Risk Management Implementation and the Regulatory Environment – 2025

 Topic 1 DQ 1

Accreditation is extremely important in healthcare. Accreditation refers to the official review process that allows healthcare organisations to demonstrate the ability to meet official regulatory standards and requirements. Accreditation is awarded upon successful completion of an on-site survey. The on-site survey is conducted by a specially trained Joint Commission surveyor or team of surveyors who assess your organization’s compliance to our standards. Accreditation for most types of organizations is a three year award. The exception is laboratory accreditation, which is a two year award.

Cambridge Behavioral Hospital was placed on probationary status on November 25, 2019 after Ohio Mental Health and Addictional Services (OMHAS) concludet investigation on death at the hospital and six complaints about sexual abuse and allegation. The report cited serious deficiencies found during the OMHAS on-site investigation related to failure to obtain medical clearance, lack of medical history and assessment, lack of medical oversight by a psychiatrist and failure to obtain medication informed consent of a psychiatric patient. The state agency has determined the Cambridge facility cannot treat patients until issues are corrected.

Denial of Accreditation is recommended when there’s an immediate threat to health and safety, a submission of falsified documents or misrepresented information, a lack of a required license, or significant noncompliance with Joint Commission standards.

 Explain the role of accreditation in mitigating risk compliance issues.  Provide an example of a health care organization that was placed on probation by its accrediting body or by CMS within the last 3 years for a risk compliance issue. What caused the probation or loss of accreditation and how could it have been prevented?

Nursing Professionalism – 2025

 1 DQ 3

In the state of New York, certain professionals are fit for the role of mandated reporter of child abuse and maltreatment. If the abuse is not reported, the professional that did not report it would be held responsible, in both a civil and criminal manner. All health care professionals are required by New York State law to report suspected child or adult abuse that they may come across in their professional setting. According to NYC.gov, if a mandated reported comes across any reasonable cause to suspect abuse or neglect, it is the mandated reporters responsibility to report the abuse or cause the abuse to be reported, through your supervisor. The reasonable cause is viewed as assessments that the health care professional performed and trust the health care professional’s judgment. Certain important information needed to make a report is the name and address of the patient and family members, the patient’s age, sex, and primary language, nature of the injuries, type of abuse/neglect, and any additional information that was helpful. If a abused patient is discovered during initial assessment, the patient’s safety is ensured first, by removing any factors that may cause the patient harm, such as abusive family members or heath care workers. Next the supervisor and social worker on the patient’s case would be notified. Thirdly, the patient is more thoroughly assessed to uncover any other signs of abuse. Finally, the patient is not allowed to leave until the police arrive and the report is filed properly.

  Review your state’s mandated reporter statute. Provide details about this in your post. If faced with a mandated reporter issue, what are the steps in reporting the issue? Create a mandated reporter scenario and post it. Respond to one of your peer’s scenarios using the guidelines for submission/reporting in your state. Be sure to include a reference to your state’s website related to mandated reporting.

nursing assessment – 2025

  

1st part home work

While interviewing and examining a 17-year-old male, you discover a white patch on his buccal mucosa and slanting palpebral fissures in his eyes. He also states during the interview that he plays baseball and is hoping to earn an athletic scholarship to college.

· What do you suspect? What kind of client teaching is appropriate in this situation?

· Discuss appropriate educational materials for health promotion and disease prevention

· When would slanting palpebral fissures be normal?

· While performing a retinal examination on this patient, you discover that the margins of the optic disc become blurred and indistinct. What further testing would be required? Why?

Second part student post/I needs answer to this post base on the homework

Week 2 physical assessment 17 year old

Joh

Symptoms and Treatment

       Buccal mucosa is the inner lining of the lips and cheeks. Presence of white patches in the mouth of the patient could be as a result of irritation of the walls of the mouth cavity. This white patch is hard to come off and mainly attaches itself to the buccal mucosa. This condition is prevalent in tobacco and alcohol users. The patient is probably a smoker; if this is true, he needs to desist from smoking to avoid further irritation of the mouth walls which is a good disease prevention measure. Most teenagers of the patient’s age are likely to engage in smoking an activity which they do as fun. The patient should find other alternatives to smoking such as taking snacks and being with the right company in sports to ensure he succeeds in his quest of securing a scholarship.

      The palpebral fissure is the meeting point of the lower and upper eyelids. Slanting of palpebral fissures occurs normally on Asians which is a probable indication of the patient’s descent. The slanting of palpebral fissures is prevalent in people suffering from downs syndrome which has not been stated by the patient. More than 80% of the patients with Down’s syndrome suffer from palpebral fissure (“Down Syndrome (Trisomy 21)”, 2018).
