d. Thoroughly orients the client2 and family to the2room ax ax ax ax ax ax ax
CORRECT2ANSWER: A
Competency in client- ax ax
focused care is demonstrated when the nurse focuses on communication, culture, respect compassion, client educ ati
ax ax ax ax ax ax ax ax ax ax ax ax ax ax ax
on, and empowerment. By assessing the effect of the clients culture on health care, this nurse is practicing c lient-
ax ax ax ax ax ax ax ax ax ax ax ax ax ax ax ax ax ax ax
focused care. Providing for basic needs does not demonstrate this competence. Simply telling the client about a
a x a x a x ax a x ax ax ax a x a x a x ax ax ax ax ax
ll upcoming tests is not providing empowering education. Orienting the client and family to the room is an im porta
ax ax ax ax ax ax ax ax ax ax ax ax ax ax ax ax ax ax ax
nt safety measure, but not directly related to demonstrating client-centered care.

The purpose of the Rapid Response Team (RRT) is to intervene when clients are deteriorating before they su f

fer either respiratory or cardiac arrest. Since the client has manifested a significant change, the nurse should call t he

RRT. Changes in blood pressure, mental status, heart rate, and pain are particularly significant.

Documentation is vital, but the nurse must do more than document. The primary care provider should be notified, b ax ax ax ax ax ax ax ax ax ax ax ax ax ax ax ax ax ax
ut this is not the priority over calling the RRT. The clients blood pressure should be reassessed fre quently, but the p
