The nurse is assisting the physician with a minor office procedure when the doctor is called away and asks the nurse to finish suturing the small wound created by the procedure. The nurse:
1. Sutures the wound, applies a dressing, and instructs the client how to perform wound care.
2. Tells the physician that nurses are not allowed to suture because it is outside the scope of practice.
3. Asks the physician to demonstrate by placing the first suture, and then performs the remainder of the procedure.
4. Notifies the nurse supervisor of the physician's request, and asks for permission to perform the procedure.
