On returning from surgery after undergoing a thyroidectomy, the patient is alarmed about the large tracheostomy tray on the bedside table. When she asks why it is there, the nurse replies:
1.   “We have it there as a precautionary measure in the unlikely event that you have difficulty breathing.”
2.   “If you start bleeding, we’ll be able to take care of it right here at the bedside.”
3.   “We have to keep it there in case of an emergency and the doctor needs it.”
4.   “It’s hospital policy to have it handy.”
