How can nurses effectively utilize teach-back in a group setting?

Utilizing teach-back in a group setting involves actively engaging participants to ensure they understand the material presented. The correct approach is to ask each participant to explain their understanding of the key concepts discussed. This method encourages individuals to articulate what they have learned, which reinforces their understanding and allows the nurse to identify any areas of confusion or misinterpretation.

When participants explain the information in their own words, it not only empowers them but also promotes a deeper understanding of the content. This technique encourages active participation, fosters a supportive learning environment, and ensures that everyone is on the same page before concluding the session.

The other options do not effectively facilitate the goal of teach-back in a meaningful way. Filling out written surveys does not provide immediate feedback on understanding and lacks interactive engagement. Discouraging peer-to-peer discussion hampers collaborative learning, which is often beneficial in group settings. Summarizing the information at the end of the session alone may not adequately assess individual understanding, as it does not involve participants actively demonstrating their comprehension.
