Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Rationale 1: The nurse must be given adequate notice of changes in the hearing schedule or due process of law is violated.
Rationale 2: The nurse must be given proper information about the purpose of the meeting or due process of law is violated.
Rationale 3: Each nurse's participation in this situation is individual. Other nurses may not have committed actionable offenses. If their actions were equally as actionable, this would violate the equal protection of the law concept, not due process of law.
Rationale 4: Due process of law applies only to state actions, not to that of private citizens.
Rationale 5: As long as the nurse has adequate notice of this postponement, due process of law is not violated.
