NCLEX RN Practice Question

The correct answer involves cross-referencing the prescription with the provider’s written order and verifying that it aligns with the client’s medical condition.

Beginning fluid administration without verification could result in potential harm if the prescription contains an error. Asking team members for input does not substitute formal confirmation with the prescription, and simply reviewing the care plan might not reflect the most current or accurate treatment orders.
