All clients will be offered 3 meals and two snacks in a 24hour period' is an example of what?

Correct Answer: B

Rationale: This is a policy a facility-wide rule setting a standard for client nutrition, ensuring consistency and care quality. Privacy involves confidentiality, not meal schedules. Procedure details how to implement (e.g., serving steps), not the rule itself. A problem implies an issue, not a directive. Health care aides follow policies to meet nutritional needs, reporting deviations (e.g., refusal) to supervisors. Understanding this as a policy clarifies their role in upholding it, not creating or troubleshooting it, a structural guide for daily practice.

Correct Answer: B

Rationale: All workers and professionals uphold the Resident's Bill of Rights e.g., dignity, privacy not just doctors/nurses , activity staff , or nursing directors . PSWs ensure rights daily, like knocking before entering. Limiting this duty risks neglecting rights; all staff share it per regulations. This broad responsibility empowers PSWs to advocate e.g., reporting violations ensuring holistic respect, a legal and ethical cornerstone of their role in long-term care settings.

Correct Answer: B

Rationale: Knocking supports privacy control over personal space unlike confidentiality (A, information), assistance , or services . PSWs honor this right e.g., awaiting permission per the Resident's Bill. Ignoring it invades dignity, risking distress. Privacy empowers clients, a daily PSW practice ensuring respect and autonomy, distinct from data protection or aid, fundamental to trust in care relationships.

Correct Answer: D

Rationale: Love and belonging are met by family and friends per Maslow, not self-actualization , self-esteem , or safety . PSWs see this e.g., a visit lifting spirits supporting emotional bonds after basics. Misplacing it risks neglecting social needs; love isn't esteem or peak growth. Encouraging visits aids client morale, a PSW role in holistic care. This level, above survival, shapes their work, ensuring emotional health complements physical support, a practical application of hierarchy in fostering client well-being.

Correct Answer: D

Rationale: Ambulatory suits non-bedridden patients e.g., walking unlike chronic (A, long-term), convalescent (B, recovery), or acute (C, urgent). PSWs assist here e.g., outings promoting mobility. Misnaming risks mismatch; ambulatory fits active clients. This term guides their support, ensuring appropriate activity levels, a practical focus in community care settings.
