Transcript



Tell Us About a Healthcare Program, Within Your Practice. What Are the Costs and

Projected Outcomes of This Program?

Nurses are often the first responders when patients visit a healthcare center. They

encounter numerous patients with lifestyle diseases, particularly with weight-related illnesses,

including pulmonary and cardiovascular issues, stroke, and diabetes (Yardley et al., 2014). To

mitigate these health issues, they spearhead the design and implementation of weight loss and

management programs. The projected outcomes of this program include lifestyle modifications

with regard to diet and physical activity, personalized bodyweight reduction, and prevention of

further weight gain, and prevention of weight-related diseases. Although Yaeger et al. (2018)

state that some weight management interventions may be unrealistic and require substantial

resources, a study by Dupart et al. (2017) indicates that nurse-led weight management

interventions are often cost-effective, especially when positively acknowledged by stakeholders.

This program requires substantial education resources and financial and human resource input,

but it is cost-effective.

Who Is Your Target Population?

, The target patient population comprises children at risk of obesity, obese and overweight

patients at risk of coronary, diabetes, and mobility programs, and overweight people already

battling lifestyle diseases.


What Is the Role of the Nurse in Providing Input for The Design of This Healthcare

Program? Can You Provide Examples?



Nurses' roles include establishing the importance of lifestyle changes and what to change

to reduce cholesterol levels and manage long-term weight loss. Phillips et al. (2014) assert that

nurses have a robust secondary prevention and disease management role that makes them

essential in delivering weight management interventions. Their role in the design process

includes determining appropriate intervention for each weight issue. Besides, nurses know the

resources and information patients need to tackle and manage weight conditions. Nurses’

involvement in the design process guarantees an optimal balance between nutrition and exercise

to attain and maintain a normal weight.

What Is Your Role as an Advocate for Your Target Population for This Healthcare

Program? Do You Have Input into Design Decisions? How Else Do You Impact Design?

Nurses advocate for the target population by conducting and disseminating research

regarding effects of excess weight on health outcomes to help explain the risk factors associated

with obesity to promote change. Their advocacy role extends to designing and implementing

evidence-based activities designed for secondary weight gain and obesity prevention, weight

loss, and maintenance. These practitioners have substantial and essential input into design

decisions. For instance, they help determine the intervention, duration, and intensity of physical

activity needed for each patient. They also help determine the amount of energy deficit required

to lose and maintain weight.
