What's a telehealth? In hospitals where I've worked, I have never come across such service. Well I am from a province in the Philippines where that isn't practiced. It probably is somewhere in our country but in my province, no. I tried to research but I couldn't find the right answer for the question.
Guys, I appreciate all your help. NCLEX questions can be tricky. And they even sound soooo lacking. Like my second question. It is as it appeared in my pen and paper test practice exam. It doesn't have an answer key and we were required to take it over and over again until we passed it. Thinking that I'll never pass it by just answering it repeatedly, I finally opted to copy some questions and research them over the internet. There isn't any regulation in my review center that doesn't allow that. I even have my instructor's permission for it.
I am only saying this guys because some of you might think that I am diclosing questions from the ACTUAL NCLEX. For the record, I have not taken the exam yet. Am about to, yes.
And I love the fact that this site has helped me out big time. My pen and paper test perecntage is actually increasing over time. I am bound to teach my fellow reviewees of the ideas that I have gotten in here.
The reason for A. I use to work in a Nursing home and when the patients came back from the hospital, 7 out of 10 times, the patient came back with MRSA and a stage 1 or 2. Hospitals are full of MRSA and the CNA job scope is so much more in depth that they don't turn and repostion the patients they way they do in the nursing home. I am speaking from my experience in the nursing homes and hospitals in my area. I cannot speak for the ones throughout the country.
