(PO 1)CO 4 – Identify teaching/learning needs from the health history of an individual. (PO 2)Discussion In Week 6 you demonstrated a head to toe assessment of an adult participant. This week you and your classmates will reflect on the assessment you performed for your video assignment, and also apply this week’s lesson on family assessment. Please consider the following in your initial post: Reflect on the assessment you performed for the video assignment. Perhaps you might compare your performance now, to how it might have been different when you were a brand new nurse? Or share something you learned (or were reminded of) by participating in this activity? Based on your observations, do you feel that patient assessments performed in practice are as thorough as they should be? Explain your answer. This week’s lesson focuses on assessment of families and introduces specific assessment opportunities for racially diverse, same sex, and adoptive families. Select one of these three non-traditional families. How would your assessment technique change to be sure that you were competently caring for a member of this type of family unit? This may include questions you would add to the health history, or ways in which you would communicate. Purchase this Tutorial. https://aptitudenursingpapers.com/
