CASE STUDY
Nellie Jackson is a 50 year-old Aboriginal woman who is recently widowed. She has three children, two boys who have lived up north for the last five years and a daughter and granddaughter who live with her in a small house about ten minutes out of town.
Recently she developed a left leg DVT, was hospitalize and started on the anticoagulant Warfarin. She visits her General Practice doctor (GP) twice weekly and despite a twenty minute walk to the closest bus stop, has not missed any appointments. Her International Normalized Ratio (INR) continues to be high despite the GP decreasing the dose; she is aware that regular visits will continue until her INR is within the therapeutic range.
Assessment 2: Education plan-health promotion
Word Length: 1000
Students are required to comply with word and time limits. You are not expected to achieve exactly the required length, and a 10% leeway on either side is acceptable. The marker will not mark beyond the 10%. Only your work to that point will be marked against the assessment criteria
Task
In this assessment you will explain the role of the nurse in providing health education then develop an evidence-based and culturally informed health education plan for Nellie Jackson who is one of your clients.

- program goal (a general statement about long term program outcomes)
- objective/s (specific statements that address how each goal of the program will be achieved)
- intervention/s (actions)
