Nursing

A nurse is working in the outpatient pediatric clinic and is performing an assessment on a 3 year old. The mother tells the nurse that the child has temper tantrums and she doesn’t know how to deal with them. What should the nurse tell the mom about how to manage temper tantrums? According to Piaget what stage of cognitive development is this child in? According to Erickson what stage of psychosocial development is this child in? According to Kohlberg what stage of moral development is this child in? Take a look at the Denver II Developmental screening chart, or look in your book, or conduct outside research: what developmental milestones should this child be reaching and how would you assess for these? When referencing, please use APA format. not older than 5 years

Initial Post Using the Week 3: Discussion Choice Question, choose your topic for this week’s discussion. The topics come from Chapters 5 and 7. Chapter 6 talks about infection and you should apply what you learned from Chapter 6 to your topic as well. You may use the textbook as one reference as well as the learning materials posted within the course. However, additional references should be scholarly based and be a new source that you are introducing to your peers. Remember, you should focus on the pathophysiology of the content for your initial and peer replies as well as applying your knowledge to Advanced Practice Nursing. Describe the purpose of gamma globulins. How might this affect an individual who receives massive transfusions or would it? in addition to answering the question posed make sure that you provide an example of a patient in which you might check these labs, perform a test, give an injection, etc. and how the results or your new knowledge would or could affect your plan of care? of need more than one page i will add money

Based on your nursing practice specialty, which nursing theorist/theory might align with your current career. Nightingale considered the discipline of nursing to be both an art and a science, Do you agree or disagree? Why? A reference should support your statement. This the discussion that I need to do, I do not really need a topic for this. this paper is for a discussion board.

What were the early conceptualizations of nursing theory? What are nurse-patient theories?

Workflow analysis is not an optional part of clinical implementations, but rather a necessity for safe patient care supported by technology. The ultimate goal of workflow analysis is not to “pave the cow path,” but rather to create a future-state solution that maximizes the use of technology and eliminates non–value-added activities. Apply concepts learned in chapter 13 to create a workflow analysis of a procedure common to your practice. Review a current workflow diagram in your area or consider a process that needs a workflow diagram. Ex: admission process to the emergency room Diagram the workflow for the procedure you chose. Have you included all of the steps? Assess each of the steps in the diagram and determine if they are value-added steps or non-value added steps. Is the non-value added steps necessary—i.e. required by accreditors or by law? Write a 2-4 page paper using APA format describing the workflow process you have chosen. Describe the diagram you have created, what metrics are used to evaluate the workflow, what are the areas for improvement, and conclusion. Include a copy of the workflow diagram in the paper. See attached file for the sample paper.

Hypotheses and Research Questions in Action Objectives Describe the structure of a research question Describe the structure of hypotheses Discussion Overview In this discussion forum, you will explore the structure of a hypothesis and research question and how they would relate to your research question or problem of interest. Deliverables Your participation in the discussion forum, including the following: A response to the initial questions Responses to at least two other students’ posts Step 1 Reflect on your research question or problem of interest. (My plan research question is: The use of massage chair and music in behavioral unit patients. Reflect on the following questions: Why do we do it this way? Are there better ways to assess or intervene? Do patients with a specific intervention/assessment have better outcomes? Would your research question or problem of interest be best suited to qualitative or quantitative research? Would you develop a hypothesis or a research question for your problem of interest? Why would you choose one versus the other? Step 2 Post a response to the discussion board. Address the following questions in your response: What are the essential elements within the structure of a hypothesis? What are the essential elements within the structure of a research question? What is your problem of interest? Compose a qualitative or quantitative research question for your proposed problem of interest. Would you develop a hypothesis or a research question for your problem of interest? Why would you choose one versus the other?

2 Discussion topics below, respond 1 page and 1 source for each one.  #1 should kickbacks by considered a perk of a managerial position or an unfair trade practice? locate an example of an organization that willing accepted a kickback.  What was the outcome?
