It is important for the physician to know about the complaint because it is the right of the client (Mrs. Olsen) to know the outcome of her medical diagnosis performed by physician.

<h3>The legal rights of a patient or client</h3>

The legal rights of a patient in the hospital should be maintained and respected by the medical personnel. These can make a medical personnel liable if they don't acknowledge them.

Some of the legal rights of a client/ patient in the hospital include:

  • A patient has the right to know the outcome of their medical diagnosis.

  • A patient has the right to respectful care given by competent workers.

  • A patient has the right to know the names and the jobs of his or her caregivers.

  • A patient has the right to privacy with respect to his or her medical condition.

  • A patient's care and treatment will be discussed only with those who need to know.

Therefore the medical assistant should call the attention of the physician in charge of Mrs. Olsen so that the physician can explain the outcome of her medical diagnosis to her.

Who will get the most benefit from an iron supplement?
Marysya12 [62]
Reproductive-age females will benefit the most from iron supplement. During menstrual cycle women get to lose some amount of blood, they need more irons to replace the lost irons because the body uses irons to make extra blood for a woman and her baby too when the woman is pregnant. Iron also helps move oxygen from your lungs to the rest of the body and to the baby. Thus, getting enough iron can prevent conditions of too few red blood cells that can make a woman tired (a condition known as anemia).
