Question

You’re talking with Liliana before her release from the hospital. Which of her statements indicates the need for further patient education

Answer 1

Basing this answer on the patient with a tibia fracture and open reduction, we can confirm that Liliana indicating that she should only take calcium supplements would require further patient education.

Why is this statement wrong?

Liliana will be recovering from a post-op condition. This means that she will be at risk of developing an infection. This will most likely require preemptive antibiotic supplements to reduce the likelihood of infection. This may be coupled with pain medication as well.

Therefore, since Liliana will require more medications and supplements than calcium, her statement shows the need for further patient education.
