Prevention Of Stomach Flu

This action project is for my Math and science class called Cure. For the last action project of this class we had to make a normal conversation between a doctor and a patient. The purpose of this was to show the relationship between a doctor and a patient and also to have a conversation about either treatment or prevention. In the conversation we had to give at least three options the patient can take on his road to prevention or treatment. I learned a lot about different treatment and prevention a patient can take. I also learned about how a doctor and patients relationship be. I am very proud of my video because I took a lot of time on it and also it was well thought out. It was very hard to do the video because I had a lot of tech problems in the process but it ended up working and being a very successful video! Please see my video and script below!! ENJOY




Doctor: How are you feeling today?

Patient: I’m feeling...alright. but a bunch of my family has been getting stomach flu and I'm scared I'll get it!
Doctor: I think I can help! How often has this been happening?

Patient: It has already happened to 3 close family members..

Doctor: Well before I get into the details, I want to know if you have any questions for me?

Patient: Yeah. I've been wondering if there is anything I can do to prevent it?

Doctor: one important thing is you have to start eating better.. and also try to stay away for infected family members!

Patient: I will do that! can you please tell me more about the way I should eat to prevent this from happening to me!

Doctor: Well one way is to eat healthier and get the right nutrition in your diet!
Patient: What do you mean by that? can you explain?

Doctor: I mean that a lot of these so called healthy foods sometimes have additives such as GMO’s or unnecessary sugars that can destroy it natural nutritional value. Also you have to watch out with buying fruits because a lot of these supermarkets advertise “fresh food” but most of the time the fruit isn't really fresh!

Patient: Maybe that is the cause! A lot of my family shops at a near by corner store and all of the food they get is…….. well not that healthy.

Doctor: Another way you can prevent it is to stay away from infected family members so you don't also have the same stomach flu. Another thing you can do is wash your hands so you are not exposed with harmful bacteria that can give you this flu or any other infections.


Patient: I will try that also! thank you so much. I was really worried about getting the stomach flu my whole family has been getting but now I'm feeling confident that I can do things to prevent it!

Doctor: Thank you for coming to see me today. I wish you the best with your situation. Your next steps on your journey for prevention would be to go home and check your food labels and stay away from things that seem bad for you. also when you go shopping try an all organic shop. It is a little more expensive but it is worth it if you want to stay healthy!

Patient: Thank you so much! I will make sure to try the things you taught me as soon as possible!+

Doctor: Thank you. Have a great day!

Patient: You too. Thank you!
