PART 1: Write A Comprehensive Proposal for your Client: – 10% – Min of 2,000 words and max of 2,500 words due in Week 3. A consulting proposal is a document sent from a consultant to a prospective client describing a job or assignment they wish to take on and the conditions under which they will do so. Consulting proposals are usually written only after the consultant and prospective client have discussed the job at length. However, n this situation, the client BUSI 640 (V03) – Individual Assignment Brief 3 briefing is provided in the form of the Case Study. The end of each case study may contain a question(s) or a reflection about next steps or a dilemma faced by the protagonist (person at centre of the centre). Use this as your starting point and or convert into a problem statement of what the client is facing. Business proposals and business plans are not the same. The proposal’s aim is to sell your consulting service, rather than your business as a commercial entity. Whether the proposal is solicited (RFP – Request For Proposal) or unsolicited, the steps to create your proposal are similar. Simple Guide to Writing a Proposal: https://www.wikihow.com/Create-a-ConsultingProposal Also please see the PP Slides on Writing A Proposal and the Sample Proposal on Moodle/MyUCW. While the format of a proposal may vary widely and a RFP may stipulate specific headings and information, all proposals should be written in a clear and succinct manner which explicitly sets expectations of both parties and indicates the parameters of the consulting service. It should be about 2,500 words in length, and it should address the following information under designated headings: (these headings are not rigid, so choose the ones that work best for your specific client)

Design plans for care specific to the older adult.
Consider the scenario below, then follow the instructions underneath it to complete the assignment.
Mrs. Y
Mrs. Y is an 84-year-old client who was recently discharged from the hospital for an infected diabetic ulcer on her left leg. During her hospitalization, Mrs. Y required intravenous antibiotic therapy through a peripherally inserted central catheter (PICC) line.
Due to Mrs. Y’s long history of diabetes, her physician ordered that intravenous antibiotic therapy be continued at home. Subsequently, home health services were initiated, a home health nurse was assigned to Mrs. Y’s case, and an initial home visit was scheduled.
The home health nurse arrives at Mrs. Y’s home and introduces herself to the client and the family. The nurse explains the home nursing services that will be provided, including the PICC line and intravenous antibiotic therapy treatments.
During the initial home visit, the nurse assessed the physiological, psychological, functional, and safety needs of the client. The nurse’s findings were as follows:

• Mrs. Y lives alone; however, her daughter checks on her frequently throughout the day.
• The client is noted to have moderate functional issues and ambulates with a cane.
• The client has several throw rugs in the main walking quarters and minimal lighting throughout the hallways.
• Mrs. Y states “I used to get around my house with ease, but now I get a little tired and have to sit down and rest frequently.”

Consider Mrs. Y’s current health status and functional decline, then address the following:

1. Download the Concept Map and Plan of Care worksheet below. An example is also provided for your reference.
   • File: Concept Map and Plan of Care worksheet
   • File: Concept Map and Plan of Care example
2. Identify three (3) priority nursing diagnoses for Mrs. Y. Consider using the resource below to assist you.
   • eBook: Nursing Diagnosis Manual: Planning, Individualizing, and Documenting Client Care – Chapter 5 Nursing Diagnoses in Alphabetical Order
3. Create a visual representation of the three (3) priority nursing diagnoses by incorporating them into the Concept Map (template in the worksheet). Be sure each nursing diagnosis includes the following elements:
   1. “related to (r/t)” — description of the client’s problem
   2. “as evidenced by” — description of the client’s symptoms
4. Complete the Nursing Plan of Care (table in the worksheet) describing what should be implemented for Mrs. Y.
   1. Goals: Establish at least one (1) goal for each of the nursing diagnoses you identified (for a total of 3 goals). Goals should be: patient specific, measurable, actionable, realistic, and time limited.
   2. Nursing Interventions: Describe at least three (3) nursing interventions for each of the goals (for a total of 9 nursing interventions). Each intervention should be in alignment with the goal it is supporting.

Throughout this capstone course, you will be investigating a patient, family, or population health problem relevant to your practice. For this assessment, you will identify the problem that you will address throughout your clinical practicum in this course, as well as begin to establish your evidence and research base to plan, implement, and share findings related to your project. The Problem Identification Template [DOC] will guide you through development of a problem statement, evidence collection and analysis, and best practices to help you create your implementation plan for the second assessment in this course.
Your submission for this assessment will be the completed template. When working through the template, you may use the resources provided in this course; however, most of your research and search for evidence will be conducted by you. Use the Capella University Library, professional organization and government resources, and relevant organizational best practices as sources of evidence. This is the capstone course for your BSN degree; your goal is to demonstrate your achievement of the program outcomes through your work on this project.
The following are some health issues that would be appropriate for your project:

• Diabetes self-management.
• Hypertension management and prevention.
• Medication reconciliation within a family or group.
• Parkinson’s disease support group.
• Patient family education communication improvements.
• Postoperative home care.

This list is by no means exhaustive. You should choose a patient, family, or population health issue that is relevant to your practice and organization; you must be able to study the problem in your practicum effectively.
