Verbally's Meds Reflection
We attended Catawba County Main Library. Verbally prompted the client to take his meds along with a bottle of water before the commencement of library activities. The client did an excellent job in opening both of his snacks independently while at the library. The client independently took his meds. Additionally, the client watched a video called, “The 10 Commandments for kids (Old Testament Bible Cartoon Story).” The video is approximately 26:55 minutes long. Watched video on the youtube channel.

    Jerry’s medical training as a licensed practical nurse and medical assistant does not qualify him to refill the valium order. Each state has its own board of nursing and each board of nursing has defined a scope of practice for health care professionals. In most states the LPN is cannot practice independently and must be supervised by a registered nurse or a physician (Texas department of aging and disability services, 2010). If Jerry issues the refill order he would be practicing independently and that is out of an LPN’s scope of practice. It does not matter what type of medication is being prescribed, prescribing medications is considered practicing medicine and that can only be done by a physician. Jerry would not be protected under the respondeat superior doctrine:…
