1. A nurse is teaching a patient’s family member about permanent tube
feedings at home. Which purpose of patient education is the nurse meeting?
a. Health promotion
b. Illness prevention
c. Restoration of health
d. Coping with impaired functions
ANS: D
Teach family members to help the patient with health care management (e.g.,
giving medications through gastric tubes and doing passive range-of-motion
exercises) when coping with impaired functions. Not all patients fully recover
from illness or injury. Many have to learn to cope with permanent health
alterations. Health promotion involves healthy people staying healthy, while illness
prevention is prevention of diseases. Restoration of health occurs if the teaching is
about a temporary tube feeding, not a permanent tube feeding.
2. A nurse is teaching a group of healthy adults about the benefits of flu
immunizations. Which type of patient education is the nurse providing?
a. Health analogies
b. Restoration of health
c. Coping with impaired functions
d. Promotion of health and illness prevention
ANS: D
As a nurse, you are a visible, competent resource for patients who want to improve
2
their physical and psychological well-being. In the school, home, clinic, or
workplace, you promote health and prevent illness by providing information and
skills that enable patients to assume healthier behaviors. Injured and ill patients
need information and skills to help them regain or maintain their level of health;
this is referred to as restoration of health. Not all patients fully recover from illness
or injury. Many have to learn to cope with permanent health alterations; this is
known as coping with impaired functions. Analogies supplement verbal instruction
with familiar images that make complex information more real and
understandable. For example, when explaining arterial blood pressure, use an
analogy of the flow of water through a hose.

situation indicates the nurse is meeting this goal?
Teaching a family member to provide passive range of motion for a
a. stroke patient
