CLIENT: A 60 year old male with chronic illness living in a remote northern community in Canada.

1. Identify, describe and analyze health inequities and how they affect your assigned client's health and well-being

2. Description of the influences (i.e., intrapersonal, interpersonal, and contextual factors) on their assigned client and support this work with evidence

3. Describe the connections between the social determinants of health and the client's health using hermeneutic and critical lenses

4. Incorporate strategies to engage the class in a dynamic way

Project Framework:

1. Using the inquiry skills (multiple modes of inquiry) you have developed over the semester, identify some of the contexts that are most relevant to your client. Consider the historical, physical, political, economic, social, and linguistic environments that influence your client's health.

2. Examine the underlying assumptions using the hermeneutic phenomenological (HP) and critical lenses to expand your view and to sharpen your focus. What do you see when you use a hermeneutic phenomenological (HP) lens? What do you see when you use a critical lens?

3. Describe and provide possible examples of the connections between the social determinants of health (i.e., education, occupation, social class, social support, gender, racism, poverty) and your client's health and access to healthcare.

4. Describe the inequities (i.e., differences that are unfair, modifiable, and arise from unjust systemic social arrangements) that affect your client's health and well-being.

5. Using a socio-environmental perspective of health, give examples of how a nursing standpoint can support your client's choices and capacities to live meaningful lives within their particular personal and social contexts.
