Instructions
In this final project, you will create a plan and medication teaching tools for the patient you create. The tool can be a pamphlet, cartoon, handout, presentation, video, be creative!
 Remember to consider the audience, as the tool itself should be geared toward the patient. 

 Directions:

* Write a scenario for your patient. What happened to make them seek medical attention?
* Patient’s age, sex, race, primary and/or secondary language spoken
* Learning barriers – must identify at least 2, and explain how you will overcome the barriers
