Question 1 of 5

The nurse is reviewing the preoperative teaching plan for a client scheduled for a radical neck dissection for laryngeal cancer. Which part of the nursing care plan should the nurse initially focus on?

A. The financial status of the client B. Postoperative communication techniques C. Information given to the client by the surgeon D. The client's support systems and coping behaviors

Correct Answer: C

Rationale: The first step in client teaching is establishing what the client already knows. This allows the nurse not only to correct any misinformation, but also to determine the starting point for teaching and to implement the education at the client's level. Although the remaining options may be components of the plan, they are not the initial focus.
