A nurse administers the wrong medication to a client.
After assessing the client, the nurse contacts the provider and completes an incident report.
Which of the following components of professionalism is the nurse demonstrating?

Choice A rationale:

SDOH are not determined by an individual's ethnic background. SDOH encompass a wide range of factors beyond ethnicity that affect an individual's well-being, including social, economic, and environmental factors.

Choice B rationale:

SDOH are conditions in an individual's environment that affect their well-being. This is the correct answer. Social Determinants of Health (SDOH) refer to the conditions in which people are born, grow, live, work, and age, and how these conditions impact their physical and mental well-being. These conditions include factors such as income, education, employment, social support, and access to healthcare.

Choice C rationale:

Identifying SDOH does not increase disparities in healthcare. In fact, recognizing and addressing SDOH can help reduce health disparities by providing more equitable access to resources and services for underserved populations.

Choice D rationale:

While psychological factors can be important determinants of health, they are not typically considered part of the social determinants of health. SDOH primarily focus on external factors related to an individual's environment and socioeconomic conditions.

Choice A rationale:

There are actually five rights of delegation: right task, right circumstance, right person, right direction/communication, and right supervision/evaluation. This statement is not accurate.

Choice B rationale:

It is not the duty of the delegatee to perform a task without asking questions. Effective delegation involves clear communication, including the opportunity for the delegatee to ask questions and seek clarification as needed.

Choice C rationale:

While the nurse manager plays a role in delegation, the responsibility for delegation does not solely rest on the nurse manager. Delegation is a shared responsibility among all nurses, and the person delegating the task must ensure it is appropriate and clear.
