What type of assessment includes AIDET, building trust, and a thorough health history?

A holistic assessment encompasses AIDET (Acknowledge, Introduce, Duration, Explanation, Thank You), building trust with the patient, and gathering a thorough health history. This approach goes beyond merely assessing physical symptoms and focuses on the whole person, considering emotional, social, and spiritual factors in addition to physical health. AIDET is particularly important in establishing rapport and trust, which are essential components of a patient-centered care approach.

In contrast, a physical assessment primarily involves the examination of the body to identify signs of disease, a nutritional assessment focuses on dietary habits and nutritional status, and a psychological assessment centers on mental health and emotional well-being. While these assessments may contribute to a comprehensive understanding of a patient's health, they do not necessarily encompass the broader, integrative approach of a holistic assessment.
