Negligence (neglijans), Malpractice (neglijans pwofesyonèl), Assault (menas), Battery (vyolans fizik), False Imprisonment (prizon ilegal)

Negligence, Malpractice, Assault, Battery, False Imprisonment

👩‍⚖️ Kenbe yon pasyan ak fòs san rezon, epi sa se prizon ilegal (false imprisonment). Menase pou bay yon piki, epi sa se assault. Bay li kont volonte li, epi sa se battery. Egzamen an ap dekri aksyon an epi li ap mande non legal la.

👩‍⚖️ Restrain a client without a reason, and that is false imprisonment. Threaten to give an injection, and that is assault. Give it against their will, and that is battery. The exam will describe the act and ask for the legal name.

💡 Ide prensipal

Kat eleman pwouve malpractice: duty, breach, causation, damages. Assault se menas la, battery se kontak la, false imprisonment se prizon san jistifikasyon an.

Four elements prove malpractice: duty, breach, causation, damages. Assault is the threat, battery the touch, false imprisonment the unjustified confinement.

🧠 Poukisa sa enpòtan

NEGLIGENCE se lè ou pa aji jan yon moun rezonableman pridan ta aji; MALPRACTICE se neglijans pwofesyonèl. Pou pwouve li ou bezwen kat eleman: yon DUTY anvè pasyan an, yon BREACH nan devwa sa a, CAUSATION, ak DAMAGES. ASSAULT se yon menas oswa yon tantativ ki fè yon moun pè kontak ki danjere; BATTERY se kontak fizik reyèl yo pa vle a, ki gen ladan fè yon pwosedi san konsantman. FALSE IMPRISONMENT se limite libète yon pasyan san jistifikasyon, tankou mete kontansyon san yon lòd oswa refize kite yon pasyan ki kapab pati. DEFAMATION se yon deklarasyon fo ki fè domaj nan repitasyon, lè yo pale li (slander) oswa lè yo ekri li (libel). INVASION OF PRIVACY gen ladan vyolasyon konfidansyalite. Pi bon pwoteksyon ou yo se pratik konpetan nan limit pratik ou, swiv règleman an, dokimantasyon konplè, ak kominikasyon klè. Swiv yon lòd pratisyen an pa eskize ou si ou egzekite yon lòd ou te konnen oswa ou te dwe konnen ki pa an sekirite; kesyone li epi ale nan chèn kòmandman an.

NEGLIGENCE is failing to act as a reasonably prudent person would; MALPRACTICE is professional negligence. Proving it needs four elements: a DUTY to the client, a BREACH of that duty, CAUSATION, and DAMAGES. ASSAULT is a threat or attempt that makes someone fear harmful contact; BATTERY is the actual unwanted touching, which includes performing a procedure without consent. FALSE IMPRISONMENT is restricting a client's freedom without justification, such as applying restraints without an order or refusing to let a competent client leave. DEFAMATION is a false statement that harms reputation, spoken (slander) or written (libel). INVASION OF PRIVACY includes breaches of confidentiality. Your best protections are competent practice within your scope, following policy, thorough documentation, and clear communication. Following a provider's order does not excuse carrying out an order you knew or should have known was unsafe; question it and go up the chain of command.

🏥 Nan lavi reyèl

🛏️ Yon enfimyè di yon pasyan ki konfonn men ki pa vyolan, 'Si ou leve sot nan kabann an ankò, m ap mare ou.' Assault. Apre yo kenbe pasyan an ak kontansyon san lòd epi san okenn tantativ lòt opsyon. False imprisonment, epi petèt battery. Yon alam kabann, yon moun pou veye epi yon apèl bay pratisyen an ta swen enfimyè. Menas la te yon pwosè.

🛏️ A nurse tells a confused but non-violent client, 'If you get out of bed again, I'll tie you down.' Assault. The client is later restrained with no order and no attempt at alternatives. False imprisonment, and possibly battery. A bed alarm, a sitter and a call to the provider would have been nursing. The threat was a lawsuit.

✅ Teste tèt ou

Yon enfimyè bay yon piki bay yon pasyan ki kapab ki te refize li klèman. Ki tèm legal ki aplike?A nurse administers an injection to a competent client who clearly refused it. Which legal term applies?
  1. Assault
  2. Negligence
  3. Defamation
  4. Battery

Repons: D · Battery

Battery se kontak fizik entansyonèl yo pa vle, ansanm ak tretman yo bay malgre yon refi. Assault se menas kontak yo pa vle; depi yo bay piki a reyèlman, aksyon an vin battery.

Battery is intentional unwanted physical contact, including treatment given over a refusal. Assault is the threat of unwanted contact; once the injection is actually given, the act becomes battery.

Yon pasyan tonbe apre yon enfimyè pa leve ba kote kabann yo te preskri yo epi li fraktire anch li. Ki eleman malpractice frakti a ye?A client falls after a nurse fails to raise ordered side rails and sustains a hip fracture. Which element of malpractice is the fracture?
  1. Damages
  2. Breach
  3. Causation
  4. Duty

Repons: A · Damages

Damages se domaj reyèl pasyan an sibi a. Echèk pou leve ba yo se breach la; causation se prèv breach sa a te mennen dirèkteman nan tonbe a ak frakti a.

Damages are the actual harm suffered. The failure to raise the rails is the breach; causation is the proof that this breach directly led to the fall and fracture.

Yon pasyan ki kapab vle kite lopital la kont konsèy medikal. Enfimyè a bloke pòt la 'pou sekirite.' Ki pwoblèm legal enfimyè a kreye?A competent client wants to leave the hospital against medical advice. The nurse locks the door 'for safety.' Which legal issue has the nurse created?
  1. Assault
  2. Libel (difamasyon ekri)Libel (written defamation)
  3. Negligence (malpractice)
  4. False imprisonment

Repons: D · False imprisonment

Yon adilt ki kapab ka pati. Anpeche li san baz legal se false imprisonment. Enfimyè a dwe enfòme pratisyen an epi mande pasyan an siyen fòm AMA a. Assault ta mande menase pasyan an ak kontak ki danjere; bloke pòt la limite mouvman pasyan an san okenn menas.

A competent adult may leave. Preventing it without legal grounds is false imprisonment. The nurse should inform the provider and ask the client to sign the AMA form. Assault would require threatening the client with harmful contact; locking the door restricts the client's movement without any threat.
