A nurse is assisting with teaching a client about a new medication. Which of the following strategies should the nurse to use?

A. Instruct the client to wait until you are completely finished before asking any questions – This discourages client engagement and may prevent the nurse from addressing concerns in real time. B. Teach information at a 5th-grade level – While simple language is beneficial, the level should be tailored to the client’s comprehension rather than assuming all clients understand at a 5th-grade level. C. Talk about the least important information in the beginning and the most important at the end – Clients may have limited attention spans, and it is better to start with essential information. D. Use teach-back method and active learning: The teach-back method ensures that the client understands the medication instructions by asking them to repeat the information. Active learning engages the client in the learning process, improving retention.
