Question 19 • Nursing Assistant - EL3610

A nursing assistant glanced into a patient’s room and saw that the patient had not eaten any of his food. Without asking the patient what was wrong, the nursing assistant reported to the RN and said, “He never likes what we serve for dinner, so he did not eat any food tonight.” Which best describes what the nursing assistant said?

Answer
A
It was a biased report.
B
It was an unbiased report.
C
It was a false report.
D
It was a true report.

Explanation

The nursing assistant observed that the patient had not eaten, but assumed the reason was that he disliked the dinner without asking him. That adds an opinion or interpretation rather than reporting only what was seen, so it was a biased report.
