When you go to the hospital and have to stay overnight, you assume you've been admitted to the hospital. But, depending on your health care needs, you may only be "under observation" as an outpatient.

A new law this year requires hospitals to make sure you understand the difference.

Thanks to a complex system of rules and regulations for hospitals, providers, private insurers and Medicare/Medicaid patients, you can be in the hospital for several days - but classified as an "observation" outpatient. Which means you're not officially "admitted."

The rules mandate that hospitals cannot officially "admit" you as an inpatient unless you meet the medical criteria for admission. If, in the doctor's view, you don't meet the medical criteria for admission, but a brief hospital stay is still warranted to monitor your condition - you're placed on "observation status." This can even apply if you're in the hospital for routine joint replacement with private insurance, for example, and are scheduled for discharge after one night. You're in the hospital, but you're not technically admitted.

The nurse is working with a client who has quit several jobs and no longer sends financial support to the client's two children
VARVARA [1.3K]

Options for the question have not been provided. They are as follows:

A) "How is not working right now affecting you?"

B) "How do you expect your kids to be provided for?"

C) "You need to somehow find a way to support your children."

D) "Can the children's mother can get by for a while until you get better?"

Answer:

A) "How is not working right now affecting you?"

Explanation:

According to the norms of responsible parenting, the client should be working to support his family. However due to his condition, he is not working right now. If the nurse would have addressed this problem directly, it could have sounded very negative and hurt the client's sentiments. Since he is already not keeping well, any such negative remark can further make him unwell.

Instead the nurse found a positive way to address this situation. She asked him about his feelings and experiences after quitting the job. In this way she is bringing up the topic of quitting the job but also taking in consideration the client's sentiments. When the client answers this question and the conversation begins, the nurse can subsequently inquire about his family and their financial issue too.
