HLT 306V Topic 1 Discussion Question 1

The nurse did not treat the patient well or act professionally.  I say this because the nurse should have taken the time to pronounce the patient’s name properly and the time in between coming back was way too long, just to mispronounce the name wrong again.

HLT-306V Topic 1 Discussion Question 2

Patient education is critical to patient compliance.  This should be a customized approach to their care especially when population come from different economic and cultural background.  Many barriers have to be considered like their health literacy, religious beliefs …  There is a need for educating patient to understand the whole process of care.  Patient has to understand the sickness/disease, the importance of being healthy and the availability of resources to follow up for better patient compliance.
