Assignment: Annotated Bibliography-Patient Recommendations/Plan
Your paper will require you to develop a action plan for your client avatar Diabetic Patient (profile attached). The action plan will require you to take into account the client's health risk(s), diagnosis, psychosocial factors, and confidence in his/her ability to change, in order to outline the specific steps you would implement to promote behavior change.
The plan will include five parts:
• Goals: Select one behavior that your client would like to change, and list five S.M.A.R.T. goals that are specific, measurable, attainable, realistic, and trackable for behavior change.
• Barriers: Assess psychosocial factors that may influence the client's health, wellness, and treatment.
• Strategies to Address Barriers: Apply three counseling techniques and three motivational interviewing strategies to help the client overcome barriers to change. At least one of the counseling techniques must be implemented in a group setting.
• External Support: Discuss how you would incorporate the client's family, spouse, or caregivers into the action plan. Next, identify three individuals to be a part of your client's care team.
• Follow-up Plan: Describe how you will follow-up with the client to sustain healthy behaviors between visits and after termination. Recommend two social and/or environmental resources (e.g., peer-led groups, patient education classes) for ongoing support.
