Question 1 of 5

What are the two essential components of transitional care discharge model that is used in Canada and Scotland?

Correct Answer: A

Rationale: Two essential components of the transitional care discharge model are peer support and bridging staff. Peer support is provided by a consumer now living successfully in the community. Bridging staff refers to an overlap between hospital and community care—hospital staff do not terminate their therapeutic relationship with the client until a therapeutic relationship has been established with the community care provider. This model requires collaboration, administrative support, and adequate funding to effectively promote the patient's health and well-being and prevent relapse and rehospitalization. Poverty among people with mental illness is a significant barrier to maintaining housing. Mentally ill persons often rely on government entitlements for their income which forces people to have to choose continuation of the entitlement and dependence versus working inconsistently in unskilled, part-time, and low-paying jobs with no health insurance.

Question 5 of 5

The nurse is assigned a client from another culture. Which theorist is best utilized to guide the nurse in understanding the impact of culture on treatment?

Correct Answer: B

Rationale: Madeline Leininger developed a new field with transcultural nursing which emphasized that nursing care would be affected by culture because of differences in definition of health, illness, and care. Imogene King focused on care of the client with the goal of health but this wasn't specific with culture. Jean Watson developed a theory of transpersonal care that was based on the relationship between the nurse and patient but did not include culture as a focus. Hildegard Peplau also focused on the nurse-client relationship but wasn't specific to culture with this.
