10th week in a row

For a healthy diet visit Hot Doug's in Chicago.
Even babies buckle up. (The FAA in conjunction with the FDA does not recommend children get buckled like this.)

so this week i have decided to blog about my service learning project in another class, i figure it might work because it is all service learning.

I went to the Seville senior center for my other service-learning project. And for the first part of it we did a health screening.WHAT? One of the most important things that I learned at the senior center is that the people that are there really rely on the service that they offer. I’m talking about the fact that that they go to the art museums or the mall, just getting them out and about. In talking to the people during the health screening that is something that they look forward to everyday, and I realized that it is really important to have this in there life.

SO WHAT? It was important for me as a student nurse to go here and do these health screening. I learned that a lot of older people know little about so of the most common health risks. It is important because to me I will have to teach these older people about their risks that high blood pressure and high blood sugar have.

NOW WHAT? In the future as a nurse I will need to reflect on this because I will have to address the knowledge deficit that the older adults my have. And just like I did at this senior center I will have to assess there knowledge about the specific finding to make sure that know everything that they need to about the diagnosis.
