Show Suggested Answer Hide Answer
Suggested Answer: D

Screening Programs and Fasting Requirements:

Certain screening tests, like fasting blood glucose or lipid profiles, require fasting for accurate results.

Nurse's Response:

Not Eligible: Incorrect as the patient can still participate in parts of the screening.

Come Tomorrow: Not the most efficient use of the patient's time.

No Worries: Incorrect as fasting is important for some tests.

Take History Now, Blood Test Later: The best response as it makes efficient use of the current visit for history taking and schedules the blood test for another time when fasting can be ensured.

Hold on, what if the patient is a vampire? Then option B might be the best choice. Gotta make sure they're not sparkly before the blood test, am I right?

I agree, C is the correct answer. We shouldn't turn away patients just because they had breakfast. The nurse can still gather valuable information and schedule the blood test later.

Option C is the way to go. The nurse should be accommodating and work with the patient's situation. Fasting isn't a prerequisite for history taking.
