FAMILY NURSING HEALTH PROMOTION1
Importance of health promotion
Health promotion is an important intervention in nursing. In this article, we will focus
about common family nursing actions that can bring in important impact in the people’s
health. Family health problems is addressed by acknowledging it with proper nursing
intervention and evaluations. The nursing care plans designed for every individuals is
according to their needs.it is important to involve family members in the care plan as they
provide the patient with psychological stability (Arnold & Boggs, 2019). Nursing principles
and beliefs are required in such situations for better outcome. Holistic practice, empathic and
thoughtful nature of nurses desired for nurses to present to the families. Mental support and
consultation provided by the nurses are crucial in family nursing.
Clinical conditions that I would like to intervene
As a nurse, we must be aware of every clinical conditions and intervene in
emergencies. If given option out of the situations in bios, I would like to intervene for the
man diagnosed with diabetes, five year old with acute respiratory disease and Fiona who is
16-year-old pregnant girl in her second trimester of pregnancy. My decision on choosing the
following people is based on the special care they need. The reason for choosing the
following cases as I think there is more need of care required and better counselling needed
for their families. The diabetic patient and his family have less knowledge regarding the
consequences of the illness the five-year-old boy needs a systematic care approach with
palliative care (Coyne, 2015). In the third case, the pregnant lady is devoid of basic care and
is in need to get emotional support. These are the reasons for my decision to intervene into
the above stated three situations amongst the given conditions given in the bios.

My influence in the decision making process
Alex Abraham the diabetic patient is the only working in his family, which gives him
stress so therefore it is important to counsel their family members regarding basic care that
ensures to the man for complete care. In case of the five-year-old boy who is down with
respiratory illness, there is need have proper care as in this age infection is common and
parents may not have adequate knowledge in handling the child’s illness. From the
information, it is clear that the teenage pregnant girl is alone, have no family members to take
care of, and is in need of routine examinations and guidance. Nursing interventions in care
plan and implementation may help to improve the patient’s situation and educate the family
members (Craig et al., 2015). Diabetes is a common disease among many around the globe
and is common in age group of 40s but the care pattern is different for people. The 43-year-
old man is under strenuous work pressure and care must be provided by assuring balanced
diet and timely exercises. Family members must be educated about how badly stress would
affect the person. The 5-year-old boy’s family who is suffering from respiratory illness must
take necessary precautions to see that the boy does not contract infection. The necessary
treatment must be given to the boy with proper counselling from the nurse. The family
member especially the mother of the child must be informed about the medications that the
boy should receive. The pregnant girl is in advanced stage of pregnancy, serious
complications may occur both to the foetus, and to the girl and no is there to take care of.
Therefore, nurses are required to give more care and thoroughly assess the lifestyle like stress
levels, adequate nutrition and monitor the health. The patient is living alone and anytime
accident may occur as no one is there to look after her, so being a nurse it is my duty to
inspect her health every third day and shift her to nearby place and look after her every day.
