,When describing patient education approaches, the nurse
educator would explain that informal teaching is an
approach that

a. follows formalized plans
b. has standardized content
c. often occurs one-to-one
d. addresses group needs - Answer: C. Informal teaching
is individualized one on one teaching which represents the
majority of patient education done by nurses that occurs
when an intervention is explained or a question is
answered. Group needs are often the focus of formal
patient education courses or classes. Informal teaching
does not necessarily follow a specific formalized plan. It
may be planned with specific content, but it is
individualized responses to patient needs. Formal
teaching involves the use of a curriculum/course plan with
standardized content.

work, family, and hobbies after having a stroke. Which
theory type would the nurse use to develop a plan of care
for the best results of this patient's motivation style?

a. field

,b. biological
c. cognitive
d. sociologic - Answer: C. Cognitive theorists believe that
attention, relevance, confidence, and satisfaction (ARCS)
are the conditions that, when integrated, motivate
someone to learn. Field theorists place significance on
how achievement, power, the need for affiliation, and
avoidance motives influence individual behavior.
Sociologic theories are not involved in motivation.

adults
b. older clients usually have more experience with pain
than younger clients
c. older adults are at greatest risk for under treated pain
