Patient education is a legal component of the nursing process that was identified in the Patients Bill of
Rights. Patient education is a necessary function of nursing care. The client could be discharged without
receiving instructions. Education is not done because it is a nice thing to do for a client. Client education
does not necessitate a physicians order.

5. The nurse is engaged in an information teaching session with a client. Which of the following would be
appropriate to instruct during an informal teaching session?
1 Expected effects of a new medication
2 Instruction on leg exercises to be used after surgery
3 How to use an incentive spirometer
4 Diet and medications to manage a new diagnosis of
diabetes mellitus
ANS: 1
Instruction can be either informal or formal. Informal instruction occurs intermittently and frequently
during the course of client care. These instructions are simple, relate to the disease process, and answer
client questions. Providing the expected effects of a new medication is a type of information instruction.
Formal instructions are deliberate with specific goals and an evaluation process. Instructing on
postoperative leg exercises, the use of an incentive spirometer, and diet and medications to manage a new
health diagnosis are all examples of formal instruction.
