Yvonne is a 13-year-old eighth grader who is a new student in an urban middle school. She recently moved into the area with her mother and her three siblings. The family moved to be nearer to Yvonne s grandparents after the breakup of her parents relationship. Yvonne is tall for her age and is bothered by the looks and sexual comments about her breasts from boys in her school. She has made few friends at the new school, because she needs to spend most of her free time taking care of her younger siblings while her mother waits tables to support the family. Her eighth grade academic work is a little more advanced than what she is usedto. She is having a hard time keeping up, particularly in science, which is her first period course. The teacher moves very fast, despite the fact that most of the students look glassy-eyed from too little sleep. What does this example illustrate about the ease of the adolescent transition for early-maturing girls like Yvonne?

2. Low cholesterol
3. Pre-diabetic (based of glucose lab)
4. Has no food allergies
5. His wife does the majority of cooking and shopping (she started to use corn oil to cook with and not fry foods as often)
6. Household 5 (his daughter and two grandkids live with him and Mrs. Garcia)
I suggested the following:
1. Mr. Garcia should consume more fiber (soluble and insoluble)
2. Mr. Garcia was interested in taking fish oil supplements (I was thinking added more omega-3 to his diet)
3. Mr. Garcia is very dehydrated (nursing assessment: skin turgor = TENT)
So now that Mr. Garcia left and received education and made diet changes, we are now seeing him and his wife 4 weeks later as an outpatient.
Carmen worked as an education coordinator for a nation-wide health care consulting organization. She had a horribly busy schedule, started work before 8:00 a.m. every day, and rarely finished working until at least 7:00 p.m. every evening. Her husband, Alan, worked at a local factory, and it was difficult for him to get time away as well. Their son was five years old and starting kindergarten the next month.
One of the requirements for kindergarten was documentation of immunization records. Carmen, who provided education on PHIPA-related issues and assisted facilities with form design as part of her job, called Dr. Stallone, her son’s paediatrician’s office. Carmen asked Jessica, who answered the phone at Dr. Stallone’s office, if she would be able to fax a release of information form to the paediatrician’s office and have the office fax the information to her because she was unable to get there during office hours. Jessica responded by saying, “I’m sorry, honey, but medical records…
