Answer:

B.

Explanation:

In a situation that is quickly escalating, you need to try to do your best and try to de-escalate the situation. This can be done by staying calm, listening to what the individual has to say, and acknowledge the patient's frustration. This should cause the individual to feel as though you are taking an interest in listening to him/her and helping them find a solution. What should be avoided at all costs is making physical contact with the patient as it might be taken as a sign of aggression/hostility and escalate the situation even more.

Critical Thinking Exercises

Universal Doctor Speaker is recommended, a multilingual communication tool for healthcare professionals and patients from diverse backgrounds.

<h3>Communication</h3>

Communication between the doctor and the patient is fundamental in the provision of health services. Many clinics and hospitals offer the services of medical interpreters in person or via video and telephone. And precisely in Massachusetts we have the international organization of medical interpreters, the famous IMIA.

With this information, we can conclude that a good understanding between the health professional and the patient is essential, and several tools can be used when they do not speak the same language.

Looking for various opinions on organ donation for a project.
Vladimir79 [104]
I am an organ donor. I believe that if my body can make someone survive an illness (cancer/leukemia) or recover from a condition such as blindness or a missing limb, then It is my duty to allow for that to happen. When I die, my soul will go on but my body will just rot so why not let someone use up what they can. I am especially strong in my opinion when dealing with pediatric illnesses. If a child needs my lungs or my kidneys, they should take them and live a long life. After I pass, they are useless to me!
