A sample from this course

One topic, as StudyPath teaches it.

Patient and client concepts

Patient and client concepts are foundational to patient education and health counseling, defining who receives care and how they are addressed. Mastering the distinctions between a patient and a client, the rights and responsibilities of each, and the ethical principles that guide interactions is essential for effective communication, informed consent, and shared decision‑making in the Nigerian tertiary exam.
