This project is an opportunity to role play a difficult discussion with a teen or a childs parents. If there was ever a medical discussion that you had, that you wish had gone differently it might be nice to recreate and try out other communication techniques. If might also be the first time youve had to discuss matters of faith and/or religion with in reguard to holistic care. The video should be 7-10 minutes and have the following benchmarks:
1. The student as a medical provider and a patient or parent/s of a young patient.
2. Open the write up with information about why this is a difficult discussion. You are diagnosing a sexually transmitted disease, Please feel free to role play a difficult discussion from your past, as long as the discussion can be applied to a family with young children or a teen.
3. In the video there should be evidence of your use of a spiritual assessment tool. A guide to a few common spiritual assessment tools.
4. You should offer the teen or the parents of young children a medical treatment or intervention. The intent of this step is to demonstrate that you know the medications, treatments and interventions of various medical problems.
5. The teen or parents MUST refuse your standard treatments.
6. The final step is to demonstrate or make a plan for spiritually compassionate care appropriate to the teen/family’s needs.
When you post your video, please include a References page in the Canvas text box that has at least 3 peer reviewed sources on your spiritual assessment, medical treatment plan (that was rejected) and your techniques for spiritual care.
