1. A nurse is striving to practice patient-
ci ci ci ci ci ci
centered care at a hospital. Which action bestexemplifies providing patient-
ci ci ci ci ci ci ci ic ci ci
centered care? ci
A) Having a client complete a self- ci ci ci ci ci
reported functional status indicator and thenreviewing it with the client ci ci ci ci ci ic ci ci ci ci
B) Explaining to a client the benefits of computer- ci ci ci ci ci ci ci
assisted robotic surgicaltechniques, which the hospital recently implem ci ci ic ci ci ci ci ci
ented
C) Recording a client's signs and symptoms in an electronic health record ci ci ci ci ci ci ci ci ci ci
D) Performing continuous glucose monitoring of a client while the client is in the ci ci ci ci ci ci ci ci ci ci ci ci ic
hospital
Ans: A ci
Feedback:
Patient-
centered care considers cultural traditions, personal preferences, values, families, and li
ci ci ci ci ci ci ci ci ci ci
festyles. Clients become active participants in their own care, and monitoring health be
ci ci ci ci ci ci ci ci ci ci ci ci
comes the client's responsibility. To help clients and their healthcare providers make bet
ci ci ci ci ci ci ci ci ci ci ci ci
ter decisions, the Agency for Healthcare Research and Quality (AHRQ) has developed
ci ci ci ci ci ci ci ci ci ci ci ci
a series of tools that empower clients and assist providers in achieving desired outcome
ci ci ci ci ci ci ci ci ci ci ci ci ci
s, including client-reported functional status indicators. Computer-

2. A nurse is caring for an older client who is struggling to manage her type 2 diabetes
ci ci ci ci ci ci ci ci ci ci ci ci ci ci ci ci ci
mellitus. The nurse should recognize which social determinants of this client's health?

k:
The social conditions in which people live, their income, social status, education, liter
ci ci ci ci ci ci ci ci ci ci ci ci
acy, home and work environment, support networks, gender, culture, and availability
ci ci ci ci ci ci ci ci ci ci ci
of health services are the social determinants of health. These conditions have an impa
ci ci ci ci ci ci ci ci ci ci ci ci ci
ct on the extent to which a person or community possesses the physical, social, and pe
ci ci ci ci ci ci ci ci ci ci ci ci ci ci ci
rsonal resources necessary to attain and maintain health. A medical erroron the part of
ci ci ci ci ci ci ci ci ci ci ic ci ci ci ci
the client's primary care provider or nurse would not constitute a social determinant of
ci ci ci ci ci ci ci ci ci ci ci ci ci c
the client's health.

A) Telehealth
B) Health information technology ci ci

D) Evidence-

Feedback:
Personal responsibility for health involves active participation in one's own health thro
ci ci ci ci ci ci ci ci ci ci ci
ugh education and lifestyle changes. In this case, the client makes a positive changein lif
ci ci ci ci ci ci ci ci ci ci ci ci ci ic ci
estyle by monitoring body weight weekly. Telehealth is the use of electronic informatio
ci ci ci ci ci ci ci ci ci ci ci ci
n and telecommunications technologies to support long-
ci ci ci ci ci ci
distance clinical healthcare, client and professional health-
ci ci ci ci ci ci
related education, public health, and health administration. Health information technolo

4. A nurse performs a variety of tasks as part of the nurse's position at a hospital. Whicht
ci ci ci ci ci ci ci ci ci ci ci ci ci ci ci ci ic
ask best exemplifies public health?
ci ci ci ci
A) Reading current nursing journals and integrating the latest research into daily ci ci ci ci ci ci ci ci ci ci ci
practice
B) Instructing a client on how to best care for a suture site at home ci ci ci ci ci ci ci ci ci ci ci ci ci

D) Facilitating a community- ci ci
wide smoking cessation program one month out of theyear ci ci ci ci ci ci ci ci ic
Ans: D ci
Feedback:
Public health is what society does collectively to ensure the conditions exist in which pe
ci ci ci ci ci ci ci ci ci ci ci ci ci ci
ople can be healthy. A community-
ci ci ci ci ci
wide smoking cessation program is a great example of a public health intervention, in th
ci ci ci ci ci ci ci ci ci ci ci ci ci ci
at it involves the collective effort of societyto improve the health of its members. Readi
ci ci ci ci ci ci ci ic ci ci ci ci ci ci ci
ng and applying the latest nursing research is an example of evidence-
ci ci ci ci ci ci ci ci ci ci ci
based nursing. Instructing a client on how to best care for a suture site at home is an exa
ci ci ci ci ci ci ci ci ci ci ci ci ci ci ci ci ci ci
mple of personal responsibility for health, but it is not focused on the health of the great
ci ci ci ci ci ci ci ci ci ci ci ci ci ci ci ci
er community. Participating in a videoconference call with a client who lives in a remote
ci ci ci ci ci ci ci ci ci ci ci ci ci ci
area is an example of patient-
ci ci ci ci ci ci
centered care and of an effective implementation of technology, but it is not particularly r
ci ci ci ci ci ci ci ci ci ci ci ci ci ci
elated to public health. ci ci ci
