Reflect on a patient from your practicum setting who presented with signs or symptoms of risk behaviors. Recall the theory/model you selected in this week’s

Discussion. Explain how you might use (or did use) the theory/model in practice to influence changes in this patient’s risk behaviors. If you have not had the

opportunity to evaluate a patient with this background during the last three weeks, you may select a related case study from a reputable source or reflect on previous

clinical experiences.
Note: When referring to your patient, make sure to use a pseudonym or other false form of identification. This is to ensure the privacy and protection of the patient.
