MULTIPLE CHOICES
1. A Nurse Wishes To Provide Client-Centered Care In All Interactions. Which Action By The Nurse
Best Demonstrates This Concept?
A. Assesses For Cultural Influences Affecting Health Care
B. Ensures That All The Clients Basic Needs Are Met
C. Tells The Client And Family About All Upcoming Tests
D. Thoroughly Orients The Client And Family To The Room
ANSWER;A
Competency In Client-Focused Care Is Demonstrated When The Nurse Focuses On Communication,
Culture, 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 This Competence. Simply Telling The Client About All Upcoming Tests Is Not
Providing Empowering Education. Orienting The Client And Family To The Room Is An Important Safety
Measure, But Not Directly Related To Demonstrating Client-Centered Care.
DIF: Understanding/Comprehension REF: 3
KEY: Patient-Centered Care| Culture MSC: Integrated Process: Caring NOT: Client Needs Category:

The Nurse Should Call The RRT. Changes In Blood Pressure, Mental Status, Heart Rate, And Pain Are
Particularly Significant.
