Minor Injuries and illness
Appraisal of Specific Patient Groups
Learning Outcome – Review the different needs of 3 specific patient groups – children, older people and people with a mental health disorder, who present with minor illness/injury
Requires you to critically appraise the different needs of specific patient groups, including children, older people and people with a mental health disorder who present with minor illness / injury. In this section you need to demonstrate how patient assessment and management is adapted to accommodate the needs of these specific patient groups. You may wish to within this section specifically focus on how assessment and triage may be adapted. It is paramount that the work is related to the patient presenting with a minor illness or injury, throughout. We recommend that you address each group individually, as this will help focus the writing. All 3 patient groups should be addressed to meet the learning outcome.
For this learning outcome please write a short summary of your learning achievements and provide an action plan for your continued and future learning needs. Start with where you felt your level of knowledge of minor illness and injury was before you studied this module, continuing to highlight how you have developed your knowledge, outlining how this new learning can be applied in your practice, supported by good quality evidence from the literature. You may want to use a reflective model template for this. Examples of these are Gibbs Reflective cycle (1988), or Rolf’s (2001) What? So what? Now what? These are not mandatory and a paragraph discussing your practice and implementation of these skills will also be acceptable. As this section is discussing your personal practice, the use of the first person writing in this section is appropriate, even if you have used the third person in the rest of the assignment.
Discuss your views on arranged marriage and choice marriage.
Directions:Choose two of the following questions to discuss. Make certain to support your opinion using concepts and vocabulary from the textbook and weekly course concept lessons. You will need to post at least 2 full well-written paragraphs. QuestionsDiscuss your views on arranged marriage and choice marriage. Discuss the costs and benefits of each. Finally, to what extent are marriages informally arranged?Discuss your views on using the Internet to find a mate. What are the advantages and disadvantages? Additionally, how has technology affected the composition of the family? Has the family changed because of technology? Explain? Discuss the functions of the family. How are these functions connected to our culture? Culturally, discuss traditional roles of men and women in families? Are these roles changing? How? If one is “married without children,” do functions still apply? Finally, what are the implications of child-free and childless?Discuss the conflict perspective of family. Do men have more power than women? Culturally, why do women take-on the last name of men? Does this behavior deny women of their individuality? What does an egalitarian family look like?
Hazard Mitigation Analysis

The analysis must also include the following components:
Executive Summary
Methodology of analysis
Types and descriptions of hazards
Recommended preparedness strategies relative to hazards
Recommended at least 5 hazard mitigation strategies
Implementation/evaluation plan
Identifying and treating genetic diseases
Meiosis, the kind of cell reproduction in which parent cells pass genetic traits to their offspring, is typically an accurate process. Mistakes in the process, known as mutations, are rare, and not all mutations lead to changes in an organism. Some mutations, however, have significant negative effects. Genetic mutations during meiosis have produced human diseases such as hemophilia, sickle cell anemia, and cystic fibrosis. Since abnormalities in the genome cause these diseases, any true cure must address a person’s genetic makeup. Amazingly, scientists are exploring ways to change human genes to treat these diseases. For this week’s Discussion, you conduct research to identify and learn about a genetic disease that interests you. You explore current treatments for the disease, as well as treatments under development. Then, you recommend a promising treatment based on your analysis. The genetic disease I chose is Sickle-cell anemia Post a recommendation (at least two paragraphs long) for a promising treatment of the genetic disease you selected. The recommendation should include:A brief description of the genetic disease and how it occursAn explanation of the treatment you selected
Reasons why this treatment is particularly promising
