What type of care would Nurse Velma’s nursing center provide? A. Wellness B. Comprehensive primary care C. Special care

Velma G. is a nurse practitioner who would like to open a grant-funded nursing center in downtown Chicago. For the past 8 years, Nurse Velma has worked primarily with Dr. Nolan, a physician who specializes in diabetes management for adults. From her encounters with the clients she saw, Nurse Velma became concerned about how newly diagnosed diabetic clients cope with making the lifestyle changes that she and Dr. Nolan recommended. Nurse Velma began to survey newly diagnosed clients and their families regarding what helped or hindered their success with the lifestyle changes recommended after they had been diagnosed with diabetes. Having someone to talk to and to advise them on a regular basis was the most common factor in a successful transition. Many diabetic patients felt overwhelmed with their new diagnosis and had trouble remembering what they had been taught in the doctor’s office. Family members voiced that they felt confused about what it meant to be diabetic and did not understand what they could do to offer support to the client. Nurse Velma believes that a nursing center staffed with nurse practitioners and diabetic educators could help newly diagnosed clients make necessary lifestyle changes by giving them the knowledge and support they need during this transitional time.
