On one of the first days working alone, the novice nurse must provide teaching on tracheostomy care to the client as well as the client's spouse. This nurse is not familiar with the teaching aspect. The best action for the nurse is to:
 
  1. Ask the nurse mentor to assist with the teaching after reviewing the procedure.
  2. Read the policy and procedure manual before the teaching session.
  3. Do the best the nurse can by remembering what was taught in nursing school.
  4. Ask for a different assignment until the nurse feels comfortable with this one.

Correct Answer: 1
Rationale 1: When implementing some nursing interventions, the nurse may require assistance. In this case, the nurse lacks the knowledge or skills to implement a particular nursing activity (teaching).
Rationale 2: Reading and reviewing the policy and procedure are important, but should be followed up with asking for assistance.
Rationale 3: Doing the best the nurse can would not be acceptable.
Rationale 4: Asking for a different assignment would not be acceptable.
