The correct answer is; Battery.

Further Explanation:

If the patient does not want you to touch them then it is classified as a battery offense. Anyone has the right to refuse treatment unless it is a lifesaving measure.

The patient has the right to call police or ask for police to be called. Always ask a patient before touching them if it is okay to do a procedure such as taking vital signs. It is a misdemeanor and you can be jailed or issued a citation to appear before a judge.

Ms. Ward, a new patient, complains of sinus pain. Expanded problem-focused history and exam are completed, and sinus X-rays are
Murrr4er [49]

Answer: check her medical history to see if she has had these issues before during your physical exam alway check above and below the area the patient is complaining about. So for sinuses palpate the sinus drainage passage with the digits of your fingers. For below palpate the back of the neck ask if there’s any tenderness or pain also examine the throat and check the lymph nodes and tonsils. Do an oral exam look at the tonsils tongue teeth look for any inflammation or redness. Look in the nasal cavity to see if you see a deviated septum dryness bleeding any blockage after a full physical exam like that order your x-ray which would typically not be done on an acute patient with these symptoms but in a patient with chronic issues continuing I would immediately get a consult to a specialist which in her case would be an ENT( ears,nose,throat). A simple clinical treatment for sinus issues would to just put the patient on a antihistamine some examples are (Benadryl, Allegra and Clara tin) I’d recommend the patient follow up within a week to see if that helped at all and then if not follow through with the plan I set in place above. If you do place the patient on an antibiotic I would recommend (amoxicillin).

pishuonlain [190]

The nurse uses a variety of therapeutic communication skills when working with clients. Assess the client's perception of a problem is a therapeutic goal that can be accomplished through the use of therapeutic communication skills.

A group of methods known as therapeutic communication put the patients' physical, mental, and emotional well first. While maintaining a level of professional distance and objectivity, nurses support and enlighten patients.

Therefore, the goal of therapeutic communication is to support clinicians in establishing trust with patients while also assisting patients and clinicians in working effectively and efficiently together to promote the patient's physical and emotional welfare.

When the same nurse asks the patient if they have any questions or concerns, explains why they are completing the chores, speaks in a friendly and inviting tone, and shows the patient through body language that their opinions are appreciated, that is an example of therapeutic nursing communication.
