General instructions:
Review the scenario and address the questions below.
You are a nurse practitioner employed in a busy primary care office with responsibilities for managing the office staff, including the medical assistants who aid in client care as well as filing, answering calls from clients, processing laboratory results, and taking prescription renewal requests from clients and pharmacies. The office is part of a larger hospital system. One of the medical assistants has worked in the practice for 10 years and is very proficient at her job. She knows almost every client in the practice and has an excellent rapport with all the providers.
During an office visit, a client requested a refill for an amoxicillin prescription. When examining the empty bottle, you noted that the date on the bottle was 1 week ago. You also noted your name printed on the label as the prescriber though you did not see the client last week. The client explained that she called last week concerned about her cough and spoke to the medical assistant, who assured her that a prescription would be sent to the pharmacy for the concern. You do not recall having discussed this client with the medical assistant; the other providers in the practice deny speaking to or consulting about the client.
