Consider how your patient’s economic situation and relevant environmental factors may have contributed to your patient’s current condition or affect their future health.
Consider how your patient’s culture or family should influence your concept map.
Justify the value and relevance of the evidence you used as the basis of your concept map.
Explain why your evidence is valuable and relevant to your patient’s case.
Explain why each piece of evidence is appropriate for both the health issue you are trying to correct and for the unique situation of your patient and their family.
