A. Apple juice: Apple juice is a clear liquid, which is typically appropriate for a full liquid diet. This item does not need to be removed.

B. Cream of rice cereal: Cream of rice cereal is a proper component of a full liquid diet, as it is soft and liquid in nature.

C. Scrambled eggs: Scrambled eggs are considered a solid food and should not be included in a full liquid diet, which requires all foods to be liquid or semi-liquid.

A. List the patient off the unit on the computer. Listing the patient off the unit in the computer is important for tracking, but this is not the most immediate priority when transporting the patient. Verifying the patient's identity is more crucial to prevent errors in patient care.

The nurse must confirm the patient’s identity by checking the ID number against the medical record and transport slip before the patient is transferred to avoid any mistakes.
