Description The following Doctor of Nursing Practice dissertation aims to provide practitioners with a toolkit they can confidently prescribe to patients that can benefit from making healthy lifestyle changes.
Abstract Healthy lifestyle changes can impact hypercholesterolemia. Despite the effectiveness of statin drugs in reducing cholesterol, many patients deny this treatment. In addition to medications, practitioners need a resource to help their patients navigate making healthy lifestyle changes. An evidence-based, well-developed lifestyle website can be a tool for practitioners to offer patients that will benefit cholesterol levels.Results: All participants showed a knowledge gain in the pre-and post-assessment results. Qualitative data showed that students were engaged in healthy life skills classes. Implications: Adolescents is a time of rapid growth and learning. Mental health is an essential part of adolescent development. Promoting healthy life skills can help them deal with stressors during adolescence.
