Assignment 1: Case Study Assignment: Assessment Tools and Diagnostic Tests in Adults and Children – 2025

When seeking to identify a patient’s health condition, advanced practice nurses can use a diverse selection of diagnostic tests and assessment tools; however, different factors affect the validity and reliability of the results produced by these tests or tools. Nurses must be aware of these factors in order to select the most appropriate test or tool and to accurately interpret the results.

Not only do these diagnostic tests affect adults, body measurements can provide a general picture of whether a child is receiving adequate nutrition or is at risk for health issues. These data, however, are just one aspect to be considered. Lifestyle, family history, and culture—among other factors—are also relevant. That said, gathering and communicating this information can be a delicate process.
 

For this Assignment, you will consider the validity and reliability of different assessment tools and diagnostic tests. You will explore issues such as sensitivity, specificity, and positive and negative predictive values. You will also consider examples of children with various weight issues. You will explore how you could effectively gather information and encourage parents and caregivers to be proactive about their children’s health and weight.

To Prepare

  • Review this week’s Learning Resources and consider factors that impact the validity and reliability of various assessment tools and diagnostic tests. You also will review examples of pediatric patients and their families as it relates to BMI.
  • By Day 1 of this week, you will be assigned to one of the following Assignment options by your Instructor: Adult Assessment Tools or Diagnostic Tests (option 1), or Child Health Case (Option 2). Note: Please see the “Course Announcements” section of the classroom for your assignments from your Instructor.
  • Search the Walden Library and credible sources for resources explaining the tool or test you were assigned. What is its purpose, how is it conducted, and what information does it gather?
  • Also, as you search the Walden library and credible sources, consider what the literature discusses regarding the validity, reliability, sensitivity, specificity, predictive values, ethical dilemmas, and controversies related to the test or tool.
  • If you are assigned Assignment Option 2 (Child), consider what health issues and risks may be relevant to the child in the health example.
    • Based on the risks you identified, consider what further information you would need to gain a full understanding of the child’s health. Think about how you could gather this information in a sensitive fashion.
    • Consider how you could encourage parents or caregivers to be proactive toward the child’s health.

for MADAM-PROFESSOR – 2025

  

Many of the taken-for-granted ideas about the capabilities, personalities, talents, etc. of women and men have been considered innate, natural or unchangeable.  Yet, gender definitions and expectations have changed continuously over the long course of history.  In looking at U.S. families today, where do we see increasing equality or recognition of “sameness” between husbands and wives, mothers and fathers, and what macrosocial changes, e.g., in the labor force, in education, in the division of family labor, have encouraged these changes?  What has held them back?

The text of the answer should be at least 250 words in length to get into the kind of depth you need. Include the source(s) in APA style after the text of the post

Training Session for Policy Implementation – 2025

 

Develop a training plan for one of the role groups in the organization that will be responsible for implementing practice guidelines under the new organizational policy you presented in Assessment 3. Prepare an agenda for a two-hour workshop, and summarize your strategies for working with this group, the expected outcomes of the training, and why you chose this group to pilot the change.

Introduction

Note: Each assessment in this course builds on the work you completed in the previous assessment. Therefore, you must complete the assessments in this course in the order in which they are presented.

Training and educating those within an organization who will be responsible for implementing and working with changes in organizational policy is a critical step in ensuring that prescribed changes have their intended benefit. A leader in a health care profession needs to be able to apply effective leadership, management, and educational strategies to ensure that colleagues and subordinates will be prepared to do the work that is asked of them.

As a master’s-level health care practitioner, you may be asked to design training sessions to help ensure the smooth implementation of any number of initiatives in your health care setting. The ability to create an agenda that will ensure your training goals will be met, and will fit into the time you are allotted, is a valuable skill for preparing colleagues to be successful in their practice. This assessment offers you an opportunity to develop and implement such strategies.

Demonstration of Proficiency

By successfully completing this assessment, you will demonstrate your proficiency in the following course competencies and assessment criteria:

  • Competency 2: Analyze relevant health care laws and regulations and their applications and effects on processes within a health care team or organization.
    • Explain an institutional policy or practice guidelines that will be implemented.
  • Competency 3: Lead the development and implementation of ethical and culturally sensitive policies that improve health outcomes for individuals, organizations, and populations.
    • Justify the importance of an institutional policy or practice guidelines to improve the quality of care or outcomes related to a specific group.
    • Develop materials that support learning and skill development to enable a group to be successful in applying a policy or practice guidelines to its work.
  • Competency 5: Develop strategies to work collaboratively with policy makers, stakeholders, and colleagues to address environmental (governmental and regulatory) forces.
    • Develop strategies for engaging with a specific group to ensure buy in, support, and preparedness to implement changes in policy and practice guidelines.
    • Advocate for the importance of the role a specific group will play in implementing changes in policy and practice guidelines.
  • Competency 6: Apply various methods of communicating with policy makers, stakeholders, colleagues, and patients to ensure that communication in a given situation is professional, clear, efficient, and effective.
    • Interpret complex policy considerations or practice guidelines for a specific group with respect and clarity.
    • Write clearly and logically, with correct use of grammar, punctuation, and spelling.
    • Integrate relevant sources to support arguments, correctly formatting citations and references using current APA style.

Preparation

Your policy proposal presentation secured buy in and support from the stakeholder group you addressed. They are enthusiastic about implementing your proposed policy and practice guidelines. In an effort to help ensure a smooth rollout and implementation of your proposal, senior leaders have asked you to create and lead a training session for one of the role groups in the organization that will be responsible for enacting the new policy and practices.

In addition, senior leaders have asked you to develop and submit a training plan for review and approval before conducting the requested training session. They have also requested that you cite 2–4 credible sources that support your proposed training strategies, your intended approach to generating buy in and support from the group, and your plans for working with the group to facilitate implementation of the policy and practice changes.

As outcomes of this training session, participants are expected to:

  • Understand the organizational policy and practice guidelines to be implemented.
  • Understand the importance of the policy to improving health care quality or outcomes.
  • Understand that, as a group, they are key to successful implementation.
  • Possess the necessary knowledge and skills for successful implementation.

It may also be useful to have worked through the Organizational Ethics Decision-Making Process in Health Care | Transcript activity. It may give you some ideas about strategies for ensuring your policy and implementation ideas are incorporating ethical considerations.

You may also find it useful to have checked your knowledge in the Training Session Best Practices activity before completing your assessment.
