Which goal is a measurable statement for a patient taking insulin injections?.

Choice A rationale: This statement is measurable because it provides a specific timeframe (2 weeks after initial training) for the patient to be able to self-administer insulin injections. Choice B rationale: This statement is about the nurse’s actions, not a goal for the patient. Choice C rationale: While understanding how insulin works in the body is important, this statement is not measurable. Choice D rationale: Understanding a diabetic diet is important for a patient taking insulin, but this statement does not provide a measurable goal.
