What health maintenance guidelines should be included for initial and follow up might be needed for follow-up assessments?

Order Instructions

To prepare:

• Review the Ewing (2004) questionnaire found in the Week 1 Learning Resources and consider the difficult questions you might have to ask when you take a patient’s complete health history.

• Review the screening tools found in the Learning Resources and consider how you might use an app or tool to assist in screening.

• Review the media programs related to a vaginal exam, pap test, and breast exam.

• Review the health history guide presented in Chapter 7 of the Schuiling & Likis (2022) text and consider how you would create your own script for building a complete health history. (Note: You will also find the Health History Form in Chapter 7)

• Include considerations for special populations such as LGBTQ+ individuals.

• What health maintenance guidelines should be included for initial and follow up might be needed for follow-up assessments? (i.e., bone density test, Gardasil vaccine, shingles, etc.)?

• Create your own script for building a health history and use the Health History Template for guidance (consider the type of language you would use to help your patient be more comfortable). As you create your script, consider the difficult questions you want to include in your script. There is no sample template to provide to you. You are the one to develop the script. Think of it as you are writing a movie and you need to write the script for the movie. What lines would you provide for the actor to utilize when sitting down with a patient to perform a COMPLETE Medical History which also entails those DIFFICULT GYN questions. You do not need to provide the answers to the questions however, if you find that beneficial, you may do so.
