Self-Management
Details: In this assignment, you will present a culturally sensitive self-management plan for a patient with a chronic disease.
Step 1 Choose a chronic disease that you frequently encounter in your nursing practice. Alternatively, pick a chronic disease that you would like to explore further.
Step 2 Select a culture that you often encounter in your practice or one that you would like to learn more about. For the purposes of this presentation, you may choose a culture based on religion; racial or ethnic group; cognitive, sensory, or physical disability; or sexual orientation or gender identity. Create a (minimum) 6 slide power-point presentation (PPP), not including the title page or reference page.
Imagine you were chosen to present this information in a seminar of your peers. You will present current, evidence-based research to your audience! Get their attention with color and pictures. Each slide must follow the 7×7 rule. No more than 7 lines and 7 words per line. You will lose your audience if you just throw up a white slide with lengthy paragraphs. Have fun with this project!
Under the PPP slide you will find three dots, if you pull it up, you will see a text box. Here is where you write “speaker notes” to yourself and to your instructor so I know what you will say to your audience. Type it as you would imagine saying it to your audience. “Hi, my name is XXX and I am so glad you all joined me today for this seminar!” Your speaker notes should be in paragraph format, not your slide. The audience should not do more reading than you do talking so keep that in mind. If they are still reading and you are done talking, you will need more in the speaker notes to keep from an uncomfortable silence.
Step 3 Format is a large chunk of this assignment. You will need to closely follow the PPP template in 7th. edition APA for formatting is provided below. You will have a title slide, an intro slide, a body of slides, a conclusion slide and a reference slide. Altogether you should have a minimum of 6 slides not counting the title or ref. slide. Your slides should have in-text citations as shown in the template as well as research scattered in your speaker notes. This is not a professional opinion, but rather an evidence-based self-management plan you have developed to improve the quality of care or outcomes of your chronic patient.
*Comics or color should be used throughout your slides to promote audience interest. You should not have all white slides. Also, the font needs to be bigger to be seen in the back of the room! Do not use 8-font, but 22 may be too large. Use your judgment and play around a bit. I need to see color and a bit of fun!
Address the following topics in your slides:
Title slide: Title of presentation, your name, class name, date, professor’s name.
Intro slide: Introduce your topic and your culture and greet your audience. This slide should make a strong first impression. It may be in paragraph form and does not need to follow the 7×7 rule.
Body slide: Use research to describe the chronic condition
Body slide: Describe the culture associated with the chronic condition and how they are connected.
Body slides: Identify 3-4 self-care needs for the patient with the chronic illness you chose. For example:
Hispanic patient with diabetes: Monitor blood glucose levels daily.
Body slides: Identify at least one measurable, patient-centered goal for each self-care need. For example:
Record blood sugar every day for 10 days.
Body slides: Present possible cultural barriers the healthcare professional should anticipate. For example:
The Hispanic patient does not: Personally speak/write in English.
The Hispanic patient does not: Have anyone in the home who can.
Body slides: Describe how you will evaluate whether the goals are in progress or were met.
Return demonstration: Capillary blood glucose level.
Patient education: Recording numbers on the worksheet.
Conclusion slide: Provide a summary of your presentation without introducing any more research and leave your audience in awe of your awesomeness and professionalism. Thank them for coming to your seminar! This slide may be in paragraph form and does not need to follow the 7×7 rule.
Reference slide: Cite your sources used in the presentation. All slides with research must use in-text citations and also needs citations scattered in the speaker notes below the slide. References and in-text citations must follow the 7th edition APA format as shown in the sample PPP and in the APA book required for this course.
