A nursing assistant typically does not have the authority or training to stop an IV from alarming, as this may indicate a potential issue that requires a licensed nurse's assessment. The nurse should be notified to evaluate the situation, determine the cause of the alarm, and take appropriate action. Nursing assistants can assist by monitoring the patient and ensuring their safety while waiting for further guidance.
