1. Palliative care is an immensely important topic for nurses and there are plenty of jobs available.  there is a great demand that far exceeds supply which means that the salaries are high and getting better all the time.  this is a special kind of nursing also where the connection with the patient is very personal and patients need an enormous amount of empathy to get through this difficult stage of life.  there are many companies locally that hire nurses, both small and large.  Vista is an example of a large company and they cover all three countries. 
   Instructions:
   1. Review the Ethical Practices in EOL Care module.
   2. Read the first few pages describing the content
   3. On page 5 are a series of short Case Studies (10 total). Each case study has multiple questions after it. Answer each question after reading the case study. You can utilize Chapter 27 in your textbook to answer the questions.
   4. When you are finished answering all 10 case study questions, check your answers at the end of the document.
   5. You may probably miss a couple of questions. Go back, read the case study again and correct your answer.
   6. Write your reflection(s) about why you answered incorrectly. Do this with at least two questions that you answered incorrectly. You can do more if you feel so inclined.
   7. Your paper should be:
      • One (1) page or more.
      • Use factual information from the textbook and/or appropriate articles and websites.
      • Cite your sources – type references according to the APA Style Guide.

Research is something we all do in both our personal and our professional lives. We research products we might buy, films or books we might watch or read, restaurants and hotels we might patronize, medical issues and doctors, and much more. At work, we research companies we might want to work for or with, products we might want to use, computer issues we face, and so on.

• Think back over the past few months and give at least one example of research you have conducted for yourself and for work. If you cannot think of one from each category, you may give two from the same category.
• Tell us whether you were able to find the information that you needed and explain if the information proved to be accurate.
• Discuss what types of source materials you are using for your research paper (telehealthcare in nursing homes), and list one of the sources that you plan to use.
• Tell your classmates how that source relates to your chosen topic (telehealthcare in nursing homes) and what information you plan to use from that source.

Self-awareness is the honest understanding of one’s own emotions, values, motivation, goals, and strength and weaknesses. Self-awareness allows us to understands these things while knowing what causes them and how we react to them. Leaders who have self-awareness are able to mange their behavior, improve with communication and interactions, and increase their influence on the team members. The more a leader is self-aware the more influential they will be with their team which leads to better performance from the team they lead.

Self-awareness leaders will demonstrate empathy and compassion. They can really relate to others emotions and are genuinely concerned about others. Leaders are role
models. They inspire and encourage others to accomplish something of value and to make a difference in others people’s lives. Leaders able to face challenging events and will come up with solutions to fix the challenging events while staying calm and cool throughout the situation (Knight, n.d).

I see this day in and day out at my hospital, as we are in the process of remodeling and improving patient safety. The contractors that are working in our hospital know that we are on a time schedule but appeared to not understand or don’t care. But we as mangers and leaders are holding them accountable for every day that they do accomplish the work that we have been told that will be done. I, myself, do notice that I am firmer with them than my administration is. I am firm because I manage a psychiatry unit and I actually am seeing what is and is not being done on the floor. Patient safety is my main concern along with staff and their safety. Some of the contractors actually get that they are in psychiatry department but some do not and do not consider the safety of the unit.

Huber discusses personal leadership skills that are important for all great leaders to possess including self-awareness, self-management, social awareness and relationship management (Huber, 2014).  An active leader is also flexible, empathetic, and understands multiple leadership skills. These leadership skills include having emotional intelligence and the ability to understand it in others. The skills are essential concepts to understand and master to become not only a leader but also a nursing leader (Huber, 2014). Self-awareness, an element of emotional intelligence, is when a person can understand own feelings and emotions and how these emotions can influence and affect those around them (Huber, 2014). Working as a nurse leader self-awareness means to be aware and understand how own attitude and emotions can influence and affect the employees that one is leading.

It means knowing own values, personality, needs, habits, emotions, strengths, weaknesses. To become more self-aware, we should develop an understanding of ourselves in many areas. Critical areas for self-awareness include our personality traits, personal values, habits, emotions, and the psychological needs that drive our behaviors. Individual leaders who can regulate their own emotions are better equipped to provide a holding environment for the people who work for and with them, creating a culture where people feel at ease.

In our highly competitive culture, this might seem counterintuitive. In fact, many of us operate on the belief that we must appear as though we know everything all the time or else people will question our abilities, diminishing our effectiveness as leaders. If one is honest with self, one admits that the opposite is true. Because whether one acknowledges own weaknesses or not, everyone still sees them. So rather than conceal them, the person who tries to hide weaknesses openly states them, for example by telling “I do not know. How have you done it in here?”

Self-awareness helps managers identify gaps in their management skills, which promotes skill development. However, self-awareness also helps managers find situations in which they will be most effective, assists with intuitive decision making, and aids stress management and motivation of oneself and others.
