How Can Nurses Educate Patients About Lifestyle Changes?
Education is a vital part of cardiac care. Nurses provide information on:
1. Adopting a heart-healthy diet, such as reducing salt and saturated fats. 2. Engaging in regular physical activity. 3. Avoiding smoking and excessive alcohol consumption. 4. Recognizing and managing stress. 5. Monitoring their own health at home, including checking blood pressure and weight.
