A g t primary g t factor g t in g t patient g t treatment g t includes g t consideration g t of g t the

4. When g t a g t patient‘s g t family g t asks g t why g t their g t chronically g t mentally g t ill g t adult
g t child g t is g t being gtdischarged g t to g t a g t community-based g t living g t facility, g t the

g t nurse g t responds:


a. ―It g t is g t a g t way g t to g t meet g t the g t need g t for g t social g t support.‖
b. ―It g t is g t too gt expensive g t to gt keep gt stabilized gt patients g t in gt acute gt care
g t settings.‖


c. ―This g t type g t of g t facility gt will g t provide g t the g t specialized gt care g t that g t is g t needed.‖
d. ―Being g t out g t in g t the g t community g t will g t help g t provide g t hope g t and g t purpose
g t for g t living.‖

ANS: g t D
Hospitalization g t may g t be g t necessary g t for g t acute g t care, g t but, g t when g t patients g t are
g t stabilized, g t they g t move g t into g t community-based, g t patient-centered g t settings g t or g t are

g t discharged g t home g t with gtcontinued g t outpatient g t treatment g t in g t the g t community.

g t Concentrated g t efforts g t are g t made g t to gtreduce g t the g t patient‘s g t sick g t role g t by

g t providing g t opportunities g t for g t the g t development g t of g t a gtpurposeful g t life g t and

gtinstilling g t hope g t for g t each g t patient‘s g t future. g t Although gtsocial g t support g t is gtimportant,

g t such g t a g t living g t arrangement g t is g t not g t the g t only g t way g t to g t achieve g t it. g t Although

g t acute gtcare g t is g t expensive, g t it g t is g t not g t the g t major g t concern g t when g t determining

g t long-term g t care g t options. gtCommunity-based g t facilities g t are g t not g t the g t only g t option

g t for g t specialized g t care.

5. What g t is g t the g t best g t explanation g t to g t offer g t when g t the g t mother g t of g t a
g t chronically g t ill g t teenage gtpatient g t asks, g t ―Under g t what g t circumstances

g t would g t he g t be g t considered g t incompetent?‖
a. ―When gtyou g t can gtprovide gtthe g t court gtwith gtenough gtevidence g t to gtshow gtthat gthe
g t is g t not gtable gtto gtcare gtfor gthimself gtsafely.‖


b. ―It g t is g t not g t likely g t that g t someone g t his g t age g t would g t be gt determined g t to
g t be g t incompetent gtregardless gtof gthis gtmental gtcondition.‖


c. ―He g t would g t have g t to g t engage g t in g t behavior g t that g t would g t result gt in gt harm
g t to g t himself g t or g t to gtsomeone gtelse; gtlike gtyou gtor gthis gtsiblings.‖


d. ―If g t the g t illness g t becomes g t so g t severe g t that g t his g t judgment g t is g t impaired g t to
g t the g t point g t whe gtthe g t decisions g t he g t makes g t are gtharmful g t to gthimself gtor gtto re
gtothers.‖

When g t a g t person g t is g t unable g t to g t cognitively g t process g t information g t or g t to
g t make g t decisions g t about gthis g t or g t her g t own g t welfare, g t the g t person g t may g t be

g t determined g t to g t be g t mentally g t incompetent.

Providing g t self-care g t is g t not g t the g t only g t criteria g t considered. g t Age g t is g t not g t a
