According to the Standards of Nursing Practice, Board Rule 217.11, a comprehensive nursing assessment

  1. Can be conducted by any healthcare provider

  2. Should only be done for elderly patients

  3. Requires involvement of a registered nurse

  4. Is optional for minor medical procedures

The correct answer is: Requires involvement of a registered nurse

A comprehensive nursing assessment is a critical part of providing quality care for a patient. This type of assessment requires a skilled and knowledgeable healthcare provider who is trained to gather all necessary information about a patient's condition, history, and current needs. While other healthcare providers may be able to assist with certain parts of a nursing assessment, only a registered nurse has the education and training to perform a comprehensive nursing assessment. Therefore, options A, B, and D are incorrect as they suggest that any healthcare provider can perform this task, but in reality, it requires the involvement of a registered nurse.
