| A) | “I’m starting to see how my lifestyle has caused me to end up here.” | |
| B) | “I understand why they’re not letting me eat anything for the time being.” | |
| C) | “My intravenous drip will keep me from getting dehydrated right now.” | |
| D) | “I can see how things could have been much worse if I hadn’t gotten to the hospital when I did.” | |

| 2. | The nurse has been working with a client for several days during the client’s recovery from a femoral head fracture. How should a nurse best evaluate whether client education regarding the prevention of falls in the home has been effective? | |
| A) | “What changes will you make around your house to reduce the chance of future falls?” | |
| B) | “Do you have any questions about the fall prevention measures that we’ve talked about?” | |
| C) | “In light of what we’ve talked about, why is it important that you remove the throw rugs in your house?” | |
| D) | “Do you think that the safety measures I taught you are clear and realistic?” | |
| Ans: | A | |
| Feedback: | ||
| An open-ended question that requires the client to apply the information that has been taught is often the most accurate way to evaluate the effectiveness of client education. Yes/no questions are much less effective (“Do you have any questions?”; “Do you think that the safety measures I taught you are clear and realistic?”). Asking the client about the importance of preventing falls does not directly assess what the client will actually do to prevent falls. | ||
