Which of the following correctly indicates the order below:

Document the refusal and inform the prescriber is the appropriate action for the nurse to take if a client refuses a medication and provides a reason for refusal. The nurse should document the refusal and reason in the client’s medical record, and notify the prescriber of the refusal and the reason given by the client. The prescriber may then choose to modify the medication or the administration method, or may provide additional education or counseling to the client regarding the medication. It is important to respect the client’s autonomy and right to refuse medication, and to work collaboratively with the prescriber to ensure that the client’s care needs are met in a safe and effective manner.

As a healthcare professional, a nurse has a legal and ethical responsibility to ensure that medication administration is safe and effective for the patient. If a nurse administers medication that is unsafe, they can be held liable for the error. It is important for nurses to follow medication administration protocols, verify medications before administering them, and report any errors or concerns to the appropriate parties.
