providing patient-centered care?
A) Having a client complete a self-reported functional status indicator and then reviewing it with the

B) Explaining to a client the benefits of computer-assisted robotic surgical techniques, which the
hospital recently implemented
C) Recording a client's signs and symptoms in an electronic health record
D) Performing continuous glucose monitoring of a client while the client is in the hospital
accurate ANSWER: a
Feedback:
Patient-centered care considers cultural traditions, personal preferences, values, families, and lifestyles.
Clients become active participants in their own care, and monitoring health becomes the client's
responsibility. To help clients and their healthcare providers make better decisions, the agency for
healthcare research and quality (ahrq) has developed a series of tools that empower clients and assist
providers in achieving desired outcomes, including client-reported functional status indicators. Computer-
assisted robotic surgical techniques, electronic health records, and continuous glucose monitoring in the
hospital are all technological advances in healthcare, but they do not help the client become a more
active participant in his or her care, and thus are not good examples of patient -centered care.
Origin: chapter 1- public health nursing, 2
