The Assignment: 2–3 Minute Video
A 7-year-old male patient comes into your office for a well exam. The child is 47.5 inches tall and weighs 65 lbs.
By Day 7 of Week 9
Use Kaltura to create a 2–3-minute video where you, as the pediatric nurse practitioner, explain the child’s growth chart to the parent. Use the appropriate growth chart (you can share your screen to refer to the chart) to explain the child’s height-for-age and weight-for-age percentiles as well as his BMI, including his percentile. Determine the diagnosis and explain to the parent whether the child is underweight, normal weight, overweight, or obese. Share a treatment plan and suggestions for future steps for the parent.
At the beginning of the video, show your ID and introduce/identify yourself by showing your face. Create a video posing as if you are speaking to the parent. You can print the growth chart or use screen sharing to go over it with the parent. Make sure that you record your face using the “camera” recording option in Kaltura.
