Choose(1) onechildhood experience from the list provided below. This list has been generated from the Australian Institute of health and Welfare XXXXXXXXXXAustralia’s Children report.

  • Asthma in children aged 5-14
  • Type 1 diabetes in children aged 0-14
  • Brain cancer in children up to 14 years
  • Anxiety disorders in children aged 5-14
  • Dental decay in children over 12
  • Overweight/Obesity in children 5-14
  • School aged child living with an intellectual disability
  • Children experiencing homelessness
  • Low birthweight babies
  • Children who are exposed to or a victim of family violence

After researching the prevalence of your chosen childhood experience, develop a brief hypothetical case study (200 words or so) about a child and their family highlighting the health care setting in which you (the nurse) meet the family;the case study helps to guide your essay and provide context for your reader.

To explore the impact of your chosen childhood experience on the child and their family in the case study you have developed, read widely and address the following prompts informed bycontemporary and relevantdevelopmental, nursing and family care theory:

  1. Outline the prevalence in Australia of the childhood experience chosen and highlight the short term, medium term and potential long term health outcomes/impact on the child
  2. Discuss the impact (protective or otherwise) of family, culture and environment on the identified health outcomes for children identified from prompt 1
  3. Explore the impact of the chosen childhood experience on the learning and development of the child in the case study, in light of their age/stage of development
  4. When you (the nurse) meet the family (as outlined in your case study) how might you engage therapeutically with the child and family? Outline age/development appropriate communication strategies that you could adopt to support child/family flourishing
  5. Based on the chosen childhood experience selected and the case study specifics, provide two priority nursing actions/interventions with rationales, that would advocate for positive child/family health outcomes

This essay will be developed with an introduction, body and conclusion, with correct grammar and spelling and acknowledging sources using APA 7thEdition referencing style. Word count of 2000 words +/-10% will be maintained; inclusive of intext references, excluding reference list.

Introduction
Obesity and overweight is a major issue of concern in children aged between 5-14 years. It is associated with developing severe health complications in future such as diabetes, cardiovascular diseases, cancer, poor health, poor performance in school and an increased risk of obesity in adulthood as well as an overall poor quality of life. In the year 2017-2018, there was reportedly 25% obesity observed amongst children in Australia. Genetics is primarily responsible for obesity in children according to a health survey in Australia since approximately 90% of children inherit the obese tendencies from their mothers during pregnancy. Parents play a role model in their children’s lives and by maintaining a healthy lifestyle they set an example for their kids too. There should be strict discipline that needs to be followed by the parents in the form of eating healthy fruits and vegetables that will motivate the child to follow in their footsteps. There must be a proper balance between the amount of calories inherited by a child and the amount of calories burnt by doing physical activities.
Hypothetical case study
    Master Master X, age 7 years has been battling with obesity for a period of three years. Alongwith obesity he has also developed type II diabetes and hypertension. The child is also known to have a habit of indulging in fast foods and sugary beverages. He has a disrupted sleeping pattern as well as an inactive lifestyle. The parents of the child are also obese and have diabetes. Other concerning habits of Master X is that he watches television for long hours and refuse to indulge in any physical activities. Due to his obesity he is having trouble meeting his educational needs and hence his parents decided to get his treatment started with our healthcare organisation. As a Maternal and Child Health Nurse in Australia I promote healthy feeding practices and lifestyle behaviours in children. On the basis of the child’s weight I calculated his BMI and found that it was too high for a normal child and to control his diabetes and hypertension I started him on some medications. Alongwith that I made a treatment plan for the child where I updated his nutritious uptake per day alongwith education materials guide on play, exercise and sedentary behaviour.
What are the short-term, mid-term and long-term health risks associated with obesity?
    According to Hemmingsson (2018), prevention is the absolute strategy and treatment available for childhood obesity since obesity results in a reduced metabolic rate as well as an increase in the hormonal secretions caused by increase in appetite. This causes resistance to build up in case of the conventional treatments. Studies have shown that 0-5 years of age is critical for the development of obesity and if it is not controlled it may be predictive in developing in adulthood. Therefore it is necessary to prevent in the early childhood itself.
    Some of the short-term risks includes high cholesterol, prediabetes (a condition where blood glucose levels are elevated), headaches and bodyaches causing discomfort, musculoskeletal issues, restricted mobility, shortness of
eath while performing physical activities, digestive problems such as indigestion, psychological distress and generalised fatigue and inactivity. Being overweight affects a person in all aspects of life and makes doing even little things extremely difficult since all the body’s systems are overworked.
    The long-term effects of obesity are of a more serious nature and quite complicated at the same time. It can lead to cardiovascular problems such as stroke, hypertension and heart diseases, diabetes I and II, development of cancer (particularly of kidney, colon, uterus and
east), Osteoarthritis (bone disease), venous ulcers, gall bladder disorders, metal illness such as depression and anxiety issues, sleeping disorders (sleep apnea), liver diseases (such as Non Alcoholic Fatty Liver), social isolation and an overall impact of decrease in lifespan. Hence maintenance of a healthy BMI (Body Mass Index) is very important. A high BMI value is a sign of development of health issues in obese people and is considered a threat by the healthcare professionals.
    In addition to this childhood adversity is related to developing low self-esteem, mental health issues, chronic stress, emotional turmoil, insecurity and suicidal thoughts in...
