Use the appropriate quality improvement tools to improve the quality outcome. Describe how you could or will get involved in this initiative to make a difference and move it forward to enactment. Summarize the content in concluding statements.

 

 

Holistic health assessment

Choose an adult (65 years or older) friend or relative, perform a holistic health assessment, and discuss your discovered holistic health assessment data. Your assessment should include the following parts for the holistic assessment:

General Health History

Physiological Assessment

Psychological Assessment

Social Assessment

Cultural Assessment

Developmental Assessment

Spiritual Assessment

#2: Interpretation (Abnormality and Coping)

Choose one abnormality from the data gained in the assessments and discuss possible reasons/causes for the abnormality.

How does this abnormality impact the other areas of the patient’s life?

Discuss the client’s stress and coping mechanisms.

Are they healthy?

What recommendations and improvements could be made that are individualized for this person?

#3: Teaching Plan: Create a teaching plan that addresses the client holistically by applying the assessment data you have analyzed.

Describe at least one client goal for each of the six categories (each category should have a goal) (physical, psychological, social, cultural, developmental, and spiritual).

Discuss one strategy per goal you would use to teach your client about each individual goal

Explain how you will evaluate if your teaching was effective

Healthcare facility that had Magnet accreditation

Have you ever been involved in union organizing, collective bargaining, or worked in a union shop? If so, share your experience. If not, locate a scholarly journal article describing collective bargaining and how it works within an organization.

Have you ever worked in a healthcare facility that had Magnet accreditation or had experience with shared governance? If so, share your experience. If not, locate a scholarly journal article that describes shared governance and explain how it could be implemented in your current facility.

Leadership in the prehospital emergency care environment

Write a research paper about leadership in the prehospital emergency care environment. To support your concept of leadership, be sure to include professional, ethical, and legal frameworks that work within the paramedic’s scope of practice.

For example, the EMS Culture of Safety could be included as one of those frameworks. Your reference list (bibliography) must use a minimum of four sources. A minimum of two of the sources have to be scholarly articles and one of the sources must be an academically valid and relevant website (note that Wikipedia is NOT such a site). You may also use your textbook, if desired, as a fifth source.

Your submission must contain all of the following (in APA format):

-Cover page
-Abstract
-Research paper (600-800 words)
-References (Bibliography)

Is kinship a transactional relationship

Read the book Frankenstein and choose 3 characters and compare their understanding of kinship. For them, is kinship a transactional relationship or one of reciprocity? Do they extend kinship readily to others, or are they rigid, and exclusive?

Do they change their view of kinship over the course of the book? ? Is any of them able to feel or acknowledge other-than-human beings as kin?

As you compare the characters, ask what in their background, as the novel depicts them, might be the reasons
for their similarities and differences. Is their attitude an effect of privilege – class, gender, other?

Have they learned from adverse experiences – and has that experience opened them up or shut them down to others? Remember that secondary characters contribute insights into themes, so you need not rely exclusively on main characters.

To succeed in this assignment, do the following:
Have a clearly articulated point of view on the issue you have chosen, whether you choose the essay or the letter.
Just summarizing the text is not enough.
Carefully choose evidence from the text – don’t use quotes to summarize the plot, but rather use them to illustrate a
particular idea.
Explain the importance of details in the quotes you have provided; don’t assume it’s obvious why you’ve included the
quote.
Have a structure for your paper: whether you’re doing the letter or the comparison, break your paper into
paragraphs where you focus on a particular aspect of your issue. Don’t just move on to the thing that happens next
in the novel.
Use English for Academic Purposes: that is, check your grammar and syntax

Demonstrate understanding of minimum inhibitory concentration

Bacteria e-coli

For your culture, tell me:

What kind of bacteria is the patient colonizing (gram +/-, cocci, rod, spiral)?

Demonstrate understanding of minimum inhibitory concentration Refer to a guide for interpreting minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC)

What is the advantage of a drug with a sensitivity of <1 versus a sensitivity <20?

Based on the culture report, which drug will be best for the patient AND why? What about for a patient with multiple bacteria?

Is the drug you selected bacterial-cidal, bacterio-static, or both?

Check each other and discuss. Your group will share the final grade for this project.

Hemophilia A and Cystic fibrosis

Summarize Hemophilia A and Cystic fibrosis in terms of etiology, pathogenesis, clinical picture, diagnosis, and treatment rationale.

 

The 5 General Topics of Disease Summary
1. Etiology & risk factors
2. Pathogenesis: The molecular mechanism of the disease process (How the disease process evolves)
3. Clinical Picture: Signs& Symptoms, Sequelae, and Complications
4. Diagnosis: Labs & tests (as well as screening tests and follow-up tests whenever applicable)
5. Pathophysiologic rationale of treatment

The summary should cover the following 3 genetic diseases:

  • Hemophilia A is an example of X-linked recessive genetic disease
  • Huntington’s Disease as an example of autosomal dominant genetic disease
  • Cystic fibrosis as an example of autosomal recessive genetic disease

 

  • For each disease you need to cover topics through 5. In the above-mentioned table.
  • Etiology: talk about the gene responsible for the disease (which chromosome, the exact location of the gene on the chromosome, and the type of mutation)
  • Pathogenesis: talk about the mechanism by which the mutant abnormal gene leads to the development of the clinical picture of each disease
  • Clinical Picture: S&S, sequalae and complications of each disease
  • Diagnosis: Tests done to diagnose each disease
  • Pathophysiologic rationale of treatment: e.g we use recombinant factor VIII for treating patients with Hemophilia A since they lack that clotting factor because of a genetic mutation……and so on.

 

  • For each disease talk about the Mode of inheritance and recurrence risk: e. what’s the possibility of having normal kids/diseased kids/carrier kids…..etc
