A nurse is preparing an in-service about communication for a group of staff nurses.
Which of the following information should the nurse include when discussing the electronic mode of communication?

The correct answer is Choice A: Coordinates all healthcare client has received into one platform.

Choice A rationale:

Electronic health records (EHRs) integrate all of a patient's healthcare information into one centralized platform, making it easier for healthcare providers to access and coordinate care.

Choice B rationale:

While EHRs can allow for sharing information with authorized individuals, granting significant other access to client information is not a primary function of EHRs and requires specific consent and permissions.

Choice C rationale:

EHRs do provide information that can be used for research studies, but this is not a primary benefit emphasized in patient education.

Choice D rationale:

EHRs do allow clients to access their medical records electronically, but this is not the primary focus of the teaching about the benefits of EHRs.

Choice A rationale:

Standards of care for monitoring clients with a history of blood pressure elevation are important, but they are not the best resource for health promotion activities for clients with hypertension. This choice is more focused on monitoring and care standards.

Choice B rationale:

A critical pathway for clients who have had a stroke is specific to a different condition and not related to health promotion for clients with hypertension. It does not provide the information needed for the presentation.

Choice C rationale:

Acute care facility protocol for clients experiencing a hypertensive crisis is important for managing emergencies, but it is not the best resource for health promotion activities. It deals with crisis management rather than prevention.

Choice D rationale:

Clinical practice guidelines for the management of high blood pressure are the most appropriate resource for the nurse's presentation on health promotion activities for clients with hypertension. These guidelines provide evidence-based recommendations for managing and preventing high blood pressure, making them the best choice for the presentation. .
