1. A nurse is striving to practice patient-centered care at a hospital. Which
uk uk uk uk uk uk uk uk uk uk uk


action bestexemplifies providing patient-centered care?
uk uk uk uk uk uk


A) Having a client complete a self-reported functional status indicator and
uk uk uk uk uk uk uk uk uk


thenreviewing it with the client
uk uk uk uk uk uk


B) Explaining to a client the benefits of computer-assisted robotic uk uk uk uk uk uk uk uk


surgicaltechniques, which the hospital recently implemented

C) Recording a client's signs and symptoms in an electronic health record uk uk uk uk uk uk uk uk uk uk


D) Performing continuous glucose monitoring of a client while the client is uk uk uk uk uk uk uk uk uk uk


in thehospital uk uk uk


Ans: A uk


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


families, and lifestyles. Clients become active participants in their own care, and
uk uk uk uk uk uk uk uk uk uk uk uk


monitoring health becomes the client's responsibility. To help clients and their
uk uk uk uk uk uk uk uk uk uk uk


healthcare providers make better decisions, the Agency for Healthcare Research
uk uk uk uk uk uk uk uk uk uk


and Quality (AHRQ) has developed a series of tools that empower clients and
uk uk uk uk uk uk uk uk uk uk uk uk uk


assist providers in achieving desired outcomes, including client-reported functional
uk uk uk uk uk uk uk uk uk


status indicators. Computer-assisted robotic surgical techniques, electronic health
uk uk uk uk uk uk uk uk


records, andcontinuous glucose monitoring in the hospital are all technological
uk uk uk uk uk uk uk uk uk uk uk


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


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


care.

2. A nurse is caring for an older client who is struggling to manage her type 2
uk uk uk uk uk uk uk uk uk uk uk uk uk uk uk


diabetes mellitus. The nurse should recognize which social determinants of this
uk uk uk uk uk uk uk uk uk uk uk


client's health?(Select all that apply.)

areaAns: A, B, D, E
uk uk u k uk uk uk


Feedback:
uk


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


literacy, home and work environment, support networks, gender, culture, and
uk uk uk uk uk uk uk uk uk uk


availability of health services are the social determinants of health. These
uk uk uk uk uk uk uk uk uk uk uk


conditions have an impact on the extent to which a person or community
uk uk uk uk uk uk uk uk uk uk uk uk uk


possesses the physical, social, and personal resources necessary to attain and
uk uk uk uk uk uk uk uk uk uk uk


maintain health. A medical erroron the part of the client's primary care provider
uk uk uk uk uk k
u uk uk uk uk uk uk uk uk


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

,3. A nurse successfully persuades an obese client to perform a weekly weigh-in at
uk uk uk uk uk uk uk uk uk uk uk uk


homeusing a digital scale and record the weight in a log. This strategy is an
uk uk uk uk uk uk uk uk uk uk uk uk uk uk uk uk


example of:
uk uk


A) Telehealth
B) Health information technology uk uk


C) Personal responsibility for health uk uk uk


D) Evidence-based
nursingAns: C
uk uk uk


Feedback:
Personal responsibility for health involves active participation in one's own health
uk uk uk uk uk uk uk uk uk uk


through education and lifestyle changes. In this case, the client makes a positive
uk uk uk uk uk uk uk uk uk uk uk uk uk


changein lifestyle by monitoring body weight weekly. Telehealth is the use of
uk uk uk uk uk uk uk uk uk uk uk uk uk


electronic information and telecommunications technologies to support long-
uk uk uk uk uk uk uk uk


distance clinical healthcare, client and professional health-related education, public
uk uk uk uk uk uk uk uk


health, and health administration. Health information technology (HIT) is defined
uk uk uk uk uk uk uk uk uk uk


as the comprehensive management of health information and its exchange
uk uk uk uk uk uk uk uk uk uk


between consumers, providers, government, and insurers in a secure manner.

4. A nurse performs a variety of tasks as part of the nurse's position at a hospital.
uk uk uk uk uk uk uk uk uk uk uk uk uk uk uk


Whichtask best exemplifies public health?
uk uk uk uk uk uk

dailypractice

B) Instructing a client on how to best care for a suture site at home uk uk uk uk uk uk uk uk uk uk uk uk uk

D) Facilitating a community-wide smoking cessation program one month out of uk uk uk uk uk uk uk uk uk


theyear uk uk


Ans: D uk


Feedback:
Public health is what society does collectively to ensure the conditions exist in
uk uk uk uk uk uk uk uk uk uk uk uk


which people can be healthy. A community-wide smoking cessation program is a
uk uk uk uk uk uk uk uk uk uk uk uk


great example of a public health intervention, in that it involves the collective
uk uk uk uk uk uk uk uk uk uk uk uk uk


effort of societyto improve the health of its members. Reading and applying the
uk uk uk uk uk uk uk uk uk uk uk uk uk uk


latest nursing research is an example of evidence-based nursing. Instructing a
uk uk uk uk uk uk uk uk uk uk uk


client on how to best care for a suture site at home is an example of personal
uk uk uk uk uk uk uk uk uk uk uk uk uk uk uk uk uk


responsibility for health, but it is not focused on the health of the greater
uk uk uk uk uk uk uk uk uk uk uk uk uk uk


community. Participating in a videoconference call with a client who lives in a
uk uk uk uk uk uk uk uk uk uk uk uk uk


remote area is an example of patient-centered care and of an effective
uk uk uk uk uk uk uk uk uk uk uk uk


implementation of technology, but it is not particularly related to public health.
