CHILD DEVELOPMENT PEDAGOGY

Detailed explanation-1: -Many kinds of health data are represented as observations. A laboratory test result, a vital sign measurement, a pain scale rating, or recording the kind of exercise activity that a patient engaged in (e.g. running, walking, swimming, etc.) can all be considered observations.

Detailed explanation-2: -Observation services are hospital outpatient services you get while your doctor decides whether to admit you as an inpatient or discharge you. You can get observation services in the emergency department or another area of the hospital.

Detailed explanation-3: -Observation status, when chosen initially, is when you are placed in a bed anywhere within the hospital, but have an unclear need for longer care or your condition usually responds to less than 48 hours of care.

Detailed explanation-4: -Don’t look at things through the eyes of a patient. Instead, just focus on what you see and hear and then ask yourself afterwards what it must have felt like to be a patient experiencing those things. Try and suspend all judgements. Just watch and listen and think about what you’ve seen after the observation is over.
