Suggested Answer: C

Caring for a woman with gestational diabetes complications falls under health restoration. Health restoration involves actions taken to return a patient to their previous state of health or to manage chronic conditions. This includes managing and treating complications to improve health outcomes. Health promotion focuses on preventing health problems through lifestyle changes, health maintenance involves ongoing monitoring and prevention of deterioration, and health rehabilitation focuses on helping patients recover functionality after severe illness or injury.

Malpractice? Really? I don't think this rises to that level. Negligence and breach of confidentiality are the key problems here. The other nurse should know better than to use someone else's account.

Ha! I bet the other nurse was just trying to be efficient and save time. But you can't just log in as someone else, that's just asking for trouble.

I agree, the breach of confidentiality is the biggest concern. Using someone else's login to access patient information is a major violation of privacy.

Leaving the patient's notes unfinished is definitely negligence, but the other nurse using the previous nurse's account to enter her own notes is a clear breach of confidentiality. That's the main ethical issue here.
