Assessment area
Need(s) identified.
Teaching technique or approach to problem identified.
Describe content.
Rationale for choosing this technique/approach.
Example:
Special/ age related needs
These are some ideas, there may be others that you identify.
· Age, lives alone, is non-compliant with diet.
· Expected aging changes such as decreased hearing, visual
difficulties.
· Red appears to not understand his glucose numbers and how
that relates to his diet and insulin administration.

· Home health nurse to assist Red and family in proper insulin
management and administration
Ideas for teaching methods/approach based on the scenario and
problems noted. You may have identified others.
· Teach importance of diet and insulin management to Red and
family and how to better manage his diabetes.
· Use videos, audio and teach back methods. It may even be
helpful to assure proper reading of the glucometer and
administration of the insulin by Red or his family.
Provide a brief rationale on why you chose these particular
technique/approaches.
For example, Red may have poor eyesight due to the diabetes
and needs audio and demonstration with return demonstration.
He may not be able to see the lines on the insulin syringe.

complete the Discharge Teaching Plan Assignment. Please see
the guidelines in Doc Sharing for more details and grading
rubrics for this assignment. After you read the case study,

Case Study
Continuing our story of Mr. Red Yoder, our elderly diabetic
patient:
Two weeks later, Red misses his Monday morning coffee at the
local VFW. He has also missed church for the past four
Sundays. He usually has a few whiskey sours a day and needs to

take something for sleep (Benadryl). Jon (Red’s son) gets
“irritated with me over my beer and whiskey habits and yells
pretty loud” at times. His friends “worry about him.” “I know
it’s only 20 miles to the VFW, but I just haven’t felt like eating
the last couple of days; maybe I’ve got the flu that’s going
around.”
Red does not like to cook and usually picks up whatever is
convenient, such as cake and donuts and some fast food. He also
loves bacon! The home health nurse wanted to make sure he
didn’t get an infection in that toe and now she is back to change
the bandage. Red relates to the home health nurse “I’m not sure
if I should take my insulin because I’m not eating, but my blood
sugar was 203 when I poked my finger this morning. How can
my sugar be that high when I’m not eating much? I just took off
my sock to check on my sore and my whole foot is red and big.
I haven’t looked at it for a few days; it was just a little pink the
last time I checked it. I should have paid closer attention to
those pills I was supposed to take, that antibiotic. “
Red requires admission to the hospital for sepsis of the wound.
