Provide at least five targeted questions you would ask the patient.

Five targeted questions I would ask her to build a health history will include; 1) what is your reason for seeking care? 2) Tell me about your previous living conditions? 3) Are you sexually active? 4) How do you cope up with stress, and 5) Do you have a support system or anyone that can help you in times of illness? These five questions may provide me with important information about her health risks and ways she manages an illness.

Lebanese Female in Graduate-Student Housing
Introduction
A 26-year-old Lebanese female living in graduate-student housing presents to the clinic. I enter
the exam room and ask the patient how she communicates best. The student is a graduate
student and probably speaks English as a second language. I will not assume and bring in a
translation device with me. As an Advanced Nurse Practitioner (ANP), I know that I need to
communicate with many patients throughout the day, that come from very different environments
and social complexities. However, I must show that I am a non-judgmental person or use
medical jargon that my patients may not understand (Ball et al., 2019, pg. 8).
Communication and interview techniques for building a health history differ with each patient.
All four of the scenario patients live in different environments and have many diverse social
complexities. Therefore, questions during their interviews would differ vastly for some. Some
may experience more financial burdens than others and not have a means to quality healthcare.
For some, it may be an issue of cultural diversity that exists.
According to Wu & Orlando (2015), health risk assessments provide an opportunity to promote
health and educate on disease prevention for individuals and populations. A vital component of
health risk assessments is a comprehensive collection of personal health history information.
This information helps establish risk both for common conditions and more rare diseases.
Risk Assessment
One risk assessment that should be asked of every patient is a risk assessment for suicide. There
are many school pressures, and being in a foreign country could be a huge que for depression.

College students are becoming increasingly depressed; however, many do not attend university
counseling to seek help (D’Amico et al., 2016).
Being Lebanese, certain cancers affect them more than others due to a heavy prevalence of
smoking. Due to smoking, bladder cancer is a huge concern for this population. Bladder cancer
cases that were the result of smoking in Lebanon among males and females are 33.4 and 18.6%,
respectively, according to Temraz et al. (2019).
Asking if the patient smokes would be a crucial question to ask. Sharing Evidence-Based
Research with the patient would be of the utmost importance.
Target Health Questions
If I were to develop targeted questions that I would ask my patient to assess her health risks and
begin building a health history. I would start with what brings you to see me today. Then I
would ask if she has any culture or spiritual practices that I need to be aware of/ and or if she is
involved with any spiritual groups within the community. I would ask her how important her
schoolwork and finishing her degree is to her. I would ask if she was under any duress or
depressed in her school life or social life. If she answers positively to depression, I would ask if
she seeks support for her college. I would ask if the patient smokes and/or uses alcohol to help
with stress? I would ask her if she was sexually active and how she feels about contraceptive

Sample solution

Dante Alighieri played a critical role in the literature world through his poem Divine Comedy that was written in the 14th century. The poem contains Inferno, Purgatorio, and Paradiso. The Inferno is a description of the nine circles of torment that are found on the earth. It depicts the realms of the people that have gone against the spiritual values and who, instead, have chosen bestial appetite, violence, or fraud and malice. The nine circles of hell are limbo, lust, gluttony, greed and wrath. Others are heresy, violence, fraud, and treachery. The purpose of this paper is to examine the Dante’s Inferno in the perspective of its portrayal of God’s image and the justification of hell. 

In this epic poem, God is portrayed as a super being guilty of multiple weaknesses including being egotistic, unjust, and hypocritical. Dante, in this poem, depicts God as being more human than divine by challenging God’s omnipotence. Additionally, the manner in which Dante describes Hell is in full contradiction to the morals of God as written in the Bible. When god arranges Hell to flatter Himself, He commits egotism, a sin that is common among human beings (Cheney, 2016). The weakness is depicted in Limbo and on the Gate of Hell where, for instance, God sends those who do not worship Him to Hell. This implies that failure to worship Him is a sin.

God is also depicted as lacking justice in His actions thus removing the godly image. The injustice is portrayed by the manner in which the sodomites and opportunists are treated. The opportunists are subjected to banner chasing in their lives after death followed by being stung by insects and maggots. They are known to having done neither good nor bad during their lifetimes and, therefore, justice could have demanded that they be granted a neutral punishment having lived a neutral life. The sodomites are also punished unfairly by God when Brunetto Lattini is condemned to hell despite being a good leader (Babor, T. F., McGovern, T., & Robaina, K. (2017). While he commited sodomy, God chooses to ignore all the other good deeds that Brunetto did.

Finally, God is also portrayed as being hypocritical in His actions, a sin that further diminishes His godliness and makes Him more human. A case in point is when God condemns the sin of egotism and goes ahead to commit it repeatedly. Proverbs 29:23 states that “arrogance will bring your downfall, but if you are humble, you will be respected.” When Slattery condemns Dante’s human state as being weak, doubtful, and limited, he is proving God’s hypocrisy because He is also human (Verdicchio, 2015). The actions of God in Hell as portrayed by Dante are inconsistent with the Biblical literature. Both Dante and God are prone to making mistakes, something common among human beings thus making God more human.

To wrap it up, Dante portrays God is more human since He commits the same sins that humans commit: egotism, hypocrisy, and injustice. Hell is justified as being a destination for victims of the mistakes committed by God. The Hell is presented as being a totally different place as compared to what is written about it in the Bible. As a result, reading through the text gives an image of God who is prone to the very mistakes common to humans thus ripping Him off His lofty status of divine and, instead, making Him a mere human. Whether or not Dante did it intentionally is subject to debate but one thing is clear in the poem: the misconstrued notion of God is revealed to future generations.
