Imagine you are creating a community health promotion resource that addresses a cardiovascular subject of your choosing. You are creating this tool for a segmented population of health care consumers.

Create an informational tool (350 to 700 words) in the form of one of the following:

• Podcast
• Summary
• News transcript
• Brochure/pamphlet
• Video
• Interview
• Other option approved by your instructor

Include the following in your resource: 

• Identify the disease or subject of focus.
• Identify the population.
• Focus your information on the specific cultural beliefs of the population that you have chosen and how treatment and management of the disease might be affected by these aspects.
• Explain how this disease and the management of it affect resources in society.

.

The practice of health care providers at all levels brings you into contact with people from a variety of faiths. This calls for knowledge and understanding of a diversity of faith expressions; for the purpose of this course, the focus will be on the Christian worldview.

Based on “Case Study: End of Life Decisions,” the Christian worldview, and the worldview questions presented in the required topic study materials you will complete an ethical analysis of George’s situation and his decision from the perspective of the Christian worldview.

Provide a 1,500-2,000-word ethical analysis while answering the following questions:

1. How would George interpret his suffering in light of the Christian narrative, with an emphasis on the fallenness of the world?
2. How would George interpret his suffering in light of the Christian narrative, with an emphasis on the hope of resurrection?
3. As George contemplates life with amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS), how would the Christian worldview inform his view about the value of his life as a person?
4. What sorts of values and considerations would the Christian worldview focus on in deliberating about whether or not George should opt for euthanasia?
5. Given the above, what options would be morally justified in the Christian worldview for George and why?
6. Based on your worldview, what decision would you make if you were in George’s situation?

Remember to support your responses with the topic study materials.

Healthcare ethics, also referred to as medical ethics or bioethics, is a set of moral principles, beliefs, and values that guide us in making choices about medical care. In the United States, there are four main principles that define the ethical duties healthcare professionals owe to patients: (1) Autonomy, (2) Beneficence, (3) Nonmaleficence, and (4) Justice.

Define and discuss these four principles. In your discussion, provide a healthcare related example of each principle (you can provide an example of either preserving or neglecting).

 

Week 2: Carbs, Culture, and Diabetes

In this discussion, you will consider the following information prior to responding with your post.

In order to fully understand Hannah’s situation, please first answer the following:

• When are carbohydrates good for us?
• What are “good” versus “bad” carbohydrates?
• When are they not good for us or our bodies?
• What chemistry is involved in their breakdown, usage, and storage?

After you have discussed this, consider Hannah and Rose’s situations and think like a nurse!

Hannah is a 12-year-old who has had Type I diabetes for a few years. Her mother, Rose, is a strict vegetarian and believes this is also the best diet plan for her daughter. Hannah says, “I just want to eat like all my friends do!” As a result, she often cheats, and lately, there has been a steady increase in Hannah’s blood sugar.

What are the first steps you would take, as Hannah’s nurse, to assess her eating habits and understanding of diabetes mellitus?

What did Hannah and Rose tell you (subjective) and what did you see (objective)?
