ANSWER: A g




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




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




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




decisions, the Agency for Healthcare Research and Quality (AHRQ) has developed a series
g g g g g g g g g g g g g




of tools that empower clients and assist providers in achieving desired outcomes, including
g g g g g g g g g g g g g




client-reported functional status indicators. Computer-assisted robotic surgicaltechniques,
g g g g g g g g




electronic health records, andcontinuous glucose monitoring in the hospital are all
g g g g g g g g g g g g




technological advances in healthcare, but they do not help the client become a more active
g g g g g g g g g g g g g g g




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

The social conditions in which people live, their income, social status, education, literacy,
g g g g g g g g g g g g




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




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




to which a person or community possesses the physical, social, and personal resources
g g g g g g g g g g g g g




necessary to attain and maintain health. A medical erroron the part of the client's primary care
g g g g g g g g g g g g g g g g g




provider or nurse would not constitute a social determinant of the client's health.
