Community Needs and Health Screening Initiative Directions

/in /by

Community Needs and Health Screening Initiative

Directions

For this Assignment you will pick one recommended screening from United States Preventive Task Force A and B Recommendations.

An initiative is a project, an event, so something in the community is ideal. Workplace location for employees is fine too. Please include the following suggested level one headings so content is clear and easily identified.

Theory or Conceptual Model

Choose a theory or conceptual model that you think might work for your initiative and explain the theory or model here.  You may choose to independently research your model to help you explain its application to your initiative. If you have found another model you will like to use, not listed, contact your instructor.

Screening Purpose

Discuss why it is important to screen for this condition. This is where you address your community assessment and the reason for this need in your community/ population choice. Support your stance with statistics and information, ideally related to the location and population.

Population

Clearly address the demographics that are being screened; where they live, state, county, ages, races included etc. Provide a brief general community assessment as it related to the condition and the population.

Location/ Setting

Briefly explain where you are doing this. It should be very specific (e.g., Senior Citizen Center in Monroe Co on Saturday). Think about what kind of facility or area you will need. Include comments explaining how this location meets the needs of your target population and screening choice.

Screening Activity

This section is what you are doing at the screening and should completely align with the screening guideline for the condition. Also all health promotion screenings include some brief prevention education component.

 Outcome Goals

Bullet specific goals here. What do you hope to accomplish with your screening?

Cost

This is the cost for you to develop and conduct the initiative. It is best displayed as a brief Word table showing what it costs you to conduct the screening; paper, equipment, rentals etc. Volunteers are fine, but everything is not free. Students must demonstrate they can develop a cost estimate for a community screening intervention that is realistic and takes into account financials. If there is a cost for the attendees that should go here as well.

Summary

Provide a summary of your screening, general benefit to the community and why it is important. Master’s-prepared nurse educators, leaders, nurse practitioners and all specialty nursing fields are contributors to health promotion in populations across the life span. This Assignment is focused on preventive screening applications in the community, workplace or school settings. You should be able to apply this knowledge to their specialty focus as it relates to health promotion and epidemiology.

This should be a 3–4 page paper, excluding title page, and references. A person should be able to read your paper and understand fully what you are screening, where, when, the costs and how it is supported in the guideline. Ideally a person would be able to duplicate your screening initiative, based on the clarity you present. This paper should adhere

Case Study – Perioperative

/in /by

Case Study – Perioperative

Mrs. Jane Austin is a 59-year-old woman admitted to the operating theatre for a laparoscopic cholecystectomy under general anaesthetic following a diagnosis of cholelithiasis and cholecystitis.Mrs. Austin has a past medical history of hyperlipidaemia, hypertension, a body mass index of 28 and is a smoker. She is compliant with her regular medications Lipitor and Perindopril, and her blood pressure is well controlled.

Emergency Department Assessment (Pre-Operative):

Mrs. Austin presented to the emergency department following several bouts of severe right upper quadrant abdominal pain associated with uncontrolled nausea and vomiting. On examination she was tachycardic, febrile (elevated c-reactive protein) and complained of right upper quadrant tenderness on palpation. Mrs. Austin also complains of a recent intolerance to fatty foods, resulting in nausea when ingested. A duel diagnosis of cholelithiasis and cholecystitis was made via ultrasound. A pre-operative chest X-ray is clear.

Post-Anaesthetic Recovery Room (PACU):

You are working in the PACU and receive Mrs. Austin following her surgery (laparoscopic cholecystectomy). The anaesthetist reports the patient had some mild haemodynamic instability during insufflation and maintenance of pneumoperitoneum, and that the procedure was slightly longer than usual because the surgeon had difficulty visualising the common bile duct due to the patient’s weight.
