Week 3 Assignment Grading Rubric: Due by Day 7 of Week 3

Power Point Presentation:  How Illness & Injuries Affect the Mind

Assignment:

For this assignment, develop a teaching plan for treating the potential psychological issues that may result from health crises in either the elderly or young children. Some considerations to make include:

o   In what ways does mental health need to be considered across the illness/ injury continuum?

o   How can nurses help both patients and caregivers work through mental blocks and depression associated with an illness or injury?

o   Although treatment will take place in a medical facility, how can non-medical treatments be used as a supplement?

Support your idea with a minimum of three references from the professional nursing literature in the assigned course readings and other references in the Walden Library. If they are relevant, you may use one or two professional Web sites in addition to the literature references.
