Instructions:Nurse scholars have claimed that nursing is both a discipline and a profession. In order to understand these claims, we must first know what it means for nursing to have a “unique body of knowledge.” If we assume that nursing does, indeed, possess a unique body of knowledge, we can claim that nursing is a “basic science,” rather than an “applied science.” Despite these claims, debate continues about nursing as discipline, profession, and science. Is nursing a discipline? A profession? Is nursing a basic science and/or applied science? In your initial post, state what you think about nursing as discipline, profession, and science. Explore the literature beyond that assigned to you for this week’s readings to help you formulate your position. Include your reference(s) in both your initial post and your reply posts. You should include the following:What is a discipline? What is a profession? What’s the difference? What are examples of each?Does nursing fit the criteria for a “discipline” and “profession”?What is a “basic science”? What is an “applied science”? What’s the difference?Is nursing a “basic” or “applied” science? Support your statements with scholarly references. You may use those from the assigned readings on the course Blackboard site, but you must also select and use (via your literature search) a minimum of 1 reference outside of assigned readings. 
Present your posts and replies in a professional, scholarly manner. Use the APA publication manual to format citations and references.
Please follow the instruction and answer all question.

Question: Choose a borrowed theory and apply its framework to an advanced nursing issue (i.e., hostility in the workplace, instituting bedside reporting, and shared leadership).

Additional Info from Instructor:

This is your topic for TD2 and we will be meeting the following PO:

Analyze theories from nursing and relevant fields with respect to their components, relationships among the components, logic of the propositions, comprehensiveness, and utility to advanced nursing. (PO #1)

Key Concepts:

· Categories commonly used to organize nursing theories and how a theory fits into the category.

Choose a borrowed theory and apply its framework to an advanced nursing issue (i.e., hositlity in the workplace, instituting bedside reporting, and shared leadership).

Question with Sample Answer Janine was hospitalized with severe abdominal pain and placed in an intensive care unit. Her doctor told the hospital personnel to order around-the-clock nursing care for Janine. At the hospital’s request, a nursing services firm, Nursing Services Unlimited, provided two weeks of in-hospital care and, after Janine was sent home, an additional two weeks of at-home care. During the at-home period of care, Janine was fully aware that she was receiving the benefit of the nursing services. Nursing Services later billed Janine $4,000 for the nursing care, but Janine refused to pay on the ground that she had never contracted for the services, either orally or in writing. In view of the fact that no express contract was ever formed, can Nursing Services recover the $4,000 from Janine? If so, under what legal theory? Discuss

Evolution of Professional Nursing and Culturally Diverse

Assignment 2: Evolution of Professional Nursing and Culturally Diverse Workforce Analysis
of RA1:
In this module, we looked at the evolution of the nursing profession and how it relates to the continued issue of achieving a culturally diverse workforce. Despite our progress in moving toward a culturally diverse nursing workforce, efforts are needed to achieve nursing workforce diversity to meet patient care needs. The report produced by the Sullivan Commission on Diversity in the Healthcare Workforce (2004) provided a framework from which one can understand nursing workforce diversity issues. In particular, it provided a way to systematically review issues surrounding the historical context of nursing workforce diversity, why increasing workforce diversity is important, how we might achieve a more diverse workforce and how it may be paid for, and who is accountable for achieving the diversity goal.
Tasks:
Use the derived Sullivan Commission Report framework to describe and analyze nursing workforce diversity in a workplace of your choice. The framework is given in the bulleted list below.
Support your analysis with references. You must reference at least three nursing journal articles that are not from your reading assignment. Additionally, you may cite documents from the Module 1 reading assignments.
Protect workplace and personal identifiers in the completion of your assignment
