NRP543 Management Of Pediatric And Adolescent Populations Week 2 Assignment Child Morbidity and Mortality Presentation

Assignment Content

Develop a 10- to 15-slide Microsoft® PowerPoint® presentation with detailed speaker notes for each slide that addresses the child morbidity or mortality issue chosen in Week 1 (breastfeeding, SIDS, immunizations, early childhood caries, bully behavior, fall prevention, obesity, passenger/young driver safety, safe sex, sports participation). Refer to the the Child Morbidity and Mortality assignment.

Address the following in your presentation:

Summarize the topic you selected, including your findings from the research. Define the relevance of the topic as it relates to children's health and clinical FNP practice.

How will you address these barriers? What community resources are available in your state of practice to help with financial barriers, including services for uninsured and underinsured pediatric patients? Provide your recommended patient education plan addressing and managing the issue. Include a minimum of 2 academic resources that support your findings. NRP543 Management Of Pediatric And Adolescent Populations Week 3 Assignment Immunization Counseling Paper

Assignment Content

Controversy has always existed surrounding the concept of required immunizations. In practice, you may frequently engage in conversations with parents and guardians who are trying to better understand their options with the goal of choosing the safest treatment plan for their child. Confusion exists regarding what is required for entry into public school and what is recommended by the CDC.

Respond to the following scenario by creating a 750-word summary:

Mrs. Clara Baker comes to you with her son Isaac, a five-year-old who is preparing to enter public school. Isaac has never been vaccinated before, and she knows he will need some vaccines for school, but she has been hesitant to have him vaccinated in the past. Isaac is a healthy five-year-old without any significant past medical history. He was born full-term via vaginal delivery in the hospital, where he did receive his first hepatitis B vaccine before being discharged the next day. He has had regular well child checks since birth, but until now Clara has refused all vaccinations.

Address the following:

How will you, as the FNP, counsel Mom about immunization recommendations and safety? What immunizations would you recommend for Isaac today? What education would you provide Mom regarding common reactions and unexpected adverse events? What would your recommendation for follow-up be? NRP543 Management Of Pediatric And Adolescent Populations Week 4 Assignment i-Human Emma Ryan Lab and Reflection

Assignment Content

i-Human simulates a patient situation you may encounter in a clinical setting. This is an opportunity to practice your skills in taking a history, performing a physical exam, and developing a diagnosis and treatment plan. Access i-Human Patients using the link in the Course Content section. Part I Complete the health history assessment available at the beginning of the Emma Ryan case. Part II

Complete the patient encounter for Emma Ryan by completing the following steps:

Interview Emma Ryan to obtain her complete patient history. Document your findings in i-Human. Complete a health assessment and focused physical exam based on current evidence. Document your health assessment and focused physical exam findings and develop a problem list and diagnosis for Emma Ryan. Review the i-Human Patients Case Player Instructions, which includes helpful tips for completing the patient simulation. Note: Scores will be recorded in I-Human Patients; there is nothing to submit in the classroom for this portion of the assignment. Your I-Human Patients Lab score will be determined strictly based on completion. Use the lab to complete the patient stimulation to the best of your ability since you will use this experience to complete the associated Reflection assignment. The detailed summary of your lab is an excellent opportunity to review techniques that will help advance best practices associated with health assessments. Read 1 of the recommended evidence-based practice academic articles provided at the end of the case or locate and read an academic article from the University Library that relates to the conditions presented in the Emma Ryan case. Write a 350-word summary of how you can utilize the findings from the article to improve your clinical decision-making skills.

Include the following in your analysis:

Are there techniques identified in the article that can be used to improve your clinical skills? If so, explain. Now that the final diagnosis has been revealed, identify, and provide the rationale for your top 3 differential diagnoses for Emma. How would you rule each in/out? Explain how you can apply the information you learned from your patient encounter and the evidence-based practice article in the clinical setting. Format your summary using APA guidelines.
