Answer to Question 1

ANS: A, B, C, D
Patient education has long been a standard for professional nursing practice. All state Nurse Practice Acts acknowledge that patient teaching falls within the scope of nursing practice. Patient education is an essential component of providing safe, patient-centered care. It is important to document evidence of successful patient education in patients' medical records. Patient education is effective for children. Different techniques must be used with children. Creating a well-designed, comprehensive teaching plan that fits a patient's unique learning needs reduces health care costs, improves quality of care, and ultimately changes behaviors to improve patient outcomes.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: C
Affective learning deals with expression of feelings and acceptance of attitudes, beliefs, or values. Having the patient value healthy eating habits falls within the affective domain. Stating three facts or identifying two foods for a healthy snack falls within the cognitive domain. Cooking falls within the psychomotor domain.
