Family Assessment You would start here with an introduction and thesis statement. This is where you will briefly talk about what the reader should expect in this paper and what point you are hoping to prove. One or two paragraphs at most should be included here.
Summary of the Findings for Each Functional Health Pattern
Brief summarization of the findings for each functional health pattern for your family is supported by accurate details along with thoughtful reflection. You could use subheading for each health pattern if you have enough to say about each section. Health Perception and Health Management
This is where you will provide you assessment of the health perception and health management. If you need to refer to your list of questions, you can cite the appendix at the end of the paper. You must have at least three sentences here to have a paragraph. The subheading above would be used if there are several sections within the topic labeled in a heading. The subheading is flush left and bolded, with each word of four letters or more capitalized.
Nutrition Metabolic Pattern
This is where you will provide you assessment of the health perception and health management. You must have at least three sentences here to have a paragraph. APA dictates that you should avoid having only one subsection heading and subsection within a section. In other words, use at least two subheadings under a main heading, or do not use any at all.
Pattern of Elimination
You will continue with each pattern in its own sub-heading. You could possibly combine a few patterns is there isn’t a lot to say about each one. For example, one heading might be relationship and reproductive pattern. When you have gone through all of the patterns, you could then go back to a regular heading.
Wellness and Family Nursing Diagnoses Identification of two or more wellness and family nursing diagnoses that you identified about your family based on your assessment are supported by accurate details along with thoughtful reflection. Remember to pick a WELLNESS diagnosis, NOT an illness related diagnosis. They are labeled on the resource provided on the assignment page.
Conclusion
Summarize the main points of your paper that support your leading thesis statement in one or two paragraphs at most.
