What did the dental auxiliary do incorrectly?
A 76-year-old female presents with a positive medical history. She reports on the medical history that she has heart problems and diabetes. As the dental auxiliary begins to prepare the operatory, the patient loses consciousness. The dental auxiliary retrieves the emergency kit and administers several drugs to the patient. The dentist enters the operatory as the patient is regaining consciousness.
What will be an ideal response?
The dental auxiliary leaves the patient alone to retrieve the emergency kit; she also administers medications to the patient; and does not notify the dentist.
