Challenges to effective patient education specific to nursing include: Limited or lack of teaching materials/supplies
Challenges to effective patient education specific to nursing include: Conflicting information received by patients who seek information from the internet, other primary health care providers, or other health care disciplines
Challenges to effective patient education specific to nursing include: Complex patient care needs and a nurse who may have limited training/skills to provide the necessary education
Challenges to effective patient education specific to nursing include: Low patient health literacy and/or low patient literacy
Challenges to effective patient education specific to nursing include: Anxiety, stress, or medications affecting mental capacity

What are the four most commonly applied teaching and learning theories? 1. Behavioral Theories 2. Cognitive Theories 3. Change Theories 4. Humanistic Theories
Define Behavioral Theories: Some of the most common theories believe learning should focus on observable behaviors
Define Cognitive Theories: These theories believe that internal processes must occur for the learner to begin understanding presented information
Define Change Theories: Learners must be assessed for readiness to learn before presentation of the educational material so that behavioral changes may be implemented
Define Humanistic Theories: The learner must be self-motivated in addition to being able to self-evaluate with clear-cut goals and outcomes (Stephens, 2016).
According to the learning retention pyramid, how much information can a person retain when the information is "Read" to them? 10% information retention
According to the learning retention pyramid, how much information can a person retain when the information is "Spoke for them to hear" to them? 20% information retention
According to the learning retention pyramid, how much information can a person retain when the information is "Presented for them to see"? 30% information retention
According to the learning retention pyramid, how much information retention happens when: See and Hear 50% information retention
According to the learning retention pyramid, how much information retention happens when: Writes 60% information retention
According to the learning retention pyramid, how much information retention happens when: Dicuss 70% information retention
According to the learning retention pyramid, how much information retention happens when: Experience 80% information retention
According to the learning retention pyramid, how much information retention happens when: Teach 95% information retention
Define "Formal patient education": Formal patient education usually occurs in a classroom with a group of patients or with patients individually in an acute care setting. Formal education is structured, goal-oriented, and scheduled by the nurse when delivered in health care settings.
Define "Informal patient education": Informal patient education is an unstructured, unscheduled opportunity. It is generally patient- or caregiver-directed, and it occurs in a spontaneous manner when the patient, the caregiver, or both have a specific question or educational need.
Examples of formal patient education -blood glucose monitoring and insulin injection information for newly diagnosed diabetic patients -Childbirth classes for a group of expecting mothers -Class for nursing students on proper methods for obtaining vital signs -CPR classes
Examples of informal patient education Answering patient questions such as: -What does this medication do? -How long will the procedure take? -What happens during this test? -Does this medication cause side effects? -Will the procedure hurt?
What is the most important concept that results in improvements in patient's health literacy? The teach-back method
What are the 4 steps to the teach-back method? 1. Teach new skill or concept, have pt repeat it back in their own words 2. Clarify or correct misunderstood information, have pt repeat corrected info 3. Say "What questions do you have?" 4. Continue process until concept or skill is understood.
Name the 3 health literacy principles: 1. Encourage questions 2. Use plain language 3. Limit teaching to 3-5 concepts
Define "Self-directed learning" This occurs when individuals seek the information themselves instead of waiting for the information to be taught
Define "Collaborative learning" This occurs over time through multiple interactions with others such as nurses, respiratory therapists, and primary health care providers
Define "Incidental learning" This occurs through mistakes and motivates the learner to engage in finding more information about why the mistake happened
