Patient Education Technology Guide to a Mobile Health Application PowerPoint
Purpose
The purpose of this assignment is to demonstrate the skills
of the professional nurse as an educator. You are to prepare a guide that will
serve as a handout to assist a specific patient that you identify. Your guide
or handout should help this patient find and evaluate a reliable mobile health,
or mHealth application (app) that is already developed. This may be related to
the patient's disease process or diagnosis, or may be an app that can help a
patient maintain or improve good health, and prevent illness.
You will develop the guide using Microsoft PowerPoint.
PowerPoint is a versatile application that lets you design slideshows and
handouts. For this assignment, you will be using PowerPoint to create a guide
or handout that you may print and give to patients and families. You will be
submitting this PowerPoint file for grading.

nurse's assessment of the patient's learning needs and readiness to learn. Be
specific.
Example:
Scenario for Ms. Ellis
Jane Doe (your name here)
Jennifer Ellis, a 62-year-old African American woman, has
been recently diagnosed with chronic kidney disease (CKD). She has been
prescribed several medications she must take every day.
The nephrologist has stressed the importance of leading a
healthy lifestyle to slow or stop the progression of CKD.
She is interested in ways in which she can better track her
health and make healthier choices.
She is a high school graduate and iPhone user, mostly to
send text messages to family and friends.
She is eager to learn how to use an app that can help her
manage her CKD.
Prepare the following slides as if you are presenting them
to the patient.
mHealth application slide (one to three slides): Identify a
developed and reliable mHealth app that could benefit the patient. Describe the
app, including the following.
Name
Purpose
Intended audience
Mobile device(s) upon which it will operate
Where to download or obtain it (include a working link if it
is to be downloaded from a website)
Any other information you believe would be pertinent to this
situation
Be sure to cite all sources you use.
Teaching slides (one to three slides): Prepare slides that
contain important points about the app that you want to teach to the patient,
such as how to use the app safely and effectively (including how to interpret
and act on the information that is provided).
Evaluation slide (one to three slides): Describe how you
would determine the success of the patient's use of this app. For example,
include ways to evaluate the effectiveness of the teaching plan that are a good
fit for the type of app or focus on specific ways that this app benefits the
patient's health and wellness.
References (last slide): List any references for sources
that were used or cited in the presentation.
Writing and design: There should be no spelling or
grammatical errors. Writing is concise and clear. Avoid words that the patient
