You are a physician’s assistant at a local medical practice. You noticed that some of your patients could benefit from additional educational materials, especially to be given after their appointment or made available on your practice’s website. Your colleagues could benefit from reading this information and may also find it helpful to have on hand in case a patient poses similar questions to them in the future.
Choose a single pathogen or health topic related to infection and research medical facts about the condition and current medical recommendations. In planning your answer, select a relationship of the author with the audience. Examples include: doctor to patient, nurse educator to other nurses, or counselor to family members of a patient.
Provide an informational brochure or blog post in the form of a Q&A or an expert advice column. Include five (5) or more original questions. The answers should be original, factual, and provide relevant information for the audience. Assume your target audience is not familiar with the material but would have a keen interest in learning more.
Your complete Q&A should include at least five individual questions with complete answers. Clearly identify the question and answer (e.g., “Q:” before the question) and go into detail in each answer. You may advise the reader to read more elsewhere, but first be sure each question in your submission has a thorough, informational answer.
