|
B) Explaining |to |a |client |the |benefits |of |computer-assisted |robotic |surgical
techniques, |which |the |hospital |recently |implemented
|

D) Performing |continuous |glucose |monitoring |of |a |client |while |the |client |is |in |the
hospital
|
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.

C) Medication |ineffective |due |to |error |in |prescription
, D) Originally |from |Sudan
E) No |family |in |the |area
ANSWER: | A, |B, |D, |E
|
|Feedback:
The |social |conditions |in |which |people |live, |their |income, |social |status, |education,
|literacy, | home |and |work |environment, |support |networks, |gender, |culture, |and
|availability |of |health |services |are |the |social |determinants |of |health. |These |conditions
|have |an |impact |on |the |extent |to |which |a |person |or |community |possesses |the |physical,
|social, |and |personal |resources |necessary |to |attain |and |maintain |health. |A |medical |error
on |the |part |of |the |client's |primary |care |provider |or |nurse |would |not |constitute |a |social
|
|determinant |of |the |client's |health.
