    Explanation:
    Patient education is a significant part of the nurse's job. Education empowers

    they are more likely to engage in interventions that may increase their chances for
    positive outcomes. Effective patient education starts from the time patients are

    Key Area of Responsibility 3


    Health Education
    Indicator 1: Considers the nature of learner in relation to: social,
    cultural,political,economic,educational and religious factors
    Explanation:
    - When making a health education plan, try to consider the nature of
    the learner so that the topics or discussion fits well with the patient.
    - Example: A nurse is discussing about Diabetes to a patient who
    happens to be a nurse and a patient who is a teacher. The manner of
    discussion would be different as nurses has prior knowledge about
    diabetes, while the other patient if it is his or her first time to
    encounter about diabetes will most likely have a lengthy discussion
    but even if he or she is a teacher but was able to encounter diabetes
    previously will most likely have prior knowledge about diabetes. So
    prior to giving health education, ask the patient first if he or she has
    knowledge about the specific condition before going further.
