Educator Design Paper

Educator Design Worksheet
One of the projects completed during P2 IPPEs for students at SDSUs pharmacy program is to complete a patient education assignment in the form of a written document. For this assignment, I chose to complete this assignment by doing the assignment in a newsletter format. This is the accompanying rational behind why certain choices were made and what objectives I wanted to accomplish

For my newsletter, my target audience is middle aged individuals ages 40 to 60s whom may have been just diagnosed with hyperlipidemia or have higher than normal lipid levels.

Additionally, I do not have a webpage to post it or and if it were to be posted I think it should go through a review process where someone in another profession more familiar in the topic should make comments and suggestion on it. If I were to do this project again that’s what I would make it shorter and have it reviewed by a
