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.

Please inform the person you are interviewing that they do not need to disclose information that they wish to keep confidential. If the interviewee 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

Find an adult who is not related to you who is willing to let you take a health history.

Download the NR305_Milestone1_Form (Links to an external site.)Links to an external site.. You will type your answers directly into this Word document. Your paper does not need to follow APA formatting; 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.

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.

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.
