Performing hand hygiene

Show

Rationale
The first nursing action when monitoring a patient's blood glucose level is to perform hand hygiene. Hand hygiene limits the transfer of microorganisms. While turning on the glucometer, choosing the puncture site, and removing the reagent strip from the container are all appropriate nursing actions for this procedure, these will not be the first step for the nurse.

Test-Taking Tip: Key words or phrases in the question stem such as first, primary, early, or best are important. Similarly, words such as only, always, never, and all in the alternatives are frequently evidence of a wrong response. No real absolutes exist in life; however, every rule has its exceptions, so answer with care.
