A patient arrives at OB triage with a complaint of vaginal bleeding. The nurse would prioritize all of the following questions during the assessment except:

One of the most important principles of effective health education is to involve the target audience in the planning process. By involving the target audience in the planning process, the nurse can gain a better understanding of their needs, priorities, and concerns related to health and wellness. This, in turn, can help the nurse develop education goals that are relevant, engaging, and effective at improving health outcomes.

Asking the formal leadership of a community what the learning needs are, using the expertise of professional nurses who are skilled at assessing needs, or interviewing physicians to determine the highest need based on diagnoses can all be useful strategies for gathering information about community health needs. However, none of these strategies are as effective at identifying the specific needs and priorities of the target audience as asking the target audience directly.

A history of cesarean section for fetal distress is an indication for a repeat cesarean section in subsequent pregnancies, as the risk of recurrence of fetal distress is higher. A trial of labor after cesarean (TOLAC) may be attempted in some cases, but a planned cesarean section is often recommended.
Option B is incorrect because fear of natural childbirth is not a medical indication for a cesarean section.
Option C is incorrect because gestational diabetes does not typically require a cesarean section unless other complications arise, such as fetal macrosomia or failed induction of labor.
Option D is incorrect because a history of cephalopelvic disproportion with the first pregnancy may not necessarily require a cesarean section in subsequent pregnancies. A trial of labor may be attempted, depending on the circumstances.
