Answer to Question 2
Correct Answer: 1
Rationale: The word patient comes from a Latin word meaning to suffer or to bear. Usually, people become patients when they seek assistance because of illness or for surgery. Some nurses believe that the word patient implies passive acceptance of the decisions and care of health professionals, which would be opposite of being proactive in one's health care needs. The term client presents the recipient of health care as a collaborator in that care, along with the people who are providing service. A consumer is an individual, a group of people, or a community that uses a service or commodity.
