An 11-year-old boy presents to the emergency room (ER) with a 4-inch laceration on his right arm. He was with his friends doing bicycle stunts when he fell off his bike and cut his arm on a rusty nail from the ramp. In addition, his wrist is swollen, bruised, tender to touch, and warm, with limited mobility. He will most likely need stitches to close the laceration and a splint for the sprain. a. After treatment, as he prepares to leave, you give him last-minute care instructions for laceration and sprain. What would be important for this boy to know to prevent further health concerns with his injuries? b. The boy concernedly asks you, “My uncle lost his foot because he got gangrene in it. Am I going to lose my arm if I get an infection in this cut?” How would you respond? c. How would you respond if this was an elderly man rather than an 11 year old boy? need answer in 300-500 words.

A great deal of past and recent healthcare concern has centered on the errors made in patient care or overall healthcare of people. Many suggest that the legalities of healthcare attempt to balance the expectations of society for healthcare and the mistakes of caregivers with thousands of successful events of exceptional care each year. Yet many cases of errors in care also often go unnoticed or unreported simply because a patient or family member is reluctant to complain about their or their loved one's care for a variety of reasons. Why do you think patients are reluctant to complain about their care and what are some of the reasons for mistakes or errors in care? Discuss this in two different contexts: you as a patient, and your parent or child as a patient.
