NR305 Health Assessment for the Practicing RN

Week 4 Assignment

Patient Teaching Plan

Purpose

To create a Patient Teaching Plan aimed at educating a
specific patient population about a specific health topic. This plan will be
used to develop a Visual Teaching Tool in a future assignment.

Course Outcomes

This assignment enables the student to meet the following
course outcomes.

CO 2: Recognize the influence that developmental stages have
on physical, psychosocial, cultural, and spiritual functioning. (PO #1)

CO 4: Identify teaching/learning needs from the health
history of an individual. (PO #2)

Background Information

NR305 focuses on nursing assessment, and the identification
of opportunities to prevent disease and improve health of patients. An
important professional role for nurses is to provide teaching to patients based
on knowledge deficits identified during assessment.

Prior to beginning this assignment, follow the link to read
the article below. The information related to adult learning and barriers to
understanding will be helpful when planning how to best educate your selected
population.

Beagley, L. (2011). Educating patients: Understanding
barriers, learning styles, and teaching techniques. Journal of Paranesthesia
Nursing, 26(5), 331-337. permalink (Links to an external site.)Links to an

references and citations used should be written in APA format. Please utilize
in-text citations when appropriate, and list all references in the space
provided at the end of the worksheet.

You are required to complete the form using the productivity

Health Topic: Decide WHAT you would like to teach.

Select from the following health topics to complete your
Patient Teaching Project:

Stress and Time Management

Self-Care (can choose a specific self-care activity)

Prevention of Hazards at Work

Bicycle Safety

Ergonomics (related to work, posture)

Skin Cancer Prevention

Healthy Eating

Exercise/Physical Activity

Suicide

Human Trafficking

Eating Disorders

Substance Abuse (Opioid, Alcohol, Nicotine)

Depression

Palliative Care/Hospice Care

Population and Setting: Once you have selected a topic, you must
decide WHO you will be teaching and WHERE the education will take place. (i.e.,
teaching a classroom of middle school students; teaching community members at a
local health fair)

Learning Barriers: Refer to the assigned article: Educating
patients: Understanding barriers, learning styles, and teaching techniques for
information related to learning barriers and other teaching considerations.
Barriers might be cultural, physical, educational, or environmental. You may
also want to consider the developmental stages of your selected population.

Example:

The population in this community is known to have a
low-literacy level, therefore clear pictures and graphics will be utilized to
assist with understanding.

Learning Objectives: Write three specific learning
objectives your Visual Teaching Tool will address. Begin each objective with
“At the end of this education, the learner will …” Use an action
verb to finish the sentence (i.e., list, demonstrate, describe, define,
identify).

Example:

At the end of this education, the learner will be able to
demonstrate the proper way to wear a bike helmet.

At the end of this education, the learner will be able to
describe how to perform a breast self-exam.

At the end of this education, the learner will be able to
list three benefits of regular physical activity.

Evaluation: Write a paragraph describing how you could
evaluate whether your visual teaching tool was successful and met the learning
objectives. Consider the population’s abilities and the setting.

assignment) to create a Visual Teaching Tool to educate the selected patient
population about the selected health topic.

on physical, psychosocial, cultural, and spiritual functioning. (PO #1)

CO 4: Identify teaching/learning needs from the health
history of an individual. (PO #2)

Select an Option to Complete this Assignment

There are 3 options for creating your Visual Teaching Tool.
Be sure to choose a format that makes sense for your selected topic,
population, and setting. For example, if will be teaching adults at a health
fair, then an educational brochure would be an appropriate choice. You must use
the Patient Teaching Plan you have developed in this course to create your
Visual Teaching Tool.

Option #1 – Power Point

Directions:

Create a 6-8 slide Power Point presentation for your
selected population setting.

The goal of this Power Point Presentation is to address the
three learning outcomes you developed in the Patient Teaching Plan. Once the
learner has viewed your Power Point, all three of the learning objectives
should have been met.

For Example:

If a learning objective in the teaching plan is: “At the end
of this education, the learner will be able to demonstrate the proper way to
wear a bike helmet,” then there should be content in your Power Point related
to how to properly wear a bike helmet.

Tips for a great Power Point presentation:

PowerPoint presentation) to enhance visual appeal.

Incorporate graphics, clip art, or photographs to increase
interest.

learner has viewed your Educational Brochure, all three of the learning
objectives should have been met.

For Example:

If a learning objective in the Patient Teaching Plan is: “At
the end of this education, the learner will be able to demonstrate the proper
way to wear a bike helmet,” then there should be content in your Educational
Brochure related to how to properly wear a bike helmet.

If you are tech savvy and feeling creative – create an
infographic! Infographics are a way to communicate information visually,
through a combination of text and graphics. Infographics have become a popular
way to present facts and ideas in an efficient, yet effective way. Healthcare related
organizations, like as the CDC, regularly use infographics to assist
individuals with limited background understand health-related topics. This form
of education can be helpful for patient populations with low-literacy levels,
or to simplify a complex topic. Perform a web search to learn more about
infographics, view examples, and understand how they are utilized.

The goal of this Infographic is to address the three
learning outcomes you developed in the Patient Teaching Plan. Once the learner
has viewed your Infographic, all three of the learning objectives should have
been met.

For Example:

If a learning objective in the Patient Teaching Plan is: “At
the end of this education, the learner will be able to demonstrate the proper
way to wear a bike helmet,” then there should be content in your Infographic
