Global Healthcare Comparison Matrix and Narrative Statement

If you talk about a possible poor health outcome, do you believe that outcome will occur? Do you believe eye contact and personal contact should be avoided?You would have a difficult time practicing as a nurse if you believed these to be true. But they are very real beliefs in some cultures.Differences in cultural beliefs, subcultures, religion, ethnic customs, dietary customs, language, and a host of other factors contribute to the complex environment that surrounds global healthcare issues. Failure to understand and account for these differences can create a gulf between practitioners and the public they serve.In this Assignment, you will examine a global health issue and consider the approach to this issue by the United States and by one other country.To Prepare:Review the World Health Organization’s (WHO) global health agenda and select one global health issue to focus on for this Assignment.Select at least one additional country to compare to the U.S. for this Assignment.Reflect on how the global health issue you selected is approached in the U.S. and in the additional country you selected.Review and download the Global Health Comparison Matrix provided in the Resources.The Assignment: (1- to 2-page Global Health Comparison Matrix; 1-page Plan for Social Change)Part 1: Global Health Comparison MatrixFocusing on the country you selected and the U.S., complete the Global Health Comparison Matrix. Be sure to address the following:Consider the U.S. national/federal health policies that have been adapted for the global health issue you selected from the WHO global health agenda. Compare these policies to the additional country you selected for study.Explain the strengths and weaknesses of each policy.Explain how the social determinants of health may impact the global health issue you selected. Be specific and provide examples.Using the WHO’s Organization’s global health agenda as well as the results of your own research, analyze how each country’s government addresses cost, quality, and access to the global health issue selected.Explain how the health policy you selected might impact the health of the global population. Be specific and provide examples.Explain how the health policy you selected might impact the role of the nurse in each country.Explain how global health issues impact local healthcare organizations and policies in both countries. Be specific and provide examples.Part 2: A Plan for Social ChangeReflect on the global health policy comparison and analysis you conducted in Part 1 of the Assignment and the impact that global health issues may have on the world, the U.S., your community, as well as your practice as a nurse leader.In a 1-page response, create a plan for social change that incorporates a global perspective or lens into your local practice and role as a nurse leader.Explain how you would advocate for the incorporation of a global perspective or lens into your local practice and role as a nurse leader.Explain how the incorporation of a global perspective or lens might impact your local practice and role as a nurse leader.Explain how the incorporation of a global perspective or lens into your local practice as a nurse leader represents and contributes to social change. Be specific and provide examples

response to classmate week 5

Respond to at least two of your colleagues’ postings offering suggestions of other theoretical or conceptual frameworks that may be appropriate for his or her Doctoral Study topic.this is my classmate work that need critiqueThe Doctoral Study topic I have chosen can be viewed as a social/research problem and a healthcare administration problem across many healthcare organizations in the country.  Effective communication is a vital element in all areas of health care and can enhance the patient experience and increase patient satisfaction scores, which in turn, can increase a hospital’s bottom line.   The issue that prompted me to search the literature is that communication failures between nurses, doctors, and patients negatively affect a patient’s perception of care.  The specific research problem that will be addressed through my study is that communication failures between nurses, doctors, and patients decrease patient satisfaction scores (HCAHPS) and impact a hospital’s bottom line.  However, despite the fact that academics have looked into this topic, there is little or no literature on the influence communication has on the patient experience, patient satisfaction ratings (HCAHPS), and the bottom line of a hospital (Davidson et al., 2017).However, it is well-known that hospital patient satisfaction ratings, as measured by the Hospital Consumer Assessment of Healthcare Providers and Systems (HCAHPS), have played a significant role in hospital payment via the Hospital Value-Based Purchasing Program. A hospital’s HCAHPS ratings will determine how much money it will get in reimbursements, and the better the score a hospital receives, the greater the reimbursement. Reduced patient satisfaction and reduced Medicare funding are two ways that poor HCAHPS ratings have an influence on a hospital’s bottom line. First, they harm the hospital’s reputation among customers, and second, they reduce Medicare funding (Detwiler & Natalie, 2020).The Swanson Caring Theory (SCT), the Carolina Care Model (CCM), and the Caring Attribute Diagnostic Model (CADM) will be used to support my study.In addition to serving as the basis for hundreds of research investigations, the SCT theoretical framework also serves as a theoretical underpinning for the nursing care given at clinical facilities across the globe. Swanson’s Caring Theory describes five caring processes: knowing, being with, acting for, enabling, and preserving belief in the person you are caring for (McKelvey, 2018). The SCT was made a reality at the University of North Carolina Health System with the creation of the CCM (Ray & Stargardt, 2020).CCM is a program that supports particular behavioral interventions that combine nursing behaviors with caring processes in order to improve the patient’s overall experience (Ray & Stargardt, 2020). I also collaborate closely with Deb Stargardt, one of the CCM’s original creators, and help with the teaching of CCM and the SCT across the Johnston UNC Healthcare system. Using the SCT framework as a guide, CCM connects particular interventions such as the moment of caring, hourly rounds, no-passing zone, words and methods of communication that are effective, and the blameless apology with SCT processes such as knowing, being with, acting for, and enabling. Staff attentiveness to patients’ needs and nurses’ and physicians’ communication are both indicative of SCT processes of knowing and Being With. When asked about communication with nurses and communication with physicians, patients’ responses reflect their opinions of attentive listening, easily intelligible explanations and polite, respectful interactions with their healthcare providers. A growing body of research suggests that empathy and trust are critical in the commencement of supportive, interpersonal communications when they are lacking (Ray & Stargardt, 2020).HCAHPS items and global questions may be examined via the lens of SCT using the CADM, which offers specific actions that boost perceptions of care processes, caring qualities, and patient well-being. Each HCAHPS question (item) and domain is mapped to one of the five SCT processes in the diagnostic model. As a result of this alignment, the CADM grows into SCT subdimensions of practical behaviors that aid perceptions of SCT qualities such as compassion, competence, and well-being. The top box scores from the HCAHPS domains are averaged to provide a composite score for each characteristic in order to help prioritize improvement actions (Ray & Stargardt, 2020).

response to classmate discussion 2

During a student’s progress through each term, there is a requirement for developing term plans of which are made up of term goals to meet a satisfactory status. According to the Walden University Office of Research and Doctoral Services (n.d.), term plans are required to be submitted for final approval in week 1 and 2 of each term. More specifically, term goals are to be submitted during week 1 of each term for initial review. If approved, no furth action is required however, resubmission can be done in week 2 if further revision is necessary. As explained in the DHA Doctoral Study Guidebook, students are required to meet each of the term goals to receive a Satisfactory grade for the term. Term goals, as mentioned above, are due week 1 and 2 of each term and must be approved by the student’s chair. If the student fails to submit and receive approval of term goals, they will receive a U for that term.Another important consideration for students to have, involves the three major milestones of term plans. According to the Walden University Office of Research and Doctoral Services (n.d.), the initial term plan outlines what the student will achieve in that term. The students chair will approve the initial term plan which covers the expected outcome of the 11 weeks. In efforts to ensure the student is on track to meet the goals of the initial term plan, a mid-term review is conducted (Walden University Office of Research and Doctoral Services, n.d.). Although changes to initial term plans rarely occur, possible modifications can be made during the mid-term review if circumstances support the need. At the end of the term, a final term plan is completed. For a student to successfully receive a satisfactory rating for the term, the chair must note term goals as being met.Reply to at least two students’ initial postings providing feedback on the SMART goal or feedback you would like to provide about information to help them succeed with term plan development.please make suggestions about my classmate critiqueSetting appropriate goals for each term is vital to a student’s overall success and therefore, processes such as using the SMART approach can assist students. According to Paul (n.d.), the acronym SMART stands for Specific, Measurable, Attainable, Realistic, and Timely. The purpose of using the SMART approach for setting goals is to ensure the student has a framework to promote focus on achieving results. This framework can be used during the initial term plan process to ensure the student sets appropriate goals.An example of a SMART term plan goal for my DHA Doctoral Study Prospectus Term 1 is:This term, I will read and identify the 3 credible sources justifying the need for my research problem and follow the 5-step process for identifying an appropriate DHA research topic.This is an appropriate term goal for the Prospectus Term 1 since it is specific and measurable to the term requirements. Further, it is attainable, realistic as well as timely.

6512 Assignment Wk 4

Assignment 1: Differential Diagnosis for Skin ConditionsProperly identifying the cause and type of a patient’s skin condition involves a process of elimination known as differential diagnosis. Using this process, a health professional can take a given set of physical abnormalities, vital signs, health assessment findings, and patient descriptions of symptoms, and incrementally narrow them down until one diagnosis is determined as the most likely cause.In this Assignment, you will examine several visual representations of various skin conditions, describe your observations, and use the techniques of differential diagnosis to determine the most likely condition.To prepare:· Review the Skin Conditions document provided in this week’s Learning Resources, and select one condition to closely examine for this Assignment.· Consider the abnormal physical characteristics you observe in the graphic you selected. How would you describe the characteristics using clinical terminologies?· Explore different conditions that could be the cause of the skin abnormalities in the graphics you selected.· Consider which of the conditions is most likely to be the correct diagnosis, and why.· Download the SOAP Template found in this week’s Learning Resources.To complete:· Choose one skin condition graphic (identify by number in your Chief Complaint) to document your assignment in the SOAP (Subjective, Objective, Assessment, and Plan) note format, rather than the traditional narrative style. Refer to Chapter 2 of the Sullivan text and the Comprehensive SOAP Template in this week’s Learning Resources for guidance. Remember that not all comprehensive SOAP data are included in every patient case.· Use clinical terminologies to explain the physical characteristics featured in the graphic. Formulate a differential diagnosis of three to five possible conditions for the skin graphic that you chose. Determine which is most likely to be the correct diagnosis and explain your reasoning using at least 3 different references from current evidence based literature.Links:http://www.skinsight.com/professionalshttps://www.aafp.org/afp/2010/0315/p726.htmlhttps://www.aafp.org/afp/2010/0315/p735.html

How often do you engage with or witness death in your work? How has this experience or the lack of it shaped your view of death? Has it gotten easier or harder for you to accept the fact of death? As you explain, include your clinical specialty.

Off Label Drug Use

When treating children, prescribers often adjust dosages approved for adults to accommodate a child’s weight. However, children are not just “smaller” adults. Adults and children process and respond to drugs differently in their absorption, distribution, metabolism, and excretion.Children even respond differently during stages from infancy to adolescence. This poses potential safety concerns when prescribing drugs to pediatric patients. As an advanced practice nurse, you have to be aware of safety implications of the off-label use of drugs with this patient group.To PrepareReview the interactive media piece in this week’s Resources and reflect on the types of drugs used to treat pediatric patients with mood disorders.Reflect on situations in which children should be prescribed drugs for off-label use.Think about strategies to make the off-label use and dosage of drugs safer for children from infancy to adolescence. Consider specific off-label drugs that you think require extra care and attention when used in pediatrics.By Day 5 of Week 11Write a 1-page narrative in APA format that addresses the following:Explain the circumstances under which children should be prescribed drugs for off-label use. Be specific and provide examples.Describe strategies to make the off-label use and dosage of drugs safer for children from infancy to adolescence. Include descriptions and names of off-label drugs that require extra care and attention when used in pediatrics.

Thoughts

What are your thoughts??The Christian concept of imago Dei is that “God created human beings to have a likeness to his character, not a likeness to his literal physical appearance” which helps “provide the basis for human dignity and worth” (White, 2020). Imago Dei also implies that “human being are more than simply bodies” (White, 2020). This concept emphasizes the importance of individuals being both physical and spiritual individuals.This concept is important to health care because it focuses on the need to treat patient’s holistically. They need to be treated physically (of course), spiritually, emotionally and mentally throughout their health care experience. This concept is a constant reminder to treat individually holistically because they are much more than just their physical illness. Imago Dei is relevant in healthcare because there are times that nurses and other health care staff can forget to treat patients holistically. It is easy to get busy with doing what we have to do to keep our patient alive, well and on the road to recovery that we forget that they need more that physical help. I have seen nurses in my experience completely forget about all aspects besides physical care and yes of course they were still well taken care “medically” not all their needs were met during their hospitalization because of failure to provide holistic care. There is many factors that go into caring for individuals completely and giving them the best care and support during their health care experience.ReferenceWhite, N. (2020).
