Exam Content
1.
As a risk manager, you will constantly analyze risk-management decision-making in health care. One of your responsibilities is to provide updates at monthly staff meetings to inform all staff of the current risks and how the risk management team is working to mitigate those risks and the risk management tools you have used.
Preparation
Read the following scenarios and choose 1 to focus on for this assignment.
Scenario 1
A patient arrives at the emergency department and is admitted for increased pain with the source unknown. The on-call physician asks the intake staff, “What is the source of payment for the patient?” in order to assist with his decision to treat the patient. The physician then declines to see the patient based on the patient’s lack of health insurance.
Scenario 2
A patient is admitted to the medical floor in a health care facility. She is confused and won’t stay in her bed. The patient is placed in a room at the end of the hall away from the nurses station and she is not easily seen by staff. The patient continues to get out of bed without using her call light and eventually falls, resulting in an injury.
