A male adolescent during a well check-up
Question 1 of 5

Based on the information, the nurse plans to teach the adolescent about using a condom. What statement would the nurse include in the teaching plan?

Question 2 of 5
The public health nurse is teaching young adolescents in a sexual health class the proper use of a condom. Which statements made by the students indicate teaching was successful? Select all that apply.
