| d. | Large sheet explaining the need for washing hands, times, amounts of insulin to inject, and the nurse’s home phone number |
ANS: C
If the patient has been assessed as not being able to process written or spoken English, providing literature is futile. A nutrition pamphlet has nothing to do with injecting insulin. Pictures and a clock are universal symbols that are readily understood. Return demonstrations with the actual syringe are good learning exercises.
