Good Evening Class and Professor

This has been a very challenging and informative semester! Wish everyone the best of luck on your final and future classes.

My answer is not changing a whole lot, I feel that when you care for a patient you are taking care of them as a whole. If they come into the hospital for one problem but we find out that they are not controlling their diabetes, were going to assist them in making better choices concerning their diabetes. We’re not going to skip that just because they are in there for gallstones. I still agree that nurses need to know the functional changes in the body caused by injury, disorder, or disease in order to do their jobs correctly (Braun & Anderson, 2017).

Selected Diabetes for my evidence-based paper because I think that disease is one that is affecting a lot of people, and something we will run into a lot as a nurse. This is a disease that affects all ages, it just depends on weather they have type 1 or type 2 diabetes. Older adults that have not taken care of their bodies and was aware of what they were eating are the individuals getting diagnosed with type 2. As nurses we will see this disease a lot in the hospitals and nursing homes and need to be vigilant to other things happening with a patient with diabetes. Someone that has diabetes and goes through a surgical procedure, you will be keeping a close eye on their sugars as surgery tends to make them fluctuate more.

These are the questions i need to anwer while still continuing the discussion with her
