Quizplus · Accepted Answer

During a focused interview, the nurse's goal is to obtain specific information related to a particular health issue or problem. One of the key activities during this interaction is to clarify previously obtained data and identify any new nursing diagnoses that may be relevant to the client's current condition. Reviewing previous health screening activities, obtaining biographic data, or reviewing data from previous medical records may be important in other contexts, but they are not the primary focus of a focused interview.
