We will continue to evaluate Fred and his health in this second case
study.
From the first case study:
Fred is a 56 year old, single male. He is employed in sales and
spends a great portion of his day either behind his desk making calls
or in his car. Fred has a base salary but depends on sales for
commission. He has a limited income and attempts to use finances
wisely. Due to his schedule, he has few friends and little leisure time.
He relays that he has been diagnosed with high blood pressure and
has a family history of cardiovascular disease.
In a typical day, Fred sets his alarm for 7 am and tries to get to the
office by 8:30. He always drives through a donut shop and picks up a
blueberry muffin and a large latte.
For lunch he packs a bologna sandwich, a bag of Corn chips and a
Cola and eats at his desk.
After making calls and finalizing several deals, he leaves the office
around 6 pm. Several times a week, he meets clients for dinner. Today
he is having dinner with a couple of guys at a local steak house.
After dinner and a business session, he returns home around 10
pm. Fred is exhausted but decides to unwind and watch the nightly
news before bed.
This is Fred’s second visit and you complete an assessment.
