TEACHING PLAN
Part 1:
Introduction:
The purpose of the teaching plan is to provide discharge education to the parents of the young children about the guideline of using of
asthma spacer. The spacer is defined as the device used for administrating the aerosolized medication from the meter dosed inhaler. Because of
inadequate literacy and unaware of the advanced technology, a considerate number of parents are unable to provide accurate care to the children
who are suffering from the problem of asthma. A discharge education would be given to 20 parents of the children who were admitted to the
hospital to increase knowledge of spacer and how to use a spacer for reducing asthma. The discharge education would be conducted in the outdoor
hall of the hospital where Engaging and activity-based approach would be used to provide education involving physical along with the visual
demonstration of the way of using a spacer in the home environment. In the current context, Benner's Stages of Clinical Competence can be used
to guide the teaching session. According to (Elhami et al. 2018), Benner’s Stages of Clinical, the student nurse would be Novice who is new to the
situation they will practice. This process would help gain new experiences by engaging and providing education to the parents of young children.
