Question 1 of 5
What factors should the nurse consider for teaching a child about his or her disease and related health care measures?
Correct Answer: C,D,F
Rationale: For children, the teaching-learning process may be fundamentally different from that used for adults, and the nurse needs to adjust the complexity and volume of information based on the child's age and cognitive level. The factors that need to be addressed when teaching children include the following: Trust is essential to a therapeutic relationship; in general, the younger the child, the shorter the attention span; assessing the child's knowledge is important because children are exposed to various levels of information about health care; children form misconceptions easily, and a child's imagination may create greater fear than the truth; a child may regress developmentally in a situation of illness; and a child may better manage uncomfortable information through role-playing.
