- Written Assignment-This week you will complete a genetic/genomic nursing assessment using the information found in the text on page 224 Box 8-7 in the 6th edition OR page 198, Box 7-7 in the 5th edition. You will not create a family tree; instead, write out the assignment in APA format and address the items in box 8-7 or 7-7. The paper will cover:
- Identify 3 generations of one family (male/female, age, role in the family such as son/daughter, father/mother, grandmother/grandfather). If both individuals of each generation are not covered, points will be deducted. For this week’s genetic family history assignment, you will need to discuss your own family or a friend’s family to complete the assignment.
- Brief health history of each family member. Focus on any/all genetic diseases that may be present or those for which family members may be at risk
- Complete reproduction history for relevant above identified family members
- Describe ethnic backgrounds of family members
- Identify any growth and development variations
- State to what extent each family member understands the causes of their health problems
- Relate what questions family members may have about potential genetic risks
- Describe nursing intervention strategies the family health nurse should relate to your selected family based on the obtained assessment
- Must include 4 references, 2 must be from course materials and 2 from peer reviewed references. As we are aware in week 2 there are multiple required/recommended references that are out of the date range, you may use these references without point deduction as they are course materials
- Reference must be no older than 5 years (2014-2020—due to only being January) unless course material.
- Suggested headings have been added to guide you in structuring of your work
- 4 point per day deduction for late assignments
