Problem: Review the YouTube videos on the Dahl family's Addison's disease journey. After viewing the videos, complete a journal entry answering these questions.
- Assess the Dahl Family
- Assess health literacy in the Dahl Family. Where do they gain their information, how knowledgeable are they regarding Gabby's condition-especially at diagnosis as compared to later in the process?
- Assess Gabby's patient activation; how is this influenced by her family?
- Assess the Dahl family's social determinants of health (SDOH); in what areas might they benefit from intervention, if any? What interventions does the Dahl family talk about regarding the SDOH? What interventions could you, as an NP, incorporate with this family?
- Think about your group genetics assignment
- How could looking at health literacy, patient activation, and SDOH affect your perspective on treating families dealing with a chronic illness or genetic condition?
