1. Which principle of teaching should the nurse use to ensure learning in a family situation?
jj jj jj jj jj jj jj jj jj jj jj jj jj jj
a. Motivate the family with praise and positive feedback. jj jj j jj jj jj jj
b. Learning is best accomplished with the lecture format. jj jj jj jj jj jj jj
c. Present complex subject material first while the family is alert and readyto learn.
jj jj jj jj jj jj jj j jj jj jj j jj
d. Families should be taught using medical jargon so they will be able to understand
jj jj jj jj jj jj jj jj jj jj jj jj jj
the technical language used by physicians.
jj jj jj jj jj jj
ANS: A jj
Praise and positive feedback are particularly important when a family is trying to master a
jj jj jj jj jj jj jj jj jj jj jj jj jj jj
frustrating task such as breastfeeding. A lively discussion stimulates more learning than a
jj jj jj jj jj jj jj jj jj jj jj jj jj
straight lecture, which tends to inhibit questions. Learning is enhanced when the teaching is
jj jj jj jj jj jj jj jj jj jj jj jj jj jj
structured to present the simple tasks before the complex material. Even though a family may
jj jj jj jj jj jj jj jj jj jj jj jj jj jj jj
understand English fairly well, they may not understand the medical terminologyor slang terms
jj jj jj jj jj jj jj jj jj jj jj j jj jj
that are used.

Nurses are now responsible for various independent functions, including teaching, counseling,
jj jj jj jj jj jj jj jj jj jj
and intervening in nonmedical problems. Interventions initiated by the physician and carried out
jj jj jj jj jj jj jj jj jj jj jj jj jj
by the nurse are called dependent functions. Administrating oral analgesics is a dependent
jj jj jj jj jj jj jj jj jj jj jj jj jj
function; it is initiated bya physician and carried out bya nurse. Requesting diagnostic studies is
jj jj jj jj jj j jj jj jj jj jj j jj jj jj jj jj
a dependent function. Providing wound care is a dependent function; it is usually initiated by the
jj jj jj jj jj jj jj jj jj jj jj jj jj jj jj jj
physician through direct orders or protocol.

The clients correct performance of the procedure under the nurses supervision is the best proof of

her ability. Demonstration is an excellent teaching method, but not an evaluation method. During
jj jj jj jj jj jj jj jj jj jj jj jj jj jj
verbalization of the procedure, the nurse may not pick up on techniques that are incorrect. It is
jj jj jj jj jj jj jj jj jj jj jj jj jj jj jj jj jj
not the best tool for evaluation. Routinely assessing the infant for cleanliness will not ensure
jj jj jj jj jj jj jj jj jj jj jj jj jj jj jj
that the proper procedure is carried out. The nurse may miss seeing that unsafe techniques
