GIVE 3 MAIN FOCUS OF NCP PF THE PATIENT.

(Assessment, Nursing diagnosis, Background knowledge/Scientific explanation, Planning, Intervention and Rationale, Evaluation)

What are health risks typical within the Filipinos? Describe motivating socio-cultural factors that influence risk and why someone might engage in “risky behaviors” to gain something deemed more important (e.g. gender, status, economic need, moral code). Include any “rites of passage” that might apply that places people from your culture at risk (e.g. initiation into manhood or womanhood (i.e. genital cutting), marriage, and so on.

Identify the greatest health concerns for this cultural group by citing prevalence and incidence rates for health problems.

What can you learn about the Health and Illness in the Philippines or for Filipinos?

If there was one thing you could change in healthcare, what would it be?

John Doe entered ABC Hospital ER with c/o chest pain, SOB, and nausea. The doctor on call

Ordered an EKG, blood work, began a regimen of O2, and prescribed salicylic acid. The initial blood

work had the following findings: WBC 8300; RBC 5.3; normal levels of troponin; HDL 43; LDL 220;

BUN25.

John has a hx of CHF and CKD. John’s VS were as follows: BP 163/88; HR 93; RR 24. John takes medicine

for HTN and Nitro for angina pectoris. John is independent with ADL’s, lives alone, and amb with a WW.

The ER doctor ordered anxiety medication b.i.d. and continued with oxygen at 2mL. After further

Assessment, MI was ruled out.

John’s condition improved and he was sent home to f/u with his GP. He was ordered to begin cardiac rehabilitation and wear a heart monitor. The heart monitor was to assess his heart for a-fib.

Questions

1. Identify which blood tests were abnormal?
2. What did the doctor prescribe in the ER? How does this help?
3. What condition was ruled out? How did they rule this condition out?
4. What did John have prior to his visit to the ER?
5. What does John take medicine for?
6. Why is he wearing the heart monitor? What happens with this condition?
7. How often does he take anxiety medication?
8. What does ADL mean?
9. What do you know about his ability to walk?

briefly describe what assessment and care you provide and when?

CRITICAL THINKING:

1) What is venipuncture?

2) What are some problems that medical assistants may encounter when attempting to draw blood from patients – and particularly from elderly patients?

3) Susan, a medical assistant, is having trouble finding a venipuncture site on the left arm of her patient, Gabel, although Susan has thoroughly assessed and palpated the antecubital veins, including the bigger median cubital vein. Gabel doesn’t want Susan to draw blood from her right arm. What techniques are available to Susan to make the veins on Gabel’s left arm more prominent?

write a script for a podcast that needs to be at least five minutes long and you need to talk about healthy food and unhealthy food.

in your script, you must answer these two main questions :

What are superfoods and what exactly are they used for? Do we need to go to the gym? to stay healthy...

what is healthy and unhealthy food (junk food)

you have to include the advantages and the disadvantages of healthy and unhealthy food.

If we eat badly what disease can we have

I just need the script i will create the podcast by myself.
