download the Family Genetic History form (Links to an external site.)Links to
an external site.. You must fill in and submit by 11:59 p.m. MT at the end of

Disclaimer
When taking
a family genetic history on an actual client, it is essential that the
information is accurate. Please inform the person you are interviewing that
they do not need to disclose information that they wish to keep confidential.
If the adult participant decides not to share information, please write,
"Does not want to disclose." If the client fails to disclose answers
to several items, you will need to find another client who is willing to share.
Directions
Refer to the
examples in Chapter 4 of your textbook that discuss development of a genogram.
Download
the NR305_Family_Genetic_History_Form (Links to an external site.)Links to an
external site.. You will document the adult participant's family genetic
history using this MS Word document.
Complete
the family genetic history using the information that the adult participant is
willing to share with you. The focus of this course is on the normal healthy
individual so your paper does not need to contain much medical/nursing detail.
Refer to your textbook or the Internet to learn what impact the family's health
history may have on the adult participant's personal state of wellness both now
and in the future. This paper does not require APA formatting, but you are
expected to write clearly and use proper grammar and spelling. Developing a
pictorial genogram using symbols to identify certain relationships (e.g.,
divorced, sibling, deceased, etc.), may provide more insight, however, drawing
may be difficult to accomplish with MS Word, therefore you are not expected to
use symbols, lines, or other drawing elements. Instead, describe the
relationships among the various people in the adult participant's family's
genetic history. Remember, the goal is not to learn how to draw with Word, but
to gather information about the family and recognize its significance to the
adult participant and that person's health.
Save the
completed form by clicking on Save as and add your last name to the file name,
for example, NR305_Family_Genetic_History_Form_Smith.
Submit the
completed form to the Family Genetic History form by Sunday, 11:59 p.m. MT at
the end of Week 2. Please post questions about this assignment to the weekly Q
& A Forums so the entire class may view the answers.

however, you are expected to be clear in your communication by using correct
medical terminology, grammar, and spelling.
Review the examples in Chapter 4 of your
textbook to gain insight into how to document the health history. Remember this
is a health history, not a physical examination. Avoid words like frequently,
improved, increased, decreased, good, poor, normal, or WNL as they may have
different meanings for different people. Instead, document the specific data
that led you to these conclusions, for example, 3x/day instead of frequently,
or consuming four servings of vegetables/day instead of increased vegetable
servings.

Course Project Milestone 2:
Patient Teaching Plan Guidelines
Updated 9/22/2017
Purpose
The purpose of this PowerPoint presentation is to apply
information gathered from the Family Genetic History and Milestone 1
assignments to aid with identifying one modifiable risk factor and develop an
evidence-based teaching plan that promotes health as well as improves patient
outcomes.
Course Outcomes
This assignment enables the student to meet the following Course
Outcomes.
CO #4: Identify teaching/learning needs from the health history of
an individual. (PO #2)
The assignment is to be submitted by Sunday, 11:59 p.m. MT at the
end of Week 6. Post questions to the Q & A Forum. Contact your instructor
if you need additional assistance. See the Course Policies regarding late
assignments. Failure to submit your assignment on time may result in a deduction
of points.
Directions
Prepare a patient teaching plan for your participant based on the
information you discovered in your previous assignments. Present your plan
using Microsoft PowerPoint.
- Title slide (first slide): Include a title slide with
your name and title of the presentation.
- Introduction/Identification
(two to three slides): Introduce
a modifiable risk factor (diet, smoking, activity, etc.) that will be the
focus of your presentation.
- Identify
at least one important finding you discovered in Milestone 1 that is
associated with this risk factor.
- Explain
how this places your adult participant at increased risk for developing a
preventable disease (obesity, Type II Diabetes, etc.), which is
described.
- List
short and long-term goals.
- Intervention (four to five
slides):Choose
one evidence-based intervention related to the modifiable risk factor
chosen that has been shown to be effective at reducing an individual's
risk for developing the preventable disease.
- Describe
the intervention in detail.
o Provide
rationale to support the use of this intervention. Support your rationale with
information obtained from one scholarly source as well as Healthy People 2020 (
http://healthypeople.gov (Links to an external site.)Links to an external
site.). Include any additional resources (websites, handouts, etc.) that you
will share with your adult participant, if applicable.
- Evaluation (three to four
slides): Describe
at least one evaluation method that you would use to determine whether
your intervention is effective. Outcome measurement is a crucial piece
when implementing interventions.
- Describe
at least one method (weight, lab values, activity logs, etc.) you would
use to evaluate whether your intervention was effective.
- Describe
the desired outcomes you would track that would show whether your
intervention is working.
- Include
additional steps to be considered if your plan proved to be unsuccessful.
- Summary (one to two slides): Reiterate the main
points of the presentation and conclude with what you are hoping to
accomplish as a result of implementing the chosen intervention.
- References (last slide): List the references for
sources that were cited in the presentation.
- Speaker notes: Share in detail how you
would verbalize the content on each of the slides to the patient.
Remember, you are creating a patient teaching plan so be sure to
include terms easily understood by the general population and limit your use of
medical jargon. Slides should include the most important elements for them to
know in short bullet-pointed phrases. You may add additional comments in the
notes section to clarify information for your instructor.
Guidelines
- Application:
Use Microsoft PowerPoint 2010 (or later).
- Length:
The PowerPoint slide show is expected to be no more than 14 slides in
length (not including the title slide and References list slide).
- Submission:
Submit your file by 11:59 p.m. Sunday end of Week 6.
- Save
the assignment with your last name in the file's title: Example: Smith
Patient Teaching Plan.
- Late
Submission: See the Policies under Course Home on late submissions.
