NURBN3021 Assessment Task 3

Diverse Populations & Nursing Practice

Weighting: 40%

Purpose: Develop a nursing practice plan using the Registered Nurse Standards for strategies in managing the health issues that impact those of a chosen diverse population in the local, national, or global community of Australia.

Word Count: Between 2200-2500 words in length

Format: You are required to use headings to structure your report. Do not include a defined Introduction or Concluding paragraphs. The Report will be presented as a formal academic paper.

Description:

In this assignment students are required to:

Choose one diverse population of your choice based on the populations outlined in the course content, that is: children, older person, men, women, minority groups, culturally and linguistically diverse persons, those with a physical or mental disability.

Then present a report discussing the key areas to follow. You will also propose a nursing plan that seeks to address one of the health outcomes you have discovered for this group.

Within your assignment you need to begin with:

  • WHY your chosen population is considered diverse and include:
    o Social determinants of health and how they impact this population;
    o Health inequalities (the differences in health status between population

groups) such as differences in wellbeing, risk of disease, abuse/violence,

healthy life expectancy, morbidity and mortality;
o Health inequities (differences in health status between population groups that

are socially produced, systematic in their unequal distribution across the

population, avoidable and unfair) such as difference in access, affordability,

income etc;
o Health outcomes – Discuss key health issues impacting this population ie

certain disease, mental health issues, injuries etc

(Approx.1200 words)

  • Discuss the nursing care considerations that would be important in caring for an individual of this population. Your discussion should highlight and link to three Registered Nurse Standards such as:

o Standard 2: Engaging in a therapeutic and professional relationship § How to communicate effectively, and how to be respectful of your chosen population’s dignity, culture, values, beliefs and rights.
§ How to provide support and direct your chosen population to resources to optimise their health-related decisions

(Approx.1200 words)

Referencing should be included using APA 7th Edition guidelines. It is expected that the students use peer reviewed sources for referencing. For this assessment and to support your findings, you are to use at least 15 peer-reviewed references in your paper.

NURS 6351: Role of the Nurse Educator

Week 3: Relationships That Foster Growth – Mentors and Preceptors

Isaac Newton’s scientific work in the 1700s led to a great deal of understanding about physics. Allegedly struck in the head by a falling apple, Newton went on to develop theories that explain why anything with mass (like an apple) is attracted toward the source of a gravitational force (like the Earth). In effect, we learned that gravity is the force that keeps our feet on the ground and prevents us from floating away.

If you reflect on some of your most memorable professional experiences, you may recall some that were not very positive. Perhaps these relationships acted like gravity, restricting your efforts to reach desired heights. On one hand, the role of mentors and preceptors is to work like a gravitational force as well, helping to keep learners’ feet on the ground while guiding them through the trials of learning and growing within the profession. On the other hand, these relationships help learners rise beyond these trials and reach the goals they have established.

This week, you examine the impact that mentors and preceptors can have on professional goal attainment. With an appreciation for this impact, you will propose a plan for seeking a mentor who can help with your journey. This plan will inform your completion and submission of the Practicum Experience Plan.

Learning Objectives

Students will:

  • Contrast mentors and preceptors
  • Describe strategies for using mentoring to facilitate professional/career  development in the context of nursing education
  • Develop measurable individualized practicum objectives
  • Develop a Practicum Experience Plan
  • Construct a time log to facilitate practicum time management
  • Synthesize the literature and nurse educator competencies to justify practicum projects*

Briefly and concisely summarize the history and physical (H&P) findings as if you were presenting it to your preceptor using the pertinent facts from the case.

/in /by

Requirements:
1. Briefly and concisely summarize the history and physical (H&P) findings as if you were presenting it to your preceptor using the pertinent facts from the case. Use shorthand where possible and approved medical abbreviations. Avoid redundancy and irrelevant information.
2. Provide a differential diagnosis (minimum of 3) which might explain the patient’s chief complaint along with a brief statement of pathophysiology for each.
3. Analyze the differential by using the pertinent findings from the history and physical to argue for or against a diagnosis.
4. Rank the differential in order of most likely to least likely.
5. Identify any additional tests and/or procedures that you feel is necessary or needed to help you narrow your differential. All testing decisions must be supported with an evidence-based medicine (EBM) argument as to why it is necessary or pertinent in this case. If no testing is indicated or needed, you must also support this decision with EBM evidence.
** Reference must be no later than 5 years old (Unless it uses current best practice guidelines).
** Attached is the information for this case study.
