ANSWER:J A
RATIONALE:
Patient-
centered care considers cultural traditions, personal preferences, values, families, and lifestyl
es. Clients become active participants in their own care, and monitoring health becomesJthe c
lient'sJresponsibility. To help clients and their healthcare providers make better decisions, th
e Agency for Healthcare Research and Quality (AHRQ) has developed a series of tools that e
mpower clients and assistJproviders in achieving desired outcomes, includingJclient- reported
functional status indicators. Computer-
assisted robotic surgical techniques, electronicJhealth records, andcontinuousJglucose monit
oring in the hospital are all technological advances in healthcare, but they do not helpJthe clie
ntJbecome a more active participant in his or hercare, and thus are not good examples of patie
nt-centered care.
