  • Nursing Question

    Prepare a 5-7 page evaluation and theoretical framework analysis of a nursing curriculum of personal or professional interest.

    The nurse educator role is a dynamic, challenging, yet rewarding career choice for which many nurses have developed a passion. This course provides you with an opportunity to assess, design, implement, evaluate, and revise nursing curricula. Because health care knowledge and technology are expanding, these elements must be considered when a curriculum is built for today’s learner.

    In this assessment, you will select a nursing curriculum either from an academic setting, such as a school of nursing, or a clinical setting, such as a hospital staff development program. You will evaluate the selected nursing curriculum in detail and describe the organizing design or theoretical framework on which your selected curriculum is based. You will also need to examine how this design or framework is demonstrated in the curriculum. Possible organizing designs or frameworks include simple-to-complex, stages of illness, nursing conceptual framework, concept-based, outcomes based, competency-based, interdisciplinary, and others.

    According to Iwasiw and Goldenberg (2020), curriculum design involves not only configuring courses within a program, but also deciding how those courses will be sequenced and establishing a relationship between the courses. Also, the mission, values, philosophy, and goals of the institution influence the curriculum design of the nursing program. These relationships are articulated through the strategic goals and plan, and should be clearly identifiable within the curriculum.

    In addition, many institutions identify a theory or set of theories that form a theoretical foundation for their curriculum. In today’s nursing education, it is often found that the theories used as a conceptual framework are not necessarily limited to nursing theories. Theory has been borrowed from education, sociology, and psychology to form a foundation for nursing curriculum. The main point is for the institution to validate that the theory they are using for their conceptual foundation is consistent with the mission, values, and philosophy of the institution and the nursing unit.

    • In Assessment 2, you will design a course to be included in the curriculum selected in this assessment.
    • In Assessment 3, you will examine the evaluation process used to evaluate the curriculum selected for this assessment.

    As a practicing nurse, you have been asked to present an evaluation of a nursing curriculum to a nursing leadership team at your place of employment. They are seeking input on coursework recommendations for CEU fulfillment. The curriculum you select should be of interest to you either personally or professionally.

    In this assessment, you will select a nursing curriculum either from an academic setting, such as a school of nursing, or a clinical setting, such as a hospital staff development program. If you are currently teaching, you may wish to use the curriculum from your school or workplace. If you are not currently teaching, you may want to consider using the curriculum from your undergraduate program. If neither is an option, you are encouraged to look for a nursing curriculum you can use as a model for your assessments. One choice might be an orientation curriculum for a clinical facility.

    You will evaluate the selected nursing curriculum in detail and describe the organizing design or theoretical framework on which your selected curriculum is based. You will also examine how this design or framework is demonstrated in the curriculum. Possible organizing designs or frameworks include simple-to-complex, stages of illness, nursing conceptual framework, concept-based, outcomes based, competency-based, interdisciplinary, and others.

    As you prepare to complete this assessment, you may want to think about other related issues to deepen your understanding or broaden your viewpoint. You are encouraged to consider the questions below and discuss them with a fellow learner, a work associate, an interested friend, or a member of your professional community. Note that these questions are for your own development and exploration and do not need to be completed or submitted as part of your assessment.

    • How do the mission, values, philosophy, and goals of an institution inform the development of a nursing curriculum?
    • In your experience, what types of curriculum designs commonly used to develop nursing curricula?
    • What characteristics of the intended audience for a nursing curriculum should inform development of the curriculum?
    • What is the difference between curriculum design and a theoretical framework for a nursing program? Should both be identified?

      Your overview and analysis of the curriculum should fulfill the following:

      • Identify an appropriate nursing curriculum, the intended learner population, and why it is needed.
      • Provide the mission statement and course descriptions for all courses in a selected curriculum.
      • Describe the established professional standards, guidelines, and competencies incorporated in the program.
      • Describe the student learning outcomes of a selected nursing program.
      • Recommend a process to update health care knowledge in a selected nursing curriculum.
      • Explain how an organizing design and theoretical framework or model is demonstrated within a selected nursing curriculum.
      • Provide an overview of the history of a selected organizing design and theoretical framework or model.
      • Describe the major concepts of a selected organizing design and theoretical framework or model.

      You will use this assessment to complete Assessment 3. Be sure to incorporate the feedback you receive before adding this assessment to Assessment 3.

    • References: Include references from at least three peer-reviewed journal articles, cited in proper APA format.
    • Length of analysis: The analysis should be 5-7 pages in length, not including the title page and the reference page, and it must follow proper APA style and formatting.
    • Appendix: You may use an appendix for appropriate material, such as individual course descriptions. The appendix will not be included in the page count for the analysis.
    • Font and font size: Times New Roman, 12 point.

    Requirements: 5-7 pg

  • Nursing Question

    Create a 5-7-page high-level teaching plan for a diverse learning environment that is designed around an appropriate educational theory

    intro:When beginning to design a course, nurse educators need to identify the learning theory or theories that will form the foundation of a course’s design, and to consider the needs of the population of learners who will take the course.

    Prepation:

    It is important to consider the role of diversity and learning environments when selecting appropriate theories and approaches for a desired learning outcome. For this assessment, you will implement these considerations in an educational environment of your choosing.

    • Take time to review educational theories that you have studied in prior courses or used in your work. Do additional research on educational theories and approaches as necessary.
    • Optional: Practice implementing these considerations in the Vila Health challenge provided in the Resources before beginning your work here.

    As you prepare to complete this assessment, you may want to think about other related issues to deepen your understanding or broaden your viewpoint. You are encouraged to consider the questions below and discuss them with a fellow learner, a work associate, an interested friend, or a member of your professional community.

    Note that these questions are for your own development and exploration and do not need to be completed or submitted as part of your assessment.

    • Think about some of the most effective educators you have learned with and from. What characteristics made these educators “good”?
    • How can nurse educators tailor their teaching methods in order to foster student engagement across multiple generations?
    • Have you ever completed a learning style inventory? If so, do you feel like it adequately assessed your learning style? Why or why not? (If you have not completed one, you might want to search for a free inventory online to see how its results align with your self-knowledge.)
    • How can you prepare yourself to be a culturally competent educator?

    Instructions:

    For this assessment, you will create a 57-page high-level teaching plan in which you do the following:

    • Select a topic for a course that you would like to teach in an educational environment. (For example, maybe you would like to be a nursing instructor in an institution of higher learning, a staff development educator in a clinical facility, or a patient educator in a hospital.) Briefly describe your course and the environment that you will utilize for teaching. Also describe the intended audience for your course.
    • Select an educational theory that you could use to guide the development of your course. Describe the key points of the theory you selected and explain why you think this theory fits the topic, audience, and context of your course.
      • Be sure to cite textbooks or articles from peer-reviewed journals to support your choice.
    • Identify and discuss potential diversity in the group that you anticipate teaching. (Diversity can include multiculturalism, age, gender, ethnicity, socioeconomic status, Limited English Proficiency (LEP), or other cultural barriers that you feel could impact your learning environment.)
    • Use current research to describe how you will address these issues in your learning environment.
    • Describe how you will manage conflict in the classroom that may arise from the anticipated diversity among learners
    • Format: 12-point Times New Roman or Arial font, double-spaced in Microsoft Word.
    • Length: 57 pages, plus a title page and a references page.
    • Use correct APA format, including running head, page numbers, and a title page.
    • Writing should be free of grammar and spelling errors that distract from content.

    Requirements: 5-7 pg

  • Intensive Case Study

    Mr. Kennedy arrived at the walk-in clinic with his 2-week-old infant, RK. Mr. Kennedy explained that his wife has been up all night with the baby so she stayed at the shelter to rest. Mr. Kennedy wants the infant to be seen due to concerns of poor feeding, irritability, and fussiness for the past two days. The father states the baby has been sleeping more than usual and refuses to take the breast as consistently as before. He reports a slight cough and noticed the baby is breathing faster than normal. Due to the parents current housing and transportation situation, access to regular prenatal care was limited, and the father is unsure about the mothers Group B Streptococcus (GBS) status. They have been staying in an overcrowded shelter with many other families.

    1. What additional information will you need to obtain from Mr. Kennedy for the HPI?
    2. What assessments would you need to complete for RK based on the information that you have so far?

    Your initial assessment of the infant reveals that RK is lethargic, irritable, and fussy with a bluish tint around the lips. You auscultate bilateral coarse crackles, wheezing, and grunting with decreased breath sounds in the lower lobes. Respiratory rate 70 breaths/minute, heart rate 160, regular rhythm no murmurs, O2 88% RA. You note Tachypnea with nasal flaring and mild intercostal retractions. Rectal temperature 101.4F. Abdomen is soft, non-distended, non-tender to palpation, normal bowel sounds x4 quadrants.

    1. As you assess the infant you document normal and abnormal findings.

    Based on your primary assessment:

    1. What are the abnormal findings?
    2. What are the normal findings?
    3. Based on the abnormal findings what other assessments would you perform?
    4. Would you ask additional HPI questions based on the abnormal findings?
    5. What labs would you order for RK? Why?
    6. What diagnostic tests would you order for RK? Why?
    7. What are 3-5 differential diagnoses you are considering for RK?

    Based on your findings you order stat labs CBC, CMP, CXR.

    1. What are the normal ranges for this 2-week-old patient for Pathogen Swabs, CBC, CMP, CRP, and CXR?
    • CBC:
    • CMP:
    • CXR:
    • CRP:
    • Swabs:
    1. A Respiratory diagnosis is a concern for this patient. What order(s) would you prioritize to plan to manage the patient as you await the test results?
    2. What are some family / socioeconomic concerns that you may have in regard to RKs medical care, recovery, parental education, referrals, and overall health?
    3. Based on all of the data that you collected, what are your top 3 differential diagnoses and what is your final diagnosis?

    *** Remember to include in-text citations for any references, along with a title page and reference page. The question-and-answer format is acceptable, however, APA is still expected.

    CASE STUDY: Depression

    Review of Mental Health/Psychiatric Symptoms

    J.D. is currently being treated by his primary care provider with Zoloft 50 mg orally, daily for generalized depression.

    He does have a history of seeking out a psychotherapist for treatment 3 years ago, but now is being followed by his primary care provider. His primary care began treatment with the SSRI 6 months ago.

    He denied any history of mania or hypomania.

    He denies any history of anxiety.

    There was no personal or family history of an eating disorder, attention deficit, or hyperactivity.

    He does not endorse past traumatic experiences or times when he was treated badly. He has said that he grew up very poor and raised by his mother who was a single parent.

    He has never experienced impaired perceptions, no hallucinations, auditory or visual, no delusions or paranoia.

    There is no evidence of thought disorder.

    His thoughts are organized and logical, and judgment and insight are good.

    No SI, no HI, no history of self-harm or suicide attempts.

    He drinks alcohol occasionally but has never experienced withdrawal symptoms or sought services for substance use disorder.

    He denies the use of other substances.

    Assessment

    J.D. is a 46-year-old married, white father of two school aged children. He and his husband are also partnering in a small grocery store business. He shares that the business is doing well, and his children are happy and healthy. His relationship with his husband has never been stronger.

    He meets diagnostic criteria for MDD (recurrent) with current symptoms of low energy, and hypersomnia during the day and insomnia at night.

    He denies anxiety symptoms.

    He is feeling a little better with the Zoloft but thought he would be feeling better by now. He says the insomnia is the major reason he is here. He said that he needs his sleep to care for the kids and run the store. He explains that even though his energy level has improved, the burden of running the store is on his partner and that is not fair to him. He does not endorse hopelessness and does not have SI. He is asking about increasing the Zoloft. He explains that the PCP told him that he was on a very low dose.

    He is also considering going back to the therapist for more sessions if necessary.

    He states the days that he takes the children to the park increase his socialization with neighbors and increase his energy and sense of well-being. On the other hand, working in the store with the customers every day can be emotionally and physically draining because he is always trying to provide good customer service with a smile.

    Diagnosis and Follow-Up

    Major depressive disorder (MDD).

    The plan may include obtaining electrolytes, CBC with differential, and thyroid panel to rule out organic causes of symptoms.

    Schedule an appointment with the prescribing provider of the Zoloft for evaluation of response to the medication and the possibility of increasing the dose. He is interested in increasing the dose of his Zoloft, which is reasonable.

    The prescribing clinician would review the expected response to SSRI, including that it takes about 4 to 6 weeks for optimal effects, and has possible adverse effects.

    What is the first-line recommended treatment for mild to moderate depressive symptoms?

    Using the monoamine hypothesis, how can the clinician explain the reasons for depression?

    After performing an assessment for depression, what are two items that are imperative to add to the assessment when the patient is found to be depressed?
