Develop a patient medication guide for treatment of depressive disorders in a vulnerable population (your choice for one vulnerable patient population to choose from: children, adolescents, older adults, dementia patients, pregnant women or one not listed of your choice!). Be sure to use language appropriate for your audience (patient, caregiver, parent, etc.). You will include non-copyright images and\/or information tables to make your patient medication guide interesting and appealing. Limit your patient medication guide to 5 pages. You will create this guide as an assignment; therefore, a title page, introduction, conclusion, and reference page are required. You must include a minimum of 3 scholarly supporting resources outside of your course provided resources.
In your patient guide, include discussion on the following:
\u2022 Depressive disorder causes and symptoms
\u2022 How depression is diagnosed for the vulnerable population of your choice, why is this population considered vulnerable
\u2022 Medication treatment options including risk vs benefits; side effects; FDA approvals for the vulnerable population of your choice
\u2022 Medication considerations of medication examples prescribed (see last bullet item)
\u2022 What is important to monitor in terms of labs, comorbid medical issues with why important for monitoring
\u2022 Special Considerations (you must be specific, not general and address at least one for EACH category; you must demonstrate critical thinking beyond basics of HIPPA and informed consent!): legal considerations, ethical considerations, cultural considerations, social determinants of health
\u2022 Where to follow up in your local community for further information
\u2022 Provide 3 examples of how to write a proper prescription that you would provide to the patient or transmit to the pharmacy.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
