NCLEX RN Exam Preview Answers - Nurselytic

Correct Answer: D

Rationale: After a symptom is identified, the first effort at treatment is often self-treatment. The availability of over-the-counter medications, the relatively high literacy level of Americans, and the influence of the internet and mass media in communicating health-related information to the general population have contributed to the high percentage of cases of self-treatment. Health care providers are recognizing the value of a wide variety of alternative, complementary, and traditional interventions. Many self-treatments, such as over-the-counter medications, are effective. Self-treatment is not always less expensive.
Choice A is incorrect as health care providers are recognizing the value of self-treatment.
Choice B is incorrect because self-treatment can be effective in many cases.
Choice C is incorrect as self-treatment is not always less expensive; it depends on the specific treatment being used.
