In what ways does mental health need to be considered across the illness/injury continuum?

The Assignment:
Develop a teaching plan for treating the potential psychological issues that may result from
health crises in either the elderly or young children. You will use PowerPoint to present your
teaching plan. Some considerations to make include:
• In what ways does mental health need to be considered across the illness/injury
continuum?
• How can nurses help both patients and caregivers work through mental blocks and
depression associated with an illness or injury?
• Although treatment will take place in a medical facility, how can non-medical
treatments be used as a supplement?
Support your idea with a minimum of three references from the professional nursing literature
in the assigned course readings and other references in the Walden Library. If they are relevant,
you may use one or two professional Web sites in addition to the literature references.
Include the main elements of your presentation to a group of parents or elderly or their
caregivers. This PowerPoint presentation should include between 8–10 slides. I
