Assessment 1 Instructions: Health Promotion Plan Develop a hypothetical health promotion plan, 3-4 pages in length, addressing a specific health concern for an individual or a group living in the community that you identified from the topic list provided.  Bullying. Teen Pregnancy. LGBTQIA + Health. Sudden Infant Death (SID). Immunization. Tobacco use (include all: vaping, e-cigarettes, hookah, chewing tobacco, and smoking) cessation. Introduction Historically, nurses have made significant contributions to community and public health with regard to health promotion, disease prevention, and environmental and public safety. They have also been instrumental in shaping public health policy. Today, community and public health nurses have a key role in identifying and developing plans of care to address local, national, and international health issues. The goal of community and public health nursing is to optimize the health of individuals and families, taking into consideration cultural, racial, ethnic groups, communities, and populations. Caring for a population involves identifying the factors that place the population's health at risk and developing specific interventions to address those factors. The community/public health nurse uses epidemiology as a tool to customize disease prevention and health promotion strategies disseminated to a specific population. Epidemiology is the branch of medicine that investigates causes of various diseases in a specific population (CDC, 2012; Healthy People 2030, n.d.). As an advocate and educator, the community/public health nurse is instrumental in providing individuals, groups, and aggregates with the tools that are essential for health promotion and disease prevention. There is a connection between one’s quality of life and their health literacy. Health literacy is related to the knowledge, comprehension, and understanding of one’s condition along with the ability to find resources that will treat, prevent, maintain, or cure their condition. Health literacy is impacted by the individual’s learning style, reading level, and the ability understand and retain the information being provided. The individual’s technology aptitude and proficiency in navigating available resources is an essential component to making informed decisions and to the teaching learning process (CDC, 2012; Healthy People 2030, n.d.).

Support for Patient Centered Concept Map Learner Name Capella University NURS-FPX6011 Evidence-Based Practice for Patient-Centered Care and Population Health Instructor Name Date Concept maps are a tool that can be used to develop an individualized plan of care. Evidence-based practice should support the planned interventions to meet the patient’s needs. The attached concept map was developed to plan care for a diabetic patient who has been non-compliant with her self-care regimen. Patient Needs Analysis The most important nursing diagnosis for this patient is Risk for unstable blood glucose level (Ladwig et al., 2019). The patient has reported several factors that put her at risk for this diagnosis. She has had episodes of hypoglycemia where her family has called 911 and has continued to have difficulty with blood glucose monitoring and reports not eating well. She is reporting declining interest in overall diabetes management over the past few years. The second most important nursing diagnosis is Ineffective health management (Ladwig et al., 2019). The patient has reported feeling an overall loss of interest and hopelessness in meeting glycemic goals over the past few years. Additionally, she has reported feeling overwhelmed with taking care of her grandchildren which has been intermittent and unexpected due to school closures related to COVID 19. The third diagnosis that is appropriate for Ana is Readiness for enhanced health management (Ladwig et al., 2019). Ana is seeking care and help now because she recognized her choices are not healthy for her and she is concerned as well as her family. According to the American Diabetes Association Professional Practice Committee (ADAPPC) standards of care “Significant changes in life circumstances, often called social determinants of health, are known to considerably affect a person’s ability to self-manage their condition” (ADAPPC, 2022b). COVID has had a significant impact on individuals, families, and communities. This patient and her family have been impacted and it is contributing to the patient’s ability to effectively manage her diabetic diagnosis. According to the ADAPPC, “There are four critical times to evaluate the need for diabetes self-management education to promote skills acquisition in support of regimen implementation, medical nutrition therapy, and well-being: at diagnosis, annually and/or when not meeting treatment targets, when complicating factors develop (medical, physical, psychosocial), and when transitions in life and care occur” (2022b). This patient and family are experiencing at least two out of four of these critical times. The intervention to refer for Depression screening and Diabetes Self-Management Education and Support (DSMES) will begin to address some of these barriers.

Module 2 Discussion No unread replies.No replies.     Discussion 2 Hematopoietic:  J.D. is a 37 years old white woman who presents to her gynecologist complaining of a 2-month history of intermenstrual bleeding, menorrhagia, increased urinary frequency, mild incontinence, extreme fatigue, and weakness. Her menstrual period occurs every 28 days and lately there have been 6 days of heavy flow and cramping. She denies abdominal distension, back-ache, and constipation. She has not had her usual energy levels since before her last pregnancy.  Past Medical History (PMH):  Upon reviewing her past medical history, the gynecologist notes that her patient is a G5P5with four pregnancies within four years, the last infant having been delivered vaginally four months ago. All five pregnancies were unremarkable and without delivery complications. All infants were born healthy. Patient history also reveals a 3-year history of osteoarthritis in the left knee, probably the result of sustaining significant trauma to her knee in an MVA when she was 9 years old. When asked what OTC medications she is currently taking for her pain and for how long she has been taking them, she reveals that she started taking ibuprofen, three tablets each day, about 2.5 years ago for her left knee. Due to a slowly progressive increase in pain and a loss of adequate relief with three tablets, she doubled the daily dose of ibuprofen. Upon the recommendation from her nurse practitioner and because long-term ibuprofen use can cause peptic ulcers, she began taking OTC omeprazole on a regular basis to prevent gastrointestinal bleeding. Patient history also reveals a 3-year history of HTN for which she is now being treated with a diuretic and a centrally acting antihypertensive drug. She has had no previous surgeries.  Case Study Questions Name the contributing factors on J.D that might put her at risk to develop iron deficiency anemia.
