John is 55 years old. He is a full-time bricklayer who
immigrated from Scotland to Australia when he was 17. He lives with
his wife Lauen in a one storey house, and together they have 3
daughters (all have moved out of home). Five months ago
John underwent a right below knee amputation due to peripheral
vascular disease and has given up working. Prior to his operation,
he was smoking a pack of cigarettes per day (30/day), and now
reduced to 25/day. John now spends his time watching Netflix
or at his local soccer club (behind the bar, so he can drink with
his mates). He is drinking 10 – 14 standard drinks per day (he
favours an IPA). John has current referrals from the GP to a
physiotherapist, dietician, occupational therapist and has
appointments for all within the next four weeks.
Question
1, Chose a modifiable risk factor.
2. Concisely summarise the case study and define the chosen
modifiable risk factor behavior.
3. Outline how the risk factor, if left unchanged, may
impact on the disability outlined in the case study (i.e.
pathophysiology), and how further decline/loss of independence may
impact on the persons life, considering their personal
circumstances.
4. Identify a health behaviour theory that could be used as the
basis for an intervention to modify that behaviour (such as, but
not limited to: health belief model, theory of planned behaviour,
transtheoretical model, health promotion model). Concisely outline
the theory, and how you, as the RN, would encourage behaviour
change using this theory.
5. Outline and justify one (1) innovative and practical strategy
that can be implemented at home by the person in the case study to
encourage risk factor behaviour modification, why it is a relevant
strategy for the case study, and what the RN’s role will be within
this strategy.
