Review the clinical scenario presented and respond to questions.
Manuel is a 29-year-old construction worker who has recently been diagnosed with a seizure disorder after a traumatic brain injury in a motorcycle accident. He lives with his wife Juanita and 14 month-old son in a duplex next to his in-laws, who own a landscape business. Juanita has just started her first semester in a nursing program at the local community college. Use the health belief model to guide the development of a lesson plan that contains teaching on drug therapy and seizure prevention, including awareness of personal triggers and safety. Include cognitive, affective, and psychomotor skills in your plan.
