer skin.
Hair, scales, feathers, hooves, and nails are all components of the integumentary system. As the attachment place for sensory receptors that detect pain, touch, pressure, and temperature, it also serves to maintain water balance, protect deeper tissues, excrete wastes, and control body temperature.
