There have to be some corrections on the concept map. I’ve attached a file with the feedback from the instructor. Feel free to create a completely new nursing diagnosis (3 part according to NANDA). He is some information about the patient from my concept map.

Pt: Kevin Smith, 66 year old Caucasian male. Retired, lives at home with wife, grown children and grandchildren all live close by. Has a stable income with pension, insurance offers good coverage.
Allergies: seasonal allergic rhinitis, takes claratin OTC when flares
Diagnosis: Hyperlipidemia, diagnosed at age 55. Take atorvastatin 20mg PO daily and also adjusted his diet (lower fat, lower salt, less processed foods and more fruits and vegetables, gave up pop and drinks more water). Was overweight/near obese but has lost weight since diet/lifestyle changes. When he worked, he had a desk job and would walk at lunch but no other exercise. His numbers were high last year so the doctor added fenofibrate 200mg PO daily.
When diagnosed, he was at the doctor for a routine physical and blood work and was told his levels were high and started on medication.
He had a check up over the summer and reports that his cholesterol levels were stable but doesn’t have the results because he doesn’t know how to work the online chart from his doctor.

Practice Interview
This assignment gives you the opportunity to practice interviewing someone in preparation for your community partner interview. It also gives you the opportunity to continue the development of your ability to communicate with empathy.
Interview Topic: Patient perspective when receiving medical care.
You will interview someone who has been a medical patient to find out what their experience was like and what factors influenced the experience.
This means anyone who has been to a doctor is a potential person for you to interview for this assignment. You can interview a classmate, a colleague, a parent, spouse, older child, family member, etc. The person does not need to be a current patient but it would be preferable if they have been a patient in some capacity in the recent past so they can recall the experience clearly.
If you choose to interview a family member, the interview still needs to be formal in its setup. So do not ask your questions while eating dinner together. Set aside a time to sit together and go through the interview process. Practicing the process of the interview is slightly more important for this assignment than the content you gather.
The first step to prepare for the interview is by defining your goal for the interview and determining your focus. Use those parameters to compose your questions for the interview.
As you conduct your interview, notice:
The comfort level of your interviewee?
Did they seem nervous? What did you do to make them comfortable speaking with you?
Was the length of the interview appropriate?
The clarity of your questions
Did your interviewee understand what you were asking?
Did your interviewee answer with the information you hoped to gather from the question?
How did you decide if followup questions were needed?
Your ability to focus on listening to your interviewee’s responses
Were you actively listening? How did you communicate that active listening to your interviewee?
Your ability to analyze your interviewee’s responses after the interview
How did you record their answers?
After you finish the interview download and complete the Practice Interview Reflection Sheet Download Practice Interview Reflection Sheet(Word Document). Submit your completed document as a Word document to this assignment. ( see attachment to complet the reflection sheet)
You will share a more detailed summary of your reflection on the interview process in your process journal for this week, Process Journal: Week 2

Correlation is the process of establishing a relationship between two or more factors. Correlation is an important concept that can be misused. One misuse is saying that factor A is caused by factor B just because correlation is found. Cause cannot be implied simply from correlation. Find two examples in scholarly articles within the last 10 years that use correlation analysis. One of the articles must use correlation to imply causation correctly and one article should not have justification to imply cause.
Summarize both articles in at least 500 words.
Explain why cause was appropriate in one article and not in the other.
What would be needed for the second article to justify a statement of cause?
