Patient\'s General Health Been? - The Patient,
In this paper, we present an Individual clients health history examination on the basis of Gordon's Functional Health Pattern Assessment.
1. Perform a health history on an older adult. Students who do not work in an acute setting may "practice" these skills with a patient, community member, neighbor, friend, colleague, or loved one. (If an older individual is not available, you may choose a younger individual).
2. Complete a physical examination of the client using the "Individual Health History and Examination Assignment" resource. Use "Functional Health Pattern Assessment" as a guideline to assist you in completing the template.
3. Document findings of complete physical examination in Situation-Background-Assessment-Recommendation Format(SBAR) by using the SBAR format. Refer to the "SBAR Template," located on the National Nurse Leadership Council website at http://www.ihs.gov/medicalprograms/nnlc/documents/SBARTEMPLATE.pdf as a guide. Document the findings of the physical examination in a Word document.
4. Using the "Individual Health History and Examination Assignment," provide the physical examination findings summary with planned interventions for the client. Include any community services in the interventions.
