,The personal qualities that a respiratory therapist must have to conduct a successful interview
include
being an active listener, having a genuine concern for the client, and having empathy.

the client. Medicaljargon can sound exclusionary and paternalistic to a client.

ANS: C
External factors, such as a good physical setting, enhance the interviewing process.

office in the hospital or clinic,or the client’s home), efforts should be made to (1) ensure
privacy, (2) prevent interruptions, and (3)secure a comfortable physical environment (e.g.,
,comfortable room temperature, sufficient lighting, absence of noise). An interviewer of
either gender, who acts professionally, should be able to interview a client of either gender.

therapist to do which of the following?

b. 1, 3
c. 1, 2, 3
d. 2, 3, 4

b. 2, 3
c. 3, 4
d. 1, 2, 3
ANS: A
Direct or closed questions are best to gather specific information and speed up the
interview. Open- ended questions are best suited to let the client fully explain his/her
situation and possibly help therespiratory therapist show empathy.
• During the interview the client states, “Every time I climb the stairs I have to stop
to catchmy breath.” Hearing this, the respiratory therapist replies, “So, it sounds
like you get short of breath climbing stairs.” This interviewing technique is called:
• clarification.
• modeling.
• empathy.
, • reflection.
ANS: D
With reflection, part of the client’s statement is repeated. This lets the client know
that whathe/she said was heard. It also encourages the client to elaborate on the
topic.
Clarification, modeling, and empathy are other communication techniques.

silencein which of the following situations?

(use silence) before asking the next question. This pause allows the client to add
something else beforemoving on. The client may also choose to ask a question.

feeling, orstatement made by the client. This may prompt a further discussion. Reflection
helps the client focus on specific areas and continues in his/her own way. Facilitation
encourages clients to say more, to continue with the story. The respiratory therapist
should avoid giving advice, using avoidance language, and using distancing language.

following?
