Format and timing:You are required to follow the assessment guidelines to complete your project. The total word count is equivalent to 2000 words (+/- 10%)

1. Justification and epidemiology:

Identify the chosen disease. What is your rationale for choosing this disease? Provide an overview of epidemiological data for the chosen disease within the Australian context. WHY is this important to you? Provide a rationale for choosing to focus on this disease. Use this website

https://www.aihw.gov.au/reports-data

2. Pathophysiology and pharmacology (video): You are required to create and upload to the website a short video (6-7

minutes maximum length) of yourself teaching your target audience about the disease pathophysiology and related pharmacology. This video needs to include:

A comprehensive discussion of the pathophysiology of the chosen disease on a cellular level.

Identifications of one (1) drug commonly used to manage the chosen disease. You need to identify the drug class and describe the mechanism of action, indications and relevant considerations for the chosen drug, with reference to the patient. This needs to be linked back to the pathophysiological changes of the disease.

3. Impact of chronic disease:

Identify and discuss the impact of the chosen chronic disease on the patient.

4. Long-term management and health promotion strategies:

Identify long-term management strategies to promote health and independence for the patient with the chosen chronic disease. These should be linked to the identified factors impacting the patient in the previous section. Discuss how patients can reduce the risk of micro- and macrovascular complications.

Links to services in primary health care

Strategies and services available

Evidence to support their use

5. Nursing care plan for an acute exacerbation (infographic):

You are required to develop a nursing care plan that identifies two (2) acute issues, goals and interventions to manage the issues.

This is to be completed using the provided infographic template

You need to read into the possible acute exacerbations for the condition i.e. what can happen to my patient that would send them to hospital?

This is about knowing what can happen to your patients chronic condition if they need acute admission and intervention

6. Justification of nursing care:

You will provide your discussion and justification for the identified issues and interventions outlined in your nursing care plan.

This is your opportunity to explain and provide a rationale for your outlined issue, goal and interventions this part is the WHY of your care
