What does it mean to say that a claim is credible?
What are some ways to evaluate a claim for credibility?
FOR EXAMPLE: OTHER PEERS RESPONSES

1. According to the interactive videos, credibility is defined as the standard of being believable (West Coast University, 2018). In order to state that a claim is credible, there must be substantive evidence that fully supports the belief or prior personal experiences, that are known from direct insight (West Coast University, 2018). The textbook suggests two different ways to identify the claims reliability, the first option is by determining if the claim lacks credibility and the second, is to properly research the source of the claim, in pursuance of verifying whether the source is deficient in credibility (Moore & Parker, 2017).

To establish a claims credibility, the content must be assessed by our own personal observations through the act of recalling past observations and knowledge, we can suspect the claims credibility (Moore & Parker, 2017). Although, this way of evaluating a claims credibility is often unreliable since there are many variables that could affect the observer’s degree of recollection like personal biases, wishful thinking, physical conditions, and mental distractions (Moore & Parker, 2017). Another way of gauging a claims credibility is by assessing the claim against our own background information, that has been proven by facts learned by others and observations (West Coast University, 2018).

By determining whether a claim is credible, there must be sources that are trustworthy because they do not have anything to gain from the belief in the claim, this is defined as a disinterested party (Moore & Parker, 2017). The source should also have real life expertise and prior knowledge to confirm that the claim that they have researched was made by the best person available, this should be done by evaluating the source’s education, accomplishments, and reputation (Moore & Parker, 2017).

2.

To identify if a claim is credible, both the claim and its sources providing credibility need to be evaluated (Moore & Parker, 2017, p. 95). Some claims are easy to dismiss simply by assessing its plausibility, which is referred to as “initial plausibility” (Moore & Parker, 2017). This would be a good first question. If there is no way the claim is plausible then there is no further consideration needed. If there is even a chance it may be plausible then further evaluation is needed, such as what is the source of the claim and what makes the source credible.

Based on the person’s “background information,” the credibility of a claim may prove simple to verify (Moore & Parker, 2017). If the claim is outside a person’s knowledge, then that is when some diligent research will be required. This is when questions like why is the source interested in the subject? Who gains or loses based on the claim? If there is any science behind the claim, then verification of the scientist’s credentials is necessary as well as the source of their funding. The answers to these questions will either strengthen or weaken the credibility of the source and inherently the claim. The evaluation process helps to determine the objectivity of the claim, which exist independently unlike subjectivity, which is based on a human’s mind (West Coast University, 2018). Regardless of the claim’s credibility, the person must decide if they will accept it as credible claim or dismiss it despite the evidence provided because of their beliefs.

ORDER A PLAGIARISM FREE PAPER NOW

Safety for elders is always an overriding concern for healthcare delivery agents since without a safe environment the elder will be injured and therefore their health will decline. Considering the environment and the lack of safety could potentially result in a fall. Fall prevention programs are always being developed for the safety of the elder in different environments. The following assignment will enlighten you as to the elements of a good, evidence-based fall prevention program.

Instructions:

You will be taking information that is already established and through the use of critical thinking, you will develop a fall prevention program for a facility in South Florida (Miami). The name of the Fall Prevention Program will be developed by yourself.
Furthermore, you will develop by yourself:
how to institute the program
the goals and interventions (such as resources needed, training required and how much it will cost)
a marketing plan
an estimated cost
Due to the need to integrate the program into the corporate structure of the institution, you will also need to plan how to present it to the Administrative team with items such as initial rollout, benefit to the institution and the cost which should be nominal so that you will be able to sell it to the A-Team.
The following information should be included:

1. Is this a Nursing Home, SNF, Hospital, etc? Select: ________________________________

2. Name of Facility: ____________________________________________________________

3. Name of Corporation: (if needed): ______________________________________________

4. Name of Falls Program: _______________________________________________________

A. Intervention list: Name at least five (5) interventions that will help reduce the number of falls. Remember interventions should all be evidence-based and a product of real research from a peer-reviewed journal article(s).

B. Training list: List some of the training that may be needed.

C. List some of the items you will need to initiate and keep the program running. (eg signs, socks, alarms, etc.).

D. The estimated cost of the program: Be realistic and remember money is precious in any facility. Also, you will need to present this as a proposal to the Administration.

E. Finally the benefit or Outcome/Goals of the program.

the questions i will be

The practice of health care providers at all levels brings you into contact with people from a variety of faiths. This calls for knowledge and acceptance of a diversity of faith expressions.

The purpose of this paper is to complete a comparative ethical analysis of George’s situation (attached is the GEORGE case study, please see) and decision from the perspective of two worldviews or religions: Christianity and a second religion of your choosing. For the second faith, choose a faith that is unfamiliar to you. Examples of faiths to choose from include Sikh, Baha’i, Buddhism, Shintoism, etc. (I would like to pick BUDDHISM)

In your comparative analysis, address all of the worldview questions in detail for Christianity and your selected faith. Refer to Chapter 2 of Called to Care for the list of questions. Once you have outlined the worldview of each religion, begin your ethical analysis from each perspective.

In a minimum of 1,500-2,000 words, provide an ethical analysis based upon the different belief systems, reinforcing major themes with insights gained from your research, and answering the following questions based on the research:

How would each religion interpret the nature of George’s malady and suffering? Is there a “why” to his disease and suffering? (i.e., is there a reason for why George is ill, beyond the reality of physical malady?)
In George’s analysis of his own life, how would each religion think about the value of his life as a person, and value of his life with ALS?
What sorts of values and considerations would each religion focus on in deliberating about whether or not George should opt for euthanasia?
Given the above, what options would be morally justified under each religion for George and why?
Finally, present and defend your own view.
Support your position by referencing at least three academic resources (preferably from the GCU Library) in addition to the course readings, lectures, the Bible, and the textbooks for each religion. Each religion must have a primary source included. A total of six references are required according to the specifications listed above. Incorporate the research into your writing in an appropriate, scholarly manner.

Prepare this assignment according to the guidelines found in the APA Style Guide

When I hear the term “Academic Integrity”, I think of high standards. I think of someone who is honest and professional and always striving to do the right thing. Some of the ways I can make sure to comply with this is to avoid plagiarism. Using the tool’s GCU has provided such as Turnitin, the reading material in this course detailing the matter, and using the APA format are just a few. Looking at all of the examples of plagiarism (intentional, unintentional, paraphrasing) coupled with citing resources properly and how to use all of the tools provided properly seemed pretty overwhelming. Having not been in the classroom environment in so long has me pretty “gun shy” about the whole process. I constantly preach to my team about ownership and taking responsibility and being honest. To inadvertently be guilty of unintentional plagiarism is something that I need to be especially mindful of.

individual, purposefully omitting credit to the original author, and incorrect referencing (“Effective writing and Research” 2018). Plagiarizing by a student can be deemed as untrustworthy, and a hazard to the public.

A baccalaureate programs integrity is affected a student who plagiarizes. When this student enters the workforce proper critical and academic strengths is not expressed through them, which reflects negatively on the program. The public perceives Nurses as well learned individual and credible. However, a dishonest nursing student who plagiarizes cannot be viewed as trustable as he or she may repeat the same error during practice. This repeated act can tarnish the profession.

The development of the nursing profession needs evidence-based practice. Plagiarism requires strict corrective measures. If a student is allowed to continuously falsify information it is a danger to the nursing profession. Imagine, if a student who continually plagiaries get involved in an evidence-based practice assignment. This student may falsify information that can lead to the harm of others. To ensure the academic integrity of my writing, I will rightly acknowledge the sources for my excerpt and use the correct APA style to cite my sources.
