Answer 1

The background component in the SBAR technique addresses the question 'what got us to this point?'

Step-by-step explanation:

In the SBAR technique, the component that addresses the question 'what got us to this point?' is the background component. The background component provides information about the patient's history, previous treatments, and relevant medical conditions that led to the current situation.
