Health promotion and disease prevention
Create a journal assignment in which you address the following scenario: Ms. Morton, a 35-year-old female, is seen in the clinic with complaints of a flat lesion with a scaly, crusty surface on the shoulder. She has an excisional biopsy of the lesion, and the pathology report comes back as squamous cell skin cancer. How would you discuss the risk factors for developing skin cancer with the patient? What prevention strategies would you use to help her reduce the risk of additional skin cancer? Search online for at least one piece of educational material on the early detection of skin cancer. Utilizing the Free Text Readability Consensus Calculator, determine the reading level of the material you find and explain whether or not you would recommend the resource to your patient.
Please use at least one online resourse either .gov or .org
