Title: The impact of nutrition on covid – 19 prevalence. A writer can improve it. I need 50 articles to be used for this study. from last two years (2018 -2020) published articles!

In this unit, you will complete the research paper that you started in Unit VI (WeCare Community Hospitals). Based on the healthcare facility you created in that unit, complete the following components for the research paper:a) In your introduction, give a brief description of your facility’s current financial situation. This introduction and description should cover topics from your research in this unit.b) Create a balance sheet, income statement, and statement of cash flows for your healthcare facility. If you wish, you may present these in chart form in the paper. When creating these charts, you may use either Word or Excel, but Excel is recommended because it will handle the calculations. Based on these, discuss the performance of your facility.c) Make capital budgeting and investment decisions based on the need for your facility to update aging equipment. The equipment is expected to cost $1.3 million, and the expected life of the equipment is 15 years. Discuss at least two financing options for the new equipment.d) Present a long-term financial analysis for the facility. In this analysis, evaluate the financial implications of current and future healthcare trends, making sure to evaluate any legal issues in health care, and discuss the future of healthcare financial management in the United States.Combine all of your components into one research paper. Your completed research paper must be at least three pages in length, double-spaced. You are required to use at least five outside sources.

It is argued that overall health would be improved if as much attention was given to alcohol and other drugs as it is given to other products like food, fertilizer, chemicals, etc. How do you think greater knowledge of alcohol and legal drugs will improve the overall health of society?

Primary Task Response: Within the Discussion Board area, write 400–600 words that respond to the following questions with your thoughts, ideas, and comments. This will be the foundation for future discussions by your classmates. Be substantive and clear, and use examples to reinforce your ideas. With the HIPAA laws, much emphasis has been placed on the patient’s privacy rights and the requirements of the health care organization (a covered entity) to ensure privacy of protected health information. Discuss the following: When there is a breach of privacy, has a breach of fiduciary duty occurred? The main post should include at least 1 reference to research sources, and all sources should be cited using APA format.

Finding Evidence-Based Practice in Healthcare· In this activity, you will choose a PICO(T) question and develop a search strategy to find the best evidence to support the intervention.· What You Need to KnowPeer-reviewed journals contain research studies with evidence to do the following two tasks:1) Support the identified health care challenge and the need to improve it.2) Substantiate potential interventions and show that they are evidence-based and have been successful at closing gaps in practice or addressing health care challenges.It is important, then, to become familiar with performing a search of the literature based on a PICO(T) question. Likewise, it is crucial to master your skills in using databases to conduct your search.· Levels of Evidence Pyramid.As you have learned in the readings, quantitative studies result in some of the best possible evidence that can be used in the EBP process. Qualitative studies and the evidence they produce is also an area of research that is increasing rapidly in terms of its importance, validity, and relevance. This week, you will have the opportunity to reacquaint yourself with some of the most common quantitative and qualitative research methods and designs employed in the field of public health and health care.Quantitative research is a systematic investigation of phenomena by gathering quantifiable, numeric data and performing statistical, mathematical, or computational techniques. These types of studies collect data and information from or about a group of individuals or a sample of a population using surveys or questionnaires and with the help of existing data sources that track performance indicators and metrics and other data. There are four main types of quantitative research designs: descriptive, correlational, quasi-experimental and experimental. The differences between the four types primarily relate to the degree the researcher designs for control of the variables in the experiment.View the following presentation toknowaboutquantitativeresearchdesigns:·KaiserPermanenteSouthernCaliforniaNursingResearch(n.d.).NursingresearchseriesPart10:Quantitativestudydesign:Interventional[SlidePresentation]|TranscriptRetrievedfromhttp://kpnursing.org/_SCAL/research/researchseries/10_quantitativeinterventionalstudydesign/player.htmlQualitative research is significantly different from quantitative research in terms of its philosophical foundations, practical objectives, management of the investigative process, and use and interpretation of acquired data. The qualitative approach to an inquiry can provide a rich, experiential understanding of specific health care topics, greater than is generally possible with quantitative methods. Although assessing the methodological quality of qualitative studies is complex and somewhat subjective, your assessment skills in inductive reasoning, context flexibility, and theoretical analysis will grow in proportion to your use of qualitative research in your own practice and your frequency of reading this type of literature.View the following presentation to know about qualitative research designs:· Kaiser Permanente Southern California Nursing Research. (n.d.). Nursing research series – Part 8: Qualitative research design [Slide Presentation] | Transcript Retrieved from http://kpnursing.org/_SCAL/research/researchseries/08_qualititativerd/player.htmlOne area of potential confusion when reading about research methods and research designs is differentiating the two. Research methods are generally considered to be the broad underlying philosophical and practical approaches (that is, quantitative versus qualitative or intervention versus observation) to answer a research question. A research design, on the other hand, is more like a blueprint about what steps need to be taken to answer the research question or problem. Research designs include study sample collection and recruitment strategies, the timeframe where interventions take place, the nature of instruments used for measuring efficacy or outcomes, and types of precautions used during data collection procedures.Review the following chapter in your Evidence-Based Practice in Nursing and Healthcare textbook, to learn about both quantitative and qualitative study methods and designs:· Write Your Discussion PostFinding the Best Evidence to Answer Different PICO(T) QuestionsNote: Remember to adhere to the requirements for initial discussion postings and responses addressed in the Discussions section of the Course Policies and Expectations presentation.ANSWER THE FOLLOWING PICO(T) questions below USING NO LESS THAN 300 WORDS!!!3.
