Abnormal brain development or damage at an early age can lead to neuro-developmental disorders

Abnormal brain development or damage at an early age can lead to neuro-developmental disorders. Within this group of disorders, some are resolvable with appropriate and timely interventions, either pharmacological or non-pharmacological, while other disorders are chronic and need to be managed throughout the lifespan.

For this Assignment, you will develop a study guide for an assigned disorder and share it with your colleagues. In sum, these study guides will be a powerful tool in preparing for your certification exam.

To Prepare

• Your Instructor will assign you to a specific neurodevelopmental disorder from the DSM-5-TR.

• Research your assigned disorder using the Walden Library. Then, develop an organizational scheme for the important information about the disorder.

The Assignment

Create a study guide for your assigned disorder. Your study guide should be in the form of an outline with references, and you should incorporate visual elements such as concept maps, charts, diagrams, images, color coding, mnemonics, and/or flashcards. Be creative! It should not be in the format of an APA paper. Your guide should be informed by the DSM-5-TR but also supported by at least three other scholarly resources.

Areas of importance you should address, but are not limited to, are:

• Signs and symptoms according to the DSM-5-TR

• Differential diagnoses

• Incidence

• Development and course

• Prognosis

• Considerations related to culture, gender, age

• Pharmacological treatments, including any side effects

• Nonpharmacological treatments

• Diagnostics and labs

• Comorbidities

• Legal and ethical considerations

• Pertinent patient education considerations

Assigned: Global Developmental Delay

Rubric

Are there modifiable factors, such as health behaviors that lend themselves to better prevention efforts?

 Identify a current health issue of interest to you e.g diabetes, HIV/AIDS, heart disease etc. On the basis of current epidemiologic evidence, explain the factors that have contributed to the following: the observed trend in mortality rates for this disease, the changes in survival; the changes in incidence. A key concept in epidemiology is that of the levels of prevention.  As a community health nurse, describe primary, secondary, and tertiary prevention interventions related to this health issue.  Are there modifiable factors, such as health behaviors that lend themselves to better prevention efforts?  whatsapp +1(815) 406 9011

 Imagine you are a member of a newly developed diversity team in your workplace. Your team is considering how individual identity contributes to cultural diversity.

(CLINICIANS-END USERS; PATIENTS AND VENDORS)

Before any health information system can be successfully implemented, there must be a team of experts who understand the vision and mission of both the health care organization and its stakeholders. Strategic health care leaders are positioned to propose system upgrades and/or implementations that can withstand inevitable organizational changes. Health information systems’ leaders understand that data is the overall management of the availability, usability, integrity and security of the data. Choose at least three health information systems’ leaders and/or stakeholders, and define their role in the implementation of health information systems (CLINICIANS-END USERS; PATIENTS AND VENDORS). All the following items must be addressed in your paper: • Compare and contrast the limitations and opportunities in enterprise-wide data. Defend your technology infrastructure’s ability to support organizational leadership and end-user needs. • Explain the economic impact of your proposed system acqu...
