Patient Education Help

So I have a patient education project due thursday and I am almost finished but I am slightly confused.

We have to have at least 6 evidence based teaching points with rationales present with 2 examples.

My topic is community acquired pneumonia. I know that I could teach about incentive spirometer, deep breathing, smoking cessation if the patient smokes, getting a vaccination, discussing increased activity but those are all examples. What are teaching points?

Any ideas? Thanks!

    My interpretation is:

    The teaching points could be referring to categories of teaching areas.

    Examples:

    Exercise

    Disease process

    Procedures

    Equipment

    Medications

    Allergies

    Activity limitations

    Preoperative

    Post operative

    Safety

    Pain management

    Risk factors

    Etc.....
