Mr. Garcia is a -68-year-old patient who was diagnosed with COPD 5 years ago and has been successfully treated by Dr. Green ever since. This morning, Mr. Garcia is scheduled for a spirometry test followed by an evaluation by the Dr. Oliver, a certified medical assistant, who will be in charge of Mr. Garcia. Due to the office being busy, Mr. Garcia is left waiting 30 more minutes than expected. Oliver finally calls him over and directs him to the examination room. As Mr. Garcia sits down, he lets out a heavy sigh. As Oliver enters the patient information in the computer, he stated, “Alright Mr. G., let’s do the spirometry test first. I see you are familiar with how it goes.” To which Mr. Garcia aggressively responded, “Why must I keep taking this test? This is the 5th time Dr. Green has ordered the test, I even quit smoking 4 years ago, why do I have to keep coming back and sitting through long waits just to have the same exact test performed?” Questions : Explain what a spirometry is…

The patient had broken her tibia, and had undergone three sur-geries to try to correct the fracture. Maggie’s current admis-sion was for the treatment of an infection caused by the external device in place to treat the fracture. I was assignedto care for her on the day that she was being discharged.Throughout the day, I formed a close bond with her, andthe nurse asked me to bring Maggie to her car when she was ready to leave. I was a little apprehensive about beingable to help her into the car with the external fixator in placebecause she could not bend her leg at all. I had a coupleof choices—I could take her down to the car myself andhope that there wouldn’t be any problem helping her getinto the car, or I could tell the nurse I didn’t feel comfortablebringing the patient to the car because I didn’t have…
