Assessment Questions Answer Key
Lectures 1 & 2
1. Care coordination __________.

Lecture/Slide: 1/3
2. Which of the following is not an example of a transition of care?
a. provider-to-provider (within facility)
b. discharge to home
*c. change in patient room without change in providers
d. care area to care area (within facility)

Lecture/Slide: 1/5
3. Hand-offs __________.
a. are rarely the cause of medical error
b. have decreased with reduced resident duty hours
c. are not necessary for temporary coverage during lunch breaks
*d. are transfers of care from one provider to another provider
Answer. d. Hand-offs are transfers of care from one provider to another. They are
often vulnerable to communication failure, and, as such, have been found to be
associated with medical error. Decreased residency duty hours result in an
increase in hand-offs, thus increasing risk. Any time care is transitioned from one
provider to another, even when only for short periods, requires a hand-off.
