Model Answer
Explanation
Why would a nursing diagnosis of a cough be incorrect, compared to a risk for infection? Consider the difference between nursing and medical diagnoses.
A persistent and unpleasant cough could be a symptom of something more sever, and the immune system is at a risk of infection. The effective nursing care to prioritize is educating a patient on how to avoid more severe outcomes.
While a cough can be unpleasant and frequent, it is actually a symptom of something more alarming: the immune system being at risk for an infection. The most effective nursing care you should prioritize is to educate your patient on avoiding this more serious outcome.
Your nursing diagnosis should always take into account what condition is most serious, receiving the greatest benefit from your help. This diagnosis may not be the most obvious physical symptom to you or your patient, so always consider what is jeopardizing a patient’s health the most.

To have the patient and his guardian verbalize and agree to their instructions on how to avoid infection & practice respiratory hygiene, by end of the healthcare visit.
A risk-based diagnosis does not require medical interventions as the problem is hypothetical; the goal that does suit the diagnosis involves teaching the patient and his guardian about risk-reduction methods.

Explain the rationale behind your nursing diagnosis.
Danny, we want to make sure you dont develop an infection and become more sick by taking you through the different that can prevent that and the focus will be on your risk factors. Some of your risk factors include you being close to a sick friend, exposure to cigar smoke, having touches your face with uncleaned fingers. They may sound a lot but by working together and mitigating your risk factors can be easy and effective
Danny, given that you aren’t feeling well, we want to make sure you don’t develop an infection, which for you just means getting even sicker. We’re going to talk about the ways we can work to prevent that, especially focusing on your risk factors, which are just things that give you a bigger chance of being sick. Some of your risk factors are that you were near a sick friend, have been exposed to cigar smoke, could stand to wash your hands more, and have touched your face with your fingers. I know that sounds like a lot, but if we work together, reducing your risk factors for infection can be easy and effective.
A patient should understand their nursing diagnosis and the rationale behind it to increase their sense of involvement and to identify areas for future improvement.
Explain your goal for Danny and the interventions and data collections through which you will achieve it.
To make sure you dont become sicker, I will talk to you and your father and what must e done. The three of us will collaborate and agree to your health goals. Then both of you will repeat what you have learnt to be sure you have understood all which should be done.
Let’s talk about how we’re going to help you not get sicker! So, I’m going to have a conversation with you and your father about things to do to ensure your health. You, he, and I will work together to discuss, and then have you agree to your goals. Then I’m going to have you and your father repeat what you’ve learned, so we can make extra sure you’ve got it down pat!
You should communicate the Care Plan to the patient, allowing them to exercise involvement and agency in their own healthcare.
Explicitly ask for Danny’s consent to the Care Plan.
Does the plan sound good to you?
Does this plan I just talked about sound good to you?
A patient must consent to all interventions in their Care Plan. Disagreements are opportunities to provide further patient education and to consider alternative options.
Inform Danny you will now begin educating him and will then call to educate his guardian.
If you don’t have any other question, we can start our discussion.
Danny, if you don’t have any other questions, we can start our discussion now!
It’s time to begin your education interventions, so let your patient know!

Model Answer
Explanation
Did you achieve your goal for your patient and his guardian by the end of the visit, getting each of them to agree to and verbalize your instructions for avoiding infection and practicing respiratory hygiene?
Danny agreees and has verbalized a full and correct understanding on what to do. However, is father is reluctant on reducing his smoking inside the house as one of the intervention was to keep the house free from smoke to reduce the risk of infection. Thus this aspect is yeto to be achieved. Nevertheless, Danny and his father verbally agree to all other instructions so the overall goal has been partially achieved.
While Danny agrees to his instructions and has verbalized a complete and correct understanding of what to do, his father expresses reluctance about reducing his smoking inside of the house. One of his instructions was to keep the house smoke-free in order to reduce Danny’s risk of infection, so this aspect of your goal has not been achieved. However, both parties verbally agree to most of their other instructions, so your overall goal has been partially achieved.
Even with progress being made in almost all aspects of your patient teaching, you must adhere to your goal and consider your work incomplete if certain agreements have not been reached.
