Assessment - ✔️✔️John visits his general physician on Monday because he was feeling sick over the
weekend. When he is called back from the waiting room, the nurse on staff takes his temperature,
heart rate, and blood pressure. She then asks John a series of questions about how he's been feeling
lately. The nurse notes his responses when he says he's been having difficulty breathing and has
been feeling very tired. She also sees on John's medical history that he has had previous problems
with his cholesterol levels and blood pressure. John also has a blood sample taken during his
doctor's visit.
Diagnosis - ✔️✔️The nurse looks over John's symptoms and notes that his heart-rate is higher than
average and his blood pressure is elevated. She also considers that he's experienced fatigue and
shortness of breath before when his cholesterol levels were very high. The nurse determines that
John is experiencing Hyperlipidemia, also known as having high levels of fat within the blood. John's
blood tests confirm this hypothesis. The nurse is also concerned that John is at risk for heart disease.
Planning - ✔️✔️John returns on Tuesday for a follow-up visit. The nurse sits down with him in a
closed room and explains his cholesterol levels and high blood pressure. She suggests that John be
put on medication to help lower these numbers and recommends he exercise at least twice a week.
The nurse also tells John he should stay away from salty foods and eat less red meat. John agrees
with the nurse, and they setup a follow-up appointment two weeks later. The nurse reminds John to
call if there are any changes in his condition, or if he starts to feel worse.
Implementation - ✔️✔️John is prescribed the medication and takes it as recommended. One week
later, he has a day where he feels especially sick and calls the doctor's office. The nurse explains that
the medication could cause nausea as a side-effect and advises John to drink Ginger-Ale and avoid
any foods that generally upset his stomach. John continues taking the medication and goes to the
gym four times during the two-week period. Once the two weeks has passed, he returns to the
doctor's office for his follow-up appointment.
, Evaluation - ✔️✔️When John returns, the nurse asks him a series of questions about how he's been
feeling. John replies that he has been having an easier time breathing and feels significantly less
tired since exercising and taking the medication. The nurse marks "Patient's Condition Improved" on
his official medical records and congratulates John on his wellbeing. She then advises him to remain
on the medication for one more month and to continue his exercise.
Observers - ✔️✔️Learn best by watching; Would rather watch someone give an injection before
reading the procedure
Doers - ✔️✔️Learn best by moving, doing, experiencing, or experimenting; would rather play with a
syringe and inject a dummy before reading the procedure
Listeners - ✔️✔️Learn best by reading; would rather listen without worrying about taking notes
Example of a visual learner - ✔️✔️Visualize procedures in your mind's eye, rather then trying to
follow individual steps
Example of a kinesthetic learner - ✔️✔️When taking notes, use arrows to show relationships. Draw
boxes and circles around key concepts; use arrows when you make diagrams and maps
Example of a auditory learner - ✔️✔️Study with a friend, so you talk about the information. Tape
yourself as you read key information out loud, and then listen to the tapes
Novice - ✔️✔️Beginners who lack experience in specific situations
Advanced Beginners - ✔️✔️Those with marginally acceptable performance based on a foundation
of experience with real situations
Competent - ✔️✔️Those with 2 or 3 years of experience in similar situations
Proficient - ✔️✔️Those with broad experience that allows meaning to be understood in terms of
the big picture rather than isolated observations
