Competency in client-focused care is demonstrated when the nurse focuses on communication, culture,
qo qo qo qo qo qo qo qo qo qo qo qo
respect compassion, client education, and empowerment. By assessing the effect of the clients culture on

health care, this nurse is practicing client-focused care. Providing for basic needs does not demonstrate
qo qo qo qo qo qo qo qo qo qo qo qo qo qo qo
this competence. Simplytelling the client about all upcoming tests is not providing empowering

education.

d. Repeat blood pressure measurement in 15 minutes. qo qo qo qo qo qo
ANSWER: A
The purpose of the Rapid Response Team (RRT) is to intervene when clients are deteriorating before they
qo qo qo qo qo qo qo qo qo qo qo qo qo qo qo qo
qo suffer either respiratory or cardiac arrest. Since the client hasmanifested a significant change, the nurse
qo qo qo qo qo qo qo qo qo qo qo qo qo qo
qo should call the RRT. Changes in blood pressure, mental status, heart rate, and pain are particularly
qo qo qo qo qo qo qo qo qo qo qo qo qo qo qo
qo significant.
Documentation is vital, but the nurse must do more than document. The primary care provider qo qo qo qo qo qo qo q o q o qo qo qo qo qo
qo should be notified, but this is not the priority over calling the RRT. The clients blood pressure should
qo qo qo qo qo qo qo qo qo qo qo qo qo qo q o qo qo
q o be reassessed frequently, but the priority is getting the rapid care to the client.

qo qo qo qo qo qo qo qo qo
ANSWER: A
Each action could be important for the client or family to perform. However, encouraging the client to
qo qo qo qo qo qo qo qo qo qo qo qo qo qo qo qo
qo be active in his or her health care as a partner is the mostcritical. The other actions are very limited in
qo qo qo qo qo qo qo qo qo qo qo qo qo qo qo qo qo qo qo qo
qo scope and do not provide the broad protection that being active and involved does.
