Question:
A nursing assistant on the nurse’s unit was injured four months ago in a fire. Her right leg was badly burned. She has just been cleared for work by a rehabilitation facility, but she walks with a prominent limp and an extremely unsteady gait. The nursing assistant wants to return to work on her unit, which has a critical care level of acuity. To assist the nursing assistant, the nurse should take which of the following actions?
A
Survey other units for positions more suitable for the nursing assistant’s abilities.
explanation
The ADA requires reasonable accommodations, but the nursing assistant should also be able to perform the job. The surgical unit will also be demanding. The nurse is unable to offer the secretarial position, as this is a different job type. The nursing assistant needs a position more appropriate, so other units should be investigated.
