A nurse is developing a one-stop service to meet the needs of a vulnerable group. Which of the following would the nurse most likely create?
a. Wrap-around services where mental ser-vices are linked
b. Giving all immunizations on a single clinic visit
c. Providing multiple services during a single clinic visit
d. Providing free services to the medically indigent
ANS: C
Providing multiple services during a single clinic visit makes services more responsive to the combined effects of social and economic stressors. Wrap-around services provide comprehensive health as well as social and economic services, so it would include more than the linkage of men-tal health services. Administering all immunizations or providing free services would not provide a one-stop shop for all needed services.
