✓ Fact
Subjective data collection involves assessing present problems, taking health
history, and evaluating risk factors. Give the patient time and encouragement to
tell his or her story and experience of health or illness. Doing so provides an
opportunity for the patient to express concerns; it often forms the foundation
for a therapeutic relationship. If the patient is anxious, acknowledge that it is
common to feel uncomfortable at times; give the patient permission to disclose
only information that he or she feels comfortable disclosing. In addition, inform
the patient that the information is confidential except in situations where there
is concern about safety or harm.
