ntegrating Instructions: Assignment on Heart Failure Guidelines

For the Integrating section of the module on the Cardiovascular System, you will engage in an assignment focused on heart failure guidelines, compensatory mechanisms, and their limitations. Follow these instructions to complete the assignment:

Assignment #1: Heart Failure Guidelines and Compensatory Mechanisms

Instructions:

1. Locate Heart Failure Guidelines:

DQ # 1 Imogene King Conceptual System and Theory of Goal Attainment

initial post begins at 12 pm on Sunday and responses are due on Friday. Review the syllabus and DQ Rubric.

Imogene Kings philosophical position is rooted in General Systems Theory of Goal of Attainment which provides a holistic approach to the study of nursing phenomena. She is one of Nursings earliest theorists.

You are being asked to explain Imogene King Conceptual System and Theory of Goal Attainment (Please do not write a synopsis, review the DQ Rubric for the grading of the best response). During the review of the theory, the metaparadigm of the theory must be included. The metaparadigm of nursing is a framework that guides nursing practice. Explain how this theorist view: Nursing, Health, Person and Environment. Please note that it is your job to determine if each theorist described the 4 elements of the metaparadigm in the theory). All DQs must include a review of at least one scholarly article in which the theory has been described.

Once you have explained the theory, demonstate the metaparadigm use in this theory and demonstrate how Imogene King Conceptual System and Theory of Goal Attainment theory can be used in your current practice and in advanced practice.

Please note, all DQ discussions in NUR 5015 MUST begin with an Introduction and a Conclusion. Please do not use I or We in this scholarly discussion (noted in the syllabus). You are able to use pronouns in your responses to your classmates.

Students often use headings to guide their discussion; Examples of level of heading are available in the APA 7 manual.

Please write an introduction and conclusion paragraph for all DQ’s in this course. APA 7 is the expected reference format in this course.

Review the sociological concepts and theories you have learned about in this course, focusing especially on the readings in your Sociology: The Essentials textbook, and review one or more of the examples in this reading list to see the different sociological approaches to field research

Download the and save it to your computer in a place for easy access.Start your field research by completing one observation, following these guidelines for your second observation:

• Focus on observing two or more social interactions between two or more people. For this observation, you can choose from many possible settings: (1) a public setting (a park, grocery store, library, shopping mall, et cetera), (2) a social event, such as a birthday party, family dinner, or book club meeting, or (3) a place where you work or volunteer. The interactions can take place in person or via an online meeting environment (such as a Zoom or Teams meeting). Try to be as objective as possible as you observe but be aware of how your own biases or experiences might shape your conclusions.
• Spend at least 30 minutes observing in your chosen setting.
• Use a sociological perspective to observe people’s behavior in the setting you have chosen. Below are some questions you can use to guide your observations and note-taking:
  • What social interactions do you see? As you observe, consider both verbal and nonverbal communication and people’s use of space.
  • Do you notice any role or status differences affecting how people behave or interact?
  • How are people collaborating, managing conflict, and/or problem solving?
  • What norms (rules for social behavior) are apparent in the interactions you are observing? Also consider how the setting itself affects how people behave.
  • What social categories (such as gender, age, race or ethnicity, and social class) are relevant for understanding the interactions you’re observing?
  • What cultural elements influenced the interactions?
• As you observe, take notes (called field notes) in a notebook, phone, laptop, or tablet. These notes can include your observations as well as your thoughts about how those observations illustrate certain concepts or theories we’ve covered in this course.Follow the directions in the worksheet to complete each section, typing directly on the worksheet. Include answers to each question, and do not delete any instructions or questions.
  • Describe the setting that was observed.
  • Explain the influence of culture on a setting or individual or group behavior.
  • Describe a social interaction using a sociological concept or theory.
  • Explain an example of collaboration, conflict, or problem solving using a sociological concept or theory.
  • Write field notes that describe the setting, people, behaviors, and interactions observed.Your worksheet is the assessment submission and it should meet the following additional requirements:
    • Written communication:Write in a professional style while adhering to the rules of grammar, usage, and mechanics.
    • Resources:Consult the textbook and other course readings for definitions and descriptions of sociological concepts and theories.
    • APA formatting:Use for guidance in citing sources and formatting your worksheet in proper APA style. See the for more APA resources specific to your degree level.
    • Length:See the worksheet instructions. Field notes will depend on the length of the observation but should be at minimum more than half a typed page (single space).
    • Font and font size: Use a legible font such as Times New Roman 12-point, Arial 11-point, Georgia 11-point, or Calibri 11-point.
