The nurse is calling a health care provider to give an update on a client's condition. The nurse receives a telephone order and, when requests that the order be read back to the provider for confirmation, the provider states, "I don't have time for this." What is the most appropriate action by the nurse?
The nurse should nicely explain that the confirmation is protocol. It is used to make sure the information given has been received and typed accurately. This is for their benefit.
