With the help of your doctor, set a personal A1C goal. This will help to know whether blood glucose is low or high. Continuous Glucose Monitoring System (CGMS) sensors are worn separately from the pump and placed under the skin to monitor the interstitial fluid glucose level.

Type 1 and 2 diabetes Asian community aged 40 and 47 years Healthy dieting and proper counting of carbs. If a patient sticks to a low-carb diet, you’ll feel less hungry, eat less, and lose weight more quickly than if you stick to a more traditional diet. Keeping the blood glucose under control. Your eyes, kidneys, heart, and blood vessels can all be damaged if your blood pressure is too high (ADA. 2016). A slash separates the two numbers used to represent blood pressure. For instance: 120/70. Both numbers should be below 80. The major strength understands how to control glucose and how to use insulin pump.

The major weakness is that there is the possibility of a third party changing the insulin pump. This could cause hypoglycemia.

Your A1C will go down if you eat the right foods and stick to a diet plan. The major strength is understanding diabetes management

The major weakness is that some of the natural remedies may not be working as expected.

 

Based on your research, what is your proposed education strategy?  Please explain your reason(s) for selecting this strategy:

My findings lead me to propose a address diet, physical exercise, medication use and Blood Glucose Self-Monitoring. Diet high in fruits, vegetables, whole grains, and lean proteins, as well as regular physical activity is critical aspects.  Because healthy diet, meal preparation, and exercise may lower a patient’s risk of developing diabetes, I chose this approach. Because weight reduction helps the pancreas to keep up with the insulin demand of the body, I would also include this as an option. Weight reduction may be all that is needed to get blood sugar levels back to normal, therefore eliminating diabetes. Monitor your blood sugar levels, and you’ll be able to change your health-related habits. Self-monitoring of blood glucose levels is recommended for all people with diabetes (SMBG).

Practicum Activities Reflection:

I selected the wound care department as the focus of my practicum because there is a significant communication problem to be resolved. It has been discovered that the department scored poorly with patients in regard to communication. My first activity was to observe the scorecards collected from patients during the last three months at their discharge or from outpatient services. Communication is an essential tool between doctors, nurses, and patients so I had to find the reason for poor communication and the solutions needed to resolve them. It was also discovered that the communication scores dropped after the hospital went through a change of ownership. Leadership Journal Template

ORDER A PLAGIARISM FREE PAPER NOW

The scorecards revealed that the patients were not satisfied with the care, and they complained that the doctors and nurses do not come to ask about their well-being and do not discuss their issues with them. My second activity was communicating with the directors, nurses, and the other hospital staff to know how they communicate with the patients. The patients do not need wound care treatment only, but they require the proper care overall. If the proper care is not given to the patients, the patient flow will decrease in the coming months. The patient satisfaction level is directly related to the number of patients and the department’s reputation. The surveys will continue to be collected throughout the practicum because I want to know the effect of ownership change and staff behavior toward the patients. The ownership change might also affect the staff behavior with the patients. The last three months were proved to be critical for the patients because it was found that there were soar comments about the hospital administration.

I observed that leadership styles are essential in the improvement of communication. Communication with the patients is essential because it brings value to the treatment, and the patient’s satisfaction will be enhanced. I will continue the survey of the patients to know the other impacts. I expect that these activities will help me improve the communication process, and the patients will feel better.

Application of Leadership:

            Professional responsibility and power, authenticity, integrity, and emotional intelligence are key factors of multiple leadership styles. During the observation and involvement of the preceptor activities, I felt that these factors were neglected. There was no element of emotional intelligence and authenticity in the leadership styles. During conversation with my preceptor, I realized that she favored the authoritarian leadership style with the patients and department staff. For authoritative leadership to be effective, team members must be given a clear goal to work toward and instructions for getting there. (Alqatawenh, 2018).

Various leadership styles can be implemented in the hospital, especially in the wound care department. The leadership styles are not easily changed altogether, but certain elements can be inserted into them. The first element that should be inserted in the leadership style is professional integrity. Professional integrity means that the patients should discuss the processes with the doctors, and the doctors/preceptors/nurses should give proper time to all the patients.

Professional integrity is one of the essential elements that should be inserted into the leadership styles. The next element that I would like to insert into the leadership styles is authenticity during the treatment. Authenticity in leadership means that all leaders must know their duties and responsibilities. The duty is not merely to admit the patients to the hospital and discharge them. The responsibilities include several factors like the care of patients and the proper administration of wound care treatments. The staff should discuss a patient’s condition with the family and encourage them to be involved in the care. All these elements are necessary for a patient, and if these elements are not provided there will be negative comments on the scorecard (Adi, 2019).

Last but not least, the leadership in hospital management or nursing involves protecting ethical principles. If the practices include ethics, the patients are satisfied; if there is a lack of implementation of the ethical tenets, the complaints will be increased. The principles include autonomy, beneficence, and justice. The leaders should think of these principles, and when the roots of problems and solutions are observed, they will meet a single factor known as communication. The patients have severe complaints about the lack of effective communication that should be resolved (DeConinck, 2018).

Practicum Project Preparation:

I have strong ideas about the project practicum because two essential concepts are involved. These are the leadership styles and the communication improvement. It is already explained that the leadership styles are numerous, and the leaders have to choose the appropriate one. I have planned to present the implementation of transformational and servant leadership within the department. Transformational leadership encourages the employees to learn that they are an essential part of an organization, and they have to work for the betterment of the organization. One of the essential elements that the project has made me learn is that effective leadership is essential in the success of leadership. The project has a massive role in my career because the practical observations are different from the theoretical concepts.

I have read a lot about leadership inefficiency and the lack of implementation of leadership styles. The project has made me learn that the situation exists in reality, and it helps me identify the real problems and solutions. I have learned different leadership styles like transformational and servant leadership, which I expect to implement in my career. Both the leadership styles are essential in the project, and the hospital management should learn them to the maximum extent (Gandolfi, 2018).

Leadership Video Reflection:

Servant leadership is an essential leadership style that many previous leaders observed in the past. The video was quite informational because it provided the lessons regarding servant leaders and the characteristics that should be present. The first thing that I have learned and am impressed with is that the leaders should understand that they are the servants of the public. They are appointed in the vital position of serving the people instead of giving them the orders. The leaders should learn that there is a differentiation between giving orders and leading the people through serving. The other aspect that I have learned from the servant leadership video is the power of a leader to listen and heal the patients. It is not only about the patients but the employees and customers. If the leader cannot listen to the employees, they do not have the leader’s personality. The leaders should always be concerned about the problems of the public and should resolve them (Nursing, 2016).

Practicum Project Plan/Proposal

 

The setting for my practicum project is within the Wound Care Department at my current employer, which has been scoring poorly when it comes to communication. I will be working with the department director Ms. Sylvia Coleman, and the project aim is to promote excellent communication within the department in order to provide an improvement on patient satisfaction ratings for the hospital. We need to give people a reason to care in order to promote a more pleasant and less stressful place to work we needed to work on the communication process amongst staff members and patients (Mazhisham et al., 2021). I found that a lot of the unsatisfactory comments regarding care were coming from the communication process within the department.  Practicum Project Plan/Proposal

The tools I used were the different tools that the hospital uses which were the discharged patient surveys as well as inpatient score cards. I will be using the information given to decipher the problems in communication that are most common from each of the surveys collected within the last 3 months and compare them with the patient surveys prior to the change of ownership. Ongoing inpatient surveys using score cards will be used, along with discharge patient surveys to obtain the sustainability of this project. I chose to work with the Wound Care Department because I conducted some brief research and found that there were a lot of comments regarding gaps in communication in the patient surveys that were collected from their specific patients. Coincidently, these comments increased after the hospital went through a change of ownership. In order to gain a better rating from patients receiving wound care I will have to put in quite a bit of work on revamping the communication tools used for them. The current tool appeared very confusing to me, and by improving this tool it will help reconcile individual patient wound care orders, improve patient satisfaction, and increase the quality of care.

  1. Family conflicts: Young adults living with mental illness are at risk of experiencing family conflicts. Relationships can be damaged due to stress depression, and anxiety leading to misunderstandings or conflicts (Shanbehzadeh et al., 2021). Vulnerable Population
  2. Social isolation: Young adults living with mental illness are at risk of social isolation. Some communities stigmatize mental health problems (Shanbehzadeh et al., 2021). This may cause individuals to be isolated from society.
  3. Relationship difficulties: Young adults with mental illness may experience relationship difficulties (Shanbehzadeh et al., 2021). An individual with mental illness may find it difficult to form or sustain new relationships.
  4. Drug abuse: individuals with mental illness are at risk of resorting to drug abuse (Kavoor, 2020). Such individuals may turn to drug abuse to distract themselves or as an attempt to alleviate the symptoms of the condition.
  5. Miss work: Young adults with mental illness are at increased risk of missing work. This may create problems at work leading to the loss of jobs (Kavoor, 2020).
  6. Miss school: Young adults with mental illness are at risk of missing school (Kavoor, 2020). This may cause them to lag behind in school work.
  7. Financial problems: Young adults with mental illness are at an increased risk of experiencing financial problems. Mental illness negatively impacts the productivity of individuals and their ability to sustain jobs which may cause an individual to lose their income (Kavoor, 2020).
  8. Homelessness: Individuals with mental illness are at risk of financial problems, losing their job, family conflicts, and relationship difficulties (Shanbehzadeh et al., 2021). All the above are risk factors for homelessness.
  9. Unhappiness: Individuals with mental illness are less happy. Factors such as conduct problems, depression, anxiety, and family conflict make it difficult for such people to be happy (Shanbehzadeh et al., 2021).
  10. Self-harm: individuals with mental illness are at an increased risk of self-harm (Shanbehzadeh et al., 2021). Mental illness may drive one to experience suicidal thoughts or inflict harm on themselves.

TYPE 2 DIABETES CONCEPT MAP

TYPE 2 DIABETES CONCEPT MAP

 

DISCUSSION

The purpose of a concept map is to show the relationships between various concepts, as well as to connect new ideas to older ones in order to create a logical hierarchy. Concept maps are a great way to organize and plan treatment options. This is especially true in the biopsychosocial health paradigm, which takes into consideration variables that go beyond the physical (Lee, Lim, & Park, 2018). In order to better understand how illness processes, medication experiences, and symptoms are linked, the nurse will create a definition map to explain the relationship between these aspects. TYPE 2 DIABETES CONCEPT MAP

ORDER A PLAGIARISM FREE PAPER NOW

Diabetes mellitus (DM) is a chronic metabolic disorder characterized by high blood glucose levels and the inability of the liver to metabolize carbohydrates, fats, and proteins because of insufficient or improper use of insulin. Diabetes is the primary cause of renal illness, amputations of the lower limbs, and recent instances of blindness among people in the United States (Oguntibeju, 2019).

Conditions or substances that worsen the glucose-insulin imbalance: diabetes type 1 previously diagnosed or not, intake exceeding the insulin necessary, pregnancy and puberty, unmanaged diabetes practice, disease load, sickness, depression, or mental disturbances.

Etiology: Insulin resistance is a condition in which the body’s cells are unable to properly use insulin after the pancreas has produced it. In the United States, it is caused by a malfunction in insulin synthesis.

High genetic predisposition; frequent obesity; elevated prevalence in particular ethnic groups, such as African, Latin, Asian American, Native American, and Pacific Islanders; Absent late or sustained hyperglycemia, no risk of ketoacidosis. Some of these characteristics may appear in people above the age of 30 (Rabi et al., 2020). Beta cells in the pancreas of the Langerhans Islets generate endogenous insulin. Receptors in the liver and muscle cells mediate the absorption of glycemia, which causes hyperglycemia. The pancreas secretes more insulin, resulting in temporary hyperinsulinemia coexisting with hyperglycemia, which increases the risk of cardiovascular disease and the development of diabetes. TYPE 2 DIABETES CONCEPT MAP

Compromise on what is anticipated or not essential based on the customer’s culinary demands. The SO should be included in the treatment package to ensure that everyone adheres to and fulfills the dietary guidelines after discharge. First and foremost, find out why the patient was having difficulty following the regimen by talking to him or her about their concerns regarding the medicine (Rabi et al., 2020).

It is important to educate patients on the need to take their prescription on time and how to manage their diet better to prevent further health issues. In order to enhance the relationship with the client of the medication’s name, establish a summary of when and how much may be taken. The patient should be instructed on how to handle situations when the normal range of values does not apply. Make it clear to the patient that he may check his glucose levels. The patient should be aware of the need for blood glucose monitoring before and throughout the meal.

In summation, as illustrated above, there are various risk factors. For instance, Diabetes mellitus type 2 is the most common condition in those over 60. Despite this, the illness has a greater impact on children and young adults and thus proper preventative, measures should be put in place. As a consequence of a weakening of the immune system, a wide range of infectious illnesses are often discovered. Those who have type 2 diabetes are 15 percent more likely to have a foot ulcer, which may lead to amputation, than those who have type 1. Low blood flow and a lack of preventive treatment make persons with type 2 diabetes more susceptible to develop foot ulcers. The diagnosis of this illness is made feasible by the use of clinical history, symptoms, age, co morbidities, BM measurement, and diagnostic tests.

NRNP 6635 Week 7 Medication-Induced Movement Disorders Assignment

NRNP 6635 Week 7 Medication-Induced Movement Disorders Assignment

Week 7: Schizophrenia and Other Psychotic Disorders; Medication-Induced Movement Disorders
At age 18, Rose rented her first apartment in the city. Although she had a short commute to work, Rose did not enjoy the chaos and noise of the city. Within months, Rose left her apartment in the city for a small, rural cabin in the country. It was then that Rose began to withdraw from family and friends. Generally, she avoided contact with others. Her co-workers noticed random, obscure drawings on scrap paper at her desk. Additionally, her co-workers noticed other strange behaviors. Frequently, Rose would whisper to herself, appear startled when people approached her desk, and stare at the ceiling at various times throughout the day. NRNP 6635 Week 7 Medication-Induced Movement Disorders Assignment

For individuals with disorders such as schizophrenia and other psychotic disorders, the development of mental disorder seldom occurs with a singular, defining symptom. Rather, many who experience such disorders show a range of unique symptoms. This range of symptoms may impede an individual’s ability to function in daily life. As a result, clinicians address a patient’s ability or inability to function in life.

This week, you explore psychotic disorders, including schizophrenia. You also explore medication-induced movement disorders and formulate a diagnosis for a patient in a case study. NRNP 6635 Week 7 Medication-Induced Movement Disorders Assignment

Learning Objectives
Students will:

Apply concepts, theories, and principles related to patient interviewing, diagnostic reasoning, and recording patient information
Formulate differential diagnoses using DSM-5 criteria for patients with schizophrenia, other psychotic disorders, and medication-induced movement disorders across the life span

00:00:15OFF CAMERA Ms. Branning, Mr. Nehring asked suggested you see me. He said your having some issues at work.

00:00:20MS. BRANNING You could call them that.

00:00:20OFF CAMERA What kind of difficulty are you having at work?

00:00:25MS. BRANNING Well Mr. Nehring wants to fire me.

00:00:30OFF CAMERA Why do you think Mr. Nehring wants to fire you?

00:00:30MS. BRANNING Because Eric is in love with me. And it’s probably getting in the way. And he wants to fire me.

00:00:40OFF CAMERA Who is Eric?

00:00:40MS. BRANNING Eric is my supervisor.

00:00:45OFF CAMERA Are the two of you in a relationship?

00:00:45MS. BRANNING No! Eric has his own girlfriend, I have my own boyfriend. But Mr. Nehring got it in his head that this is my fault. And they’ve been ganging up against me.

00:01:00OFF CAMERA What happened to make you feel this way?

00:01:00MS. BRANNING Eric is lustful for me. Lust. Lustful.

00:01:10OFF CAMERA Well has Eric done anything inappropriate?

00:01:10MS. BRANNING No, he doesn’t have to.

00:01:15OFF CAMERA What do you mean? NRNP 6635 Week 7 Medication-Induced Movement Disorders Assignment

00:01:15MS. BRANNING Well, he has this way of walking toward me and he gives me the easiest assignments to do and he asks me to voice my opinion a lot in our weekly meetings. And I’m beautiful. I mean, not to be boastful or anything but I’m a strong woman. And people are attracted to that. And others, like Mr. Nehring feel threatened by it. He probably feels I could replace him in a couple years. And I could.

00:01:45OFF CAMERA But there have been no instances of sexual harassment.

00:01:50MS. BRANNING No. And now they want to fire me, and it’s probably because they don’t want me to get in the way of their day. I’m probably a distraction or something.

00:02:00OFF CAMERA According to Mr. Nehring you haven’t made a sale in three weeks.

00:02:05MS. BRANNING Oh, it’s been a slow time period. I guess it wouldn’t be bad thing if they fired me. I mean after all of this, all the bad it’s done for my health. You know I should really sue for discrimination, you know the stress and the health problems.

00:02:25OFF CAMERA You’ve been having health problems?

00:02:25MS. BRANNING Yes. Yes. It keeps getting worse.

00:02:30OFF CAMERA Can you describe it for me?

00:02:30MS. BRANNING Well you know there’s this pain in my neck, it aches, it spreads to my back, I think there’s a lump, right here. I’m really worried.

00:02:55OFF CAMERA And what do you feel is the cause?

00:02:55MS. BRANNING I told you, pain, suffering, broken heart. I think it’s cancer.

00:03:05OFF CAMERA Have you been seen by a doctor?

00:03:10MS. BRANNING No. But it’s probably cancer. And it’s slowly killing me. And it’s all because of them. And Eric’s obsession with me.

00:03:20OFF CAMERA Ms Branning, I don’t think you have to worry, a broken heart can’t cause cancer.

00:03:25MS. BRANNING You never know until it happens.

Assignment: Assessing and Diagnosing Patients With Schizophrenia, Other Psychotic Disorders, and Medication-Induced Movement Disorders

Photo Credit: [Hero Images]/[Hero Images]/Getty Images

Psychotic disorders and schizophrenia are some of the most complicated and challenging diagnoses in the DSM. The symptoms of psychotic disorders may appear quite vivid in some patients; with others, symptoms may be barely observable. Additionally, symptoms may overlap among disorders. For example, specific symptoms, such as neurocognitive impairments, social problems, and illusions may exist in patients with schizophrenia but are also contributing symptoms for other psychotic disorders.

For this Assignment, you will analyze a case study related to schizophrenia, another psychotic disorder, or a medication-induced movement disorder.

To Prepare:
Review this week’s Learning Resources and consider the insights they provide about assessing and diagnosing psychotic disorders. Consider whether experiences of psychosis-related symptoms are always indicative of a diagnosis of schizophrenia. Think about alternative diagnoses for psychosis-related symptoms.
Download the Comprehensive Psychiatric Evaluation Template, which you will use to complete this Assignment. Also review the Comprehensive Psychiatric Evaluation Exemplar to see an example of a completed evaluation document.
By Day 1 of this week, select a specific video case study to use for this Assignment from the Video Case Selections choices in the Learning Resources. View your assigned video case and review the additional data for the case in the “Case History Reports” document, keeping the requirements of the evaluation template in mind.
Consider what history would be necessary to collect from this patient.
Consider what interview questions you would need to ask this patient.
Identify at least three possible differential diagnoses for the patient. NRNP 6635 Week 7 Medication-Induced Movement Disorders Assignment

By Day 7 of Week 7
Complete and submit your Comprehensive Psychiatric Evaluation, including your differential diagnosis and critical-thinking process to formulate primary diagnosis.

Incorporate the following into your responses in the template:

Subjective: What details did the patient provide regarding their chief complaint and symptomology to derive your differential diagnosis? What is the duration and severity of their symptoms? How are their symptoms impacting their functioning in life?
Objective: What observations did you make during the psychiatric assessment?
Assessment: Discuss the patient’s mental status examination results. What were your differential diagnoses? Provide a minimum of three possible diagnoses with supporting evidence, listed in order from highest priority to lowest priority. Compare the DSM-5 diagnostic criteria for each differential diagnosis and explain what DSM-5 criteria rules out the differential diagnosis to find an accurate diagnosis. Explain the critical-thinking process that led you to the primary diagnosis you selected. Include pertinent positives and pertinent negatives for the specific patient case.
Reflection notes: What would you do differently with this client if you could conduct the session over? Also include in your reflection a discussion related to legal/ethical considerations (demonstrate critical thinking beyond confidentiality and consent for treatment!), health promotion and disease prevention taking into consideration patient factors (such as age, ethnic group, etc.), PMH, and other risk factors (e.g., socioeconomic, cultural background, etc.).
