• ―We cannot let him keep his stone because it violates our infection control
policy.‖
• ―We don’t know yet if your father has another kidney stone, so we
must analyze this one.‖

father’s permission, we will examine the stone and request that it be returned to
him‖ is the most appropriate response.

• ―What is your age, race, and educational level?‖
• ―What types of symptoms have you been having?‖
• ―Why do you think you are having these symptoms?‖

• A 22-year-old female nurse is interviewing an 86-year-old male patient. The
patient avoids eye contact and answers questions only by saying, ―Yeah,‖ ―No,‖
or ―I guess so.‖ Which of the following is appropriate for the interviewer to say
or ask?
• ―We will be able to communicate better if you look at me.‖
• ―It’s hard for me to gather useful information because your answers are so short.‖
• ―Are you uncomfortable talking with me?‖
• ―Does your religion make it hard for you to answer my questions?‖
ANS: C

and to talkabout it; the other choices are less respectful.

toward you and pointedly blinking his eyes. Knowing that he is from England, your

• ask whether he has any questions.
• ask whether he would prefer to speak to the clinician.
• tell him that it is all right to be angry.

so, whenthey lean in toward you, they are probably poised to ask a question.
