A nurse is showing a diabetic patient how to draw insulin out of a syringe. The mode of learning that the nurse is using is:
oral learning
visual learning.
kinesthetic learning.
auditory learning.
The Correct Answer is B
A. Oral learning. Oral learning involves verbal instruction, which could be part of the teaching but isn’t the primary method when demonstrating a physical task.
B. Visual learning. Visual learning is present here, as the patient observes the nurse’s demonstration, which can be effective for understanding the technique.
C. Kinesthetic learning. Kinesthetic learning involves a hands-on approach where the patient would actively participate in the task, enhancing skill retention through doing.
D. Auditory learning. Auditory learning occurs through listening, which would be part of an oral explanation but is less emphasized here than visual or kinesthetic methods.

Correct Answer is C
Explanation
A. Motivated to learn about the health problem of this patient and is appropriately seeking knowledge during his clinical experience.
Accessing information without being the assigned caregiver is inappropriate, regardless of motivation, as it breaches confidentiality and privacy protocols.
B. Doing appropriate research about nursing care as long as information is not divulged. Even without sharing information, accessing a patient’s chart without need-to-know status is a privacy violation and does not constitute appropriate research.
C. Violating the confidentiality of the patient's record.
This choice is correct as the student is breaching confidentiality by accessing patient records without a care-related need to know. Only those involved in the patient's care should access their chart.
D. Neglecting the assigned patient load and should read the unassigned patient’s medical record only after his assigned work is completed.
Reading an unassigned patient’s record, even after finishing other duties, is still a breach of confidentiality.
Correct Answer is A
Explanation
A. The nurse-patient relationship ends when the patient is discharged.
The nurse-patient relationship is time-limited and often ends when the patient is discharged, which aligns with its structured, goal-oriented nature.
B. A social relationship does not have goals or needs to be met. While social relationships may not have structured goals, they can still have mutual needs or goals. In contrast, the nurse-patient relationship has specific health-related goals and objectives focused on patient care.
C. The focus is mainly on the nurse in the nurse-patient relationship. This is incorrect, as the primary focus of the therapeutic relationship is on the patient's needs and well-being, not the nurse’s.
D. A social relationship does not require trust or sharing of life experiences. Social relationships do require trust and sharing of experiences; however, they are typically not bound by the professional boundaries, goals, and time limitations that define the nurse-patient relationship.
