A 15-Year-Old Boy Has Come In For A Sports Physical After Testing Positive For Covid Two

A 15-year-old boy has come in for a sports physical after testing positive for Covid two months ago. He is coughing and has asthma but is not on maintenance medications. He has indicated that he doesn't want to take medication every day.  Write a detailed one-page narrative (not a formal paper) explaining the health assessment information required for a diagnosis of your selected patient (include the scenario number). Explain how you would respond to the scenario as an advanced practice nurse using evidence-based practice guidelines and applying ethical considerations. Justify your response using at least three different references from current evidence-based literature.
