A nurse has finished examining a patient. What actions does the nurse take next?

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

After finishing the exam, the nurse provides the patient with privacy for changing back into street clothes and any needed hygiene material. The nurse also documents the findings and cleans the room before the next patient is seen. The nurse does not simply tell the patient he/she may leave. The nurse should indicate what will happen next before the patient leaves (i.e., providing written material summarizing the visit, scheduling the next appointment).
