COURSE OUTCOMES
Assignment enables to meet the following course outcomes:
Identify teaching/learning needs from the health history of an individual. Explain expected client behaviors while differentiating between normal findings, variations, and abnormalities.
REQUIREMENTS
1. Research a disease process using two scientific articles from nursing journals.

Sections to include:

- Conclusion
3. Include at least one image and up to three images that would help the client understand classic symptoms of the disease process. This picture should assist the class in better understanding the disease process.

PREPARING THE BROCHURE
1. Identify appropriate articles for review.
2. Begin to search for images in your textbook or online (make sure you reference your source).
3. Begin the project as soon as possible, allowing yourself plenty of time to make it look good. This means the brochure should be print ready. I expect these to look professional which means you need to spend some time on it.
