What would you do when you found the patient ring or denture under the pillow while you were changing the bed linens?

If I found a patient’s ring or denture under the pillow while changing the bed linens, I would first ensure that the item is clean and undamaged. Next, I would document the discovery in the patient's records and report it to the appropriate staff member, such as a nurse or the patient's family, to ensure it is returned to the patient. Finally, I would handle the item with care and store it securely until it can be given back to the patient.
