Question Description
A Certified Nurse Aide was transferring a 94-year-old patient in a
nursing home from a wheelchair back into his bed when the patient
slipped, fell, and broke his arm. The nursing home rules state that two
CNAs are required to transfer a patient. The CNA then asked another CNA
to lie about the incident and claim that she was helping to transfer the
patient when he fell. That information was then entered into the
patient’s medical record. What do you think probably happened to the two
CNAs once the truth was uncovered? Why? Using your favorite search
engine, locate another case in which a patient’s medical record was
falsified and discuss the results of the case.
Your response
should be at least 200 words in length. All sources used, including the
textbook, must be referenced; paraphrased and quoted material must have
accompanying citations. Any references or citations used should be in
APA style.
