Health History Assessment and Physical Assessment 2
Health History Assessment and Physical Assessment
I conducted a health assessment on a 70 year’s old male patient
from California who was

suffering from hypertension. The patient is currently taking
diuretics medication which cause
increase urination. The medication also causes his sodium and
fluids levels to drop thus lowering
patient’s blood pressure so it’s imperative to balance and
monitor vital sign. The patient stated
that he was moderately satisfied with the care received in the
facility. The patient is a smoker and
stated his concern of experiencing vision issues and heart
failure, which prompted immediate
care for this patient.
Before being admitted to the hospital, patient stated that he was
experiencing chest pain
which was not ending nor was it increasing in exertion. He did
not experience nausea, vomiting,
dizziness or unconsciousness. He took some pain killers with no
relief but managed to sleep in
the morning. After beginning his daily activities, the pain
increased and was then rushed to the
hospital. He underwent some test that clarified that he was
suffering from hypertension. When I
reviewed patient past medical records, it showed that he has
condition at early age and minor

surgery. I reviewed the patient's cardiovascular, eyes, nose,
throat, respiratory system, and his
immune system. Patient immunization was also put into
consideration when I reviewed his past
medical record as this will be helpful planning for his care.
Thirty years ago, the patient developed a diffuse rash after he
was injected with penicillin
which he was allergic to, but it was not known. Some of his past
health operations includes:
chest pains in 1990 and minor surgery on his left arm. He has a
medical case of pneumonia at an
early age, which did not take long to heal. The patient was
raised by his stepmother since his
mother passed away 72 years ago from heart failure. His father
passed on 68 years ago after
committing suicide in his house. His wife died 10 years ago
after struggling with tuberculosis for

what condition?
a long period of time. He has six children; two are deceased
after both suffered from

hypertension. He has 20 grandchildren and 10 great-
grandchildren. His family have history of
hypertension but no known history of tuberculosis.
The patient’s physical assessment findings were that he had an
elevated blood pressure of
125/80 which shows that it was high, but it is controllable. I
also found that he had a unique heart
sound which was as a result of an enlarged heart. The patient
had a swollen neck vein which was
probably caused by heart failure. He also had some
abnormalities in the blood vessels behind the
eyes. He has no clinical cardiovascular disease or signs of
hypertension-related target- organ
damage. The patient had narrowed kidney arteries and endocrine
disorders. The patient had no
respiratory problems, but his lungs sounded as if it was
congested. His peripheral pulses were
present and strong, and his thorax was under the normal shape.
Through health teaching topics, students can acquire
knowledge, skills and positive
attitude about health. From these teaching, students can learn
about physical, mental emotional
and mental health. This enables students to enhance and

maintain their health in preventing
diseases and minimize risky habits (Don, 2000). Through this
teaching, student acquire positive
changes and behaviors that reduce the risk of the student being
around alcohol, tobacco, and
other drugs. Through this teaching, the community becomes
aware of how to prevent chronic
diseases as well as how to maintain healthy nutrition and
prevent obesity (Vadurro, 2018).
Through the finding in the scholarly articles, there has been
great awareness about chronic
diseases and how they can be prevented and managed by
integrating such as nutrition and how to
deal with stress. The findings also advance the understanding of
how the mind and body
strategies impact health and well-being. The findings mainly
focus on the treatment of diseases,

this has helped in finding treatment for diseases and the
productiveness of pharmacologic
strategies in treating and controlling the illnesses (Green LW.
Et al. 1980)
The interrelationship of psychological developmental, cultural
and psychosocial
consideration impacts a person's experiences and definition of
health and illnesses. This
relationship guides the day to day lifestyle of people. It
determines if people in given community
access to health care and their responses to disease pain and
disabilities. Through the integration
of individual strength and collaborative resources, the proposed
health teaching will be well
appreciated in the community since through these strengths they

will improve the population-
level health outcome by supporting the proposed health teaching
which may lead to a sustainable
environmental transition in different parts of the community
which are associated with health.
The patient was not willing to share the information with me as
he considered it as a
distraction. To comfort patient, I began by explaining to him the
importance of the interview. I
explained to him the information was required for learning
purpose which helped in convincing
him that the interview was not aimed at interfering with his
privacy since the information will
not be shared by any third party. I explained to him the benefits
of speaking about his health
conditions and with the information shared, it will be easier to
come up with a better medical
plan that will help a medical professional care for his needs. I
explained to him that if he shared
his health information, I will be able to explain to him the
living habits that he was expected to
adapt based on his condition. When conducting my next
physical examination, I will ensure that
I implement the four techniques which involves inspections,

palpation, percussion, and
auscultation.

information you needed?

Did he consent to the assessment? I am unclear on this.

REQUIRED UNIFORM ASSIGNMENT GUIDELINES
THE HEALTH HISTORY AND PHYSICAL EXAMINATION
PURPOSE
As you learned in NR302, before any nursing plan of care or
intervention can be implemented or
evaluated, the nurse conducts an assessment, collecting
subjective and objective data from an
individual. The data collected are used to determine areas of
need or problems to be addressed by the
nursing care plan. This assignment will focus on collecting both
subjective and objective data,
synthesizing the data, and identifying health and wellness
priorities for the person. The purpose of the
assignment is twofold.
• To recognize the interrelationships of subjective data
(physiological, psychosocial, cultural and
spiritual values, and developmental) and objective data
(physical examination findings) in
planning and implementing nursing care

• To reflect on the interactive process that takes place between
the nurse and an individual while
conducting a health assessment and a physical examination
COURSE OUTCOMES
CO1: CO1. Explain expected client behaviors while
differentiating between normal findings,
variations and abnormalities. (PO1)
CO 2: Utilize prior knowledge of theories and principles of
nursing and related disciplines to
integrate clinical judgment in professional decision-making and

conducting the health history for reference when creating the
assignment, particularly the reflection section.
2. Objective Data—Physical Exam Components to Be Included
ou will conduct a series of
physical exams that includes the
them to reference as you write
system exam. Remember,
assessment of the integumentary system is an integral part of
the physical exam and should be
o HEENT (head, eyes, ears, nose, and throat)
o Neck (including thyroid and lymph chains)
o Respiratory system
o Cardiovascular system

o Neurological system
o Gastrointestinal system
o Musculoskeletal system
o peripheral vascular system
***REMEMBER: Make notes of the physical examination
findings, ensuring that you have addressed all of the
components listed on the Return Demonstration Checklist.
Students are also encouraged to take notes
about their experiences while conducting the physical
examination for reference when creating the
assignment, particularly the reflection section.
Needs Assessment (20 points)
1. Based on the health history and physical examination
findings, determine at least two health
education needs for the individual. Remember, you may identify
an educational topic that is
focused on wellness.

2. Select two peer-reviewed journal articles that provide
evidence-based support for the health
teaching needs you have identified.
Reflection (20 points)
Nurses use reflection to, mindfully and intentionally, examine
our thought processes, actions,
and behaviors in order to better evaluate our patients’ outcomes.
You have interviewed an
individual, conducted a head-to-toe physical assessment, and
identified at least two health
teaching needs. You have also located within the literature
evidence-based support for the
teaching that will be used to address the individual’s health
education needs. As you formulate
your findings in writing within this assignment, it is time to
turn your attention inward. The final
element of this assignment is to write a reflection that describes
your experience.
1. Be sure your reflection addresses each of the following
questions.
a. How did this assignment compare to what you’ve learned and
expected?
b. What enablers or barriers to communication did you
encounter when performing a
health history and physical exam? How could you overcome
those barriers?

c. Were there any unanticipated challenges encountered during
this assignment?
What went well with this assignment?
d. Was there information you wished you had available but did
not?
e. How will you alter your approach to a obtaining a health
history and conducting a
physical examination the next time?
Writing Style and Format (10 points)
Your writing should reflect your synthesis of ideas based on
prior knowledge, newly acquired
information, and appropriate writing skills. Scoring of your
written communication is based on
proper use of grammar, spelling, and APA sixth-edition
formatting, as well as how clearly your
thoughts and reasoning are expressed in writing.
Documentation of Findings or How to Write the Paper

paper should be formatted according

to APA sixth-edition guidelines for the title page, running head,
and reference page. The use of
headings is required for this paper. All portions of this
assignment should be included within the
paper, including the reflection.
1. Begin by writing one to two paragraphs describing the
individual’s stated condition of health
medications and allergies. Also, include any of the following
information that may be pertinent:
demographic data, perception of health, past medical history,
vaccinations and immunizations,
family medical history, review of systems, developmental
considerations, cultural
considerations, psychosocial considerations, and the presence or
absence of resources from the
community, family, groups, or the healthcare system.
2. Write one paragraph describing the physical assessment
findings, ensuring proper terminology
is used to describe any abnormal or unusual findings.
3. Write one paragraph discussing (1) the rationale for the
