A new graduate nurse is caring for a client named Joseph Park. His identification band lists his name, date of birth, medical record number, and attending provider. Before giving medications and collecting blood specimens, the new graduate identifies him in several ways during the shift. Which actions meet the requirement to use two patient identifiers? Select all that apply.

Explanation
Name plus birth date stated by the client, name plus record number read from the band of a sedated client, and name plus birth date on the band compared with specimen labels at the bedside each use two person-specific identifiers. Matching a stated name to the band name checks only one identifier twice, a spare label sheet is not attached to the client, and the attending provider's name is not person-specific, so those methods fail even though they look thorough.
