• CO1 Utilize prior knowledge of theories and principles of nursing and related disciplines to explain expected client behaviors, while differentiating between normal findings, variations, and abnormalities. (PO 1)
• CO3 Utilize effective communication when performing a health assessment. (PO 3)
• CO4 Identify teaching/learning needs from the health history of an individual. (PO 2)

After watching the video, and reflecting on the information presented, address each of the following questions.

1. What are the common symptoms associated with an exacerbation of COPD?
2. What assessment techniques will you use to assess Mary?
3. Identify smoking strategies that would be appropriate for each of the encounters that Mary had with the nurse throughout the video that could have been used to assist Mary in quitting smoking.
4. Find a resource in your community that could assist Mary. Start by searching the Internet for your local health department’s website. What services are available to Mary? Briefly describe the services that the state quit line provides. Does it meet the 4 As? Is it accessible, acceptable, affordable, or available for Mary?
5. What will you do to follow-up on Mary’s smoking cessation process?

National Patient Safety Goals

One of the tenets of health informatics is the transition of data to wisdom, as depicted in Figure 2.6 in your textbook. In an APA formatted paper address the following:

· Access the Joint Commission website (www.jointcommission.org) national patient safety goals for Ambulatory Health Care, Behavioral Health Care, or Hospitals, and review the national patient safety goal on reconciling medication information. The types of information that clinicians use to reconcile medications includes (among others) medication name, dose, frequency, route, and purpose).

· Examine how organizations assess data, information, knowledge and wisdom to support this patient safety goal. 

· Outline the steps for addressing the medication reconciliation safety goal, by identifying and explaining the steps of the practice-based evidence approach.

· Include a minimum of two scholarly resources, other than the textbook, to support your response. 

  

1-My definition of spiritual care is being there for someone. An ear for someone to speak to. Sometimes it’s not what you say, it’s about you being there, supporting someone. Other times it might mean to offer some advice or support if they are struggling with something. My idea of spiritual care is similar to the description in chapter 14 Called to Care: A Christian Worldview for Nursing. In this chapter, spiritual care is stated as, “Sometimes spiritual care means simply being present, praying, sharing from Scripture, offering a word of witness and encouragement or participating in a healing service. At other times it may include arranging referrals, planning   creative strategies for follow-up care in the home or helping a person become connected to a Christian community.” Depending on how spiritual the individual is or how appropriate the situation is, a short prayer might help someone a great deal. There might be times when you might have to get more involved in their care if needed.

2-I think that as long as I am not harming anyone in the process of accommodating these spiritual needs than there isn’t much I can think of that I would not be willing to do. 

Also, if it would result in me losing my job than I probably wouldn’t do it. I say that because I’m pretty sure I’ve done things that are not allowed or that I could technically lose my job for when accomodating someone’s needs. Examples include sneaking someone’s dog in the building before they went into a high risk surgery and going on a walk outside with someone so they could smoke a cigarette and calm down before the police arrived to take her report on an assault. 

If I had lost my job for either of those things than it would 100% have been worth it. 

 

 
 

3-This course and the discussion of spirituality and religion and how it influences our health has really had me thinking about how we spend our day. In the ER, things are a little different than on the floor as far as the time we get to spend with our patients due to quick turnover. However, the case remains the same. Sometimes all that our patients need is someone to talk to and listen to them. Occasionally we become so task oriented because we have so much to do, but slowing down and allowing our patients to feel our presence, feel comforted and not rushed can make all of the difference in how they perceive their care.  

 

 

hi dear,

can help me to finish this assignment with good quality and be on time please?

  

Review the text for this week (Chapter One) of this book Community Health Education Methods: A Practical Guide, 3rd Edition on various theories utilized in health promotion: The Health Belief Model, The Transtheoretical Model, Social Cognitive Theory, and the Diffusion of Innovation Theory.

· Identify and discuss the theory you understood the most and discuss why. Identify the theory you understood the least and discuss why. 

· Then, using the web, research the theory you least understood.  Specifically, locate a peer-reviewed journal article describing an application/intervention of the theory to a specific target population.

o Describe the application and outcome of the application/intervention to your colleagues.

o How did the research intervention use the theory to modify participant behavior? Explain and describe.

o Include the link to the application/article in the primary discussion post.

Sources: 

· In addition to the text, you are required to use at least TWO additional sources from government reports, peer-reviewed journal articles, additional textbooks.

· Use your OWN WORDS (e.g., do not cut and paste from a government report or article). 

·  Paraphrase (use your own words) to report the information.

· Include APA formatted in-text citations to identify your sources AND include full APA formatted references for your sources at the end of your post.

Thanks,
