Question 4 of 5
Which educational intervention by the nurse would be most effective in promoting self-care for a childbearing client in their second trimester who is diagnosed with gestational diabetes?

A: Providing a list of local support groups may be beneficial for emotional support but does not directly address self-care through blood glucose monitoring. C: Giving a strict diet plan is important, but it is not as effective as teaching the client to monitor their own blood glucose levels.
