Assignment 1: Application – Comprehensive Patient Assessment

When completing practicum requirements in clinical settings, you and your Preceptor might complete several patient assessments in the course of a day or even just a few hours. This schedule does not always allow for a thorough discussion or reflection on every patient you have seen. As a future advanced practice nurse, it is important that you take the time to reflect on a comprehensive patient assessment that includes everything from patient medical history to evaluations and follow-up care. For this Assignment, you begin to plan and write a comprehensive assessment paper that focuses on one female patient from your current practicum setting.

By Day 7 of Week 9

This Assignment is due. It is highly recommended that you begin planning and working on this Assignment as soon as it is viable.

To prepare

  • Reflect on your Practicum Experience and select a female patient whom you have examined with the support and guidance of your Preceptor.
  • Think about the details of the patient’s background, medical history, physical exam, labs and diagnostics, diagnosis, treatment and management plan, as well as education strategies and follow-up care.

To complete

Write an 8- to 10-page comprehensive paper that addresses the following:

  • Age, race and ethnicity, and partner status of the patient
  • Current health status, including chief concern or complaint of the patient
  • Contraception method (if any)
  • Patient history, including medical history, family medical history, gynecologic history, obstetric history, and personal social history (as appropriate to current problem)
  • Review of systems
  • Physical exam
  • Labs, tests, and other diagnostics
  • Differential diagnoses
  • Management plan, including diagnosis, treatment, patient education, and follow-up care

Note: Refer to the Comprehensive Write-up Guide in this week’s Learning Resources for a detailed outline with additional guidance.

Note: The School of Nursing requires that all papers submitted include a title page, introduction, summary, and references.

Examine the infectious disease outbreak of shigellosis in Lexington County, Kentucky.

/in /by

In an infectious disease outbreak, there is often an urgent need to control the outbreak and prevent the disease from spreading. An infectious disease outbreak can be costly—both in health risks and in healthcare expenditures. A common method to confirm that an outbreak is indeed occurring is to examine the surveillance data. Examining the surveillance data is also crucial throughout the outbreak to determine if the control measures were adequate.

From the assigned textbook readings this week, review the chapter, “Controlling an Outbreak of Shigellosis with a Community-Wide Intervention in Lexington County, Kentucky.”

Respond to the following:

  • Examine the infectious disease outbreak of shigellosis in Lexington County, Kentucky.
  • Based on the information contained within the case study, describe additional measures that could have been taken to identify and control the spread of the Shigella infection in a timely manner.
  • In addition to the standard laboratory surveillance, describe other surveillance measures that would have been useful to identify the continued number of shigellosis cases.
  • Suggest other strategies to monitor the potential for an outbreak of this particular infection.

Support your statements with appropriate examples and scholarly references.

Part 2: Surveillance Data and Health Implications

Surveillance systems are crucial in identifying trends both for infectious diseases and chronic diseases. The CDC maintains the Surveillance Resource Center that provides the most up-to-date data on numerous topics. Health educators and public health professionals can use this data to establish the need for health promotion programs to reduce the incidence of disease.

From the assigned readings this week, review the following Web site:

Using the above CDC Web site, select a health topic from the interactive database system that is of interest to you. Based on this Web site and the data you have reviewed, respond to the following:

  • Briefly describe the various study designs, statistical findings, and their application in current public health topics.
  • Examine the trends you have noticed for your selected topic.
  • Recommend the type of health promotion program that would be effective in meeting the needs of the target population of your selected topic.

Week 9: Psychotherapy With Children and Adolescents

Approximately 1 in 5 children and adolescents have a mental health disorder, which may lead to issues at home, school, and other areas of their lives (Prout & Fedewa, 2015). When working with this population, it is important to recognize that children and adolescents are not “mini adults” and should not be treated as such. Psychotherapy with these clients is often more complex than psychotherapy with the general adult population, particularly in terms of communication. As a result, strong therapeutic relationships are essential to success.

This week, as you explore psychotherapy with children and adolescents, you assess clients presenting with disruptive behaviors. You also examine therapies for treating these clients and consider potential outcomes. Finally, you develop diagnoses for clients receiving psychotherapy and consider legal and ethical implications of counseling these clients.

Discussion: Counseling Adolescents

The adolescent population is often referred to as “young adults,” but in some ways, this is a misrepresentation. Adolescents are not children, but they are not yet adults either. This transition from childhood to adulthood often poses many unique challenges to working with adolescent clients, particularly in terms of disruptive behavior. In your role, you must overcome these behaviors to effectively counsel clients. For this Discussion, as you examine the Disruptive Behaviors media in this week’s Learning Resources, consider how you might assess and treat adolescent clients presenting with disruptive behavior.

Learning Objectives

Students will:

  • Assess      clients presenting with disruptive behavior
  • Analyze      therapeutic approaches for treating clients presenting with disruptive      behavior
  • Evaluate      outcomes for clients presenting with disruptive behavior

To prepare:

  • Review      this week’s Learning Resources and reflect on the insights they provide.
  • View      the media, Disruptive Behaviors. Select one of the four case      studies and assess the client.
  • For      guidance on assessing the client, refer to pages 137-142 of the Wheeler      text in this week’s Learning Resources.

Note: To complete this Discussion, you must assess the client, but you are not required to submit a formal Comprehensive Client Assessment.

Note: For this Discussion, you are required to complete your initial post before you will be able to view and respond to your colleagues’ postings. Begin by clicking on the “Post to Discussion Question” link and then select “Create Thread” to complete your initial post. Remember, once you click Submit, you cannot delete or edit your own posts, and cannot post anonymously. Please check your post carefully before clicking Submit!

By Day 3

Post an explanation of your observations of the hyperactive adolescent in the case study you selected, including behaviors that align to the criteria in DSM-5. Then, explain therapeutic approaches you might use with this client, including psychotropic medications if appropriate. Finally, explain expected outcomes for the client based on these therapeutic approaches. Support your approach with evidence-based literature.

Read a selection of your colleagues’ responses.
