A nurse is assisting with teaching a class about professionalism. The nurse should include that joining a professional organization is an example of which of the following?

Choice A reason: Outside client's room is not an appropriate area to provide report to the oncoming nurse. This area may not be private or quiet enough to ensure confidentiality and accuracy of the information. The nurse may also miss important cues or changes in the client's condition or environment.
Choice B reason: Conference area is not an appropriate area to provide report to the oncoming nurse. This area may be too far from the client's room or the nursing station, which can delay the response time or the continuity of care. The nurse may also lose the opportunity to interact with the client and the family, and to verify the data with the physical assessment.
Choice C reason: Nurse's lounge is not an appropriate area to provide report to the oncoming nurse. This area may be too informal or distracting to maintain the professionalism and focus of the report. The nurse may also violate the privacy and dignity of the client and the family by discussing their personal or medical information in a public place.
Choice D reason: Client's bedside is an appropriate area to provide report to the oncoming nurse. This area allows the nurse to involve the client and the family in the report, which can enhance their satisfaction, safety, and education. The nurse can also observe the client's condition and behavior, and perform the physical assessment and the medication reconciliation with the oncoming nurse.

Choice A reason: Preventing opioid use is not a benefit of de-escalation techniques. Opioid use is a complex issue that involves biological, psychological, and social factors, and cannot be prevented by simply deescalating emotional situations. De-escalation techniques may help to calm or soothe someone who is experiencing pain or distress, but they do not address the underlying causes or consequences of opioid use.

Choice B reason: Increasing communication is not a benefit of de-escalation techniques, but a means or a strategy to achieve de-escalation. Communication is an essential skill that helps to deescalate emotional situations by listening, validating, empathizing, and problem solving with the other person. Communication can also help to prevent or reduce conflicts, misunderstandings, and aggression. However, communication is not an outcome or a result of de-escalation, but a process or a tool to facilitate de-escalation.

Choice C reason: Decreasing hallucinations is not a benefit of de-escalation techniques. Hallucinations are perceptual disturbances that involve seeing, hearing, feeling, smelling, or tasting things that are not there. Hallucinations can be caused by various factors, such as mental disorders, neurological conditions, substance use, or medication side effects. De-escalation techniques may help to manage or cope with hallucinations, but they do not treat or eliminate them.

Choice D reason: Reducing restraint use is a benefit of de-escalation techniques. Restraint use is a practice that involves restricting the movement or behavior of a person who poses a risk of harm to themselves or others. Restraint use can have negative effects on the physical and psychological wellbeing of the person, such as injuries, infections, agitation, and trauma. De-escalation techniques can help to avoid or minimize the need for restraint use by resolving or calming emotional situations in a safe and respectful manner.
