Developing a Care Plan

There are two parts to the comprehensive nursing care plan assignment. In Week 5 you are required to submit a draft of your care plan. In Week 6 you will submit your final nursing care plan based on feedback from your instructor and your continued work.

In a Microsoft Word document of 4-5 pages formatted in APA style, begin to develop a comprehensive care plan for the aggregate based on the health risks faced by the aggregate that you identified in the risk assessment. 

In your paper, address the following:

• Propose two (2) priority-nursing diagnoses based on the major health risks identified during the risk assessment for the aggregate
  • Include strategies to address the nursing diagnoses and identified risks of aggregate.
  • Support your strategies with at least two journal articles.
• Develop a disaster management plan with the following components:
  • List of disasters that might affect your aggregate (take into consideration the geographical location of the aggregate, past history, etc.).
  • Strategies for handling at least two disasters from the list.
  • Recommendations for a disaster supplies kit.
