What is the sense of oneself that is influenced by the characteristics, norms, and values of the nursing discipline, resulting in an individual thinking, acting, and feeling like a nurse?

Choice A reason:

Using the internet and social media can be beneficial for learning, but it must be age-appropriate and supervised. It is not the most important action, as it may not always be feasible or safe for a child without proper guidance.

Choice B reason:

Encouraging independence and informed choice is crucial in patient education for a child. It empowers the child, fosters critical thinking, and helps them take ownership of their health, which is essential for long-term health outcomes and adherence to treatment.

Choice C reason:

Earning respect by matching words with actions is important for building trust with the child. However, it is not specific to patient education and is more related to the overall nurse-patient relationship.

Choice D reason:

Using dolls, dress-up, or imitation can be effective teaching tools, especially for younger children. They help in demonstrating procedures and making the learning process more engaging. However, this approach may not be as empowering as encouraging informed choice.

Choice A reason: While a shopping list of heart-healthy food is useful, it does not involve an active learning process which is crucial for a patient who learns better by doing.

Choice B reason: Practicing taking her own blood pressure allows the patient to actively engage in her health management, making it the most appropriate educational activity for someone who learns by doing.

Choice C reason: A diagram of the effects of heart disease on the body is informative, but it is a passive learning tool and does not involve the patient in a hands-on activity.

Choice D reason: Pamphlets on heart disease provide valuable information but are not an interactive learning method and thus, less suitable for a patient who prefers learning by doing.
