Teach-back makes a recipient’s interpretation visible through explanation in their own words and, when appropriate, demonstration. Rephrase and check again without blame. Prioritize consequential actions, while assessing consent, feasibility, and adherence separately rather than assuming that a correct restatement settles those issues.
