Case Studies.
Case 1: You hear Joe, another medical assistant in your
office, talking to a patient about the diet the doctor has
prescribed. Joe says, "Well, if you really like red meat, go ahead
and eat it. Just try to cut back your fat intake from other foods.
"What, if anything, has Joe done wrong?
Case 2: " Why is the doctor telling me to cut back on beer?"
complains Mr. Kowalski, who is being treated for hypertension.
"I've heard that beer can be good for you!" How should you
respond?
Case 3: The physician has just prescribed a low-cholesterol diet
for Mrs. Ryan. "But how am I supposed to know how much
cholesterol my food has?" she asks you. How could you help Mrs.
Ryan?
