Learning Objectives

Learning Resources/Strategies
(To be filled in by end of Semester)

1. To serve those in the community with


illnesses by providing care in a loving,
compassionate manner.

Care-A-Van mentor
Text book
American Diabetes Association

2. Use evidence-based practice to enhance


the health of each patient (member of the
community)

Various sources can be used including the


experience from my mentor and self. I would
need to research the illnesses more common
treated within the community. I can use the
statistics of common diseases and treatments
that have been used based on evidence. I
would continue to use my text for the class in
order to learn more about the vulnerable
population that I will be caring for.

Signature:

I was able to provide the community with evidenced based


practice on how to manage diabetes. Many of the patients that
visit the Care-A-Van had difficulty managing diabetes at home. I
was able to provide them with resources on diabetes such as
healthy plate, blood glucose logs to monitor at home, references
on blood glucose ranges.

Outcomes:
(To be filled in by end of
Semester)
Understanding of disease
and education resources for
the community.

.
This student was able to provide a learning brochure for the
patients who had diabetes. Find attachment.

Education on diabetes was


reviewed with patients and
feedback was continuously
monitored with follow up calls
and visits.
