Short term goal: increase physical activity Activities started Stretching Walking moderately for 10 minutes each night Golfing Walking: Patient can reduce his risk of cardiovascular disease by simply walking 150 minutes a week, that is 2 hours and 30 minutes of moderate-intensity activity (CDC, 2011). Golfing: increase in physical activity can reduce his risk of heart disease and colon cancer (CDC, 2011).

Evaluation plan & outcomes Evaluated my patient using the short-term, intermediate, and long-term outcomes Physical activity: short- term outcome: knowledgable and ready to become active intermediate outcome: began stretching, walking, and golfing long-term outcome: yet to be determined Smoking cessation: short-term outcome: knowledgable about smoking and quitting intermediate outcome: taken steps to quit, but reverted back to smoking on a regular basis Nutritious eating: short-term outcome: knowledgeable about eating nutritiously; no desire to eat healthier intermediate outcome: yet to be determined because he has yet to take the steps to eat healthier My patient has the knowledge about each health promotion goal, but has only shown true change in his physical activity. He would like to begin doing more physical activity like jogging once a week. He started using nicotine patches, but then quit using them a few weeks ago and is back to smoking. He refuses to eat healthier because he feels since he is skinny and young that it doesn’t matter if he eats healthy or not. He understands that eating more fruits and vegetables is good for you, but does not care. He wants to eat what he has been and doesn’t have the urge to change his eating habits.
