As a nurse, checking the settings and resetting alarms on mechanical ventilation equipment typically requires specific training and credentials that not all healthcare staff may have. It's a task that should be performed by a respiratory therapist or a nurse with specialized training in critical care, to ensure the safety and well-being of the patient.
