Create patient SMART goals and an evidence-based plan of care (patient education)

The purpose of this assignment is to synthesize and apply the knowledge you gained in class into a well-written research paper. For this assignment, you will conduct research and write a paper containing three parts:

1. Part I: Analyze diet
2. Part II: Evaluate how the patient’s diet affects:
   • The person’s health (anatomy)
   • The progression of the illness (pathophysiology)
   • Common medications associated with the disease
3. Part III: Create patient SMART goals and an evidence-based plan of care (patient education)

Begin by viewing the patient profiles and assignment details Choose one patient profile and use it to complete Parts I–III of the assignment.

In addition to the assignment specifics, your paper should:

• Be 4–5 pages, not including the title and reference pages.
• Source(s) should be integrated into the paragraphs. Use in-text citations pointing to evidence in the literature and supporting your ideas.
• Incorporate a minimum of two peer-reviewed sources into your paper.
• Use current APA format to style your paper and to cite your sources. Follow the list structure of the sample paper for the section on calculations. You can download a sample paper in the Worksheets, Forms, and Templates area at left.
• Include a title page and a reference page listing the sources you used. Be sure to plan enough time for proofreading and editing.

Signature Assignment DetailsPart I The DietInclude the following in Part I:

• Criterion 1: Determine if the person’s diet is deficient or in excess of CHO, PRO, and fatand explain why.

• Criterion 2: Explain in detail how the person’s diet meets or does not meet the RDA forfive or more micronutrients.Part II

Disease and NutritionInclude the following in Part II:

• Criterion 1: Explain how the person’s diet would affect the patient’s disease symptomsand progression. Provide a minimum of three examples of how specific foods affect thedisease pathophysiology. Provide examples of foods the person should avoid, and thosehe/she should consume.

• Criterion 2: Explain how food interacts with the medications this patient takes. What arethe nutrient-related side effects of the medication? What are the nutrient restrictions andrecommendations for the medications?o Example: Iron supplements cause constipation, so people areadvised to increase fiber foods; however, if a person is taking fiber with iron, the fiber will reduce the absorption of the iron thusdecreasing the effectiveness of the iron.

Part III Patient EducationInclude the following in part III:

• Criterion 1: Calculate the following for the patient: BMI, BMR, CHO, PRO, and fatneeds and any other relevant calculations that will help you develop a nutritional plan foryour patient.

• Criterion 2: Develop an evidence-based nutritional education plan with three SMARTgoals for your patient. Provide specific nursing strategies and examples for the patient,and consider all aspects of the patient’s lifestyle.
