Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Conducting a complete assessment is appropriate when planning interventions for a pediatric patient and family in crisis as it helps identify the immediate needs and concerns of the patient and family. The plan can be developed based on this assessment, followed by determining appropriate follow-up. Focusing only on long-term problems may not address the immediate crisis, and developing the plan prior to meeting with the patient and family may not take into account their unique needs and preferences.
