Answer to Question 1

T

Answer to Question 2

B
Teaching and learning about medical conditions, procedures, and medications can be difficult but for the older adult the task can be particularly hard. Teaching strategies that are helpful to the nurse include implementing principles of adult learning, providing an informal teaching atmosphere, conducting a thorough physical assessment of vision and hearing, and assessing the patient's ability and willingness to learn.
