Select a community health issue that evokes passion in you. Research the facts about the issue and select an appropriate political figure to which you will compose a factual letter advocating for community health as it relates to your chosen issue. Handwritten letters will not be accepted. The structure of the letter must follow that of the following link. This exercise is intended to create the opportunity for students to explore the complexities of advocacy considering commitments to both patientcentered care and safety.

Bipolar Case

Case StudyJill, a 24 y/o Hispanic female arrives in the emergency room where her parents brought her for evaluation. They are worried because she is giving away all of her possessions and says she is planning to move to the South Pole so she can “save the world.” Her parents say that she has hardly been sleeping at all for the last 7 days, but she seems very energetic. They say she has appeared to be “in a frenzy” lately. When you interview Jill you notice that she speaks very rapidly and is laughing uncontrollably. It is hard to get her to be quiet long enough for you to ask questions. She seems agitated and has difficulty sitting still.

Questions:Remember to answer these questions from your textbooks and clinical guidelines to create your evidence-based treatment plan. At all times, explain your answers.

1. Summarize the clinical case including the significant subjective and objective data.
2. Generate a primary and two differential diagnoses. Use the DSM5 to support the assessment. Include the DSM5 and ICD 10 codes.
3. Discuss a pharmacological treatment would you prescribe? Use the clinical guidelines to support the rationale for this treatment.
4. Discuss non-pharmacological treatment would you prescribe? Use the clinical guidelines to support the rationale for this treatment.
5. Describe a health promotion intervention that would be appropriate for this patient.

Create an infographic geared to the specific marginalized population you chose in Marginalized Race and Ethnicity

• Demonstrate an understanding of the challenges and bias this population faces, particularly when obtaining health care.
• List specific health promotion needs that are related to this population.
• The goals of this project are to demonstrate how health care is perceived by this population of diversity and to improve providers understanding of this population.
• Use for in-text citations. You may put these in a very small font.
• Use at least three scholarly references, preferably from provider-based or NP-based journals.

Take time to look at other infographics and see what catches your attention and what does not. Watch my instructional video TIPS and TRICKS. Learn from what you observe. Incorporate a YouTube video (three to five minutes) to show how your population feels or the challenges they face, or upload one with your assignment separately.

An infographic is much like a commercial; you must tell the most important parts of your story in a way that visually catches the eye and engages your audience. The story must flow and be told in pictures, graphs, and/or short video clips.

Venngage and Canva offer a free trial that you may use. You also have the option to find other free infographic sites on your own. Some allow you to download what you create (Canva), and on Venngage you need to copy the public link and post that in the assignment. Here are some helpful tips for how to use Venngage as well as a link to Canva:

Guidelines for

The Windshield Survey

Explanation:

Each person will enter their community by conducting a windshield survey. As the

name implies, students will observe the communities that they have targeted by driving

around the neighborhood and/or walking around the neighborhood on foot. If the

community is a workplace, school, or some other institution, a windshield survey of the

neighborhood should still be done as well as a tour of the facility. If the community

chosen is a phenomenological community, a windshield survey should be done in the

neighborhoods(s) where this community resides. For example if Cambodians in

Shawnee are targeted then a windshield survey of where Cambodians live should be

done.

During the windshield survey, students should note the following:

The infrastructure such as buildings, bridges, parks etc.

Are there sidewalks? Any safety issues?

What types of buildings are seen? Are they new or old?

What types of schools are seen? What other type educational institutions such

as trade schools or universities are seen?

What type of health services to you see?

How many churches are seen?

What type of housing is available? Are there empty houses and building?

Are lawns unkempt? Are houses in need of repair?

What goods available to buy? What types of businesses are in the community?

What about the environment? Is there pollution? Is litter seen? Are there trees

and places where nature can be seen?

What are people seen doing? Where do people gather?

What type of entertainment is available?

Places to exercise and be physically active?

Markets with fresh fruits and vegetables?

Local newspapers or other types of media?

Law enforcement?

What can you see from just driving around and observing?

Demographic and other types of information that cannot be seen from a windshield

survey need not be included in the windshield survey.

There are many examples of windshield surveys of communities found on youtube.

You will complete

1. Review the Case Study: Begin by thoroughly reading the case study.
2. Find Six Scholarly Articles: Identify six qualitative or quantitative research articles from scholarly journals that relate to the case study.
3. Consider Key Questions: As you review the articles, reflect on the following:

• What do you know about CAUTIs and evidence-based nursing interventions?
• What interventions would you implement to address the identified problem?
• What leadership style do you align with, and how would you apply it in this scenario?

Hide Assignment Information Instructions Instructions Throughout this course, you will begin to write sections for your final paper. As you write these one-page essays, keep in mind what perspective you want your final paper to approach the subject might be. For example, if you want to contrast the roles of the LPN and RN based on board of nursing rules or professional organizations, then each paper try to incorporate that same voice. This will make putting together the final paper less time-consuming. Please see the general guidelines below. Prompt For this module, write a one-page paper on the art of performing a patient assessment. Remember, view the paper through a similar lens as the papers before since this one-pager paper will be combined for the final paper. Guidelines Weekly paper assignments are to be no longer than 500-750 words/1 page Paper. Font no smaller than 11, black in color, and either Times New Roman or Arial. Must use five references, one of which can be your textbook. Papers found to be less than 90% original will be given a zero, so make sure to summarize your references and not copy and paste. Use of AI or non-academic resources such as Wikipedia will immediately receive a zero score. Be original. Have fun with this! Rubrics: Integration of Knowledge The paper demonstrates that the author fully understands and has applied concepts learned in the course. Concepts are integrated into the writers own insights. The writer provides concluding remarks that show analysis and synthesis of ideas. Topic Focus The topic is focused narrowly enough for the scope of this assignment. A thesis statement provides direction for the paper, either by statement of a position or hypothesis. Depth of Discussion In-depth discussion & elaboration in all sections of the paper. Cohesiveness Ties together information from all sources. Paper flows from one issue to the next without the need for headings. Author’s writing demonstrates an understanding of the relationship among material obtained from all sources. Sources More than 5 current sources, of which at least 3 are peer- review journal articles or scholarly books. Sources include both general background sources and specialized sources. Special- interest sources and popular literature are acknowledged as such if they are cited. All web sites utilized are authoritative. Citations Cites all data obtained from other sources. APA citation style is used in both text and bibliography.
