NR 507 Week 3 Discussion (Parts 1, 2, 3) + Quiz Answers

NR 507 Week 3 Discussion

PART No. 1:

A 17-year-old African American from the inner city complains of severe chest and abdominal pain. Upon examination the attending physician performs and EKG, chest x-ray, and an abdominal and chest clinical examination and finds nothing. Assuming, she is drug seeking he sends her home. She comes back to the ER four hours later and now you see the patient. She explains that she was running track this past afternoon at school and that despite being very hot (100 F) she pushed on. Afterwards, she starts feeling extensive pain in her chest and abdomen.  She has jaundiced eyes, her blood pressure is 98/50, pulse is 112, T = 99.9 F, R = 28. The pain seems out of proportion to the physical findings.

· What is your list of differential diagnoses in this case and explain how each of these fits with the case patient as described above. Be sure to list at least three (3) pertinent differential diagnoses. Indicate which of these you would select as the most likely diagnosis and explain why.

· Now, as she is in the ER she begins to exhibit stroke like features. ? Does this change your differential?

· How do you treat this patient now? Are they any preventative actions that could have been taken?

PART No. 2:(Clinical Scenarios and Diagnoses)

Jesse is a 57-year-old male who presents with gradual onset of dyspnea on exertion and fatigue. He also complains of frequent dyspepsia (GERD) with nausea and occasional epigastric pain. He states that at night he has trouble breathing especially while lying on his back (Orthopnea). This is relieved by him sitting up. His vitals are 180/110, P = 88, T = 98.0 F, R = 20.

· Write three (3) differential diagnoses in this case and explain how each item in your differential fits and how it might not fit.

· What tests would you order? What immediate treatment would you consider giving this patient and what treatment when he went home? Assume your first differential is definitive.

· Now, he comes back to your clinic 3 months later and both his ankles are slightly swollen. What possible explanations are there for this observation? CHF now involving right side Must order Echo with EKG and Nuc stress test, labs Pro BNP.

PART No. 3:(Clinical Scenarios and Diagnoses)

A new patient is brought into the office for their annual evaluation. The child is a 6-year-old and appears a bit small for their age but not so small that any alarm bells are set off.  The vitals are: P = 116, R = 22, T = 98.6 F, BP = 110/50. (The normal vitals in a 6-year-old are P = 75 – 120, R = 16 – 22, T = 98.6 , BP = (85-115)/(48-64).  Examination of the lungs is normal, HEENT is normal, as is the abdominal exam. The heart however, seems laterally displaced and there appears to be only a continuous murmur which can be described as crescendo/decrescendo systolic murmur that extends into diastole. Because, you were trained at Chamberlain College of Nursing you immediately know that this is probably a patent ductus arteriosus.

· Explain the murmur from a mechanistic view of the hearts physiological functioning?

· What is the epidemiology of a patent ductus arteriosus?

· How is a patent ductus arteriosus treated?

Ethical Dilemmas in Practice

Ethical Dilemmas in Practice

(Ethical Dilemmas in Practice)

All questions need to be in apa format and approximate 300 each and sited

Question 1

Your assigned reading this week explains the importance of distinguishing between the types of ethics (e.g., mandatory, aspirational, principle, virtue). Understanding these differences is the foundation to ethical practice. The more professionals are anchored in an understanding of ethics and relevant applications, the more likely they will effectively apply their understanding to ethical dilemmas.

Discuss the differences between mandatory ethics and aspirational ethics.

• What are the differences between principle ethics and virtue ethics?

• Which type or types of ethics are represented in your profession?

You are encouraged to explore any applicable professional codes of conduct, i.e., American Psychological Association (APA) or American Correctional Association (ACA). Explain why you believe this is the case.

Question 2(Ethical Dilemmas in Practice)

Professionals in all areas from business to counseling commonly anticipate possible cultural differences with clients. At the same time, they inevitably encounter cultural differences with clients as well as with other professionals or with the views of organizations in which they work. These differences can compromise the services that clients receive unless effectively resolved.

For this discussion question, provide at least two examples from within your profession of situations in which the policies of real or fictitious organizations seem contrary to the best interests of a client due to cultural differences.

Discuss the implications of this for ethical practice.

Question 3(Ethical Dilemmas in Practice)

Privileged communication is a legal concept that prohibits the disclosure of confidential communications, while referring to confidentiality as the ethical responsibility of professionals to safeguard clients from unauthorized disclosures. This is one example of an important distinction that spans the legalities and ethical nature of professional practice. An understanding of these distinctions is not only characteristic of a responsible professional, but is also vital to the provision of ethically and legally accountable services in clients’ best interests.

Discuss the differences between confidentiality, privacy, and privileged communication, as well as the differences between the duty to warn and duty to protect. What would you think is the most important aspect of confidentiality as it relates to your profession?

Present a scenario in which you discuss some of your ideas in simple and clear language, as though you were having an actual discussion with a colleague who was in training. Then, discuss situations in which it is legally required that you breach confidentiality.

Question 4

A whistleblower, by definition, is someone who brings an unethical, immoral, or illegal business practice to the public’s attention. Whistleblowers have a difficult time in doing this, and they often find their lives changed because of their actions. Sometimes they are shunned and receive death threats. It is common for the family members to feel the effects of a whistleblower’s behavior.

Dr. Jeffrey Wigand became one of the best-known whistleblowers after his experience was turned into a movie, The Insider. He proved that tobacco companies were deliberately boosting the nicotine content of cigarettes, making them more addictive and cancer causing. However, like other whistleblowers, he suffered from tremendous stress and received death threats and other forms of intimidation for doing the right thing.

How did Dr. Wigand show moral intelligence in this situation? Jeffrey Wigand put his economic future as well as coworkers and his family at risk to expose the tobacco companies. Would you have done the same thing?

Question 5(Ethical Dilemmas in Practice)

As the field of psychology and other disciplines has continued to expand, opportunities to engage in multiple professional activities have also increased. At the same time, this abundance of opportunities also presents ongoing challenges requiring an understanding of personal limits. To rise above these challenges, we as professionals need to understand their limits and apply this understanding to professional situations that we encounter.

Discuss the situations in which you believe you may now be or could be less competent, situations that could require you to make a professional referral. Discuss how you would make a referral and what you would say to your client. You can create a scenario of your choice with a client in which you need to make this referral. When discussing this scenario, address (1) the background and presentation of the client, (2) your working relationship with the client to date, and (3) why the referral is essential and ethically significant in this scenario. Using the Internet, research your professional code of ethics for examples related to conflicts and the need to refer your client or case out.

Question 6(Ethical Dilemmas in Practice)

Ethics is a code of thinking and behavior governed by a combination of personal, moral, legal, and social standards of what is right. Although the definition of “right” varies with situations and cultures, its meaning in the context of a community work involves many guiding principles with which most community activists and service providers would probably agree. Above all else, do no harm. Hippocrates put this in words over 2,000 years ago, and it’s still Rule Number One.

You have volunteered to run a community violence-prevention program, working with kids who are gang members or gang hangers-on. The kids trust you, and sometimes tell you about some of their less-than-savory activities. The police also know you work with gang members and often ask you for information about kids. What are you obligated to tell them or to keep from them?

If you are actively striving to do “good,” how far does that obligation take you? If there are issues affecting the community that have nothing to do directly with the one you’re concerned with, do you nonetheless have an obligation to become involved? What if you don’t really understand the whole situation, and your involvement may do as much harm as good—do you still have an ethical obligation to support or become active on the right side? What if your support or activism endangers or compromises your community intervention?

Digital Threats Mitigation Strategies

(Digital Threats Mitigation Strategies)
Mitigating digital threats requires a multi-faceted approach to ensure comprehensive protection. First, implementing robust security measures such as firewalls, antivirus software, and intrusion detection systems is essential to detect and prevent unauthorized access. Regularly updating software and systems ensures vulnerabilities are patched, reducing the risk of exploitation.

Second, adopting strong authentication methods, like multi-factor authentication (MFA), adds an extra layer of security by requiring multiple forms of verification. Encryption of sensitive data, both in transit and at rest, protects information from being intercepted or accessed by unauthorized parties.

Third, educating employees and users about cybersecurity best practices, such as recognizing phishing attempts and using strong, unique passwords, is crucial in preventing human error, which is often the weakest link in security.

Fourth, developing and regularly updating an incident response plan ensures that organizations can quickly and effectively respond to breaches, minimizing damage. Conducting regular security audits and vulnerability assessments helps identify and address potential threats proactively.

Finally, leveraging advanced technologies such as artificial intelligence and machine learning can enhance threat detection and response capabilities by identifying patterns and anomalies indicative of cyber threats. By combining these strategies, organizations can create a resilient defense against digital threats.

Assignment: Final Project: Mitigation Plan, Part 1In 2015, the FBI’s Internet Crime Complaint Center (IC3) reported nearly 300,000 complaints of fraud, identity theft, cyber-bullying, harassment, and extortion, among others (Internet Crime Complaint Center, 2015). This is a startling number, especially considering that the IC3 only handles incidents from digital technology. The list of potential topics for mitigation is extensive.

Ethics in Christian Healthcare

/in , , , /by

Ethics in Christian Healthcare

(Ethics in Christian Healthcare)

Christian healthcare ethics are rooted in biblical principles, emphasizing the sanctity of life, compassion, and the intrinsic worth of every individual. These ethics guide healthcare professionals in making decisions that align with Christian values, ensuring that care is provided with dignity, respect, and love. The principle of sanctity of life underscores the belief that life is a sacred gift from God, deserving of protection and reverence from conception to natural death. This perspective often influences positions on issues such as abortion, euthanasia, and end-of-life care, advocating for the preservation of life whenever possible.

Compassion and love, central tenets of Christian ethics, compel healthcare providers to treat patients with kindness, empathy, and understanding, reflecting the love of Christ in their care. This involves not only addressing physical ailments but also providing emotional and spiritual support, recognizing the holistic nature of human beings. Additionally, Christian healthcare ethics emphasize justice, advocating for equitable access to medical care and resources, especially for the marginalized and vulnerable.

In practice, these ethical principles challenge healthcare professionals to balance medical interventions with moral considerations, ensuring that their actions align with their faith while respecting the diverse beliefs and values of their patients. This ethical framework promotes a compassionate, holistic approach to healthcare, deeply rooted in Christian values.

Read the instructions carefully so that you can properly write the second assigned essay of the second unit. The due date for this essay is May /12/ 2016.

The text should be following a Microsoft Word format, a letter size twelve (12) and a spacing of one and a half (1.5) between sentences (or line spacing in the paragraph options). The extension of the work should not be less than three (3) pages or greater than five (5) pages of content (not title page or cover of any kind is required).

At the end of your essay you will list the References used (for more information see the text I sent regarding the instructions for writing an essay for this class). Plagiarism will not be tolerated.

The written essay should be a product that reflects your understanding and interpretation (substantiated with arguments, evidence and reasoning, expressed in a clear, consistent, and accurate matter) of the assigned readings and discussions in class. Do not use Internet sources and limit yourself to the assigned texts, the discussion in class and your own argumentative capabilities.

Instructions(Critical Psychology’s Qualitative Approaches)

In this second unit we have discussed some of the main qualitative methods of research in Psychology, focusing on how these methods open new and critical possibilities regarding a more in-depth inquiry that pays attention to constructivist, anthropological, phenomenological, discursive and other “alternative” elements (different from mainstream psychology and strict quantitative methods) in specific situations of daily life. Bearing this in mind:

Discuss the importance of these qualitative approaches of inquiry in building and sustaining a “critical psychology” that is interested in understanding how:

1) knowledge is produced, used and appropriated (depending on the different functions of knowledge and its contexts, including psychology) from a constructivist view that questions the fallacy of objectivity (or the “world as given”)

2) experience is framed and signified (depending on the social, cultural and particular context of the group or individual), which critically questions the fallacy of the centrality of the individual.

3) the underlying ideologies, discourses and relations of power oppress, stigmatize or alienate certain sections of society, which assumes the importance of studying the uses of language and knowledge (which are not neutral or “objective”).

Take into account the following when elaborating the essay:

1. You will notice that there are three (3) interests in these approaches of inquiry. I am interested in that you at least elaborate one of them. In essence, the three of them are

inter-related, so elaborating any of them in-depth will be enough for the purposes of this essay.

2. There’s several theoretical frameworks (from constructivist and feminist theories to colonial and ethnological theories) and methods (ranging from ground theory to analysis of discourse and narrative analysis) that you can choose from in your elaboration of qualitative approaches of inquiry. Although it would be recommendable that you mention them, I am more interested in that you pick only one (a theoretical framework, paradigm or method), even if briefly as an example on how such qualitative methods are a form of critical knowledge. Pick the one that fits more with your interests or the way you make your approach to answer this essay.

3. Remember that the logic here is to discuss how this approaches of inquiry and particular interests are related to a more “critical” psychology (at least as Ian Parker and Erica Burman define it) and the criticisms brought forward in Kenneth Gergen’s view of Psychological Science. Bear in mind that you should at least use one of these author’s texts (which are the two first texts that appear in the references below). Use at least two (2) of the assigned texts of the conference portion of the class. You are also welcomed to use the texts assigned to the laboratory sections, as long as they apply to your discussion.
