Answer to Question 1

ANS: B
The physician's order form contains all procedures and treatments ordered by the health care provider. A summary sheet provides a brief overview of the hospital course at discharge. Physician's progress notes provide regular observations on the patient's course of treatment and response. A history and physical examination form provides information about baseline information from the patient.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: B, C, E
An attitude of shared input into the goals and outcomes can encourage the patient into a therapeutic alliance. Therefore, the patient should be taught to help monitor the parameters used to evaluate therapy, keep records of essential data, and contact the health care provider for advice rather than alter or discontinue the medication entirely. The health care provider, not the hospital, should be contacted. In the event that the patient, family, or significant others do not understand all aspects of the continuing therapy prescribed, they may be referred to a community-based agency for help in achieving long-term health care requirements.
