Diversity And Health Assessments
/in Uncategorized /by JosephIn this Discussion, you will consider different socioeconomic, spiritual, lifestyle, and other cultural factors that should be taken into considerations when building a health history for patients with diverse backgrounds.
Case 1
JC, an at-risk 86-year-old Asian male is physically and financially dependent on his daughter, a single mother who has little time or money for her father’s health needs. He has a hx of hypertension (HTN), gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD), b12 deficiency, and chronic prostatitis. He currently takes Lisinopril 10mg QD, Prilosec 20mg QD, B12 injections monthly, and Cipro 100mg QD. He comes to you for an annual exam and states “I came for my annual physical exam, but do not want to be a burden to my daughter.”
Case 2
TJ, a 32-year-old pregnant lesbian, is being seen for an annual physical exam and has been having vaginal discharge. Her pregnancy has been without complication thus far. She has been receiving prenatal care from an obstetrician. She received sperm from a local sperm bank. She is currently taking prenatal vitamins and takes Tylenol over the counter for aches and pains on occasion. She a strong family history of diabetes. Gravida 1; Para 0; Abortions 0.
Case 3
MR, a 23-year-old Native American male comes in to see you because he has been having anxiety and wants something to help him. He has been smoking “pot” and says he drinks to help him too. He tells you he is afraid that he will not get into Heaven if he continues in this lifestyle. He is not taking any prescriptions medications and denies drug use. He has a positive family history of diabetes, hypertension, and alcoholism.
To prepare:
· Reflect on your experiences as a nurse and on the information provided in this week’s Learning Resources on diversity issues in health assessments.
· Select one of the three case studies. Reflect on the provided patient information.
· Reflect on the specific socioeconomic, spiritual, lifestyle, and other cultural factors related to the health of the patient you selected.
· Consider how you would build a health history for the patient. What questions would you ask, and how would you frame them to be sensitive to the patient’s background, lifestyle, and culture? Develop five targeted questions you would ask the patient to build his or her health history and to assess his or her health risks.
· Think about the challenges associated with communicating with patients from a variety of specific populations. What strategies can you as a nurse employ to be sensitive to different cultural factors while gathering the pertinent information?
Post
Post an explanation of the specific socioeconomic, spiritual, lifestyle, and other cultural factors associated with the patient you selected.

MN576 Discussion Board Peer Response: Primary Care And Disease Affecting Women
/in Uncategorized /by JosephNo plagiarism please.
Will need minimum of 150 words for each response, APA Style, double spaced, times new roman, font 12, and and Include: (1 reference for each response within years 2015-2018) with intext citations.
Discuss a primary care-focused visit devoted to wellness and or disease affecting women and health-enhancing strategies that you would include in the visit.
Peer 1 Response
One primary care-focused visit devoted to wellness is the annual wellness visit (AWV). Components of this visit should include updating immunizations and suggesting needed immunizations, blood pressure checks to screen for hypertension, obesity counseling if needed, and any counseling for tobacco and alcohol use. Also important is doing a functional status review, screening for fall risk and cognitive abilities for seniors (Adler, 2017). If the patient were a senior with a chronic problem it would be good to do problem-focused physical exam and explore any patient concerns, if any. The Medicare Annual Wellness Visit is still an underutilized benefit for seniors, even though it can offer many benefits to increase a person’s preventive care. According to (Harvard Men’s Health Watch, 2017), this visit does not focus on a physical exam, but is instead a conversation with your health care provider about important health issues. This visit provides time for the patient to plan with their health care provider a healthy future. Other health-enhancing strategies focused on in this visit are a vision test, to detect if the patient needs glasses, a stronger prescription, or have signs of an eye disease. A balance test will be done to help gauge the risk for falls, as well as a hearing evaluation to see if the patient would benefit from a formal hearing test.
Another part of the AWV is developing a personalized plan to address ways the patient can stay active and maintain their current health. One primary care assessment that should be done at every visit is a depression screening. This doesn’t have to be a long questionnaire, the Patient Health Questionnaire (PHQ-2) is a good screening tool. It consists of just 2 questions from the PHQ-9. If the patient screens positive with the PHQ-2, the full PHQ-9 can be completed. According (Fuchs, Haradhvala, & Uebelacker, 2015), the PHQ-2 has demonstrated strong validity and high sensitivity for detecting major depression in primary care.
Peer 2 Response
Women’s health care is a detailed visit that is focused on many different aspects of care. For example, women need education on special topics at all ages of life. One of the major concerns for aging women is osteoporosis. Osteoporosis is a disease of the bones that occurs when there is bone loss, or the body makes too little bone, or both loss and decreased production (NOF, 2018). This conditon causes bones to become extremely fragile, which increases the risk of fracture. Fractures can occur following a fall or injury, or in severe cases even from a minor bump to the area (NOF, 2018). Osteoporotic bones have a honeycomb appears due to the loss in bone density. For women over 50, the risk of osteoporosis increases and the provider should order a bone density scan to monitor the structure of the bone. Bone density scans are the only diagnostic testing for osteoporosis prior to a broken bone (NOF, 2018). The diagnostic test for bone density is done through x-ray called a Dexa Scan. Dexa stands for dual energy x-ray absorptiometry. (NOF, 2018). Dexa scans should be conducted every 1-2 years depending on patient history and risk factors. The Dexa scan results are determined by a T-score. Normal T-score results are -1.0 and anything above -1.0 are mild to severe osteoporosis (NOF, 2018). One of the medications used to treat osteoporosis is Actonel. Actonel is an oral medication that is taken daily. The mediation is designed to slow bone loss and even help to prevent fractures. (Actonel, 2017). One of the side effects that needs to be discussed with patients is that is can cause GI upset, so it the patient has a history of GI issues, another medication is most likely the better option.

Essential Of Evidence Base Practice
/in Uncategorized /by JosephIs there a difference between “common practice” and “best practice”?
When you first went to work for your current organization, experienced colleagues may have shared with you details about processes and procedures. Perhaps you even attended an orientation session to brief you on these matters. As a “rookie,” you likely kept the nature of your questions to those with answers that would best help you perform your new role.
Over time and with experience, perhaps you recognized aspects of these processes and procedures that you wanted to question further. This is the realm of clinical inquiry.
Clinical inquiry is the practice of asking questions about clinical practice. To continuously improve patient care, all nurses should consistently use clinical inquiry to question why they are doing something the way they are doing it. Do they know why it is done this way, or is it just because we have always done it this way? Is it a common practice or a best practice?
In this Assignment, you will identify clinical areas of interest and inquiry and practice searching for research in support of maintaining or changing these practices. You will also analyze this research to compare research methodologies employed.
To Prepare:
Part 1: An Introduction to Clinical Inquiry
Create a 4- to 5-slide PowerPoint presentation in which you do the following:
Part 2: Identifying Research Methodologies
After reading each of the four peer-reviewed articles you selected, use the Matrix Worksheet template to analyze the methodologies applied in each of the four peer-reviewed articles. Your analysis should include the following:

Have you had an experience when evidence-based research had a significant impact on the quality of your patient care that resulted in policy making
/in Uncategorized /by JosephWeek 1/ Discussion topic 2
Part 1 my post
Have you had an experience when evidence-based research had a significant impact on the quality of your patient care that resulted in policy making?
Nursing includes settling on troublesome decisions. All through your nursing profession, you will experience chances to have a capable effect in your patients’ lives, and by utilizing evidence-based practice, you can unfathomably enhance their personal satisfaction. Tolerant care must be founded on the most recent evidence-based practice. Understudy medical attendants ought to be acquainted with the standards of this as a feature of pre-enrollment training. As indicated by Kaplan, expanding competency in data education is the establishment of evidence-based practice; this gives nurture the abilities to be proficient purchasers of data in an electronic domain. It is fundamental for medical attendants to have the capacity to assess the quality of the evidence so they can decide how suitable it is. To pick up a more noteworthy comprehension about utilizing evidence with regards to human services, we need to consider what considers evidence. Perusing and understanding examination, monitoring current strategies and systems, and thinking about the proposals and benchmarks in practice are all piece of the medical caretaker’s part (Barker J, 2010).
There are clear issues featured in the writing that need assist talk. What are the difficulties for nurture instructors? What is the connection between graduate instruction and evidence-based practice? What are the difficulties for nursing understudies? Encouraging a culture of evidence-based practice in nursing is basic to conveying viable social insurance. It is basic that the medical attendant educational programs grant key information on consolidating diverse sorts of the accessible evidence base into clinical practice. It is additionally critical to comprehend that evidence-based practice ought to consider information that has been liable to testing and observed to be dependable and comes from an assortment of sources. This will build up understudies’ certainty to illuminate proficient practice, which will prompt the arrangement of individualized patient care (Dale AE, 2006).
Evidence exists to educate and manage practice instead of direct it this message must be comprehended. Medical caretaker teachers need to guarantee they work in association and keep up associations with practice regions so as to accomplish this. The connection between graduate instruction and evidence-construct practice puts an accentuation with respect to responsibility and has prompted the requirement for exceedingly unmistakable, very much examined rules for practitioners in wellbeing and social care to take after. The duty of advanced education establishments, doctor’s facility trusts, and essential care trusts is to guarantee that, through instruction; principles are created and kept up by wellbeing experts. Evidence can’t be utilized as a part of the nonattendance of clinical judgments or affirmation of the patients’ qualities, concerns, and inclinations. Support and direction must be given to encourage and create understudy nurture with the goal that they can investigate writing keeping in mind the end goal to perceive the best accessible evidence (Department of Health, 2008).
Advances in IT have radically affected social insurance conveyance and medical attendant instruction. The utilization of refined gear and electronic appraisal mind bundles expect medical attendants to be equipped in IT aptitudes. The test for understudy medical caretakers is to convey nursing consideration to people in view of the best accessible evidence keeping in mind the end goal to guarantee that great care is given. This is fundamental in educating understanding decision in the arranging and basic leadership process. Rycroft-Malone et al (2003) recognize that keeping in mind the end goal to practice evidence-based, individual-focused care, practitioners need to draw on and incorporate different wellsprings of propositional and non-propositional learning, which has been educated by an assortment of evidence bases that have been fundamentally and openly examined. A key explanation behind receiving this ethos is to encourage, create and cultivate a scrutinizing approach, which consolidates the four standards of human services morals depicted by Beauchamp and Childress as helpfulness, non-wrongdoing, self-sufficiency and equity (Nicholas D et al, 2005).
To utilize evidence to support practice without assessing its viability is foolhardy. Wellbeing instruction foundations have an obligation to urge understudy medical attendants to advance and convey evidence-based practice from the beginning of preparing. In the scholastic setting, this is energized and is achievable. Incorporating evidence-based practice into ordinary practice is a need if viable patient care is to be given; this idea is upheld by current enactment. Evidence-based practice ought to be seen as an essential piece of CPD and included as continuous instruction for medical caretakers, especially in the field of the initiative. Medical attendants as pioneers should utilize evidence-based practice and show others how it’s done to guarantee that patients get excellent care (Royal College of Nursing, 2007).

Strategic Planning: SWOT Analysis and Goals
Details:
Strategic planning within organizations provides a plethora of benefits to the organization including meeting goals specified in the plan and contributing to the long-term success of an organization. Refer to Exhibit 8.3: The Strategic Management Process, located in Chapter 8 of the Management textbook.
For this assignment, select either your own organization or one you know enough about to complete a series of assignments related to strategic planning for a proposal you would like to implement. The same organization will be used in the following assignments:

Once you have selected the organization, identify a strategic goal through preforming a SWOT analysis within your sphere of influence.

If you are a classroom teacher, perhaps you see opportunities for improving access to technology in your district. If you are a nurse, perhaps you see opportunities to improve communication processes in your department, etc.
A SWOT analysis is part of strategy formulation that leads to goal setting and then progresses to the development of a strategic plan. Be sure to follow the criteria for effective goals as illustrated to Exhibit 7.5, located in Chapter 7 of the Management textbook.
Complete a SWOT analysis using the “SWOT Analysis” template. Consider the following guiding questions as you complete the SWOT Analysis:

2. What does your identified area do better than other companies?
3. What unique capabilities or resources does you identified area possess?
4. What do other companies consider to be your strength?
5. What are the recognized weaknesses of your identified area?

12. What is the competition doing that may have an impact on your identified area?
13. Does your identified area have solid financial support?
14. What impact does your weakness have on the threats your identified area faces?
These questions are samples of what you may need to address in your SWOT Analysis. Using the SWOT analysis results, develop at least one strategic goal. Submit both the completed SWOT analysis document and the strategic goal.
