When presenting health information the population health nurse wants to create a climate where the participants do not feel threatened. Which topic and nursing action will help create this type of climate?
1. Exercise, where the nurse begins the first session with a description of the difficulties the nurse sometimes finds in trying to exercise.
2. Stress, where the nurse plays soft music throughout the first session.
3. Good nutrition, where the nurse provides a meal for the first session.
4. Diabetes, where the nurse asks a group of diabetics to talk to the class during the first session.
Answer: 1
Explanation: 1. The nurse who teaches a class about exercise, and shares his or her own personal experience, is creating a climate in which the clients do not feel threatened and in which the nurse educator is seen as a source of support rather than a threat. The other choices do not achieve this same result.
