RS arrives at their quarterly diabetes provider appointment and the medical assistant walks them to the scale, in the clinic hallway, to get their weight. RS politely explains that they feel uncomfortable being weighed but they are happy to share their stated weight. The medical assistant once again encourages RS to get on the scale and reassures RS that they don’t need to look at or know their weight. RS sighs, takes off their shoes and reluctantly gets on the scale to be weighed.
Which of the following best describes the end result of this situation?
- The medical assistant used a person-centered approach to respect the wishes of RS.
- RS exhibited non-adherence and reconsidered their request.
- According to the transtheoretical model, RS was in preparation stage and needed gentle encouragement.
- The clinic staff would benefit from an inservice on providing weight inclusive care.
