Feeling powerless is perhaps the most devastating aspect of illness for a patient. Patient education is the most effective means of returning control to the patient by reducing feelings of helplessness and enhancing the ability to be the chief decision maker in the management of one’s health and illness problems. Rankin and Stallings, Patient Education: Principles and Practice. Philadelphia: Lippincott. 2001.
