Question
a caregiver can assist a client with prn medications when there are clear, written directions and: required the client requests it. nursing judgment is required. you have time to help.
PRN medications are "as - needed" medications. A caregiver can assist a client with PRN medications when there are clear written directions and the client requests it. Nursing judgment (option B) is more relevant for situations where a nurse is making a clinical decision about a non - PRN (scheduled or more complex) medication administration that may require assessment. Option C (having time to help) is not a valid reason for administering PRN medications as it should be based on the client's need (request in the case of PRN) and proper documentation (written directions).
