Answer to Question 1

C
Client teaching is an essential function of every nurse, regardless of practice setting. All clients need information about disease prevention, growth and development, safety, hygiene, nutrition, and first aid. During hospitalization, clients need information about their health problems, the prescribed treatment regimen, and the environment of the health care facility. Prior to discharge, clients need information about postdischarge care related to activity, medications, dietary modifications, prevention of complications, and plans for rehabilitation.
