For this assignment, the learner will utilize a teaching process, similar to the nursing process and assessment of the metaparadigm concepts, to develop and implement a teaching plan for a selected client. The client must be greater than 15 years of age and may be a family member or a friend with a health need or a need to learn how to promote health.
Following the assessment, the learner will identify a client teaching need (for example, select a topic related to a positive health habit) in the form of a nursing diagnosis. Using this teaching need/diagnosis, the learner will follow the instructions below to develop a teaching plan for the client.
This plan will be in essay format, and is required to follow APA 6th edition format (title page, body of paper, reference list, and use of correct grammar). A reference list is to be submitted with the teaching plan. References may include the textbook, journal articles, or reputable websites. Use the web links and references at the end of the chapters in the textbook to guide the search for information. Follow the marking guide for a clear description of the APA expectations.
