ACCURATE ANSWER:-A bg




Reasoning :->> bg




Hospital client-centered care considers cultural traditions, personal preferences, values,
bg bg bg bg bg bg bg bg




families, and lifestyles. Hospital clients become active participants in their own care,
bg bg bg bg bg bg bg bg bg bg bg bg




and monitoring health becomes the hospital client's responsibility. To help hospital
bg bg bg bg bg bg bg bg bg bg bg




clients and their healthcare providers make better decisions, the Agency for Healthcare
bg bg bg bg bg bg bg bg bg bg bg bg




Research and Quality (AHRQ) has developed a series of tools that empower hospital
bg bg bg bg bg bg bg bg bg bg bg bg bg




clients and assist providers in achieving desired outcomes, including hospital client-
bg bg bg bg bg bg bg bg bg bg bg




reported functional status indicators. Computer-assisted robotic surgical techniques,
bg bg bg bg bg bg bg




electronic health records, andcontinuous glucose monitoring in the health center are all
bg bg bg bg g
b bg bg bg bg bg bg bg bg




technological advances in healthcare, but they do not help the hospital client become a
bg bg bg bg bg bg bg bg bg bg bg bg bg bg




more active participant in his or her care, and thus are not good examples of hospital
bg bg bg bg bg bg bg bg bg bg bg bg bg bg bg bg




client-centered care.

2. A nursing attendant is caring for an older hospital client who is struggling to
bg bg bg bg bg bg bg bg bg bg bg bg bg




manage her type 2 diabetes mellitus. The nursing attendant should recognize which
bg bg bg bg bg bg bg bg bg bg bg bg




social determinants of thishospital client's health? (Select all that apply.)
bg bg bg bg g
b bg bg bg bg bg bg




A) Household income of $23,000 per year bg bg bg bg bg




B) Reading level of a third grader bg bg bg bg bg




C) Medication ineffective due to error in prescription bg bg bg bg bg bg




D) Originally from Sudan bg bg




E) No family in the area bg bg bg bg




ACCURATE ANSWER:-
bg bg




A, B,D, E bg g
b bg




Reasoning:->>
The social conditions in which people live, their income, social status, education,
bg bg bg bg bg bg bg bg bg bg bg




literacy, home and work environment, support networks, gender, culture, and
bg bg bg bg bg bg bg bg bg bg




availability of health services are the social determinants of health. These conditions
bg bg bg bg bg bg bg bg bg bg bg bg




have an impact on the extent to which a person or community possesses the physical,
bg bg bg bg bg bg bg bg bg bg bg bg bg bg bg




social, and personal resources necessary to attain and maintain health. A medical erroron
bg bg bg bg bg bg bg bg bg bg bg bg bg bg




the part of the hospital client's primary care provider or nursing attendant would not
bg bg bg bg bg bg bg bg bg bg bg bg bg bg




constitute a social determinant of the hospital client's health.

3. A nursing attendant successfully persuades an obese hospital client to perform a
bg bg bg bg bg bg bg bg bg bg bg




weekly weigh-in athome using a digital scale and record the weight in a log. This
bg bg bg g

strategy is an exampleof:
bg bg bg bg g
b




A) Telehealth
B) Health information technology bg bg




C) Personal responsibility for health bg bg bg




D) Evidence-based nursing bg




ACCURATE ANSWER:-C
bg bg




Reasoning:->>
bg




Personal responsibility for health involves active participation in one's own health
bg bg bg bg bg bg bg bg bg bg




through education and lifestyle changes. In this case, the hospital client makes a
bg bg bg bg bg bg bg bg bg bg bg bg bg




positive change in lifestyle by monitoring body weight weekly. Telehealth is the use of
bg bg bg bg bg bg bg bg bg bg bg bg bg bg




electronic information and telecommunications technologies to support long-distance
bg bg bg bg bg bg bg bg




clinical healthcare, hospital client and professional health-related education, public
bg bg bg bg bg bg bg bg bg




health, andhealth administration. Health information technology (HIT) is defined as the
bg bg g
b bg bg bg bg bg bg bg bg bg




comprehensive management of health information and its exchange between
bg bg bg bg bg bg bg bg bg




consumers, providers, government, and insurers in a secure manner. Evidence-based
bg bg bg bg bg bg bg bg bg bg




nursing is the integration of the best evidence available with clinical expertise and the
bg bg bg bg bg bg bg bg bg bg bg bg bg bg




values of the hospital client to increase the quality of care.

4. A nursing attendant performs a variety of tasks as part of the nursing attendant's
bg bg bg bg bg bg bg bg bg bg bg bg bg




position at a healthcenter. Which task best exemplifies public health?
bg bg bg bg g

A) Reading current nursing journals and integrating the latest research into daily bg bg bg bg bg bg bg bg bg bg




practice g
b




B) Instructing a hospital client on how to best care for a suture site at home bg bg bg bg bg bg bg bg bg bg bg bg bg bg




C) Participating in a videoconference call with a hospital client who lives in a remote area bg bg bg bg bg bg bg bg bg bg bg bg bg bg




D) Facilitating a community-wide smoking cessation program one month out of the bg bg bg bg bg bg bg bg bg bg




year g
b




ACCURATE ANSWER:-D bg




Reasoning:->>
Public health is what society does collectively to ensure the conditions exist in which
bg bg bg bg bg bg bg bg bg bg bg bg bg




people can be healthy. A community-wide smoking cessation program is a great
bg bg bg bg bg bg bg bg bg bg bg bg




example of a public health intervention, in that it involves the collective effort of societyto
bg bg bg bg bg bg bg bg bg bg bg bg bg bg bg bg




improve the health of its members. Reading and applying the latest nursing research is
bg bg bg bg bg bg bg bg bg bg bg bg bg bg




an example of evidence-based nursing. Instructing a hospital client on how to best care
bg bg bg bg bg bg bg bg bg bg bg bg bg bg




for a suture site at home is an example of personal responsibility for health, but it is not
bg bg bg bg bg bg bg bg bg bg bg bg bg bg bg bg bg bg




focused on the health of the greater community. Participating in a videoconference call
bg bg bg bg bg bg bg bg bg bg bg bg bg




with a hospital client who lives in a remote area is an example of hospital client-centered
bg bg bg bg bg bg bg bg bg bg bg bg bg bg bg bg




care and of an effective implementation of technology, but it is not particularly related to
bg bg bg bg bg bg bg bg bg bg bg bg bg bg bg




public health.

bg bg bg bg bg bg bg bg bg bg bg

Investigation of disease, referral and follow-up, and case management are all publichealth

nursing interventions but are not domains of public health nursing practice.
