4. The provider is preparing to take a health history for a new patient. He takes the
patient to a private room and asks the patient to don a hospital gown. After stepping
outside to give the patient sufficient time to change, he then comes back in and asks
permission to conduct the history. He sits next to the patient at eye level, discreetly
observes the patient for any sensory deficits, and asks the patient if he may take brief
notes of the conversation. During the conversation, he gives the patient time to
Answerquestions fully. He makes sure that his questions do not contain technical terms
and quietly observes the patient’s nonverbal behaviors throughout. Which mistake did
the provider make?

for their comfort.
B) He should not have omitted technical terminology. Patients like having a chance
to learn.
