For this assessment the patient will be a 63 year old female with a cystocele, and chief complaint urinary incontinence. The rest of the info can be made up such as medical history meds labs just make it believable to the pt age and diagnosis. 

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

 Instructions

The purpose of this assignment is to apply knowledge of reliable and valid information sources to patient education in clinical nursing practice and to evaluate patient educational materials posted on the internet.

The assignment for this week consists of 3-5 page paper evaluating consumer/patient health information on the web. You will be required to find a website that is designed to provide health information to the consumer/patient and analyze it according to the criteria described below. You are required to report your analysis in a formal course paper.

   Choose a health topic/issue in which you want to educate your patient/consumer/family about (diabetes, heart failure, teenage pregnancy, depression, etc…) and briefly describe in your paper :
       An explanation of your health topic/issue and why you selected it (Significance of the topic/issue selected).

   Find an internet source that is designed to provide information/education about your selected health topic/issue and analyze the following:

       describe the website (main title, information)
       describe the overall impression about the design of the website (organization, easiness of finding information, easiness to read, table of content/index, colors, font, does it look professional).
       Who is sponsoring the website?
       How often is the site updated? When was the site created? Was it updated recently?
       Does it state that the content is not medical advice?
       Who is the intended audience? Does the site have a clear target audience? Is the information presented appropriate to the target population?

   How credible are the information presented:

       Is there any evidence that the author of the web information has some authority in the field about which she or he is providing information? Who is responsible for the information? What are the author’s credentials? Is a mechanism in place for you to contact the author?
       Are there clues that the author/s are biased? For example, is he/she selling or promoting a product? Is the author taking a personal stand on a social/political issue or is the author being objective ? Bias is not necessarily “bad,” but the connections should be clear.
       Does the information have a complete list of works cited, which reference credible, authoritative sources? Is the information valid and supported by evidence? Are omissions noted? Is the author’s point of view objective and unbiased?
       Is the information accurate? Any inconsistencies, inaccuracies, errors, false information, etc…
       Are there links that point to additional, valuable resources with minimum effort?

   Adequacy:

       Over all, does the site provide consumer/patient education? is the education adequate or does the consumer have to go somewhere else to find answers about the topic?

   Sophistication of the information:

       Is this source too elementary, too technical, too advanced, or just right?
       Is the purpose of the site clearly stated? Does the site match its purpose? Is the site intended to educate or sell?

   Submit a 3-5 page analysis paper following APA format (include title page, running head, introduction, headings, Summary paragraph, reference page, in-text citation). You need to include at least 5 reliable and current (within the last 5 years) references of which at least 3 journal articles.

Create a one-page patient education tool that explains usage of a medication and factors that can affect outcomes. Then, write 2–3 pages in which you explain how the tool promotes patient safety and quality outcomes, and adheres to the principles and practices of cultural competence.

By successfully completing this assessment, you will demonstrate your proficiency in the following course competencies and assessment criteria:

Show Less  

• Competency 1: Apply practice guidelines and standards of evidence-based practice related to pharmacology for safe and effective nursing practice.       
  • Explain the appropriate use of a medication.
  • Explain how a patient education tool promotes patient safety related to pharmacology.
• Competency 2: Explain the relationship between quality patient outcomes, patient safety, and the appropriate use of pharmacology and psychopharmacology.       
  • Identify specific factors that may affect the efficacy of a medication.
  • Describe possible chemical reactions, side effects, or other negative reactions a patient may experience from a medication.
  • Explain correct handling, storage, and disposal of a medication.
• Competency 3: Apply the principles and practices of cultural competence with regard to pharmacological interventions.       
  • Explain how a patient education tool adheres to the principles and practices of cultural competence.
• Competency 4: Communicate in a manner that is scholarly, professional, and consistent with the expectations of a nursing professional.       
  • Write content clearly and logically with correct use of grammar, punctuation, and mechanics.
  • Correctly format paper, citations, and references using current APA style. 

Imagine your supervisor has asked you to develop a patient education tool for new medication starts in your current area of practice. This tool needs to provide important information to the patient, yet be concise enough to require no more than one page.

Preparation

Review the suggested list of possible topics in Part 1 of the Requirements and then search the Capella library and the Internet for supporting resources. You will need to provide support for the information you choose to include in the patient education tool.

Requirements

Complete both Part 1 and Part 2 of this assessment. You may submit both parts in one document or submit them as separate documents. Be sure you complete both parts!

Submit a total of 4–5 pages. Write no more than one page for Part 1. Write 2–3 pages, plus a separate reference page, for Part 2.

Part 1: Patient Education Tool

Complete the following:

1. Choose one of the following topics as the basis for your patient education tool:      
   • Antibiotics (Amoxil/Amoxicillin) for pediatric ear infections.
   • Statin therapy (Zocor/Simvastatin) for a newly diagnosed patient with hypercholesterolemia.
   • Antihypertensive (ACE inhibitors/Lisinopril/Zestril) for a patient who was discovered to have hypertension at a health screening at work.
   • Drugs for treating gastric acidity (Proton pump inhibitors/antacids/H2 blockers) for a patient complaining of chronic indigestion and heartburn.
   • Ear drops or eye drops (or both) for an elderly patient.
   • Any newly released medication for a patient in your area of practice. This might be a new drug for diabetes, hypertension, or arthritis or a new antibiotic.
2. Include the following in your patient education tool:      
   • Explain appropriate use of the medication.
   • Identify specific factors (age, access, culture, and so on) that may affect the efficacy of the medication.
   • Describe possible chemical interactions, side effects, or other negative reactions patients need to be aware of.
   • Explain correct handling, storage, and disposal of the medication.
   • Include any other information you feel would be beneficial and promote patient safety and quality outcomes.

You may format Part 1, the patient education tool, any way you wish, but be sure it is logical and understandable by the typical patient who would use it. Feel free to include pictures or diagrams to reinforce the information.

Part 2: Evidence-Based Practice

Provide evidence for the information you included in the patient education tool:

• Explain how the information in the patient education tool promotes patient safety and quality outcomes.
• Explain how the patient education tool adheres to the principles and practices of cultural competence. In other words, is the tool appropriate for all cultures, genders, ages, et cetera; or could it be easily adapted for specific needs?

Format Part 2 according to APA guidelines. This is not a document you would provide to a patient but, for this assessment, it will provide faculty with the academic and professional principles necessary to evaluate your work.

Additional Requirements

• At least 2 current scholarly or professional resources.
• For Part 2 only:      
  • Use Times New Roman font, 12 point, double-spaced font.
