Details The purpose of this essay is to examine the role of the family and the nurse in the development and maintenance of child and adolescent health through health screening and promotion, integrating evidence based practice. This essay will provide the opportunity to reflect on personal values and beliefs and how they impact on person centred care provided to child, adolescents and families in relation to the chosen issue.
Select ONE health issue facing families today, suggested issues include:
Newborn
– Vaccination
– Breastfeeding
Paediatric
– Nutrition
– Screentime
Adolescent
– Alcohol use
– Drug use
– Smoking
– Bullying
An introduction and conclusion are required (150 words EACH).
ATTENTION. – Do NOT write part 1 or 2 in first person, this will be classified as poor academic practice.
Part 1
Outline and examine the impact of family and culture on the chosen issue, these could be positive and negative influences (400 words).
Part 2
Outline and examine the impact of the nurse on the issue (including health promotion, multidisciplinary collaboration, and relevant screening tools) (400 words).
Part 3
Identify own personal values and beliefs and comment on how these could impact person centred care in relation to chosen topic (400 words). This third section is largely a reflection. I would assume that third and first person would be acceptable here. In terms of references, if you use material you need to reference. Given that this is still a piece of academic writing it would be recommended that you still do some reading around how values and beliefs influence practice.
