Question

A nurse receives a request from a client to review the information in his medical record. Which response should the nurse give?

A. "I'm sorry, but I cannot provide access to your medical record."
B. "You need to submit a written request for medical record review."
C. "I can provide you with a summary of your medical information."
D. "Access to your medical record is only allowed with a court order."

Answer 1

The nurse should respond by saying, 'I can provide you with a summary of your medical information.'

Step-by-step explanation:

The nurse should respond by saying, 'I can provide you with a summary of your medical information.' When a client requests to review their medical record, the nurse can provide them with a summary of their medical information. This allows the client to have some access to their medical record without disclosing the entire record.
