What are the strategies for health promotion, risk reduction, and disease prevention for individuals and groups as an essential
Border Crossing
Overview Part of the assigned readings in your textbook this week concerns models for health and illness. Kearney-Nunnery (2012) stresses that ones view of health is
influenced by ones worldview and philosophical assumptions (p. 82). Essential VII of the BSN Essentials (American Association of Colleges of Nursing, 2008), Clinical
Prevention and Population Health, focuses on strategies for health promotion, risk reduction, and disease prevention for individuals and groups as an essential
component of professional nursing practice. Essential IX, Baccalaureate General Nursing Practice, purports that professional nursing care is provided with
understanding and respect for diversity for individuals, families, groups, communities, and populations across the continuum of healthcare environments.
Directions: 1.   Read the assumptions (numbers 1-7) for The Chronic Illness Trajectory Framework listed on page 72 of your textbook. 2.   Recall a client with a chronic illness for whom you have provided nursing
care. Retrospectively apply these assumptions to the clients experiences that you
were able to observe. Be sure you attempt to address all the assumptions but state in the narrative of the assignment if you were unable to address them all and why. 3.   Document this assignment in APA format and include in-text citations as indicated. Include a cover page and a reference list in APA format. Your submission
should not exceed two to three pages (2-3) pages excluding the title page and reference list. Remember this is scholarly writing and not a venue for your opinions.
Support your assertions with evidence-based, peer-reviewed nursing journals as indicated. References American Association of Colleges of Nursing. (2008).
