    Explanation
    If the Medical Gas Alarms are sounding, the correct action to take is to silence them and notify the Respiratory Department of the particular signal. This is important because the alarms are designed to alert medical staff of potential issues with the medical gas system, such as low oxygen levels or leaks. Silencing the alarms temporarily may be necessary to prevent unnecessary noise, but it is crucial to inform the Respiratory Department so that they can investigate and address the underlying problem to ensure patient safety.

    To make sure we treat the right patient or give medication to the right patient we match which of the following

    • Match their name on their picture to their name on the label

    • Match their room number to the room number on the label

    • Match their medical record number on their picture to the medical record number on the label

    • Match their age on their picture to the age listed on the label

    Correct Answer
    A. Match their medical record number on their picture to the medical record number on the label
    Explanation
    The correct answer is to match their medical record number on their picture to the medical record number on the label. This ensures that the correct patient is being treated or given medication by verifying their unique medical record number. Matching their name on their picture or their room number may not be reliable as there could be multiple patients with the same name or in the same room. Matching their age may also not be sufficient as there could be patients of the same age. Therefore, the medical record number is the most accurate and specific identifier for ensuring the right patient is being treated.
