The focus of this semester’s reports is the personal patient seen by the student and how they align with the special patient type. Students will include at least two peer-reviewed journal articles; typically these are professional journals and not websites (in addition to your required texts) in APA format, for this assignment. This is a type-written report using the template provided with this assignment.
Example from NIH:
Huang, D. L., Chan, K. C., & Young, B. A. (2013). Poor oral health and quality of life in older U.S. adults with diabetes mellitus. Journal of the American Geriatrics Society, 61(10), 1782–1788. https://doi.org/10.1111/jgs.1245
The summary will include comparisons of what areas are in alignment with a typical geriatric patient AND which areas that are not in alignment.
