Nursing is the use of clinical judgment in the provision of care to enable people to improve, maintain, or recover health, to cope with health problems, and to achieve the best possible quality of life whatever their disease or disability, until death.
SCENARIO : A hemodialysis client presents to the dialysis clinic for a regularly scheduled dialysis session. The nurse assesses the client’s dialysis access graft before beginning the treatment. The graft site appears reddened and feels abnormally warm to the touch. The client reports a fever and aching joints for the past two days and a headache starting that morning. The client’s temperature is 101.5&F. The nurse fails to immediately notify the client’s nephrologist of the assessment findings and vital signs.

Discuss the impact of breach in continuity of care that could result in harm to the client
