A nurse is planning to provide community education about viral hepatitis. Which of the following should the nurse plan to include in the teaching?

A. Delegating tasks to appropriate personnel is an important skill, but effective time management also involves personal task completion.

B. Completing activities for one client before moving to the next helps ensure tasks are not left incomplete and promotes organized workflow.

C. Focusing on objectives rather than just activities is a more comprehensive approach to time management, ensuring tasks align with goals.

D. Skipping break times can lead to burnout and decreased efficiency over time, rather than improving time management skills.

A. Encouraging the client to gain 2.3 kg (5 lb) per week may be excessive and unrealistic, potentially contributing to feelings of failure and exacerbating the client's condition.

B. Weighing the client once per week throughout hospitalization is important for monitoring weight changes, but it does not specifically address the immediate post-meal monitoring needed to prevent complications such as purging.

C. Monitoring the client for 1 hr after meals helps prevent behaviors such as purging or other forms of compensatory behaviors that may occur immediately after eating.

D. Allowing the client to choose meal times may not be appropriate as it can perpetuate disordered eating patterns. Establishing regular meal times is important for promoting consistent eating habits.
