A licensed nurse has been asked to address a group of newly recruited nurses. What should the licensed nurse inform them about the nursing insignias?

A) Donning a nursing uniform is necessary when giving nursing care.
B) Wearing a nursing school pin is a required part of the nursing uniform.
C) Wearing a nametag is required when giving nursing care.
D) Displaying a religious symbol is preferred when providing nursing care.


C
Feedback:
Clients usually feel more comfortable when nurses are easily identifiable; thus, a nametag is required whenever the nurse is giving nursing care. Although donning a uniform is necessary, because it helps clients distinguish nurses from other staff, nurses in today's healthcare facilities do not always wear uniforms. Many nursing school pins bear some religious symbol, although wearing a nursing pin is not essential.
