Georgia Christian University Problem-Solving and Decision-Making Discussion

In this module we discussed the difference between problem-solving and decision-making options and identified several facets that distinguish these two options especially in the patient engagement process.In a cancer treatment center patients are receiving different types of treatments such as surgery and radiotherapy. Radiotherapy is used as a treatment that focuses on varied doses of radiation to kill cancerous cells or minimize the size of the tumor. On the other hand surgery is used to remove a part of the tumor with minimal damage to the body or the organ that is impacted by the disease.

Question

• Discuss the encounter between the physician and their patient in the treatment center in the context of the two options: decision-making and problem-solving.
• Does the encounter in this scenario require a problem-solving approach or a decision-making approach?
• How is the element of patient engagement discussed in the module material relevant in this encounter and improving outcomes?
