Nursing and Patients Aith Diabetes

Step 1; the chosen topic is Diabetes

Step 2

Two patients based medical applications ?· Enhancing inventory control and reducing costs ?· Eliminating errors caused by manual interventions and workarounds

What applications would I upload?

?· Record of prescriptions, pharmacy information and medication consumption actions ?· Set of reminders for medications from various time intervals such as hourly, daily, weekly, monthly and yearly ?· Manage medications and assist hospital pharmacy refill with proactive reminders.

Reason as to why I would download these apps

Being a patient, I have been advised by my medical doctor about certain apps that I need to have in my Smartphone or computers that will help me review swiftly on the issues affecting my diabetic illness (Gordon, 2005). The main reason as to why they came up with this modern technological compliance is to cut off the health care costs that would be consumed by the medics during the examination process and also save the transport cost of patients and these apps are known to provide the patients with the most recent information about the diseases or rather the illnesses that they suffer from.

Step 3; creation of a concept map

Information about diabetes

Diabetes is a World widely known form of disease that has been caused by excessive consumption of sugary materials or rather meals. It is therefore a group or type of disease that is brought about by the excessive consumption of sugar and specifically the high blood glucose sugar. In conjunction to this consumption, there is the insulin which plays a very great role in the body. [image: G:Downloadimages-3.jpeg] The hormone will provide assistance to the glucose when it is getting into your blood cells and thereby giving it the energy to perform its intended functions in the body. There are two major types of diabetes which is the type 1 and type 2 diabetes (Gordon, 2005). [image: G:Downloadimages.jpeg] The type 1 diabetes is the one when it affects you, the body will not be in a position to make insulin while on the other side the type 2 diabetes is that when consumed, the body will not make or even consume the insulin as well.

Guide

This is the criteria in which the personnel's concerned will make the effort of identifying those individuals who have not been affected by the illness and advising them with appropriateness on the side effects of excessive consumption of sugary food. This education process can be done in all the sectors of the world, be it in governmental sectors, the hospital process or even in the general annual meetings and seminars that we do attend within our societies( Gordon,2005). When the issues are dealt with in time, there is high chance of saving the lives of our fellow human beings. Therefore the creation of awareness should be done globally

Communication

As a patient who have suffered from diabetes, I would take this chance to highly request our governments and the medical sectors to take the role of communicating to the general public on their health and not only in diabetes but also in any other illness in the world( Gordon,2005). This can be done through the social media which involves through the computers and mobile phones and not forgetting the general public medias such as the Television and the Radios.

Step 4

Provider based medical application

?· Enhancement of responsiveness and patient satisfaction ?· Collaboration among the mobile staff in order to deliver better results ?· Improvement on patient care and documentation ?· Streamlining of communication by integrating voice, images and text messages in a single device

Step 5

Information

As a doctor, there is need to provide the most adequate information regarding diabetes to my patients in order to have an effective and good coexistence with my clients( Gordon,2005) [image: G:Downloadimages-2.jpeg]. Diabetes is a World widely known form of disease that has been cause by excessive consumption of sugary materials or rather meals. There are two major types of diabetes which is the type 1 and type 2 diabetes. [image: G:Downloadimages-1.jpeg]

Guide

As a doctor, I am entitles to adhere to the doctors Acts and Laws which clearly states the exact rules and regulations that I am supposed to adhere to when dealing with patient( Gordon,2005). This involves very close communication with the patient and getting to understand what he or she is suffering from and offering the most effective medication ever and also good prescription.

Reminders

As a doctor, I am entitled to providing the most effective reminders of my patients about how they should carry out themselves in accordance to the diseases one is ailing from( Gordon,2005). This is done through constant communication with the patient through mails and invoices to check on the patients' progress.

Step 6

How the research supports the use of medical applications

Through a thorough research that is done on a daily basis, we are in a position to note that there has been great transformation when it comes to the medical sector as we are able to see the use of most modern machinery on the patients according to each illness that one suffers from (Gordon, 2005). We are also able to note that there are enough doctors and nurses to deal; with the illnesses of the patients.
