Identify and describe three actions you can take as an NP to mitigate the social impacts on marginalized women and/or children.
Nurse Practitioners (NPs) working in the healthcare setting can build a trusting relationship with the women in their facility to mitigate the social impacts on this population. The relationship allows the women to engage with the nurses and give key details about their medical condition to help the practitioner fully understand the issue and make an accurate diagnosis. It is also essential that the NPS understand the experiences of these marginalized women and how the social aspects affect their access to quality healthcare (ProdanāBhalla & Browne, 2019). The knowledge of lived experiences allows a professional to determine the best way to approach a health issue with the marginalized group, give a proper diagnosis, and determine ways to guarantee safety and quality care for the group. Lastly, NPs can mitigate women's social issues by treating them with respect and making them feel part of the egalitarian community. This gives the women courage to come to the facility for their appointments and to seek medical services whenever necessary.
