Title: An urgent care nurse is triaging clients. Which client statements may indicate that medications are Post by: BreakFree on Feb 7, 2015 An urgent care nurse is triaging clients. Which client statements may indicate that medications are being misused?
1. “I was feeling really great so I stopped taking my antibiotic and now I feel feverish.” 2. “My retirement check didn’t come in over the holiday weekend so I didn’t have the money to get my antihypertension medication refilled. I just took one every other day instead of every day.” 3. “I really thought I would get better quicker if I took the medication four times a day instead of two times a day. Now, I have diarrhea.” 4. “The schedule is pretty complicated but my daughter-in-law got me a pill dispenser and that helps to keep me on schedule.” 5. “I’ve had to borrow the money from my daughter to get my medication, but I always seem to find a way to get it.” Title: Re: An urgent care nurse is triaging clients.
