What does P3 record?

• A. The number of hospital admissions
• B. The number of formal caregiver visits in the last 3 days
• C. The medical supplies used
• D. The total amount of informal care received from family, friends, or neighbors over the last 3 days

Answer: (D)

P3 focuses on informal caregiving support. It records the total amount of care a person receives from family, friends, or neighbors over the last three days, meaning unpaid, non-professional help. This is about the person’s informal support network rather than formal paid services, hospital stays, or supplies. That explains why this item captures informal caregiving in the recent period, rather than hospital admissions, formal caregiver visits, or medical supplies.
