Question 18 • Nursing Assistant - EL3610

What best describes what should be done if family members want to be involved in the health care of a patient?

Answer
A
Adjust the patient’s healthcare routine for when the family members won’t be present, so they aren’t in the way.
B
Kindly let the patient’s family members know they can’t be involved with any of the care of the patient because they aren’t healthcare workers.
C
Adjust the patient’s healthcare routines when possible, so family members can be involved.
D
Allow family members to take over all healthcare activities of the patient.

Explanation

When a patient wants family members involved, healthcare routines should be adjusted when it is practical and safe to include them. This supports the patient and family without giving up professional responsibility for care. Choice C, “Adjust the patient’s healthcare routines when possible, so family members can be involved,” is the best answer; family members should not be excluded automatically or take over all care.
