Health and Gerontology Review

For this assignment, you will review the latest evidence based guidelines as they pertain to the case below. Discussion of the case is based on the course objectives and weekly content, which emphasize the core learning objectives for an evidence-based primary care curriculum. Throughout your nurse practitioner program, case study discussions are used to promote the development of clinical reasoning through the use of ongoing assessments and diagnostic skills, and to develop patient care plans that are grounded in the latest clinical guidelines and evidence-based practice. Tasks: A seventy-year-old female patient who is well known to you comes to see you because she feels like she may be drinking “too much” lately. She says she has a martini before dinner and usually 203 glasses of wine in the evening. ·      What is your response to her? ·      What evidence of this do you find? She also wants to know if there are any medications that can help her with this. ·      What is your response? To support your work, use your course and text readings and also use the South University Online Library. As in all assignments, cite your sources in your work and provide references for the citations in APA format.
