Remake of Patient Teaching on Osteoporosis Prevention by Tousignant, Jacqueline https://padlet.com/jtousignant3/k20qdpxk4oogsnau Add to our padlet, by the date listed in the course calendar, three points that should be taught to our patient to prevent osteoporosis. These are big life changes to make at one time. How would you counsel the patient to make and sustain these changes? Post a response to one peer identifying how a patient could implement one change. en-us 2022-02-27 01:29:08 UTC 2025-09-24 08:39:04 UTC hello@padlet.com Scenario to discuss jtousignant3 https://padlet.com/jtousignant3/k20qdpxk4oogsnau/wish/2067843140 2022-02-27 01:32:20 UTC https://padlet.com/jtousignant3/k20qdpxk4oogsnau/wish/2067843140 Assignment Grading Rubric jtousignant3 https://padlet.com/jtousignant3/k20qdpxk4oogsnau/wish/2067843236 2022-02-27 01:32:37 UTC https://padlet.com/jtousignant3/k20qdpxk4oogsnau/wish/2067843236 Osteoporosis Teaching jjgauthier https://padlet.com/jtousignant3/k20qdpxk4oogsnau/wish/2067856393 2022-02-27 02:09:16 UTC https://padlet.com/jtousignant3/k20qdpxk4oogsnau/wish/2067856393 H2 Osteoporosis https://padlet.com/jtousignant3/k20qdpxk4oogsnau/wish/2068443841 2022-02-27 20:19:01 UTC https://padlet.com/jtousignant3/k20qdpxk4oogsnau/wish/2068443841 Preventing Osteoporosis https://padlet.com/jtousignant3/k20qdpxk4oogsnau/wish/2068459473 2022-02-27 20:46:09 UTC https://padlet.com/jtousignant3/k20qdpxk4oogsnau/wish/2068459473 Osteoporosis Prevention ksmith1366 https://padlet.com/jtousignant3/k20qdpxk4oogsnau/wish/2070425895 I would first discuss diet with Janie as preventative measure for osteoporosis. I would want to provide information regarding healthy foods high in calcium including oranges, milk, and cheese and foods high in vitamin D such as salmon and fortified cereals. I could also suggest supplemental products if the patient doesn’t like those foods. Letting the patient know that calcium helps us maintain the strength of our bones and vitamin D helps absorb the calcium. Encouraging Janie to increase fruits, vegetables, and foods high in calcium and vitamin D will help to prevent osteoporosis. 
My next recommendation would be to quit smoking and let Janie know that smoking affects the body’s ability to absorb calcium. Offering many options for smoking cessation such as Chantix, Wellbutrin, Nicotrol, or nicotine gum, patches, and lozenges could make this an easier transition for the patient along with providing information for online support groups.  
Lastly, I would educate the patient regarding an active lifestyle and encourage exercise. Currently, Janie leads a sedentary lifestyle which puts her at a higher risk of developing osteoporosis. By suggesting Janie to work out 3-5 times a week for roughly 30 minutes can build bone mass and reduce the risk of osteoporosis.  
Helping Janie quit smoking, changing her diet, and adding exercise to her day would be extremely beneficial to Janie’s health not only when it comes to osteoporosis prevention but also beneficial for many other body systems.
