Answer to Question 1

B
The SBARR method of communication has been proven to be effective when communicating in health care teams between team members. The acronym SBARR stands for Situation, Background, Assessment, Recommendation, and Response.

Answer to Question 2

C
The SBARR (Situation, Background, Assessment, Recommendation, and Response) method of communication assists team members with having situational awareness and clearly communicating the present situation to others. In this scenario, the assessment is decreased peristalsis, abdominal discomfort, and narcotic analgesic use, which details the patient's condition for the physician. Ms. Smith hasn't had a bowel movement in two days, which she states is unusual for her, is background information. Can we start her on Colace? is the recommendation. I'm calling about Ms. Smith in 414 is giving the physician the identity of the patient you are calling about and setting the situation.
