This document is a completed case study assignment for Chamberlain University’s NR305 Health Assessment for the Practicing RN course. It focuses on a virtual patient encounter with “Ben Bundy” using the iHuman platform. The assignment requires students to document a focused SBAR (Situation, Background, Assessment, Recommendation) note, answer reflective questions about the simulation experience, and address post-case questions.
This assignment is intended for students enrolled in NR305 who have completed the Ben Bundy iHuman simulation. It serves as a practical application of assessment and communication skills, specifically utilizing the SBAR framework in a clinical context. It’s designed to be completed after engaging with the virtual patient and formulating a care plan.
This completed assignment serves as an example of how to approach and document a patient assessment. However, it does *not* replace the need for individual critical thinking and application of course concepts. It does not provide instruction on performing assessments or interpreting patient data.
This document includes a completed SBAR note summarizing Ben Bundy’s presentation, a student’s self-reflection on the simulation experience (comfort level, learning points, additional information needs, and further questions for the patient), and a starting point for addressing the post-case questions. It does *not* include the full iHuman simulation experience, the original assignment instructions, or a comprehensive literature review for the post-case questions.
