You are the Hospitalist Nurse Practitioner on duty when an upset mother of an adult disabled young man, on
the floor you are covering, comes to talk about the care her son is receiving. She is concerned the nurses
allowed him to sleep through the morning medication pass and now the Myasthenia Gravis symptoms have
“flared up” and he can barely hold up his head. He now cannot safely eat at this time due to his high risk of
