The postpartum nurse applies which of the following adult learning principles to actively involve the postpartal client during the discharge teaching?
1. Demonstration of skills
2. Classroom lectures and one-on-one teaching
3. Use of television and videos
4. Sensory involvement and active participation
4
Rationale:
1. Demonstration of skills is done by the nurse, and classroom lectures, one-one teaching, and use of television and videos—while helpful when used as part of the teaching plan—do not actively involve the client in learning.
2. Demonstration of skills is done by the nurse, and classroom lectures, one-one teaching, and use of television and videos—while helpful when used as part of the teaching plan—do not actively involve the client in learning.
3. Demonstration of skills is done by the nurse, and classroom lectures, one-one teaching, and use of television and videos—while helpful when used as part of the teaching plan—do not actively involve the client in learning.
4. Sensory involvement and active participation are two of the keys to adult learning, because they actively involve the clients in the learning.

The daughter and caretaker of a confused client with functional incontinence is crying and asks about having an in-dwelling catheter placed in her mother so that there is less laundry and the house does not smell so much like urine
What is the nurse's best response? A. "You must be very aggravated at this situation. That plan will take care of all urinary-related problems, and I will call the physician with this request." B. "I know you are tired. However, having a catheter in all the time creates a large risk for infection. I will teach you how to insert the catheter, which should be used just at night." C. "With wet clothing, your mother is also at an increased risk for skin breakdown. Rather than place a catheter in long-term, we can teach you and your mother how to perform intermittent catheterization to drain the bladder 6 to 8 times each day and help her keep dry." D. "Although a catheter seems easier, it would not be good for your mother. There are many types of pads that can be placed or worn to prevent smells and leaks. Social services can help you obtain these supplies at a reasonable cost."
