Lyme Disease

Directions: This discussion will consist of you researching (Lyme Disease)

Provide some information about the topic and answer these questions:

1) Discuss a treatment protocol, innovations in medication or technology such as a new diagnostic test, or surgical procedure, or a new way to interpret data for patient safety.
2) How will this be helpful in treating patients? What are the possible risks or negative aspects?
3) Given that patient safety is a huge initiative in healthcare, how do you see your role be as a future RN in protecting patients who are receiving the treatment, medication, or other intervention? What do you anticipate you will need to do,
lookout for, or alert others about on the healthcare team?
You must write your discussion at a professional level – speaking to future RN’s who have had a host of pre-requisite science classes already and do not need basic fundamentals explained such as “Antibiotics kill germs” – so using patient websites like WebMD are highly discouraged and will result in a deduction of points. Websites must be authentic and reputable.

Your original post must contain a minimum of 400 words and a response to one of your classmates of at least 250
wors. Your response should highlight some aspect of your peer’s topic that they did not cover in their discussion. You will need two authentic web sources, cited in-text and referenced: one for your post, and one that backs up the information in your peer response – these cannot be the same source
