The patient is confused and clearly does not understand what the provider has told her. The nurse understands the patient is confused. What actions should the nurse take? 2.

A provider calls and asks the covering nurse how his patient is doing and how the abdominal incision looks today. The nurse pulls up the assessment and is unable to read what the nurse has documented. There are many abbreviations the nurse does not recognize. What should the nurse do? 3.
