Competing needs arise within any organization as employees seek to meet their targets and leaders seek to meet company goals. As a leader, successful management of these goals requires establishing priorities and allocating resources accordingly.

Within a healthcare setting, the needs of the workforce, resources, and patients are often in conflict. Mandatory overtime, implementation of staffing ratios, use of unlicensed assisting personnel, and employer reductions of education benefits are examples of practices that might lead to conflicting needs in practice.

Leaders can contribute to both the problem and the solution through policies, action, and inaction. In this Assignment, you will further develop the white paper you began work on in Module 1 by addressing competing needs within your organization.

To Prepare:

• Review the national healthcare issue/stressor you examined in your Assignment for Module 1, and review the analysis of the healthcare issue/stressor you selected.
• Identify and review two evidence-based scholarly resources that focus on proposed policies/practices to apply to your selected healthcare issue/stressor.
• Reflect on the feedback you received from your colleagues on your Discussion post regarding competing needs.

The Assignment (4-5 pages):

Developing Organizational Policies and Practices

Add a section to the paper you submitted in Module 1. The new section should address the following:

• Identify and describe at least two competing needs impacting your selected healthcare issue/stressor.
• Describe a relevant policy or practice in your organization that may influence your selected healthcare issue/stressor.
• Critique the policy for ethical considerations, and explain the policy’s strengths and challenges in promoting ethics.
• Recommend one or more policy or practice changes designed to balance the competing needs of resources, workers, and patients, while addressing any ethical shortcomings of the existing policies. Be specific and provide examples.
• Cite evidence that informs the healthcare issue/stressor and/or the policies, and provide two scholarly resources in support of your policy or practice recommendations.

Online Environment

 A significant challenge for online learning environments is to create a sense of community between peers and instructors. One method to achieve this is for instructors to share their authentic selves and stories with their students (Bristol & Zerwekh, 2011). Discussion forums offer the opportunity for instructors and learners to demonstrate their individuality without face-to-face interaction. Andragogy, or the study of adult learning, says that adults learn best when the content is relevant to their lived experience and when there is the opportunity for interaction between peers (Bradshaw & Hultquist, 2017). Relationship building is also crucial for instructor satisfaction, as well.  Smith and Crowe (2017) found that instructors were more satisfied when they had the opportunity to get to know their students. For the reasons above, utilization of video presentation of the instructor and use of discussion forum will allow a more personal experience of the online learning environment.

Classroom Management

            Nursing students are busy people who juggle many demands at once: family, work, and school, among other things. Students generally do not participate in optional ungraded assignments because of their time constraints (Bristol & Zerwekh, 2011). One strategy for classroom management is to decrease the feeling that students are doing busywork. This requires giving credit, in the form of points toward their grade, for their efforts.

            In order to head off problems with netiquette, the nurse educator needs to lie out expectations for interacting in the online environment. This can include basic recommendations such as using a professional writing style that does not include short-hand or abbreviations (Bristol & Zerwekh, 2011). In the online environment, incivility is increasingly a problem that interferes with learning. Social media sites are often the forum for incivility between instructor and student. De Gagne, Yamane, Conklin, Chang, and Kang (2018) recommend implementing policies and guidelines in order to avoid unprofessional conduct in the nursing school environment.

Peer 1 

Tobacco Free Florida refers to the Florida’s education program that aims at helping tobacco users quit. The program includes helpful strategies, facts about nicotine as well as motivational information that powerfully encourages a tobacco-free life (Tobacco Free Florida, n.d.). Meanwhile, a range of media channels plays an increasingly important role in promoting the mentioned program. More specifically, social media sites, such as Facebook and Twitter, are extremely popular today, especially among the younger generation, which creates a comprehensive platform for raising awareness about the issue at hand and advertising the program’s website (Jane, Hagger, Foster, Ho, & Pal, 2018). Zika Free Florida is another program that provides help and consultation to prevent development of Zika, disease that develops due to a mosquito-borne virus. Instagram and YouTube are another powerful tool to promote the agenda. The format of a video can have a significant effect upon a viewer evoking a strong emotional response. Instagram presents a visually appealing source of receiving information that is readily used by many users around the world, especially by those who like to travel to foreign countries and do not know what exactly one should expect.  

Childhood obesity is another important public concern that requires special attention in health policy development. Promoting awareness about the peril associated with childhood obesity is pivotal for maintaining the nation’s health and decreasing the burden of chronic diseases. Social media campaigns may help in this regard. Again, the use of Instagram may trigger the interest of policymakers, while providing parents with the necessary material aids (Edney et al., 2018). It should be noted that such social media as YouTube and Facebook may serve as a source of social support.The posts and videos in media challenge may contain information about the ramifications related to childhood obesity, which can help a user make a change in their lives. They may illustrate examples of how others have already achieved positive results, thereby increasing individual’s awareness about the effective strategies and health promotion techniques (Mason, Gardner, Outlaw, 2016). Users see that they are not alone with this program and may track each other’s progress getting inspired and motivated. Thus, social media can be considered as an active agent in raising awareness and encouraging to make a positive change in one’s lifestyle or environment.

This is the original question if you needed to see what is about 

Reflect on Florida’s current health education programs such as Zika Free Florida, Tobacco Free Florida and consider what part the media plays in such disease prevention programs. Identify a specific public health issue that you believe needs to be highlighted in health policy and based on your textbook readings discuss how social media can be used as a health promotion tool to improve public awareness on the selected topic.
