The patient's daughter requests to see the patient's medical record.What is the nurse's appropriate response?

A) "Come with me and we will look at it together."
B) "I'm sorry but that information is confidential."
C) "Let me ask my supervisor if it is okay."
D) "The doctor will have to give permission first."

Nurses may not disclose information about patients' status to other patients,family members unless specifically granted in writing by the patient.Looking at the medical record together is not acceptable because confidentiality would be broken.Asking a supervisor is inappropriate because the nurse should already know the legalities for confidentiality.The doctor does not give permission for the daughter to look at the patient's medical records.
