Answer:

It is MOST important for the LPN/LVN to “3. While a nurse assistant applies pressure to the wound, notify the physician.”

Explanation:

It is very important to apply pressure on the wound in order to stop the bleeding first then call a physician before asking whatever questions later after saving the clients life first.
