Health care professional/individual as client teaching and learning

Case 1
John is a retired 57-year-old man with a 5-year history of type 2 diabetes. He was diagnosed with
diabetes in 2010 but he had symptoms indicating hyperglycemia for 2 years before diagnosis. He
had fasting blood glucose records indicating values of 118–127 mg/dl, which were described to
him as indicative of “borderline diabetes.” His doctor has been encouraging to lose weight (at
least 10 kg. as he currently weights 100 kg and is 180 cm tall. Write learning objectives to guide your teaching about the importance of weight loss related to type 2 diabetes.
Based on this case study, a clear, measureable objective must be written for each of the 3
domains – cognitive, affective, and psychomotor. Assignment 2 must be submitted, marked and
returned to you prior to submitting assignment 3. Assignment 2 is foundational to assignment 3
so ensure you consider your tutor’s feedback.
Evaluation Criteria for Assignment 2 – Writing Learning Objectives
Assignment 2 should include the following:
Articulate 3 objectives – one for each domain cognitive, affective, and psychomotor. Be certain
each of the objectives you develop is at minimum:
learner-centered
discrete
written in clear, measurable terms
reflective of your assigned case study
reasonable for a 3 minute teaching session
Provide rationale including integration of theoretical knowledge, that is, evidence based practice
to support each objective.
Provide evidence of application of course concepts and references of external sources as
needed to support each learner centered objective.

APA format, maximum 4 pages excluding title and reference pages

Healthy People 2020 Strategies Assignment

The paper should be 2–3 pages, excluding title and references pages. Use current APA
formatting to style your paper and to cite your sources. Integrate your sources into the

Measles, Transmission Characteristics, and Risks to Children

Use the headings below when writing your APA case study essay (Except for “Introduction” paragraph which does not need a heading)

Introduction

Link and review  this website and its links (Links to an external site.):

  1. Introduce the Measles, its transmission characteristics, and its risks to children who contract this virus.
  2. Discuss the purpose of public health policies to vaccinate all eligible children with MMR vaccine. Synthesize “herd effect” and this policy.
  3. Discuss the purpose of the global surveillance system.
  4. From this introduction, explain whether vaccines are a primary, secondary or tertiary level of Public Health practice.

History of Somoa Measles outbreak:

  1. Introduce Somoa (Google search: where on earth, population size, socio-cultural traits, etc.)
  2. (Links to an external site.)View the following
  1. What are the latest total number of cases and deaths?
  2. Synthesize in detail two (2) events that contributed to the current Somoan measles outbreak? What happened? What impact did these events have on the Somoan measles vaccine coverage among the population?

Global Response and Public Health Interventions

  1. Link here and review the massive WHO statements on the regional effort: Dec 16;(Links to an external site.) 
  2. Link here and review the  CDC Somoa Response (Links to an external site.)

      1. state and define the intervention, (you may directly quote the PH intervention definitions from the above #4 link; be sure to cite correctly).
      2. State the population-of-interest.
      3. it’s level of intervention (systems, community, individual-family). Some interventions may be interpreted at two levels.
