A nurse forgets to feed a patient.
Rationale: medical negligence is a failure to provide the standard of care that leads to harm or risk of harm. Forgetting to provide an essential aspect of care (feeding) can cause harm and thus is negligence. The others are unprofessional or inconvenient but not examples of medical negligence.
