Module 3 – Case
HEALTH POLICIES AND VULNERABLE POPULATIONS
Case Assignment
You are a junior administrator in a small hospital. The clinical staff in the hospital have done a good job in ensuring that
patient care falls in line with the National Culturally and Linguistically Appropriate Services (CLAS) policy. However, in
a recent assessment of your facility, it was found that these competencies are lacking in the interactions of patients
with administrative services. Your supervisor has learned that you have taken this course and has asked you to
prepare a PowerPoint presentation to share with the various administrative departments such as billing, customer
service, scheduling, etc. Your presentation should include the following:
A thorough explanation of the CLAS Standards
Why culturally competent services are important throughout the hospital
Suggestions for how different departments can better serve the hospitals’ diverse clientele
A slide with resources for staff members
A slide with references
You must include speaker’s notes with your slides, which will elaborate on the content in each slide. Be sure to cite
your sources in your slides and speaker’s notes.
Assignment Expectations
1. Conduct additional research to gather sufficient information to justify/support your analysis.
2. Your presentation should be at least 8 slides, not including your cover slide and reference slide.

Details on reflection
Discuss what is happening on a cellular level with the disease process. Be careful to realize that patients have co-morbidities and you may need to discuss the other diseases impact on the pathophysiology and care of the patient. Three (3) resources after 2008 are required along with APA format.
Renal Failure
Patient Profile:
J.M. is a 37-year-old woman transferred to a large medical center from a small rural hospital for further evaluation of lower abdominal pain, nausea, vomiting, and progressive deterioration of urinary output.
Subjective Data:
-Long history of ETOH Abuse with a drinking binge two days ago
-Arthritis with heavy use of ibuprofen
-HTN for three years, treated with hydrochlorothiazide and a calcium channel blocker
-Borderline NIDDM for three years, does not want to take medications and has been trying
to lose weight and “watch her sugar intake.”
Objective Data:
B/P: 160/110 K: 6.3 mEq/L Urinary output: <15ml/hr Na: 149 mEq/L Lethargic Hgb A1C: 9.2%
Creatinine: 9.6 mg/dL BUN: 121 mg/dL
CRITICAL THINKING QUESTIONS…
1. Address how the various factors in her past medical history could have contributed to her present renal problem.
2. Is her acute renal failure likely to be prerenal, intrarenal, postrenal, or a combination? Why?
3. Discuss each of the laboratory values and how they reflect the pathophysiology that occurs in renal failure. What is the significance of her Hgb A1C level?
4. What are the specific priorities of treatment for J.M.?
5. Explain the types of dialysis available, their indications, and their advantages/ disadvantages. What type of dialysis will most likely be used for J.M?
6. After two weeks of intensive support and dialysis, J.M’s urinary output returns. Explain the diuretic phase of recovery in Acute Renal Failure, and what complications can occur.
7. Do you think she needs intervention for her diabetes? What guidelines did you consult? How would you start in treating a patient with newly diagnosed Type 2 diabetes? Which medication(s) might you want to start first? What patient education issues would you emphasize in the initial period?

Based on this information, your prior knowledge of this client (refer to medical card from the Collins-Kim family tree interactive), and your knowledge of the pathophysiology of myocardial infarction (MI), respond to the following prompts:
1.
1. Thoroughly explain the pathophysiology of myocardial infarction (MI). Use a
scholarly or
authoritative source to support your answer.
2. Examine each of the following three factors related to this disease process.
Support all three with a scholarly source.
cultural
financial
environmental implications
3. Identify 3-5 priority nursing interventions for the client while in the
emergency department.
4. Describe labs and diagnostic testing you would want to include in client’s plan of care and why. What are critical indicators?
Support with a scholarly source.
5. What members of the interdisciplinary team need to be included for holistic patient-centered care?
