The perioperative nurse realizes that the most effective means of evaluating the client's under-standing of previous teaching is to:
 
  1. Provide written material on the subject to be reviewed after discharge
  2. Reinforce the material with family as the procedure is being performed
  3. Discuss it with the client and family in the immediate preoperative period
  4. Offer to answer any questions that the client or family have just before discharge

Question 2

Which of the following statements made by a nurse reflects the greatest insight into the planning needs of a same-day surgical experience?
 
  1. Time is a precious resource in same-day surgery units; being organized allows for the best utilization of time.

  3. With only a few hours from time of admission to the beginning of the procedure, things have to be effectively organized.
  4. I take the time to review the client's preadmission and preoperative data in order to formulate the most individualized plan of care possible.

Answer to Question 1

ANS: 3
In the immediate preoperative period, assess the client's understanding of previous teaching. The other options are not truly evaluations of the client's knowledge.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: 4
Ambulatory and same-day surgical programs offer challenges in gathering a complete assessment in a limited time. Clients are admitted only hours before the surgical event, so it is important for you to organize and verify data obtained preoperatively and implement a perioperative plan of care. Although the remaining options are not incorrect, they do not stress the importance of ef-fective organization of the client's plan of care.
