A. Do you agree with the conclusions and the use of scientific research in this article?  Overall, do you believe one should aim to be less ambivalent over time, or to maintain or allow their current ambivalence to continue in life?

B. Is it possible or desirable to be ambivalent regarding your own happiness?  Even if there are other parts of our life that it can add to, it might be that happiness is an exception that does not allow for ambivalence.  If you are able to achieve it. On the other hand, since we are generally pretty ambivalent, perhaps we should include that in our conception of a happy life. How would ambivalence fit, if it all, in a happy life?

Topic 1 Influenza

Tar

Natural History of Influenzas

The influenza virus was once called the Spanish Flu. This was because at the end of May 1918, the King of Spain, King Alfonso XIII, was the first to openly admit that a new disease had emerged in their country (Mamelund, 2017). But the disease did not originate in Spain. Other countries during that period throughout Europe including the United States were experiencing the so called “Spanish” Flu. Since World War I, much has changed in terms of understanding the flu and the origination of infectious disease. It is now known that the Flu is caused by a virus. Statistical studies since 2000 have found that higher mortality rates occur among the poor in comparison to the more affluent (Mamelund, 2017). People who are more susceptible to influenza are those who have poor nutrition, live in overcrowded areas, have secondary infections like pneumonia and other diseases (Mamelund, 2017).

Presenting Symptoms of Influenza

According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), Influenza is a contagious respiratory illness caused by influenza viruses. It can cause mild to severe illness and even cause death (Influenza, 2018).

  • Fever or feeling feverish/chills
  • Cough
  • Sore throat
  • Runny or stuffy nose
  • Muscle or body aches
  • Headaches
  • Fatigue
  • Some people may have vomiting and diarrhea (More common in children than adults)

Outbreak characteristics(Nursing Health Promotion/Reply/Wk2(influenza))

According to the CDC, people who have the flu are most contagious in the first 3 to 4 days after infection. People who are healthy can start infecting others, 1 day before symptoms develop and up to 5 to 7 days after getting sick (Influenza, 2018). In addition, some people can have the virus, have no symptoms and spread it to others.

The World Health Organization’s Global Influenza Surveillance and Response System was established in 1952 (Influenza, 2018). The purpose is to reduce the spread of infection by vaccines.  Based on the surveillance system, Influenza activity in the United States remains low throughout the summer months and early October. Outpatient illness surveillance: The proportion of outpatient visits for influenza-like illness remained low and was 1.4% which is below the national baseline of 2.2%

Compare And Contrast: A Person Or The Writings

Compare And Contrast: A Person Or The Writings

 

Pick one person among the 3 faiths and describe one key event or teaching that makes them stand out and why. (Compare And Contrast: A Person Or The Writings)

OR

Pick the writings of one of the following: O.T. Jewish; or, O.T and N.T for Christianity; or Quran. And tell me what they believe for salvation. Then critique your view on it as to it being true or not.

So you may either do a paper of 1000 words (4 pages).  Or, you may do a PowerPoint presentation of 6 slides, with details in the note section, critiquing the topic there.

Remember, I want a ‘critique’ of your views and not just description, whichever method you present. I want your judgments to the best position that should be taken.

That would include your opinion in an introductory paragraph or the first slide that states your purpose for your choice, your thesis view (overall judgment of your topic, and areas that will be addressed). (Compare And Contrast: A Person Or The Writings)

 

EXTRA INFORMATION:

Have a purpose statement: what do you intend to achieve with your selection.

Have a thesis comment, also known, as your judgment on the topic; that is to say, your viewpoint. If contrasting two faiths, which stands out and impressed you the most.

List your supporting evidence, or areas that will be addressed that support your thesis view. Do not tackle a broad topic but narrow it down.

The paper should have a thesis comment and just the areas that will be addressed. No need to amplify in the introductory element. The paper intro needs to include some idea of your topic when you submit it.

The paper should have transitional elements that are important and include some ‘certificate of origin’ indicating your work.

 

Describe your content. Use it only to form the basis a critique on each key idea. What is your view of it; does it support your overall, thesis. Do you agree or disagree and why? It may even be wise to use the term, ‘ critique’ in a paragraph or two as a sub header in your paper. This is important. I want your view and not just a bunch of information describing the paper.

#2

THIS ASSIGNMENT IS DUE FRIDAY OCTOBER 16, 2015

 

Final Paper

A sociologist must be able to analyze racial and ethnic differences in different national contexts. Race and ethnicity are constructed differently in different places and at different times. For example, in the United States, race is defined in a way such that two children with the same biological parents cannot possibly be of different races. In contrast, some countries, such as the Dominican Republic, define race in a way that would allow for siblings (born of the same parents) to be placed into different racial categories. In order to develop this skill, you will select a particular country and analyze the ethnic stratification within that society.

For this assignment, you must focus on ethnic stratification and conflict, including evidence of prejudice and discrimination. In addition to a description of the selected society and its ethnic groups, include an analysis of similarities and differences in the society’s ethnic stratification system as compared to the United States. (Final Paper Proposal and Outline)

You may select one of the countries on the CIA World Factbook website for comparison to the United States in terms of the ethnic stratification system.

•Provide examples of the ethnic problems in that society, including evidence of prejudice and discrimination.

•Discuss what the experts say about ethnic problems (or ethnic harmony) in the selected country’s society.

•Compare the selected country’s society to society in the United States. Evaluate similarities and differences related to ethnic groups, stratification, and conflict, using specific examples gathered in your research.

•Conclude with reflections and thoughts about ethnic groups and the societies in which we live.

•References

Academic research papers must meet certain standards of quality recognized by the academic community. What constitutes quality, academic research?

•Primary (original) sources written by experts in the field of study.

•Secondary sources supported by research in primary sources.

•Credible sources (experts in the field; well-known theorists; sources which use primary and secondary sources to support claims).

•In graduate work, the use of peer-reviewed journal articles (journal articles reviewed by recognized experts in the relevant field of study) is required.

•Educational and government websites (those ending with a web URL suffix of .edu or .gov) may be appropriate in some cases but should be evaluated carefully.

Writing the Final Paper

The Final Paper

•Must be eight to 10 double-spaced pages in length (excluding title and reference pages), and formatted according to APA style as outlined in theAshford Writing Center.

Nursing Teaching Discussion Week4

Topic 2/T (Nursing Teaching Discussion Week4)

Identify an experience where you had to assess the needs, interests, and goals of a patient with an ethnic background, different from yours, that resulted in a positive learning experience. How did you turn the situation into a positive learning experience? Did you personally have to deal with any stereotypical beliefs?

When I was working in SICU (Surgical Intensive Care Unit), I was assigned to a patient who was admitted to ICU after an episode of bradycardia and loss of consciousness on the medical surgical floor. A rapid response was initiated and she was intubated and brought to our unit. She was Haitian and came from a very different ethnic background. At the time I was not familiar with their culture or beliefs nor did I know her health history and what originally brought her to the hospital or the reason for her admission. (Nursing Teaching Discussion Week4)

After a couple days of being assigned to her and taking care of her and her family, I began to understand a little more. She had been diagnosed with breast cancer the previous year and had undergone chemotherapy which unfortunately was unsuccessful. The cancer had spread throughout her body including her esophagus which was later found out to be the reason for the intubation. A tumor had attached itself to her airway and she was unable to breath on her own.

I instantly became attached to the patient and family and enjoyed learning about their culture and belief system. Many people including doctors, nurses and other medical professionals couldn’t understand why a patient who was terminal would want everything done and continue aggressive treatment. Many gave up on her and the family which is why I believe they requested that I take care of her every shift I worked. Special arrangements were made between the family and my director to accommodate their wishes.

Each shift I worked, I took care of her. Her daughter and her husband never left her side other than for bathing or other emergent matters that couldn’t be handled without them. Eventually the primary physicians would stop rounding on her daily and healthcare professional started discussing her prognosis, treatment and plan of care. No one understood why we were continuing to treat this individual as they called the treatment “futile”.

As time went on, the hospital decided to call in Risk Management as they had a different belief and understanding regarding by patient’s wishes and medical management. This is when I realized I did, I understood her and her family and knew I needed to be her patient advocate and her voice. I fought for her treatment and plan of care which was aggressive not palliative. She expressed to me she wanted to live, even if it meant her last days were spent in the hospital. She would lay there and listen to her children laugh and tell stories about their day and her husband’s voice telling her how much he loved her. She was a mother of 10 and had the most beautiful family I had ever met.

Before I met her, I may have had the same thoughts and comments as the other healthcare professionals. However, once I got to know her and her family as well as their cultural beliefs and background, I understood her. This was more than a positive learning experience it changed my life, my outlook and opened my eyes to cultural diversity and understanding. (Nursing Teaching Discussion Week4)

Week 1 discussion 4: Writing homework help

Question description (Week 1 discussion 4: Writing homework help)

Please do a paragraph about this post with this instruction.

post most have 4 or more sentences .

you also have to have a high quality post from a content perspective. This means it also needs to do more than agree with or praise a class mate. If you agree with a classmate, explain why, give an example, share what you learned in the reading

The dissemination of research findings into nursing practice is essential to provides some strategies to improve our sharing of new knowledge and innovations, so that patients can experience the best high quality health care and nursing practices are based on timely knowledge derived from research. The dissemination process, and transforming research into practice is a very demanding process. It requires our intelligence, creativity, clinical judgment, knowledge and skills, organizational savvy and endurance if we are committed to making a difference to improving health and health care system.

To disseminate new knowledge on pressure ulcer prevention practice, the author would present her project in OJIN (The Online Journal of Issue in Nursing) “The Online Journal of Issues in Nursing is a peer-reviewed publication that provides a forum for discussion of the issues inherent in current topics of interest to nurses and other health care professionals. The intent of this journal is to present different views on issues that affect nursing research, education, and practice, thus enabling readers to understand the full complexity of a topic.

The interactive format of the journal encourages a dynamic dialogue resulting in a comprehensive discussion of the topic, thereby building up the body of nursing knowledge and suggesting policy implications that enhance the health of the public.” (OJIN, 2017) OJIN’s international readership includes nurses employed by thousands of healthcare organizations throughout the world, researchers, and educators and students in a variety of educational programs.

The conference that writer would prefer to present evidence based practice research project on pressure ulcer prevention would be NUAP Biennial Conference. This conference discuses everything on pressure ulcer. This conference provides excellent board to present new knowledge on pressure ulcer prevention. The primary mission of the NPUAP & this conference is to improve patient outcomes in pressure injury prevention and treatment. By incorporating the latest scientific evidence into the educational slide sets for teaching health care providers. (Week 1 discussion 4: Writing homework help)

A big problem in health care today is the research-practice gap, often caused by the failure to disseminate new knowledge from research and translate this into practice. Only a small percentage of research findings get translated into practice, due to three reasons: research results may not be disseminated at all, the findings are not disseminated to the right audiences, or the results are disseminated but are then not translated into practice. These problems occur in medicine, nursing and other health disciplines many countries. Today there is a movement around the world to try to overcome these problems, and the terminology of this movement includes knowledge translation, evidence-based nursing, or evidence based practice. Through OJIN and NUAP Biennial Conference author has great opportunity to disseminate new knowledge about pressure ulcer prevention into nursing practice.
