MSN 5550 Health Promotion: Prevention of Disease
Case Study Module 10

Instructions: Read the following case study and answer the reflective questions. Please provide
evidence-based rationales for your answers. APA, 7th ed. must be followed.

Deadline: Due by Saturday at 23:59 p.m.

CASE STUDY: Preschool Child: Ricky

Ricky, age 4 years, arrives in the clinic with his mother. Ricky lives with his mother and father,
who both work full-time, and his infant sister. Their extended family lives in a different state
more than 100 miles away. Both parents are of average height and in good health. Ricky’s
mother mentions that Ricky often expresses frustration, particularly in regard to food. Conflict
over food occurs every day. Mealtime is a battle to get him to eat, unless his mother feeds him.
Ricky’s baby sister seems to tolerate all baby foods but requires her mother to spoon-feed.
Ricky’s mother is quite frustrated and concerned that he will become malnourished.

Reflective Questions

1. What additional assessment information would you collect?

2. What questions would you ask, and how would you further explore this issue with the
mother?

3. In what ways does the distance of the extended family influence this family’s approach

to health promotion?

4. What factors would you consider to determine whether malnourishment is a factor in
this family?

The Health Belief Model (HBM) was developed by Hochbaum, Rosenstock, and Kegels, psychologists working in the US Public Health Services. HBM is based on perceived susceptibility, severity, benefits, and barriers. This Model can be used to predict health behaviors, for example, the intention to vaccinate or comply with medical interventions. I chose this model because it is important to know if your patients will engage with healthy behavior or not. If it is the latter, you can implement education and resources to help them make healthy choices.

During the COVID pandemic, misinformation had an enormous impact on people following precaution guidelines. Many people ignored recommendations due to their lack of accurate information. The HBM can raise awareness of the relationship between health, information, and the digital landscapes the public interacts with (Houlden et al., 2021).

I believe this model can address my topics because there are a lot of people who have been misinformed about healthy behaviors regarding mental health and childbirth. This model can help screen for those individuals and once identified, education and resources can be offered to encourage better heath decisions.

· I chose the Transtheoretical/Stages of Change Model. This model helps describe a patient's motivation and readiness to change a health-related behavior they may want to improve. It is described in a five-step process and evaluates the patient's behavioral change, the process of the changes, decision-making, and self-efficacy. Here are the five stages of this model: 

      1. Precontemplation: the patient is unaware of their need to change and most likely is unwilling to change. 

      2. Contemplation: this is when the patient begins to develop a desire to change and get better. 

      3. Preparation: personal plans begin of how to change. 

      4. Action: when the patient incorporates the new behavior into their life and/or routine. 

      5. Maintenance: the patient is consistent in changing and demonstrating that change, usually for six months or more. 

· I chose this model because I feel it gives the patient ways to improve and get better in a clear and precise way. It gives the patient their own choice to get better, which I feel is an excellent way to get a patient to change unhealthy behaviors. The patient needs to have that desire to change and get better first. It demonstrates more of an understanding of the actual cognitive and behavioral changes the patient will experience and go through. “Movement through these stages does not always occur in a linear manner, but may also be cyclical as many individuals must make several attempts at behavior change before their goals are realized” (Marcus & Simkin, 1994). It gives the patient time to work through each stage, even if it may not happen the first time, but it helps them feel more fulfilled. 

· This model can be used to address the Healthy People topic and objective I have chosen because, a lot of the time, the patient is unaware they need to change or unwilling to change. They don't know what steps they need to take to get better. Once given the education on how to get better, they need to desire to get better. This model can show the patient that they are getting better and gives them something to look at. It can also show healthcare professionals how the patient is improving and where they are at.
