What life-long habits can teens develop to maximize

Reference no: EM133515503

Case Study: You have been invited to conduct a 60-minute interactive learning session at a summer camp for high school students.

All of the camp participants have a single, primary-specific chronic condition (i.e. rheumatoid arthritis, asthma, diabetes, paraplegia, Ehlers-Danlos, etc.) that will likely persist throughout their entire life span. The focus of the camp is healthy living and fun maximizing function. The students participate in many activities and special sessions to facilitate long-term autonomy in their health and well-being.

The interactive learning session you are conducting will not only include the students but also include a few guests who are older adults (65 years+) all successfully living with this condition. The older adults will serve as your session co-facilitators/instructors.

Instructions

Pick a single chronic condition of interest that has a youth onset and average life expectancy into the 60s or higher.
Review the additional resource on how to find credible resources.
Research answers to the following questions related to this condition, noting you need a minimum of 2 credible resources to support your answers:
What is the condition?
What is the typical age of onset?
What is the typical life expectancy?
What life-long habits can teens develop to maximize long-term quality of life?
Which health care providers should be part of the long-term care team?
What are common barriers to transitioning from pediatric care teams to adult health care?
Which common barriers would you like the participants?
What are some of the common health and wellness challenges the older adults face that you would like the teens to develop an awareness of?
Find and watch a video (i.e. YouTube), or Podcast interviewing an older adult who discusses success and/or challenges in living with this condition.
Use your research from the above steps to complete a lesson plan, which is the outline for the interactive session you plan to conduct with the youth.
Do not lecture at the students. Instead, create a plan of inter-active collaboration and discovery of your research-based keypoints.
Be sure to include both the teens and older adults collaboratively in your lesson plan.
