Answer to Question 1
A
Patients are more likely to reveal problems when the suspected abuser is not present in the room. Psychological abuse as well as obvious physical injury or neglect (e.g., evidence of malnutrition or presence of bruising on the extremities or trunk) should be assessed. If you have suspicion of abuse, find a way to interview the patient privately. If you assess a pattern of findings indicating abuse, most states mandate a report to a social service center. (Refer to state guidelines.) Obtain immediate consultation with a health care provider, social worker, and other support staff to faci-litate placement in a safer environment.
Answer to Question 2
C
The medical record helps to ensure that all health team members are working toward a common goal of providing safe and effective care. Documentation can be used for reimbursement but it is not to invoice the nurse, but to invoice patients and/or insurance companies. It protects the clini-cian in cases of a malpractice suit, not the patient. It does not contribute to a worldwide databank for trends in health care, but it can be used for medical or nursing research.
