Involve the patient and caregiver in the process. Emphasize relevance of the information to the patient's life. Rationale: ANS: Patient D (Teaching tool - Models) Nurses may use actual equipment, objects, or models to teach concepts or skills. Models are useful when real objects are too small, large, complicated, or unavailable. Computer instruction uses programmed instruction in which the computer stores response patterns for learners and selects further lessons on the basis of these patterns. Computer instruction is not a substitute for a demonstration using real equipment. Printed and online materials are written teaching tools available in print or online as pamphlets, booklets, or brochures. This method is ideal for understanding complex concepts and relationships but is not a substitute for a demonstration using real equipment. Graphs are visual presentations of numeric data. They are represented as bar, circle, or line graphs. Graphs help learners quickly grasp the information about a single concept, but they are not a substitute for a demonstration using real equipment. 1, 2, 4, 5 There are many factors that affect patients' health literacy, such as age, culture, language, environment, nature of the content, and current situation, including level of pain, timing of instruction, and economic resources. The cognitive level depends on the patient's age, so the nurse should ask about the patient's age. The patient's support system should be taken into consideration when the nurse plans patient education. Therefore asking about marital status would be appropriate. Information about the patient's economic resources is helpful for the nurse to develop affordable interventions. There are many culture-based biases and restrictions, so in order to provide culturally competent care, the nurse should be aware of the patient's cultural background. The patient's insurance status is not a prerequisite in determining the instructions given to the patient. Recommended textbook solutions

Precontemplation The precontemplation stage in the Transtheoretical Model of Health Behavior Change is when the nurse provides patient support, increases awareness of the condition, and describes the benefits of change and the risk of not changing. In the action stage, the nurse reinforces the behavior with rewards, encourages self-reward, and discusses choices to minimize relapses and regain focus. The termination stage entails the evaluation of the effectiveness of the new behavior, no further intervention is needed at this stage. During the preparation phase, the nurse reinforces the positive outcomes of change, provides encouragement, develops a plan, helps set priorities and identifies sources of support.
