Multiple Choice

the nurse evaluate this client data?
A. The client is experiencing severe distress and is at risk for physical and psychological illness.

The Recent Life Changes Questionnaire is an expanded version of the Schedule of Recent Experiences and the
Rahe-Holmes Social Readjustment Rating Scale. A 6-month score of 300 or more, or a year-score total of 500
or more, indicates high stress in a clients life. However, positive coping mechanisms and strong social support
can limit susceptibility to stress-related illnesses.

Online kun je studenten helpen met notities en samenvattingen terwijl je niet meer echt naar je samenvatting hoeft om te kijken. Het past goed bij je studie en je kunt tegelijk wat bijverdienen!
De samenvattingen zijn goed om te gebruiken als je te laat bent met leren of slecht bent in samenvatten.
Aan te raden! Goedkoop en snel! Het aanbod is heel goed en je kan je favoriete personen volgen.
Knoowy neemt toch wel wat stress voor de examenperiode weg. De samenvattingen geven een goede houvast bij het studeren waardoor je zekerder wordt van jezelf bij het studeren. Ideaal voor wie in tijdsnood zit of gewoon een extra overzicht wil hebben van het vak.
Tijdens mijn studie aan de Arteveldehogeschool en KU Leuven heb ik opdrachten gemaakt die ik nu via Knoowy deel met andere studenten.
Prima ervaring, vlotte betaling, alles vlot kunnen downloaden Zeker voor herhaling vatbaar.
Ik verkoop samenvattingen om andere studenten te helpen en tegelijk wat bij te verdienen.
Weer een goede ervaring met Knoowy. Makkelijk en snel een nette samenvatting.
