The normative-re-educative change or combination has the most likelihood of increasing Sam\u2019s compliance. It allows the nurse to focus on the behavior of the patient to impact change. In normative combination, it is assumed that the patient is acting according to the societal values and norms that influence their ability to accept change. In this case, I will focus on Sam\u2019s specific motivators such as feelings, roles and attitudes to influence change and compliance. I will re-educate Sam on the importance of monitoring his glucose levels and accepting administration of insulin.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
I will use the normative re-educative strategy to let Sam know the importance of following the orders of the doctor and complying to have his glucose levels monitored and insulin administered. I will let Sam know the pros and cons of complying with the doctors\u2019 orders and his right to accept and follow through with them. Sam will be encouraged to follow the routine and be consistent for the sake of his health.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The process of ensuring change and compliance by the patient will involve people who are close to him or care givers. They include his wife, the doctor, nurse and the patient himself. Nurses are essential in encouraging change for the patient to have a different view about their treatment. The doctor checks the progress of the patient and the wife who is always with the patient will ensure the patient puts more effort to comply with the doctors\u2019 orders. I will instill knowledge to my patient to ensure he understands the importance of monitoring his glucose and taking his insulin for the betterment of his health. If the patient does not know the importance of his compliance, they will not follow through the orders of the doctor and this will affect their health negatively.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
