Case study #1 

Mrs. Franklin-Jones was admitted from the Emergency Room to Cardiac Intensive Care one week ago with a diagnosis of acute myocardial infarction. She has recovered as expected and is moving to the cardiac step down unit today. She is talking with Nurse Julie Hernandez, as she gets settled in her new room, “I was really surprised when I got that bad pain in my chest! I knew I had high pressure but I just didn’t think it was that bad. I try to take my medicine like they told me to in the clinic but sometimes I forget. I guess that I need to study those papers they gave me about what foods I should eat and not eat. I better take care of myself! Momma had bad pressure and it killed her! Who knows—I may even have to learn to cook different than I was taught in Jamaica! I may have to let Tomas do the cooking. He’s got more time at home now than I do since he lost his job. There isn’t too much time between my shifts at the school cafeteria and my new housecleaning job. You know my sister is coming up from Jamaica to see me. I think she is bringing me some bush tea. That’ll set me right!”

• Using Leininger’s Culture Care Model, what factors in the story shared by Mrs. Franklin-Jones should be considered by Nurse Hernandez when planning for the patient’s discharge?
• Why is the theory of Culture Care Diversity important in the delivery of nursing care for all patients?
• Using Leininger’s Theory of Culture Care Diversity and Universality, develop a plan of care for Mrs. Franklin-Jones.
• Discuss the strengths and limits to Leininger’s Theory.

Case Study #2

Claude Jean-Baptiste is recovering from post-hip replacement surgery and has been transferred to the Rehabilitation Institute adjacent to the hospital. When he enters the unit, he sees welcoming signs written in several languages including his own, Creole. Since there are no nurses on that shift that speak Creole, they use a language line to ask for translation services. During this initial nursing assessment, the translator informs Mr. Jean-Baptiste that the nurses invite him to have a relative at his side so that they can be sure to understand and meet his needs. He is asked about Haitian customs and beliefs that they might honor. Mr. Jean-Baptiste is encouraged to bring food and spiritual care items, and to share the warmth of his culture with the nursing staff.

• Discuss assumptions of the Transpersonal Caring relationship. What is the nurse’s role?
• How is love, as defined by Watson, evident in this caring moment?
• How can the nurse creatively use self to create a healing environment?
• Discuss the strengths and limits to Watson’s Theory.

This paper should include 2 outside references and your book. The essay should be between 1500 and 1750 words in length.

 TopicAre Multivitamins really better than eating a healthy diet?

Paper details

The  assignment is to write the method and results sections of a research  paper based on the topic. You need to find a few sources related to the  topic. You can use as many sources as you want as long as they are  scholarly. Sources of original research are preferable Each of the two  sections needs to be 350-600 words. I will attach the full assignment  instructions here. 

 This assignment builds on the previous assignment.  Using assignment 2 as a basis, you work individually to conduct further analysis, integrate theory into your analysis, and discuss your findings.  You should begin with the transcript, coding and analysis you completed for Assignment 2.

REMEMBER: EACH TRANSCRIPT IS HEADED BY A RESEARCH QUESTION.  IT IS IMPORTANT THAT YOU FRAME YOUR ASSIGNMENT AROUND THIS RESEARCH QUESTION.

Your assignment should contain the following components:

1. A document name and header on each page of your assignment which makes clear which topic you have chosen.
   This helps us allocate assignments more quickly for marking.
2. A short introduction which outlines the topic of your transcript and refers to published research relevant to the research question.
   Keep this fairly brief – around 500 words should be adequate.
3. Description and discussion of the key findings from your analysis.
   Bearing in mind the research question associated with your transcript, you should integrate the following things in this section:

– describe the themes you have identified through your analysis and how they relate to each other,
– provide example quotations from your transcript,
– locate your analysis to a theoretical framework/position, and
– link your findings to the literature.

Try to integrate the description of themes, quotations, theory and literature in this section so that your discussion flows from one key idea to another. 

1. A short conclusion.
   Again, keep this brief – around 200 words should be enough to summarise your key findings.
2. A reference list.
   At least 10 references (including references related to your research question, your methods of coding, your theoretical perspective and relevant literature) will be appropriate.
3. Your coding document.
