In order to write a case study paper, you must carefully address a number of sections in a specific order with specific information contained in each. The guideline below outlines each of those sections.
Section
Information to Include
Introduction (patient and problem)
Explain who the patient is (Age, gender, etc.)
Explain what the problem is (What was he/she diagnosed with, or what happened?)
Introduce your main argument (What should you as a nurse focus on or do?)
Pathophysiology
Explain the disease (What are the symptoms? What causes it?)
History
Explain what health problems the patient has (Has she/he been diagnosed with other diseases?)
Detail any and all previous treatments (Has she/he had any prior surgeries or is he/she on medication?)
Nursing Physical Assessment
List all the patient’s health stats in sentences with specific numbers/levels (Blood pressure, bowel sounds, ambulation, etc.)
Related Treatments
Explain what treatments the patient is receiving because of his/her disease
Nursing Diagnosis & Patient Goal
Explain what your nursing diagnosis is (What is the main problem for this patient? What need to be addressed?)
Explain what your goal is for helping the patient recover (What do you want to change for the patient?)
Nursing Interventions
Explain how you will accomplish your nursing goals, and support this with citations (Reference the literature)
Evaluation
Explain how effective the nursing intervention was (What happened after your nursing intervention? Did the patient get better?)
Recommendations
Explain what the patient or nurse should do in the future to continue recovery/improvement
Your paper should be 3-4 pages in length and will be graded on how well you complete each of the above sections. You will also be graded on your use of APA style and on your application of nursing journals into the treatments and interventions. For integrating nursing journals, remember the following: Make sure to integrate citations into all of your paper
Support all claims of what the disease is, why it occurs and how to treat it with references to the literature on this disease
Always use citations for information that you learned from a book or article; if you do not cite it, you are telling your reader that YOU discovered that information (how to treat the disease, etc.)
Review the rubric for specific grading criteria. Points possible: 65

Hello Everyone,
Use this for your signature assignment. You must create a patient. History of current condition, prior medical conditions. Basically it is an intake. Use this for your SOAP note form. SOAP Note TemplateDownload SOAP Note Template
You must include a short paragraph after the SOAP note, in this paragraph you will be explaining to the patient what happened, what are the treatments, and what happens if the patient does not comply. Do this in your own words, simple to the point, and most importantly compassionate
.Per instructor we should not choose simple diseases like UTI and go with something more. complicated

Learning Goal: I’m working on a nursing discussion question and need guidance to help me learn.
Theory, Practice, & Research
Discuss the interrelationship among theory, practice, and research.
Submission Instructions:
Your initial post should be at least 500 words, formatted and cited in current APA style with support from at least 2 references from academic journals no older than five years.

How healthy is your workplace?
You may think your current organization operates seamlessly, or you may feel it has many issues. You may experience or even observe things that give you pause. Yet, much as you wouldn’t try to determine the health of a patient through mere observation, you should not attempt to gauge the health of your work environment based on observation and opinion. Often, there are issues you perceive as problems that others do not; similarly, issues may run much deeper than leadership recognizes.
There are many factors and measures that may impact organizational health. Among these is civility. While an organization can institute policies designed to promote such things as civility, how can it be sure these are managed effectively? In this Discussion, you will examine the use of tools in measuring workplace civility.
Post a brief description of the results of your Work Environment Assessment. Based on the results, how civil is your workplace? Explain why your workplace is or is not civil. Then, describe a situation where you have experienced incivility in the workplace. How was this addressed? Be specific and provide examples.

A 23-year-old biracial (Black Asian) female arrives at the clinic for an evaluation. She has lost 30 pounds in 6 weeks without trying. She complains of feelings of guilt about her symptoms and everyday sadness that does not go away. She also states she is not able to stay asleep and has difficulty concentrating. Her family is Jamaican and has used herbal teas, not a psychiatrist in the past to treat these symptoms.
Discuss how the principles of good prescribing should be applied to this case. Describe a cultural consideration that may affect medication adherence for this patient.

Once you have selected your concept, you will identify a patient case to which you can apply your chosen concept. You may use a current patient, such as from an on-ground DFC, or a patient situation from a previous encounter. If you do not have access to a current/live patient experience that can be utilized for this assignment, you may access a simulated patient experience from a previous VCBC.
The patient you choose might have multiple co-morbidities. Build your concept map around the concept you chose; this might not necessarily be the patient’s priority concern. For example, you chose the concept of ‘Infection’ from your ‘Weak Performance Areas’ on the HESI Dashboard. Your patient might have co-morbidities related to Perfusion and Gas Exchange which will most often be a higher priority than ‘Infection’. However, to increase your knowledge about ‘Infection’, complete you map according to cues (signs and symptoms) and appropriate interventions related to ‘Infection’. Your Concepts for Nursing Practice eBook can serve as a resource for information regarding interrelated concepts.
You now have your concept and your patient. Familiarize yourself with the rubric and the assignment requirements; then you are ready to begin.
Gather the patient data and organize the information on the nursing process template of the Concept Map Worksheet. The nursing process template (located on page 1 of the assignment) will help you complete the concept map assignment located on page 2. The example below shows how the nursing process relates to clinical judgment.
Nsg Process & CJ.PNG
After completing the nursing process template, utilize this information to help you build the concept map assignment. The arrows in the map show you the order in which the map is intended to be completed. All boxes should be completed related to the concept you chose.
1. Recognize cues. What matter the most? What client findings are significant, most important, and of immediate concern to the nurse?
2. What is the pathophysiology and disease process affecting this client?
3. Analyze the cues. How are the cues related? How do they link to the client’s conditions/problems?
4. Prioritize hypotheses. Rank the client’s conditions/problems in order of severity and complexity. What is most important?
5. Generate solutions. What are the desired outcomes for this client rated to your identified concept? Identify SMART goals for this client. What interventions support achieving the desired outcomes?
6. Take action. Implement your identified interventions. How will you accomplish these interventions?
7. Evaluate the outcomes. How will you determine the effectiveness of your interventions?
Give credit to your references. You do not need a separate ‘Reference Page’, but APA-style references should be identified at the bottom of the assignment.
