Knocking and Entering

  • Always knock on the patient's door before entering.

  • Wait for a response or an invitation to enter.

  • If there is no response, announce your entry by saying, "I'm coming in."

Introduction and Verification

  • Introduce yourself by stating your name and role (e.g., "My name is Flora, and I'll be your nursing assistant today.").

  • Verify the client's identity by asking for their name and date of birth.

  • Check the client's wristband to confirm their identity matches the information provided.
