ss exemplifies providing patient-centered care? ss ss ss

ANS: A ss




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




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




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




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




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




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




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




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




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




ss care.

Feedback:
The social conditions in which people live, their income, social status, education, literacy,
ss ss ss ss ss ss ss ss ss ss ss ss




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




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




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




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




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




ss health.

D) Evidence-based nursing ss

ss ss ss ss ss ss ss ss ss ss ss




ss education and lifestyle changes. In this case, the client makes a positive changein lifestyle
ss ss ss ss ss ss ss ss ss ss ss ss ss




ss by monitoring body weight weekly. Telehealth is the use of electronic information and
ss ss ss ss ss ss ss ss ss ss ss ss




ss telecommunications technologies to support long-distance clinical healthcare, client and ss ss ss ss ss ss ss ss




ss professional health-related education, public health, and health administration. Health
ss ss ss ss ss ss ss ss




ss information technology (HIT) is defined as the comprehensive management of health
ss ss ss ss ss ss ss ss ss ss




ss information and its exchange between consumers, providers, government, and insurers in
