Topic: Sexual Health Assessment Across the Lifespan
As you know from your previous courses, health histories provide the foundation for clinical reasoning and patient care management. In Advanced Health Assessment you learned the importance of modifying your assessment based on the individual’s age, gender, race, lifestyle, preferences, etc. For this assignment, you will design a schema for conducting a sexual health assessment with women of different stages in the life cycle. While the basic details will be consistent between and among the females you assess, there are also age specific concerns, which require emphases in the assessment. Therefore, identify the assessments common to all females and then highlight those specific to the female as an adolescent, young adult, pregnant adult, middle-aged adult and older adult.
Topics to be covered:
-Identification of common sexual health assessment strategies
-Adaptation of assessment for an adolescent female
-Adaptation of assessment for a young adult woman
-Adaptation of assessment for a pregnant woman
-Adaptation of assessment for a middle aged adult woman
-Adaptation of assessment for an older adult woman
