  • Workplace Burnout and Stress Reduction Strategies

    Using this Health problem : Workplace Burnout and StressReduction Strategies

    A S.M.A.R.T. goal is defined by its five key aspects or elements. Without all aspects, you might be goal setting, but not effectively creating a plan for success. Lets take a closer look at the five elements of S.M.A.R.T. goals.

    Specific

    Specific goals have a desired outcome that is clearly understood. This might be a sales number or a product rollout goal. No matter what it is, the goal should be clearly articulated so that everyone is on the same page with the objective. Define what will be accomplished and the actions to be taken to accomplish the goal. Goal must be clearly defined who and what

    Measurable

    These are the numbers used with the goal. You need to have a quantifiable objective so that you can track progress. Define what data will be used to measure the goal and set a method for collection. The success toward meeting the goal can be measured. Outcome must demonstrate levels of change or improvement.

    Achievable

    Goals need to be realistic in order to maintain the enthusiasm to try to achieve them. Setting lofty goals is good, but you may want to break them down into smaller, bite-sized chunks. If the goal is not doable, you may need to first ramp up resources to give yourself a shot at success. Ramping up resources would likely be its own S.M.A.R.T. goal. Goals are reasonable and can be achieved.

    Relevant

    Goals should be aligned with the mission of the company or the specific project at hand. Dont set goals just as an exercise for something to do. One way to determine if the goal is relevant is to define the key benefit to the organization or your personal goal. The goals are aligned with current tasks and projects and focus on one defined area

    Time-Bound

    Goals should have a deadline. A goal without a deadline doesnt do much. How can you identify success or failure? This is why S.M.A.R.T. goals set a final date. This doesnt mean that all the work is done, but it means that you can evaluate the success of the endeavor and set new goals. Goals have a clearly defined time frame including a target or deadline date.

    Using the information presented as a guide create a SMART goal to improve the indicators of your health problem at short or long term [this is the same health problem you will be completing the PowerPoint on].

    Your SMART goal should be listed in your introduction of your paper.

    Include a paragraph to introduce your topic and place it in context for your reader. Do not forget to cite your sources. Utilizes at least 4 sources and all sources are current within 5 years.

    REFERENCES Must have DOI Numbers for me to look them up- If I am unable to verify the references points will be deducted.

    Great resource to assist you:

    SMART goals help improve achievement and success. A SMART goal clarifies exactly what is expected and the measures used to determine if the goal is achieved and successfully completed.

    Examples:

    Not a SMART goal:

    Reach out to stakeholders.

    Does not identify a measurement or time frame, nor identify why the improvement is needed or how it will be used.

    SMART goal:

    The Department will launch communications with stakeholders by conducting three focus groups specific to needs assessment and funding by the end of the first quarter.

    Please ensure you follow the SMART format when you are formatting your SMART GOAL and its explanations. This assignment is to be submitted as an essay- with an introduction, questions developed at the graduate level, and a conclusion to summarize and synthesize key points. APA must be strictly followed. This assignment should be minimally 3 pages no more than 5 pages for content- do not exceed maximum page limit as it will incur a penalty [not counting references and title page] as the rationales utilizing EB Practice for each component of your SMART goal should be explained. Penalty WILL BE GIVEN if you go over the page limit-be concise.

  • Locate https://clincalc.com/Opioids/ and evaluate the follow…

    Discuss your approach to the overall case and results of your calculation.

    • A 79 year old white male is taking hydrocodone/APAP 10/325 for lower back pain (pt diagnosed with degenerative disc disease several months ago). The physician had written a prescription for Vicodin 10/325 1 or 2 tablets Q4-6h prn pain with a quantity of 120. Her expectation was that this would last the patient for one month. The patient is now requesting refills about every 10-14 days. He states he has been taking 2 tabs Q4h (12 tablets per day) because the pain is so bad I just cant stand it!. He also tells the provider he is “constipated so bad it sometimes hurts to sit, bend or walk”.
      • What is the problem with the way the patient is taking this medication versus how it was prescribed? Consider: maximum daily dose, frequency, intended as needed use versus scheduled use, acetaminophen exposure, and the risk of overuse/misuse.
      • The patients pain pattern suggests inadequate control with short-acting opioids. Based on your assessment, it is determined this patient should be converted to extended release morphine for better, more consistent pain control. Perform this conversion and provide an appropriate recommendation (drug, dose, frequency) for the extended release morphine
      • What additional recommendations would you make? Consider and address:
        • Adjuvant analgesics appropriate for chronic low-back pain/DDD (e.g., neuropathic agents, muscle relaxants, antidepressants for chronic pain, topical options, non-opioid analgesics).
        • Non-pharmacologic strategies that may improve outcomes.
        • A bowel regimen appropriate for a patient on chronic opioid therapy, including both stool softener and stimulant components.
        • Monitoring and safety considerations, especially in an older adult (fall risk, renal function, acetaminophen load, risk of opioid-induced harm).
        • Clarifying expectations regarding chronic pain management and functional goal
