To discuss:
How and why would the student nurse respond to this situation.
Case summary:
Ms. G is a 28-year-old female patient admitted in the emergency department due to severe nausea and vomiting for past 48 hours. She had a history of Crohn’s disease and gastrointestinal problems. The patient had a bowel resection surgery one month ago, the patient seems too dehydrated. Hence, the emergency department nurse tried to start IV fluid. The nurse fails five times in attempting to insert the IV; the patient is upset over the needle pain and along with the abdominal pain. The patient tells the nurse to call an IV team to insert the IV, but the nurse took no notice and inserted the IV for sixth time with success as the patient is in tears due to the pain.
Explanation of Solution
The student nurse cannot take direct action on the emergency room nurse; hence the student nurse personally tells the emergency room nurse outside the patient room that she should call in the IV team and to stop attempting her skills on the patient.
To discuss:
The adequacy of the skills for professional practice and what that is tell about the nurse.

The nurse might be student nurse or a trainee nurse, and only the adequacy the nurse faces is that she is not still an Advanced Practice Registered Nurse (APRN), so that she can become as nurse advocate. As a nurse advocate, she can demand the rights of the patient and can implement quality care for the patient.
To discuss:

Explanation of Solution
The only criteria that is available is to advocate for the pain who is in severe pain. Complaining of the emergency department nurse to the clinical instructor will not going to help the patient who is in the current.
To discuss:
Whether the nursing student meet the criteria? Why or why not?

In cases such as this, A/B testing may be an iterative process.
