Assignment#4A

In nursing practice, accurate identification and application of research is essential to achieving successful outcomes. Being able to articulate the information and successfully summarize relevant peer-reviewed articles in a scholarly fashion helps to support the student's ability and confidence to further develop and synthesize the progressively more complex assignments that constitute the components of the course change proposal capstone project.

 

For this assignment, the student will provide a synopsis of eight peer-reviewed articles from nursing journals using an evaluation table that determines the level and strength of evidence for each of the eight articles. The articles should be current within the last 5 years and closely relate to the PICOT statement developed earlier in this course. The articles may include Quantitative Research, Descriptive Analyses, Longitudinal Studies, or Meta-Analysis Articles.

A systematic review may be used to provide background information for the purpose or problem identified in the proposed capstone project. Use the "Literature Evaluation Table" resource to complete this assignment.

 

While APA style is not required for the body of this assignment, solid academic writing is expected, and in-text citations and references should be presented using APA documentation guidelines, which can be found in the APA Style Guide, located in the Student Success Center.

 

This assignment uses a rubric. Please review the rubric prior to beginning the assignment to become familiar with the expectations for successful completion.

Risk & Needs Assessment

Risk & Needs Assessment 

•What is the purpose of a risk and needs assessment?

 •Are these assessments necessary?

 

Why or why not? 

 Provide thorough, well-developed descriptions to demonstrate your understanding of these topics. In your initial post, you should refer to both the assigned course readings for the week as well as at least one source you located elsewhere that either helps define or explain the concepts being discussed in this forum.  

   Here is an example ! 

DO NOT USE SYNONYMS 

    Risk and needs assessments are used to estimate a youth's risk of recidivating. The findings can assist in developing treatment to reduce the youth's likelihood of reoffending. Risk and needs assessments also helpful in developing a plan that provides treatment or services that is helpful to the juvenile.  Risk instruments are screening devices that forecasts future delinquent conduct or criminality. For example: A juvenile with abusive parents may be at risk for reoffending; therefore, a service can be offered to assist the parents in developing parenting skills. A judge could also determine the juvenile's home is not safe and order the child to be placed in another home or program.  Needs assessments is an instrument that assesses juvenile offenders social, psychological and mental health needs and then make decisions such as: showing a juvenile leniency, sending a juvenile to a diversion program, or referring the juvenile to formal processing.  There are concerns that risk/needs assessments may contribute to the racial disparities and disproportionate minority contact (DMC) observed in the juvenile justice system. A person's criminal history or prior offense has always served as an indicator of re-offending; however, research on the DMC has shown that minorities are more likely to come into contact with the juvenile justice system soThe likelihood of a juvenile that is a minority of having a history of criminal behavior or a prior offense is higher. In essence, a prior offense may reflect the juvenile was targeted because of his or her race, socioeconomic status, gender and/or age.  A juvenile that is considered to pose a great risk of committing a future crime is a prime candidate for a harsher sentence.  The danger in risk predictions is a juvenile who is suspected of being dangerous or posed a greater risk of re-offending may actually turn out not to be dangerous or may never re-offend whereas, a juvenile who did not appear to be dangerous and did not pose a risk of re-offending may actually turn out to be dangerous or re-offend. This is known as a false positive and false negative.

Fiscal And Personnel Module 4 Discussion 7

Module 4 Discussion

 
 
 

Discussion: Staffing Decisions

In Chapter 7 of your course text, the authors lay out a series of guidelines and suggested procedures for directors to follow as they recruit, interview, and hire candidates for positions in their child development centers. In this Discussion, you will consider this information in addition to your own prior knowledge in determining “best practices” for child development center staffing. Reflect on the following:

  • Based on what you learned this week and your own experiences, what would you consider best practices for the director of a child development center to follow when hiring and making staffing decisions? Specifically:
    • Who would you invite to be on the hiring committee? Why?
    • What specific questions would you ask during interviews, and why?
    • How would you handle disagreements among members of the hiring committee with regard to candidates (e.g., two members prefer a candidate with a strong educational background, and two others prefer a candidate with a friendly disposition)? Who would make the final decision, and why?

With these thoughts in mind, follow the instructions below to post your response to this Discussion topic.

By Day 3 of Week 7:
Post a description of what you consider to be best practices for staffing a child development center, with particular respect to who ideally should be on the hiring committee, specific questions that should be asked during the interview (at least three), and how disagreements among members of the hiring committee should be handled. Be sure to include a rationale explaining the reasons behind your ideas.

By Day 7 of Week 8:
Read a selection of your colleagues’ postings. As you read their responses, note those to which you would like to respond with advice, questions, comments, and/or encouragement.

Respond to two or more of your colleagues’ postings in any of the following ways:

  • Build on something your colleague said.
  • Explain why and how you see things differently.
  • Ask a probing or clarifying question.
  • Share an insight from having read your colleague's posting.
  • Offer and support an opinion.
  • Validate an idea with your own experience.
  • Expand on your colleague's posting.
  • Ask for evidence that supports the posting.

Return to this Discussion in a few days to read the responses to your initial posting. Reflect on what you learned in this activity and/or insights you gained this week.
