manifested ta tsignificant tchange, tthe tnurse twould tcall tthe tRRT. tChanges tin tblood tpressure,

t



client’s tblood tpressure twould tbe treassessed tfrequently, tbut tthe tpriority tis tgetting tthe

holistic tor t“whole-person” tapproach tto tcare. tBy tassessing tthe teffect tof tthe tclient’s tculture
t



on thealth tcare, tthis tnurse tis tpracticing tclient-focused tcare. tProviding tfor tbasic tneeds tdoes
t



not tdemonstrate tthis tcompetence. tSimply ttelling tthe tclient tabout tall tupcoming ttests tis
t



not tproviding tempowering teducation. tOrienting tthe tclient tand tfamily tto tthe troom tis tan
t



important tsafety tmeasure, tbut tnot tdirectly trelated tto tdemonstrating tclient-centered tcare.
