,RATIONALE: The complete, or total health, assessment is often collected in a primary care
setting, such as a clinic or office. It is also collected when an individual is first admitted to an
acute or long-term care facility. The purpose is to collect data on current and past health
status against which future changes can be measured.
Clients experiencing short-term, non-life-threatening issues require a problem-centered
assessment. Consider the vacationer whose child gets a rash and is taken to an urgent care
center.
Follow-up assessments are routinely completed to monitor the health status of individuals
with chronic diseases.
Emergency assessments are completed when a client’s safety and/or life is in imminent
danger, such as during a cardiac arrest, drug overdose, or at the scene of an accident.
What determines the frequency of assessment needed for each individual?
Insurance company regulations
The person's health and wellness needs
Guidelines from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC)
The age of the individual being assessed
The person's health and wellness needs
RATIONALE: The correct answer is the person’s health and wellness needs.
Data obtained from each assessment determines not only treatment for current alterations in
health, but the frequency and type of follow-up assessments. While the CDC and health
,insurance companies often provide evidence-based recommendations for care, it is the
clinical judgment of the care team that makes the final determination.
While age is included in the assessment data for each individual, it is not the only evidence
used to determine assessment frequency.
