are indicators that the client may have acute pain such as increased

heart rate, increased blood pressure, increased respirations, sweating,

✓ C. Informal teaching is individualized one on one teaching which

represents the majority of patient education done by nurses that

occurs when an intervention is explained or a question is answered.

Group needs are often the focus of formal patient education courses

or classes. Informal teaching does not necessarily follow a specific

formalized plan. It may be planned with specific content, but it is

individualized responses to patient needs. Formal teaching involves the

use of a curriculum/course plan with standardized content.
