Interdisciplinary care consists of

A. A semi-dependent nursing action: This term doesn't have a standard meaning in nursing. Nursing actions are generally categorized as independent, dependent, or interdependent.

B. An independent nursing action: Independent nursing actions are activities that nurses are licensed to initiate on the basis of their knowledge and skills. These actions don't require a physician's order. Giving a back massage, in many cases, falls under the category of independent nursing actions. Nurses often assess the patient's condition and, if appropriate, can provide interventions like massages to enhance comfort and well-being without needing a specific order.

C. A dependent nursing action: Dependent nursing actions are activities that require a physician's order or another healthcare provider's directive. Nurses perform these actions under the physician's supervision or guidance. Giving a back massage might require a specific order in certain situations, for instance, if the patient has a particular condition that necessitates a tailored approach to massage.

D. An interdependent nursing action: Interdependent nursing actions are those that require collaboration with other healthcare team members. These actions involve working together with physicians, therapists, and other professionals to ensure comprehensive patient care. While collaboration is essential in healthcare, giving a back massage is generally not considered primarily interdependent; it's more about the nurse's individual skill unless there are specific medical considerations that require interprofessional collaboration.

A. The case management system:
Case management involves coordinating comprehensive healthcare services for patients across different settings and healthcare professionals.
This choice doesn't describe the specific style of documentation used in the scenario provided.

B. SOAP Note:
Subjective: Information reported by the patient, like feelings or symptoms.
Objective: Observable and measurable data, such as physical examination findings.
Assessment: The nurse's professional judgment about the patient's condition.
Plan: Interventions and treatments planned for the patient.
In the scenario, the documentation includes subjective information (patient denies itching, happy with improvement), objective data (rash fading, no visible hives), the nurse's assessment (skin integrity improving), and the plan (check rash daily until discharge). This aligns with the structure of a SOAP note.

C. Narrative style:
Narrative charting involves writing out the patient's story in a paragraph form.
While it can contain similar information to a SOAP note, it doesn't follow the structured format of SOAP (Subjective, Objective, Assessment, Plan) and tends to be more detailed and descriptive.

D. Charting by exception:
Charting by exception involves documenting only abnormal findings or significant events.
This method reduces redundant documentation, focusing on deviations from the expected or normal findings.
The scenario provides a mix of both normal (improvement in skin, patient satisfaction) and abnormal (initial rash and hives) findings, so it's not solely charting by exception.
