Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

An exposure history should identify current and past exposures,have a preliminary goal of reducing or eliminating current exposures,and have a long-term goal of reducing adverse health effects.The "I PREPARE" mnemonic consigns the important questions to categories that can be easily remembered.Asking about previous employment helps to answer the "P" of past work.The other questions do not address the topics identified in the "I PREPARE" mnemonic (investigate potential exposures,present work,residence,environmental concerns,past work,activities,referrals and resources,and educate).
