There are 2 short story reads. You are to read both and then choose one you would like to fill in the care plan template form. That is the only thing you have to do and nothing additional.
Identify your role as a health care professional in supporting Abby’s or Shanti’s dying rituals, and in creating strategies for displaying respect while still providing quality care. Identify communication strategies necessary in caring for your select person. Integrate your strategies as you develop a care plan describing how you would approach the situation and care for the patient. Review the “Care Plan” template prior to beginning.
Include the following in your care plan:
- Communication: family and patient
- Treatment options that align with the specific culture
- Education: family and patient
- Family roles in the process
- Spiritual beliefs
- Barriers
- Cultural responses
- Any additional components that you feel would need to be addressed (from your perspective as a health care professional)
