Navigating Perspectives: A Journey into Values and Beliefs



Faculty of Health Disciplines, Athabasca University

NURS 436: Family Health Promotion: Assignment 3

Professor: Lisa-Anne Barrett

, Exploring Values and Beliefs

This paper examines the author's values and beliefs about family nursing and health
promotion and their influence on decision-making and professional judgment. According
to Blais and Hayes (2015), nurses are required to exhibit value-neutral behaviour. Nurses
must be aware of their values and how these values can impact their actions (p. 55). This
reflective journal helps examine and reflect on personal values, beliefs and assumptions,
leading to a change in perspective (Melrose et al., 2013).

(Baker, 2022) Alex Abraham

Alex is a 42-year-old man who was recently diagnosed
with Type II Diabetes at a family care clinic. He works
out of town doing 12 hours of shift work and is away
from home for two weeks at a time. He is married and
has two young children at home. He is having difficulty
accepting his new
diagnosis.
Assumptions Regarding Patients
Familiesand
What Guided my Selection Process? I
would choose Alex as a client because of Alex's extended 12-hour work shift likely affects his dietary
my experience helping diabetics. I am habits. Additionally, the
confident in my abilities and believe I have two-week separation from his family is likely a source of
the knowledge and skills to support Alex stress for him. Alex may be dealing with excess weight.
effectively.



The Family Nursing Assessment and Family Health Promotion


I will evaluate Alex's comprehension of Type II Diabetes, assess his readiness to learn, and provide the necessary instruction.

Additionally, I will examine Alex's existing dietary plan and exercise regimen. Given that weight loss is a fundamental

treatment for type 2 diabetes and recognizing that "exercise is also important in enhancing the effectiveness of insulin"

(Hinkle et al., 2022,1277), I intend to educate Alex and his family on the significance of managing diabetes through proper

diet and exercise. Furthermore, I will emphasize the importance of monitoring blood sugar levels and recognizing signs and

symptoms of hypoglycemia and hyperglycemia. As highlighted by Paul et al. (2016), the "five components of diabetes

management include nutrition, exercise, monitoring, pharmacologic therapy, and education" (p. 1279).
