A nurse teaches a mother how to prepare oral rehydration solution. Which learning method best supports skill development?
Correct answer: B. Demonstrating the procedure and observing return demonstration
- A. Giving the mother a lengthy written leaflet
- B. Demonstrating the procedure and observing return demonstration
- C. Asking the mother to memorise the preparation steps
- D. Explaining the health risks without showing the procedure
Explanation
Demonstration followed by return demonstration allows the nurse to assess whether the mother can perform the skill correctly. Memorising information or listening to explanations alone does not confirm practical ability.
