Primary case questions, in general, are asked to enable you to apply course material to the case at hand. Read the questions carefully. Does it specifically ask you to apply a certain models, frameworks, or mustard covered in the course? Does it ask a question where a framework in the course would allow you to answer it well? In general, you will earn more points by applying relevant course concepts. This is not the place to just wing it and answer the question off the cuff, based on gut. APPLY the course materials to demonstrate your understanding of them and how to apply them.

What held you back? Were you concerned about your ability to succeed? Were you worried about other peoples perception of you? (Briefly describe the situation.)

If you could go back in time and redo this situation with a growth mindset, 

Nursing Essay

Why is it important to identify practice guidelines? Some of you may be questioning the relevance of exploring this topic. Simply put, clinical practice guidelines are evidence-based practice. Practices that are derived from research findings are more likely to result in desired (i.e. positive) patient outcomes across a variety of settings and geographical locations. This is the beginning of quality improvement in practice. For instance, the treatment of a patient with SVT, Heart Failure, and COPD should be the same whether we work in California, New York, or in southwest Louisiana! The care that is provided should be based on evidence for best practice.

Practice Guidelines can be a template for the care we provide. For instance, The Joint Commission (TJC) has practice guidelines for Heart Failure. These practice guidelines often become “standing orders” in cardiac care units and emergency departments. If you have worked in these areas, I am sure you have seen them. Implementation of these guidelines with every patient produces positive patient outcomes, which in turn result in decreased hospital stays, admissions, and re-admissions. Patient welfare is always a top priority for health care providers, but we also have a fiscal responsibility to the organizations we work for. Great patient outcomes mean reimbursement in sufficient amounts for the organization to operate! Its as simple as that.

Identify clinical practice guidelines or research that support the medical and nursing plan of care for the patient in the case study. In Module 2, you made a conclusion about actual and potential problems in the case based on the data clusters you created. Now you need to ensure the priority problems are being addressed in the medical plan of care. For example, you could review the American Heart Association (AHA) guidelines for the treatment of cardiac arrest or SVT, as well as the Joint Commission Core Measures for the treatment of CHF.

Evaluate medical therapy by providing a rationale for the medical orders
Identify medical orders you would question as incorrect and give a rationale
Identify missing orders for which you would need to follow up with the health care provider, and give your rationale as to why

Case Study Info:
An elderly male is transported to the emergency department after his wife calls 911 because of his increasing shortness of breath. He was evaluated in the emergency department and admitted to a medical telemetry unit.
ER Report This is a 65-year old man who was brought in by ambulance after having increasing SOB over the last 2 days. He remains a 2ppd smoker and has COPD as well as heart failure and is a type 2 diabetic as well. He is admitted with the diagnosis of supraventricular tachycardia. We gave him 20 mg Cardizem IVP and started a 1:1 infusion at 5 mg/hr. We drew electrolytes, BUN, creatinine, CBC, PT/PTT, troponin level, BNP, theophyllin level. We did a CXR and 12-Lead EKG. We put a 20- gauge angiocath in his right hand and that is where the Cardizem is running. He also had a breathing treatment with Albuterol and Atrovent. Right now he is on a 50% venti-mask with O2 Sats of 94% and he says his breathing is better. His respiratory rate is 26 and his blood pressure is 160/92. Hes now in sinus tachycardia at a rate of 100. He has crackles and wheezes throughout his lungs. He voided 400 cc yellow urine.

In your two-three page paper (not including title page or reference listing) you are required to have a minimum of three relevant sources from the UMGC Online Library for support (other than the text book). Keep in mind that whenever you use an idea from an outside source you must include a properly formatted APA Version 7 citation. You also need to have a properly formatted reference listing on the last page of the paper (reference listings go on their own page.)

EULOGY

Write a eulogy (APA format) for Achilles, Penelope, Dido, or Dante (the character who visited hell or the actual writer? You choose!). Things to include:
Where your character was born, lived, and died
The most important things your figure accomplished in his or her life
Your figures dying words (or a final speech!)
Family and friends who survive your figure
To what charity should we donate in lieu of flowers, and why was that charity important to your character? (Yes, this can be an imaginary charity!)
You will probably need to do some research on your character. Popular (non-scholarly) sources are fine, but cite EVERY source on a References page.
Show me what you have learned about this character, and have fun with this project!

Communicating a New Policy

Academic writing is different from business writing. The purpose of this assignment is to create a positive message using email for 2 different audiences and one negative message for a third audience regarding the same, sensitive topic.

Read the scenario below and communicate it to the audiences indicated in writing. This direction is coming from your supervisor, who has asked your department (the communication team) to create the written message for the employees. Remember that this is to be approached as a workplace writing task rather than an academic assignment. You will also create a follow-up communication to the mid-level management team and one to employees who will be terminated due to noncompliance.

Your message for each write-up should be 200-250 words.  You will complete each page separation between the 3 communications.

Overview

In 2020, the COVID-19 pandemic severely impacted how businesses operate and communicate. For a number of months, all company employees have been working from home. Your organization feels it is now time to create a new normal by letting employees know it is time to return full-time to the office. Your leadership feels this is important for productivity and is not making it optional for employees. The new policy elements include the following:

New Policy below

:In the new fiscal year, all employees will need to return to the office :for work.
:There will no longer be an option to work from home the entire work week.
:Employees will have the option to work from home one day per week, excluding Mondays or Fridays, providing no meetings or in-person presentations are scheduled that cannot be done through video conferencing.
:Employees who refuse to return to work will need to connect HR directly to discuss their decision.
:The organization will also begin providing daily continental breakfast and coffee in the morning for employees.
:This is a company-wide change and there will absolutely be no exceptions.
-Primary Task: Communicate to General Employee Audience

Write 1 page As part of the communication team, you are tasked with creating the messaging for this new policy change. Your manager wants the messaging to be persuasive and positive, presenting leadership in an optimistic light. While the policy update needs to be clear in messaging, the formatting approach you take for this email communication is up to your direction. Consider each of the following audiences, remembering it is critical this written communication via email is clear and concise.

Follow-Up Task: Communicate to Midlevel Managers

In addition to the above primary task, you also need to communicate via email suggested talking points to the midlevel managers who will need to implement the policy and field questions from their staff.

1 page Separation Communication Task: Communicate to Noncompliant Employees

For your final task, create a professional email communication to inform a group of employees that their employment with the organization will be terminated as a result of noncompliance with the new policy change that was previously implemented.

1 page Reflection

The Christian faith seeks to exercise compassion, justice, and concern for the common good.  In your communication responses you developed, how do you believe one or more of these principles is evident

Discussion Post

You are a counselor working at a publicly funded alcohol and drug treatment program. Your client, Doug, attends one of your counseling groups. Although he has a previous conviction and is on probation for possession of an illegal substance, he entered treatment as a voluntary client. Doug’s probation officer recently learned from another probationer that Doug is in treatment, and the officer has sent you a letter requesting that you provide a progress report and an assessment of Doug’s likelihood of relapse. The probation officer will use this information, if favorable, to petition the court for Doug’s early release from probation.

Discuss your options for responding to the probation officer’s request and describe what you would do.
Cite relevant legal issues, including federal confidentiality and privacy regulations in your discussion.
Identify the specific circumstances under which you would provide the information requested by the probation officer.
How would you handle this differently if Doug were involuntarily attending the group?
Remember, we neither confirm nor deny that Doug is a client.
