Case Study, Chapter 8, Unlicensed Assistive Personnel and the Registered Nurse 

The increased use of unlicensed assistive personnel presents both opportunities and challenges for the American health care system. The nurse manager has to deal with the challenge that unlicensed assistive personnel only be used to provide personal care needs or nursing tasks that do not require the skill and judgment of the RN.

1. The nurse manager reviews the national effort to define the scope of practice for unlicensed assistive personnel. In 2007, the American Nurses Association made recommendations for a national and/or state policy for nursing assistive personnel. What are the six actions that should be taken to create a national and/or state policy agenda about the educational preparation of unlicensed assistive personnel and the competencies they should have for safe practice?

2. The need in health care today is for today’s nurses to have highly developed delegation skills in working effectively and efficiently with unlicensed assistive personnel. This is critical to ensure the clients’ needs are met and their safety is not jeopardized. What are the key general principles that the nurse manager needs to review with professional registered nurses in delegating to unlicensed assistive personnel?

There are many factors a person can consider that young males could hear and help improve overall health. One for example and the most simple one is the use of protection during sex or contraception. Having unsafe sex contributes to the decreased health of women and children, it could be the woman having problems with birth or lack of support necessary to be able to support a newborn baby and the same goes for a baby, they need a lot of time and effort and sometimes unsafe sex leads to unwanted children and so the baby will receive not receive the support or attention needed to be cared for properly. Understanding how important it is to be safe and using protection could help again the decreased health of these groups and would benefit a lot. Something else young males can learn to improve overall health is to understand the negative effects of drugs and alcohol use, drug use is something that affects the world and many people aren’t educated on how harmful it can really be. To ask for no use of these harmful drugs is not what I am asking for but instead to educate young males and others to understand what it is they are doing and in educating them on the negatives hopefully they can see how important it is to take care of yourself and those around them and they could lower their usage or even stop entirely if possible to unhealthy addictions. The third and final factor that young males and even most teenagers and adults could address is the lack of physical activity that leads to obesity. Simply exercising a little would help towards fixing some issues and of course not all of them but it is a big step towards working together to achieve the goal of overall health.

Limitations and Implications ( example)

This study suffered some limitations. First, no laboratory study to measure whether the patient has IBS or not was found. The diagnosis of IBS was based on a patient’s subjective report about their symptoms The patient had to undergo several tests to rule out that the patient did not have other diseases; thus, according to the signs and symptoms, the doctor then diagnosed whether s/he suffered from IBS. It is for this reason that in the articles investigated, the researcher only found qualitative information offered by patients based on their symptoms. Secondly, the articles analyzed used small samples in their investigations, so the results obtained were verified on a small scale.  

Week 2: Assignment: Evidence Synthesis and Tables

Submit Assignment

• Due Sunday by 11:59pm
• Points 125
• Submitting a file upload

Purpose

The purpose of this assignment is to document sources of research evidence that support the evidence-based intervention for the selected practice problem, including the level and quality of each source of research evidence. A synthesis of the evidence is conducted to determine the overall strength and quality of the evidence. The development of an evidence table and synthesis are foundational to inform actions and decisions to improve healthcare outcomes. Construction of an evidence table and synthesis supports the professional formation of the DNP-prepared nurse.

Course Outcomes

This assignment enables the student to meet the following course outcome.

• CO 3: Develop strategies to lead project planning, implementation, management, and evaluation to promote high-value healthcare. (POs 3, 5, 7)

Due Date(s)

As you incorporate published research study findings into your own writing, you aim for synthesis of the material. Before learning how to write a synthesis, it is important to define this term. At its most basic level, a synthesis involves combining two or more summaries. Synthesis writing is more difficult than it might first appear because this combining must be done in a meaningful way.

A synthesis requires critical reading and thinking in order to compare different material, highlighting similarities, differences, and connections. When a practice scholar synthesizes successfully, they present new ideas based on interpretations of published research evidence. Conceptually, it can be helpful to think about synthesis existing at both the local (or paragraph) level and the global (or paper) level.

Synthesis is all about collecting information from different sources and putting it together as one content.

Review the Graduate Re-Purpose Policy in the Student Handbook, page 15:

Repurposed Work (Chamberlain University Graduate Programs only): Graduate students have the opportunity to use previously submitted ideas as a foundation for future courses. No more than 50 percent of an assignment, excluding references, may be repurposed from another Chamberlain University course (excluding practicum courses). Previous course assignments that are deemed building blocks will be notated in the syllabus by the course leader. As with every assignment, students must uphold academic integrity; therefore, students must follow the guidelines for remaining academically honest according to the Academic Integrity policy. If the instructor is not made aware of the repurposing of an assignment, the submission will be treated as plagiarized work if not properly referenced

Follow these guidelines when completing each component of this assignment. Contact your course faculty if you have questions.

Assisting communities to adapt to climate change is a challenge we face. 

1. Pick a community near you and determine what climate change impacts they may face.

2. What vulnerabilities they may have. 

Remember to consider especially vulnerable populations within those communities and identify their specific challenges. (Websites such as CDC’s Climate and Health or EPA’s Climate Change Adaption Resource Center might be helpful.)
