Question

The nurse is admitting a client to the hospital. The nurse gives the client information about client rights while in the hospital. Which statement by the client indicates that more teaching is needed?

Answer 1

Answer:

The doctor can copy my information and send it to my son

Explanation:

If the nurse is giving the client information about his or her rights, this relates to the issue of privacy and confidentiality, which is an important concept when conducting research. For the client to see tell the doctor that her information can be copied and sent to her son, this clearly shows that she does not understand the concept of privacy and confidentiality, as the doctor has no right to relay client information to anyone.

Answer 2

Answer:

Option B

Explanation:

Patients rights are the rights that patients has concerning his or her(their) health or well-being. For instance now, patients have the right to privacy, the right to know about their treatment, to know about their medical information and so on.

If you look at option A: "I can get a copy of my medical record if I want to read it". This statement shows that the client is getting more understanding of his or her right to his or her medical information. Same thing with option C and D which gives clients right to privacy.

Option B: "The doctor can copy my information and send it to my son". This statement shows that the client need more teaching because the doctor has no such right.
