Brief Summary

The Teach-Back method was initially developed as a communication technique for patients to remember important information about their diagnosis, treatment or medication and to understand what to do. Method; It requires recalling and explaining any information learned during the interaction between the healthcare team and clients. It has been seen that the use of the tell-what-you-learned method can be used effectively in increasing the learning and comprehension level of individuals who lack health knowledge, contributing to positive health behaviors and reducing the return to health institutions, and it has begun to be used in different areas that require patient education. There are no examples of studies in which the tell-what-you-learned method, which has been brought to the agenda and implemented abroad in recent years, is used in our country. The development of breastfeeding self-efficacy is a very challenging process. Postpartum anxiety occurs in women with low breastfeeding self-efficacy perception. Different training methods are used to initiate and maintain breastfeeding. However, there is no generally accepted method that can bridge the communication gap between patients and healthcare professionals and can be used in health education. It is important to use the tell-what-you-learned method, which is used in patient/client training and is expressed as a communication technique based on expressing what the caregivers have learned in their own words, as it is not enough for the individuals being cared for to say "I understand", in terms of increasing the success of breastfeeding and improving the health of the mother and baby.
