1. A nurse wishes to provide client-
+i +i +i +i +i
centered care in all interactions. Which action by the nurse best demons
+i +i +i +i +i +i +i +i +i +i +i
trates this concept? +i +i
a. Assesses for cultural influences affecting health care+i +i +i +i +i +i
b. Ensures that all the clients basic needs are met +i +i +i +i +i +i +i +i

+i +i +i +i +i +i +i +i
d. Thoroughly orients the client and family to the room +i +i +i +i +i +i +i +i
ANS: A +i
Rationale
Competency in client- +i +i
focused care is demonstrated when the nurse focuses on communication, culture, respe
+i +i +i +i +i +i +i +i +i +i +i
ct compassion, client education, and empowerment. By assessing the effect of the client
+i +i +i +i +i +i +i +i +i +i +i +i
s culture on health care, this nurse is practicing client-
+i +i +i +i +i +i +i +i +i
+i focused care. Providing for basic needs does not demonstrate this competence. Simply
+i +i +i +i +i +i +i +i +i +i +i +i
telling the client about all upcoming tests is not providing empowering education.
+i +i +i +i +i +i +i +i +i +i +i
Orienting the client and family to the room is an important safety measure, but not dire
+i +i +i +i +i +i +i +i +i +i +i +i +i +i +i
ctly related to demonstrating client-centered care.

The purpose of the Rapid Response Team (RRT) is to intervene when clients
+ i + i + i + i + i + i + i + i + i + i + i + i + i
are deteriorating before they suffer either respiratory or cardiac arrest. Since the client
+i +i +i +i +i +i +i +i +i +i +i +i +i
has manifested a significant change, the nurse should call the RRT. Changes in blood p
+i +i +i +i +i +i +i +i +i +i +i +i +i +i
ressure, mental status, heart rate, and pain are particularly significant.

Documentation is vital, but the nurse must do more than document. The primary+i +i +i +i +i +i +i + i + i +i +i +i +i
care provider should be notified, but this is not the priority over calling the RRT. T

n does the nurse provide to help the client promote his or her own safety?
+i +i +i +i + i +i +i +i +i +i +i +i +i +i
a. Encourage the client and family to be active partners. +i +i +i +i +i +i +i +i
b. Have the client monitor hand hygiene in caregivers.

Each action could be important for the client or family to perform. However,

encouraging the client to be active in his or her health care as a partner is the most criti
