The nurse is analyzing various teaching strategies that can be used to teach new mothers about newborn care. To enhance learning, which teaching method should the nurse implement?
 
  1. Select videos on various topics of newborn care.
  2. Organize a class that includes first-time mothers only.
  3. Have mothers return in 1 week, when they feel more rested.
  4. Schedule time for one-to-one teaching in the mother's room.

Question 2

During the initial prenatal visit, the pregnant teenager states that she does not know how she got pregnant. The nurse can help to educate her regarding anatomy by:
 
  1. Allowing her to witness a pelvic exam on another teenager.
  2. Encouraging her to ask her mother abut the physiology of pregnancy.
  3. Including anatomic models and drawings in the teaching session.
  4. Discussing the process of fetal development with the client.

Rationale:
1. The most effective educational method is one-to-one teaching while the nurse is in the mother's room. Individual teaching allows the nurse to answer specific questions. This strategy would not assure one-to-one teaching.

Answer to Question 2

3
Rationale:
1. One client is not allowed to be present during another client's visit or exam due to privacy issues and HIPAA.
2. Her mother might not have accurate information, or might be uncomfortable discussing these issues with her teen daughter.
3. To teach the client about anatomy and physiology, as well as to dispel myths she might hold, the nurse should use appropriate medical terminology and refer to models, pictures, and drawings. Offering the client a mirror during the pelvic exam is also helpful.
4. While fetal development is important to understand, discussing it now does not address the client's stated concern.
