Answer:

A) go get the nurse to tell her that he has already stopped the beeping on the IV machine

Explanation:

Ideally, only a qualified nurse would press the button to stop the noise of the IV machine. However, if no nurse is available and Marc is fully confident that he knows how to stop the noise without causing damage to the machine or the patient, he must stop the noise, but he must communicate to the nurse what he did and why he did it immediately, so that there is no problem for anyone. In addition, when communicating what has been done, Marc shows that he is a responsible and attentive professional, that he is aware of his obligations, in addition to always seeking to learn more.
