Teaching, in nursing process

Published

I'm studying for a test, not homework

I've read and retread my book, and I'm trying to figure out where teaching falls in the nursing process.

Planning, where I'm setting goal and interventions?

Do I need to know if they are teachable to have as an intervention. How do I know if they are teachable if I don't try and teach them.

Or

Implementing, teach or to administer insulin

I know I'm always teaching, but where does it fall officially?

I'm know over thinking and can't figure out.

I'd go with Implementation

It makes sense

My teacher said something like you have to teach in planning. Maybe she meant plan to teach.

Or maybe I wrote it down wrong

Teaching is an intervention. Interventions fall under implementation.

Agree. Teaching is not an outcome, it's an intervention.

Teaching is an intervention. Once you assess the learner you decide on knowledge gaps (diagnosis). Then you plan how to fill those gaps. You intervene with teaching and then re-evaluate to see if the gaps are closed. Evaluation after intervention can be questions, demonstrations, written tests, etc. Good luck

I have to say Educate like mentioned above uses the whole nursing process. A. Assess the pts//family needs, education level, barriers 2 learning, learning style . D. diagnosis using nursing diagnosis such as knowledge deficit related to ... P. Plan/ develop a teaching plan. I. Implement the plan. E. Evaluate the effectiveness of teaching and revise if necessary.
