Which of the following is a major barrier to a nurse caring for the family as a whole?

a. Families often don’t want to know what is wrong with their loved one.
b. Nurses don’t know how to care for families.
c. Reimbursement is paid only for services given to an individual.
d. The family often isn’t available when the nurse is giving care.

ESSAYBID ANSWER

ANS: C
As a result of the current era of cost containment, constraints on the community health nurse will increase. Reimbursement is almost entirely calculated for services rendered to the individual and thus is a major constraint toward moving toward planning care for the family as a unit.
