  • Nursing Informatics Discussion 6

    1. Will the increased use of telehealth technology tools be viewed as dehumanizing patient care, or will it be viewed as a means to promote more contact with healthcare providers and as new ways for people to stay connected (e.g., online disease support groups), thereby creating better long-term disease management and patient satisfaction?

    2. Which types of resistance to new technologies might be evident among patients, caregivers, and nurses? Which evidence and strategies might help to diminish these resistances?

    Initial discussion posts require a minimum of 2 scholarly sources using APA 7th edition formatting guidelines.

  • ethical leadership discussion

    review the scenario
    As you read through your assigned scenario, imagine you are the nurse leader and must utilize your ethical leadership skills to create an effective solution.

    Summit Medical Center

    As the Nurse Manager of a busy cardiac unit at Summit Medical Center, you have noticed that nurses are not consistently documenting the ordered intake and output (I&O) measurements for clients, leading to inaccurate assessments of client fluid balance, delayed interventions, and potential harm to clients with heart conditions requiring precise fluid management. During a routine audit, you discovered several clients charts were missing I&O documentation for multiple shifts, including one client with congestive heart failure who experienced worsening symptoms because his fluid overload was not identified in time due to the missing documentation. This incident has prompted you to take immediate action to address the issue.

    After reading your assigned ethical leadership scenario, answer the discussion prompts below with explanation and detail.

    Paragraph one: Reflect on the assigned ethical leadership scenario. What is the priority issue to address? Include a rationale for why this is an urgent issue, including the consequences if it is not adequately addressed. Your response should be at least 3-5 sentences long, displaying adequate depth of reflection and response quality.

    Paragraph two: You are the nursing leader in this scenario. How will you address this issue in a way that supports both staff and clients? Include ethical leadership principles and ideas along with your rationale. Your response should be at least 3-5 sentences long, displaying adequate depth of reflection and response quality.

    Paragraph three: Consider the nurse leader’s responsibility to create and maintain employment conditions that allow nurses to adhere to professional standards. How does the 2015 American Nurses Association (ANA) Code of Ethics for Nurses apply to your assigned ethical leadership scenario? Your response should be at least 3-5 sentences long, displaying adequate depth of reflection and response quality.

    References: Provide complete references for all citations.

    Requirements: 3 paragraphs

  • Standards & Liabilities

    The purposes of this scholarly writing paper are to develop and to communicate a deeper understanding of the relationship of the scope of practice to the legalities and liabilities of being a practicing nurse. This paper will require you to research the Nursing Scope and Standards of Practice and the Florida Nurse Practice Act. Then, write a three to four-page paper (excluding the title page and references) on how the standards and scope of practice are important to nursing and what liabilities a nurse may face in their practice. Save your paper as LastNameFirstInitial_Standards Paper. Include at least three sources from the literature to support the position/s. The textbook may also be used as an additional source and will not count as one of the three sources. Include an Introduction, Discussion, and Conclusion sections. Using the Level One Headings (bold, centered), include in the Discussion section: A summary of the importance of standards Compare and contrast Standards to entry-level practice The relationship of the scope of practice to the liability and legalities of those in the role of the nurse An example from your experience or your work setting on how the standards of care are applied To better organize the paper, use Level Two Headings (flush with the left margin, bolded) for the topics included in the discussion. So, the sections in the paper should look like this: Discussion Importance of Standards of Care Your paragraph(s). Include why and how the standards of care and state practice acts determine the professional scope of nursing practice. Compare and Contrast Standards to Entry-Level Practice Your paragraph(s). Include how the standards can guide entry-level practice and discuss perceived problems they may encounter. Relationship of Scope of Practice to Liability Your paragraph(s). Analyze one case that the nurse was found either guilty or not guilty due to scope of practice and discuss if the student agrees or disagrees with the verdict and why. Professional Practice Example Your paragraph(s) Provide an example that you have observed in nursing practice of how the scope of practice and standards impacted the care provided. Conclusion Your paragraph(s)
