The nurse will plan to offer the patient education session in a quiet area in order to:

provide absolute privacy.

make the environment more like a classroom.

reduce distractions.

ensure that the patient can hear what the nurse says.

Answer and Explanation

The Correct Answer is B

A. "Blood not drawn because tests are no longer desired by patient."
This statement is vague and lacks specific details regarding the patient's exact refusal and the communication with the doctor.

B. "Refuses to have blood drawn; says tests are 'useless.' Doctor notified."
This response documents the patient's refusal with their exact words ("useless") and also notes that the doctor has been informed, which is essential for clear, complete documentation.

C. "Doctor notified of failure to draw ordered blood work."
This documentation lacks the reason for the blood draw failure (patient refusal) and omits the patient’s specific wording.

D. "Refuses to have blood drawn. Doctor notified."
Although this documents the refusal and the doctor’s notification, it omits the patient’s exact words, which can provide additional context for the healthcare team.

Correct Answer is C

Explanation

A. The patient feels ready to be discharged home. While it’s important to consider the patient’s readiness, discharge planning ideally begins earlier to ensure comprehensive education and preparation.

B. The primary care provider writes orders to discharge the patient. Waiting for discharge orders may delay necessary teaching and preparation for the patient.

C. The patient is admitted to the health care facility. Discharge planning should begin upon admission to ensure that the patient’s needs post-discharge are assessed and met in a timely manner.

D. It is anticipated the patient will be discharged in 8 hours. Starting discharge planning only hours before discharge may lead to rushed and incomplete education, potentially affecting continuity of care.

A. have the patient explain the procedure to the nurse to assess understanding B. give the patient a day to allow him to process and absorb the information. C. have the patient practice the procedure with the nurse helping. D. give the patient written materials to study and learn the procedure.

Correct Answer is C

Explanation

A. Have the patient explain the procedure to the nurse to assess understanding.
This could be a helpful way to assess knowledge, but it doesn’t provide practical, hands-on experience immediately after the demonstration.

B. Give the patient a day to allow him to process and absorb the information.
Delaying practice may reduce the effectiveness of learning by increasing the chance of forgetting details.

C. Have the patient practice the procedure with the nurse helping.
Practicing the skill right away reinforces learning and allows the nurse to provide guidance and feedback.

D. Give the patient written materials to study and learn the procedure.
Written materials can be helpful but should complement, not replace, hands-on practice.
