问题    Nursing at Beth Israel Hospital produces the best patient care possible. If we are to solve the nursing shortage, hospital administration and doctors everywhere would do well to follow Beth Israel’s example.
   At Beth Israel each patient is assigned to a primary nurse who visits at length with the patient and constructs s full- scale health account that covers everything from his medical history to his emotional state. Then she writes a care plan centered on the patient’s illness but which also includes everything else that is necessary.
   The primary nurse stays with the patient through his hospitalization, keeping track with his progress and seeking further advice from his doctor. If a patient at Beth Israel is not responding to treatment, it is not uncommon for his nurse to propose another approach to his doctor. What the doctor at Beth Israel has in the primary nurse is a true colleague.
   Nursing at Beth Israel also involves a decentralized nursing administration; every floor, every unit is a self-contained organization. There are nurse-managers instead of head nurses; in addition to their medical duties they do all their own hiring and dismissing, employee advising, and they make salary recommendations. Each unit’ s nurses decide among themselves who will work what shifts and when.
   Beth Israel’s nurse-chief ranks as an equal with other vice presidents of the hospital. She also is a member of the Medical Executive Committee, which in most hospitals includes only doctors.
Which of the following best characterizes the main feature of the nursing system at Beth Israel Hospital?

选项 A、The doctor gets more active professional support from the primary nurse.
B、Each patient is taken care of by a primary nurse day and night.
C、The primary nurse writes care plans for every patient.
D、The primary nurse writes health account for every patient.

答案A

解析 主旨题。回答本题需要对文章所提到的Beth Israel医院的特点或特色进行归纳总结。综观全文,概括起来说就是责任护士全方位协助医生为病人提供更完善的护理服务,这正是选项A所反映出的内容,故为正确答案。而选项B“由责任护士对病人进行日夜护理”,选项C“责任护士每天为病人写医疗护理计划”和选项D“责任护士每天对病人的健康状况进行记录”虽然均符合本文内容,但它们只是该医院一整套完善的护理系统中责任护士所做的日常护理工作中的一部分,均不能完全概括该医院的特色。
