The nurse is speaking with a group of adolescents about what can happen when having unprotected sex. The nurse understands that to communicate effectively with teens, she must:
1. Allow for discussion, and bring peers who have had experience related to the topic being discussed.
2. Lecture on the topic for the allotted time without any discussion.
3. Offer personal opinions on the topic, and cite examples of what can happen if they don't listen.
4. Discuss sex education related to religious belief.
1
Rationale:
1. Whatever the setting, the nurse partners with the adolescent, the parents, and other persons such as teachers or school counselors to plan appropriate goals and related intervention. Apply communication skills effective with teens, such as listening to concerns, allowing for discussion, and bringing peers who have had experiences related to the topic being discussed.
2. Lecturing without discussion will not draw in the adolescent to the content.
3. Personal opinions will not carry much weight with a group of adolescents.
4. Discussing sex education from a religious viewpoint is not appropriate.
