Ms Abimbola is a single parent with three female children, ages 14, 17 and 18. You are working on the respiratory ward and have been allocated to Ms Abimbola who has been admitted with exacerbation of COPD. Ms Abimbola presented to A&E via ambulance at 8AM after experiencing acute shortness of breath while preparing breakfast this morning. Based on the information provided in this case study, you are required to discuss your initial assessment of Ms Abimbola using Steps 1 and 2 the Levett-Jones’ (2018) Clinical Reasoning Cycle (CRC) before interpreting the information (Step 3 CRC) you have been given to identify 3 nursing care priorities (Step 4 CRC) for Ms Abimbola. The key components of Assessment 1 are to: • Discuss the key elements of Step 1 of the CRC and why it is important by: o developing and presenting a concept map of Ms Abimbola and her situation o Including evidence to support the content of your concept map • Discuss the key elements of Step 2 of the CRC and why it is important. • Discuss the pathophysiology of COPD and how Ms Abimbola's S&S reflect the underlying pathophysiology of the condition. • Interpret the information you have been given about her condition (Step 3 of the CRC) and identify three priority nursing issues you must address for Ms Abimbola (Step 4 of the CRC). Justify why they are priorities and support your discussion with evidence. • Discuss the potential impact of COPD on Ms Abimbola’s three most important activities of daily living. Link your discussion to the Roper-Logan & Tierney model. 3. Tips and Advice for Success Discussion: • There is much further depth required to meet the criteria on rubrics when you are being asked to critically discuss and critically analyse. This moves beyond merely 'describing' events or processes and requires you to make much deeper links that are supported by theory and evidence-based literature. o For example, you may include the pathophysiology of a disease process, but unless you can explain the link between the patient and their conditions, this does not demonstrate sufficient critical analysis or understanding • Your discussion needs to utilise high quality academic sources to support your arguments, and refrain from using consumer websites Slides: • Avoid text heavy slides which can detract from the meaning being presented on the slide. Stick to your main points (e.g., 3-5 points per slide), and verbally explore the points further. • Try to use diagrams, pictures/images or schematics which can break the slides up, as well as aid visual learners. However, these need to be relevant to the discussion • Ensure all slides and diagrams are referenced • Consider the use of an appropriate font type, colour and size to ensure ease of reading for the audience. • Proof read your work for grammatical errors, spelling mistakes or issues with punctuation. Remember, this is a piece of academic writing and needs to be at a high standard. Oral presentation: • Avoid simply reading from your notes/slides • Ensure your discussion flows logically, i.e. you should still introduce your presentation, the discuss your main arguments and then finish off with a conclusion • Be succinct but include everything that you need to include. Remember, you have a time limit and you do not get the option to deliver your information in another capacity • Practice, practice, practice, and only start recording when everything is ready to go and you are confident Please refer to the marking guide and rubric on page 15 of the NRSG265 unit outline for more information and guidance. If you have any questions about the assessment, please post it on "Assessment questions" discussion forum on your campus tile. 4. Case Study - Ms Aaliyah Abimbola https://elements.envato.com/stock-video/similar-to-KU96A9G/pg-3 Ms Aaliyah Abimbola Background information for the assignment. You are the RN on a morning shift on the respiratory ward of a large inner-city hospital. At 10:30 AM you receive a patient from the Emergency Department. I My name is Catriona and I am the A&E RN who has been caring for Ms Aaliyah Abimbola. Thank you so much for taking this patient so quickly. We’re so busy we haven’t time to do much for her apart from get her ready to bring up here. S Ms Abimbola is a 56-year-old woman with a past history of COPD who was admitted to A&E via ambulance at 8am today in acute respiratory distress. She became acutely short of breath this morning while making breakfast and called an ambulance. B I only got the chance to ask her a few admission questions before I was told to bring her up here. She was able to tell me: She saw her GP two weeks ago due to increasing shortness of breath and fatigue and he gave her ‘some breathing medication’ (inhalers). She has had to use these with increasing frequency since then. Ms Abimbola has been working at the flour mill 50 hours per week recently. This has made it tough to look after her three daughters because she’s a single parent. She has a medical past history of moderate sleep apnoea for which she uses CPAP to sleep overnight, Type 2 Diabetes and hypertension diagnosed 3 years ago. She has never smoked but has a long history of severe exposure to industrial dust. Her children are at school but the oldest one knows she’s in hospital.
