Answer to Question 2

An emergency assessment is a rapid assessment of a client who is experiencing a life-threatening problem or crisis. A focused assessment is limited in scope to focus on a particular need or health care problem or potential health care risk. A comprehensive assessment is usually completed on admission to a health care agency or first visit to a health care provider. A follow-up assessment is also considered an ongoing assessment that includes systematic monitoring and observation related to specific health problems or risk factors.
