ANSWER: A e




Feedback:
Patient-centered care considers cultural traditions, personal preferences, values, families, e e e e e e e e




and lifestyles. Clients become active participants in their own care, and monitoring health
e e e e e e e e e e e e e




becomes the client's responsibility. To help clients and their healthcare providers make
e e e e e e e e e e e e




better decisions, the Agency for Healthcare Research and Quality (AHRQ) has developed
e e e e e e e e e e e e




a series of tools that empower clients and assist providers in achieving desired outcomes,
e e e e e e e e e e e e e e




including client-reported functional status indicators. Computer-assisted robotic surgical
e e e e e e e e




techniques, electronic health records, andcontinuous glucose monitoring in the hospital are
e e e e e e e e e e e e




all technological advances in healthcare, but they do not help the client become a more
e e e e e e e e e e e e e e e




active participant in his or hercare, and thus are not good examples of patient-centered
e e e e e e e e e e e e e e e




care.

2. A nurse is caring for an older client who is struggling to manage her type 2 diabetes
e e e e e e e e e e e e e e e e




mellitus. The nurse should recognize which social determinants of this client's
e e e e e e e e e e e




health?(Select all that apply.)

E Feedback:
e e




The social conditions in which people live, their income, social status, education, literacy,
e e e e e e e e e e e e




e home and work environment, support networks, gender, culture, and availability of health
e e e e e e e e e e e




services are the social determinants of health. These conditions have an impact on the
e e e e e e e e e e e e e e




extent to which a person or community possesses the physical, social, and personal
e e e e e e e e e e e e e




resources necessary to attain and maintain health. A medical erroron the part of the client's
e e e e e e e e e e e e e e e e




primary care provider or nurse would not constitute a social determinant of the client's
e e e e e e e e e e e e e e




health.
