Sample Question #5 Answer

#4 is correct. Because family members are important in promoting client self-care and preventing further illness, it is important to include family members in the teaching plan for the client. In a family support model, the goal is client self-care activities through formal and informal support systems.

1. Incorrect: Simply instructing the spouse to require the client to perform self-care activities may result in affirmative verbal response from the spouse without actual follow-through after the home health nurse leaves.

2. Incorrect: Hiring others to perform care activities that the client can do independently does not contribute to the self-care model.

3. Incorrect: There are no indications that the client needs an extended care facility.
