A practical nurse (PN) at a community health center is assisting with a client who is starting a comprehensive lifestyle modification program. Arrange the PN's actions in the most appropriate chronological order from first to last.
- 1Collect data by asking the client to describe their typical daily food intake and physical activity.
- 2Explore the client's motivation, personal health goals, and readiness to adopt new healthy behaviors.
- 3Reinforce the registered nurse's individualized teaching regarding portion control and a daily walking schedule.
- 4Provide a printed educational brochure that summarizes the discussed dietary and exercise recommendations.
- 5Instruct the client to bring a completed weekly activity and meal journal to their next follow-up appointment.
Cevap
The correct order follows the practical nursing process: collect baseline physical data, assess motivation and readiness, reinforce the teaching plan, provide supporting written materials, and establish evaluation criteria for the next visit.
The practical nursing process requires data collection to occur before implementation. The PN must first determine the client's current baseline lifestyle habits, followed by their readiness to change. Only after data collection is complete can the PN effectively reinforce the registered nurse's teaching plan and provide supporting written materials. Finally, the PN establishes a method for evaluation by setting up follow-up tracking.
