Directions for Health Issues “Fact Sheet” – a (short) Research Paper

There are many topics of concern in health and health education today. Information expands and at incredible rate and it’s impossible to include all important issues in this one-unit course. For this assignment, follow the steps outlined below:

Step 1: Choose a topic – any current issue that relates to health. Here is a partial list of ideas

  • Sleep deprivation
  • Eating disorders (Obesity, or Anorexia, or Bulimia nervosa)
  • Drug use (Alcoholism in children ages 12-18 OR Tobacco use (smoking or chewing) in children ages 12 – 18)
  • Depression or social anxiety
  • Mental health disorders (schizophrenia, bipolar, OCD…)
  • Cancer, Zika, West Nile virus, hepatitis, STDs…

Step 2: Investigate your selected topic. Find at least 3 resources. While you may read a Wiki and use links attached to it, do NOT stop there and reference a Wiki in your final paper!

Step 3: Write a one-page “Fact Sheet” about your topic. This should be something that you could share at a school staff meeting OR with a concerned parent during a teacher/parent conference. You will have a second page, a “Work Cited” page, with the 3+ resources you used to write your “Fact Sheet” – listed in MLA format. If you don’t know how to use MLA, find an online resource for creating this such as “easybib.com.” All papers are to be typed in Times New Roman, size 12 font (just like this direction page) and single-spaced. Your report outline should look like this:

issues in Antipsychotic Treatment

ssues in Antipsychotic Treatment

Antipsychotic medications have low compliance due to both the medication itself (side effects) and the patient population. Many patients on antipsychotics are homeless, which confounds treatment. In addition, many self-medicate with drugs and alcohol, which further increases potential side effects and decreases compliance.

For this Discussion, consider issues involved with treating patients with psychotic disorders. Specifically, consider the following questions:

  • Is “the cure” worse than the disease?
  • Are antipsychotics effective?
  • Should antipsychotics be used, or should alternative treatments be explored?
  • Are the atypical (2nd generation) antipsychotics genuinely better or more effective than the 1st generation meds?

Consider other possible ways of treating schizophrenia without the aid of antipsychotics (especially 1st generation).

Submit by Day 4 an analysis of your thoughts on treating patients with schizophrenia and other psychoses. In your analysis, explain 1st and 2nd generation antipsychotics and the differences between them. Finally, evaluate the side effects of antipsychotics and how they can be managed or mitigated.

Health Communications

/in /by

in need of someone to finish a 4 page paper / assignment for me by thursday for my health communications class about patient to clinician communication

 

  1. This should be about a 5 page, double-spaced essay on one of the topics addressed in Clinician and Patient communication chapters. You will write about an interaction related to one of these areas. It could be your own experience, the experience of someone you know, or a media example.
    You will start by including some actual dialogue from the interaction. This should look like a transcript of what was actually said. Don’t describe what was said, write down the actual words in script form. Keep it relatively brief– less than one minute. Focus on a specific part of the interaction that is most useful to make your point.  In most circumstances, you will have to recreate the dialogue to the best of your or someone else’s recollection – just do the best you can do in trying to recreate it as close to the actual interaction as possible.
    After you include your example of dialogue, analyze this interaction by using THREE different concepts from the course. A concept can be any significant key point from the course textbook. For example, a topic might be social support and a concept might be a different type of support or a way to enact support. Concepts can be broad or more narrow depending on what in particular you want to focus. You must include discussion of at least 3 different course concepts. In discussing these concepts, YOU MUST define the concept, including an appropriate citation, and apply it to gain a better understanding the interaction in an appropriate manner.
    There are specific goals of this assignment. (1) The first is to provide you with an opportunity to show that you can effectively identify and describe these concepts and (2) apply them to understand a practical situation. 3) A third goal is to consider the manner by which the relationship among a caregiver and patient is influenced by particular forms of communication.
