Overview of the sections of the Scholar-Practitioner Project:

Disease surveillance is an essential part of public health. It provides valuable information to public health officials, allowing them to detect and prevent the spread of disease. In your Scholar-Practitioner Project, you create a disease surveillance system to monitor HIV/AIDS.. The assignments in this course, including the assignment due this week (described below), all represent sections of a Scholar-Practitioner Project that you will submit in its final form in Week 10. Each week (except Week 7) you will complete a brief assignment and submit it for grading and feedback. Each component is due by Day 7 of its respective week. Be sure to use your Instructor’s feedback on each submission to revise it before incorporating it into your final Scholar-Practitioner Project.

(READ THIS SECTION BECAUSE THIS WHAT WAS INCLUDED IN PREVIOUS WORK)

In Week 1, (HISTORY OF SURVEILLANCE) you write a analyzing the influence that specific historical events have had in the evolution of disease surveillance systems. In addition, you forecast the next phase(s) in disease surveillance and explain how the changes that you predict will impact public health policy and practice.

In Week 2, (Surveillance Subject and Data Sources)   you write about identifying the disease or condition that is the focus of your surveillance system. In addition, you evaluate potential data sources and processes associated with collecting and analyzing the data you identify.

In Week 3, (Traditional vs. Syndromic Surveillance)  you write about analyzing the practical ramifications of identifying, collecting, validating, and analyzing data for syndromic surveillance. In addition, you compare your analysis to traditional disease surveillance.

In Week 4 (Algorithm)  you write about explaining the algorithm of your surveillance system, including the strengths and limitations of the algorithm to monitor disease.

In Week 5, (Digital Dashboard)  you create a mock-up of a “digital dashboard” for your disease surveillance system.

In Week 6 (System Comparison)  you write about  analyzing and comparing modern disease surveillance systems implemented at the local, state, regional, and national levels used to monitor the disease or condition you selected.

In Week 8 (Tele-health) you write about analyzing the implications of tele-health for the surveillance of the disease/condition you selected and describe how you could incorporate tele-health into your surveillance system.

In Week 9 , you write about  that provides an overview of a selected country and condition or disease.

In Week 10, you submit your completed Scholar-Practitioner Project. It will consist of sections submitted in previous weeks, revised to reflect your Instructor’s feedback, as well as several new components.

Assignment: The Impact of Standardized Nursing Terminology

Among the Resources in this module is the Rutherford (2008) article Standardized Nursing Language: What Does It Mean for Nursing Practice? In this article, the author recounts a visit to a local hospital to view the recent implementation of a new coding system.

During the visit, one of the nurses commented to her, “We document our care using standardized nursing languages but we don’t fully understand why we do” (Rutherford, 2008, para. 1).

How would you respond to a comment such as this one?

To Prepare:

• Review the concepts of informatics as presented in the Resources, particularly Rutherford, M. (2008) Standardized Nursing Language: What Does It Mean for Nursing Practice?
• Reflect on the role of a nurse leader as a knowledge worker.
• Consider how knowledge may be informed by data that is collected/accessed.

The Assignment:

In a 2- to 3-page paper, address the following:

• Explain how you would inform this nurse (and others) of the importance of standardized nursing terminologies.
• Describe the benefits and challenges of implementing standardized nursing terminologies in nursing practice. Be specific and provide examples.
• Be sure to support your paper with peer-reviewed research on standardized nursing terminologies that you consulted from the Walden Library.

The needs of the pediatric patient differ depending on age, as do the stages of development and the expected assessment findings for each stage. In a 500-750-word paper, examine the needs of a school-aged child between the ages of 5 and 12 years old and discuss the following:

1. Compare the physical assessments among school-aged children. Describe how you would modify assessment techniques to match the age and developmental stage of the child.
2. Choose a child between the ages of 5 and 12 years old. Identify the age of the child and describe the typical developmental stages of children that age.
3. Applying developmental theory based on Erickson, Piaget, or Kohlberg, explain how you would developmentally assess the child. Include how you would offer explanations during the assessment, strategies you would use to gain cooperation, and potential findings from the assessment.

Prepare this assignment according to the guidelines found in the APA Style Guide, located in the Student Success Center. An abstract is not required.
