What should the tech include as part of documentation that patient teaching was completed?
  1. Who performed the teaching, where it was done, and why the patient needed the teaching
  2. Teaching topics, family members present, and the patient demonstrating proficiency
  3. The date and time that teaching was done and the patient’s ability to repeat the information.
  4. Patient teaching does not have to be documented
Explanation
Answer: B - As part of documenting patient education, the tech should include the teaching topics, family members that were present, and the patient demonstrating proficiency. This ensures that documentation notes what the patient learned and if anyone else was present who also received education. By documenting the patient’s ability to demonstrate proficiency of the material, the tech records the patient’s outcomes for the teaching session.
