Delivering bad news to patients would be a challenge yet there are communication tips to practice on how to communicate with patients in delivering bad news. First is to build a relationship. This can be done by establishing rapport to have a foundation when needed to deliver a bad news. Second is to demonstrate empathy. One can comfort the patient by putting one in the patient's shoes. Third, speak in plain language. This is done by saying words in vernacular for patient to understand and not in medical terms. Fourth is to understand the client's perspective by clarifying of things he or she meant and if both are on the same page. Fifth, be sure to be available for more interaction. This means if patients would ask more questions as an MA one should be readily available. The one thing though that one should never say to a patient is it won't hurt at all as we know that is not true when receiving bad news.

Multiple donor transplant chains involve multiple donors and recipients "trading" organs to meet the needs of many who require t
melisa1 [442]

The correct answer is "true."

Further Explanation:

There are living transplant chains where people do meet each other and trade organs. These people are the ones receiving and the ones donating. There may be someone who needs a kidney in Colorado and has a match in California. The person in California may have an uncle who needs a liver and they use the "chain" to find someone.

This normally occurs more frequently in other countries and it is called "transplant tourism." However, this can involve money since it is not regulated in many other countries. In the United States, a living donor may donate a kidney or even a part of their liver, but can not make money off the organ.

Kipish [7]

Answer:

"The gloves they provide irritate my hands, so I don't use them."

Explanation:

Pregnant women should take some precautions to increase the chances of their baby being born strong and healthy. Among these precautions, we can emphasize the importance of pregnant women staying away from or protected from chemicals. This is because everything that is absorbed by the pregnant woman's body is passed on to her unborn baby, who has a very fragile baby. For this reason, it is necessary that if the pregnant woman needs to stay in a chemical environment, she has to wear all kinds of protective equipment (such as gloves and mask) to ensure holding of the fetus. A pregnant woman who uses the statement "The gloves they provide irritate my hands, so I don't wear them." show that she is not informed enough about the safety of the fetus.
