Client education: a futuristic outlook.
This paper explores educational concepts in relation to client education, and more specifically the area of prenatal education. In particular, it examines how nurses and women clients can work together to create education programmes aimed at enhancing decision-making processes and developing knowledge which has the potential to emancipate women from the medical domination of the health services. Traditional approaches to teaching and learning are challenged and the role of the nurse as a leader in a critical approach to curricula of client education programmes is considered.
