Unit 7 Discussion

Palliative Care
Case Study
Mr. Brown, who was your eighth-grade science teacher, has been a patient in your practice for many years. Several years ago, he was diagnosed with cancer and has been undergoing treatments. He recently was told that his cancer was no longer responding to treatments and that his condition is terminal. Mr. Brown, along with his wife and daughter, have scheduled an appointment to discuss palliative care and what can be expected. Although Mr. Brown’s death is not imminent, his care needs clearly will continue to increase, and they will continue until his eventual death from the disease. The disease process is typically accompanied by an increasing level of pain, which is of great concern to Mr. Brown and his family. The meeting today is intended to determine whether the patient and the family feel that palliative care is appropriate.
Case Questions
What are some open-ended questions that can be asked to explore the need for palliative care?
The decision is made to proceed with palliative care, and a plan to manage pain is being developed in partnership with Mr. Brown and his family. What does total pain management entail, and why is managing total pain important to the well-being of Mr. Brown and his family?
How should Mr. Brown’s spiritual well-being be evaluated, and why is it part of total pain management?
As you learn that Mr. Brown’s level of pain has increased since his treatments ended, you suggest the use of opioids for pain management. Mr. Brown’s daughter expresses concern about the use of opioids to manage pain, stating, “Aren’t opioids bad? I hear about people dying from opioid abuse on the news all the time.” What information should you provide to assuage the daughter’s concern?
As the disease process progresses, the patient begins to demonstrate signs of dyspnea, including confusion and anxiety. What treatment should be initiated, and what are important considerations when initiating this treatment?

P/siological Psychology
Purpose: The purpose of this activity is to help you learn about neuronal communication and prepare for the upcoming exam.One of the best ways to know whether you understand a topic is to teach it to someone else, so use this assignment to teach your classmates about a topic. The more you think about how to clearly explain it to another person, the better you will learn it. Teach the topic as if your classmates know nothing about it. Once you have submitted your assignment, you will be able to review your classmates’ posts and learn from them, and it will help you identify which parts you need to study more.
Option 3:
Describe the steps involved in an action potential. To answer this question fully, you will need to

FACTS
Summarize the relevant FACTS. Do not simply restate the scenario (even in your own words); instead, determine what facts are essential to solving the legal business problem the scenario poses and only include those. Any facts that you refer to in the application section of your paper should be stated first in the fact section.
ISSUE
Identify and state the legal ISSUE (or question that has to be decided), incorporating the relevant facts. It can be phrased as a question or as a statement, e.g., “The issue before the court is whether a defendant driver who ran a red light and struck the plaintiff, a pedestrian, while she was crossing the street in a cross-walk, is negligent and liable for her injuries.”
RULE
After you state the question that a court would need to decide if this case were litigated, you need to state the appropriate legal RULE (or rules) accurately and thoroughly, including all the elements or components of the rule, as well as any pertinent exceptions or defenses that will factor into your analysis.
APPLICATION
Use the rule as a legal checklist of each point you need to discuss as you APPLY the rule to the facts of the problem, demonstrating what specific information given in the problem proves each part of the appropriate rule. After you write this section, go back and compare it to your facts — any facts that you used in applying the legal rules also need to be in your fact statement. [Many students have told me that they rewrite their fact statement after writing the application!]
CONCLUSION
State your CONCLUSION in one or two sentences, but not as a lengthy paragraph that simply restates your whole paper as a way to increase your word count. Your conclusion should be the answer to the legal issue that you believe best resolves by the problem raised by the scenario.
disc 5 (Issues and trends in nursing)
/0 Comments/in Health Medical /by bonniejecintaQUESTION
The media portray many images of nursing, some favorable and some unfavorable.
Does media portrayal of nursing affect how patients perceive nurses as authority figures? Why or why not? Think about nursing stereotypes and discuss the ways you can influence the public image of nursing.
Discuss the various roles nurses can play that support the real image of nursing. Think about community health care and preventive services for all, but especially the underserved.
Using the library to research articles will be helpful for this class. We want the best evidence to support our discussion posts. Support what you say with examples and connect it to the concepts we are learning and provide evidence (textbook, articles, research, etc.) to support what you are saying in initial and peer posts.
Hint: The textbook and online presentations as well as the resources provided each week will assist you in answering the discussion prompts. It is advisable to use control F (or command F on Mac) to search for key terms if using the electronic textbook or the index for a hard copy textbook.
Answering the Initial Prompt Completely and On Time
Make sure to answer the prompt thoroughly, providing details and specifics. In order to do this, it will help you if you label each part of the prompt with a heading/question separately if applicable.

A Letter to the Editor

Letter to the Editor
As this is a relatively simple assignment, we will be working on the letter to the editor for one unit only. The paper will be due at the end of Unit 4.
Purpose:
How many times have we heard someone complaining about something happening in our communities–but offering no solutions for the problem? This assignment is designed to develop your problem-solving skills and engage you in a substantive conversation concerning a current local issue. This assignment will also encourage you to begin seriously considering your audience as a writer. When you are writing a letter such as this, you’ll want to consider who will be reading it, particularly in terms of what words, examples, facts, or appeals might best convince this particular group.
The Assignment:
Write a two to three page double-spaced (minimum of 500-750 words) letter to the editor, proposing a solution to a current local problem. List the newspaper to which you would be sending this to at the top of your paper. Begin the letter with: “Dear Editor,” Throughout the paper, be as specific as you possibly can in terms of:
1.) Defining/describing the problem and who it affects
2.) Describing your solution
3.) Defending your solution as the best means of dealing with this problem
As you’re writing this letter, also do keep in mind your audience. As a reminder, your audience is not the actual editor of the newspaper. Instead, it is the local community that constitutes the readership of that newspaper.
***
IMPORTANT NOTE: Papers on the following topics will not be accepted:
* abortion
* capital punishment
* euthanasia
I’ve already read more papers on these topics than anyone should in an entire lifetime, so I won’t read anymore. I encourage you to be more creative in selecting your topic. For the Letter to the Editor, you should also be choosing a topic that is far more specific and local than any of these broad controversial issues.
