1. Collect the data outlined in the template. There are two parts:
· Online data collection – gather data from the weblinks provided on the template
· Modified windshield survey data collection – gather local community data by physically looking at your community
· If possible, plan on asking someone to drive during your survey so that you can take notes.
· Your community should be the area where you live or the area surrounding your work. The community must include a residential area and be a large enough area to answer the survey questions. If you live in a large area, you may choose a suburb.
· Note: It is helpful to conduct this portion of the assessment at least two different times: during the day or evening, on a weekday, and/or on the weekend.
2. Identify a nursing problem (nursing diagnosis) based on data and observations
· You must select a problem caused by your topic
· Important: the problem you identify will be utilized in Parts 2, 3, and 4 of the project.
3. Identify the vulnerable population that the problem affects. This will also determine who you will present to in Part 2.
4. Write the nursing diagnosis (See template and chapter 6 in Nies & McEwen textbook for more information)
