You have two very ill patients this week, and each of them presents a very complicated case. First, you have a patient with an ongoing problem that has resisted diagnosis. He was enroute to an evaluation with a neurologist, but on the way to the hospital suddenly fell into a coma (a state of involuntary unconsciousness due to illness or injury) and had to be brought in to your medical facility by ambulance.

You will use at least 10 medical terms to describe this patient, and to refer to the original underlying problem the patient had in the first place. Use the nervous system medical word elements chart and the medical, surgical, and diagnostic terms chart on from your textbook to get you started on the medical terms you will need. You can include specific drugs used in neurological disease as you list at least 3 tests and procedures used. 

Your second patient this week is also quite ill and is presenting a number of problems. This patient is diabetic, and also has another Endocrine System disorder (of your choice). Consult the endocrine medical word elements chart as you develop medical terms—include at least 10 that would be appropriate in this case. You should consult  medical, surgical, and diagnostic procedures in your textbook as you select at least 3 tests and procedures for this patient. .

What is the difference between a group “at risk” for poor  health and a group considered a “vulnerable” population?  Provide an example of an “at risk” or “vulnerable  population” group in the United States and one in another country  (or immigrants within the United States).

1. Explain why members of these groups cannot advocate for    themselves or why advocating for these groups would be  beneficial.
2. What would you advocate for?
3. Identify    ethical issues that need to be addressed when working with these  individuals.
4. Provide information about the selected “at    risk” group. How many individuals fall into this group and what    are some issues they face.
