when working with a patient who has a language barrier, the medical assistant should ensure simplicity. Keep your communication basic if your patient can only grasp a portion of your original language.

Avoid using slang, and try to use whole phrases that are succinct and to the point. The translation of lengthy explanations or sentences is more difficult.

No matter where care is provided, communication difficulties between nurses and patients are having an increasing impact on nursing practice. The proportion of American homes where a language other than English is spoken at home has increased to one out of every five since just after World War I. Patients with limited English proficiency are those who speak the language poorly (LEP).

Whether their patients don't comprehend what they're saying or they're practicing in a country where they aren't a native speaker, doctors frequently run into language obstacles when providing medical care. Fortunately, there are several of strategies for getting past language problems while maintaining the highest standards of care.

A premature newborn weighing 1950 grams has an order to receive 25 ml fortified human breast milk by gavage tube every 3 hours.
brilliants [131]

Answer:

6.76 ounces daily.

Explanation:

There are 0.0338 ounces in 1 ml of the fluid.

So the calculation is as follows.

Ounces in 1 ml of fortified human breast milk = 0.0338

The amount in ml of fortified human breast milk recieved by a premature newborn every 3 hour = 25 ml

Total hours in one day = 24

The amount in ml of fortified human breast milk recieved by a premature newborn every day = 8 * 25 = 200 ml

(As 3 hrs is multiplied by 8 to make it 24 hrs (a day))

The amount in ounces of fortified human breast milk recieved by a premature newborn every day = 200 ml * 0.0338 = 6.76 ounces.

(As 1 ml contains 0.0338 ounces)

Hence the baby will recieve 6.76 ounces of milk each day.
