professional Nursing Practice

Question descriptionPersonal and Professional Self-Development Plan

Consider the self-development plan as a business plan for your professional career development. Similar to a business plan, it should express your desired goals—both short term and long term—your objectives, and the resources you need. All the elements of the plan should allow you to monitor your progress.

This week, you will develop a personal and professional self-development plan that identifies your personal career goals along with the five integral components of professional practice, namely caring, communication, critical thinking, professionalism, and holism.

Your plan will consist of two parts:

Part 1: Personal Career Goals: Begin by identifying your career goals as your role in professional nursing practice evolves. Following this reflection, answer the questions given in the personal and professional self-development plan provided. Share your projected goals at three anchor points—three, five, and ten years.

Click here to download the personal and professional self-development plan.

Part 2: Professional Practice Components: In this section of the plan, identify specific professional practice components that you need to develop further and provide an action plan.

Support your responses with examples.

Discuss your thoughts and feelings on the nursing shortage

/in /by

Question description
In response to those of you that have never completed a nursing philosophy before, the original nursing philosophy required the following:
Just as in everything we do in life, nursing practice is guided by our values and beliefs. Sometimes these beliefs are hidden assumptions. For example, you may become more aware of how important truth and honesty are to you after you have been given information by someone that misleads you into making a poor decision.
Being clear about our values is very important for nurses. We are then better able to make our values known and visible in our work lives. To identify our beliefs related to nursing practice, thinking about and writing out a philosophy of nursing is needed. In this way, we can make our approach to nursing practice in purposeful, thoughtful, ethical, and compassionate ways.
Keep these thoughts in mind as you write your philosophy of nursing. That is, what do you believe about person, health, environment and nursing? Write your philosophy in a way that makes clear what you mean about the four domains or metaparadigm of nursing:

  1. Define a person, any person, not just a nurse or a patient. What is the essence of a person?
  2. What is a person’s environment? Does it include elements both internal and external, or only external? Give examples of what these elements are.
  3. What is health and how is illness related to health? Is health a continuum with absolutes at either end of the continuum, is it a dichotomy: either good or bad? Is it a state which includes illness?
  4. What is the central reason for the existence of nursing?
  5. Write a summary paragraph explaining how these elements work together to make your approach to nursing purposeful, competent, and conscientious.

If you are drafting your philosophy for the first time, you will not be able to reflect upon how your philosophy has changed but be sure to address your vision for the future of nursing in addition to how your values and beliefs have shaped your philosophy.
If you are an HCA/HIT student, remember you will be drafting a management philosophy addressing the questions outlined in the syllabus.
Have a good week and remember, the philosophy assignment is due on Sunday, July 29th.
NB: this question below is a discussion board.
In response to this week’s reading assignments, please select 2 of the following questions to respond to. Please post your response and discuss with your peers.
1. In light of your readings, consider cultural diversity both from an organizational perspective and employee perspective, what strategies can health care leaders/managers employ to manage a diverse staff.
2. Consider various staffing issues such centralized and decentralized staffing, informal and formal networks, and the importance of forming relationships, networks and alliances within the health care delivery system. Describe the importance of these within your role as a future health care manager/leader and identify some key advantages/disadvantages associated with each.
3. Discuss your thoughts and feelings on the nursing shortage. Consider the relationship between nursing care hours, staffing mix, and quality of care. Discuss how you feel this impacts health care delivery systems positively or negatively and how. Consider the implications of the nursing shortage from a health care leader/manager perspective. What strategies can you recommend to help address concerns?

Locate an example of a policy or guideline from an external source to a healthcare organization.

Locate an example of a policy or guideline from an external source to a healthcare organization. Explain how this policy or guideline may be a constraint to a healthcare organization’s planning, or how it may shape the healthcare organization’s philosophy. For example, given that the American Academy of Pediatrics offers guidelines on child vaccinations, these guidelines might impact the ability of the healthcare organization to deliver services to newborns and infants. Using a similar example, as well as the characteristics of effective plans as your framework, discuss how proper planning can help organizations in their future decision making.; ; The control process involves three phases that are cyclic: establishing standards, measuring performance, and correcting deviations. Examine the manner in which health care leaders progress through each phase of the control process to manage organizations. What is the management function of controlling as related to performance improvement? What tools are used to measure and monitor performance? Please describe at least two functions and two tools in your response.;

examine research related to the impact that digital devices have on the physical development of your selected age group.

/in /by

 
Discussion: Physical Development
According to the President’s Council on Fitness, Sports & Nutrition (n.d.), “only one in three children are physically active every day” and at least one contributor is the large number of hours children spend either watching television or playing video games. Recently, video games have been developed that offer physical interaction and activity to encourage more physical activity and develop fine motor skills. There are many other types of digital devices, some of which encourage physical activity and others that encourage relaxing behaviors.
In this Discussion, you select one type of digital device and a specific age group. You then examine research related to the impact that digital devices have on the physical development of your selected age group.
To Prepare for this Discussion:
· Review this week’s Learning Resources related to digital technology and its impact on physical development
· Consider and select one of the following digital devices:
· Game consoles
· Tablets
· Smartphones
· Laptops
· Fitness bands
· Digital sports cameras (e.g., GoPro)
· Select one of the following age groups: infants, children, adolescents, adults, older adults.
· Search the Internet and the Walden Library for at least two articles regarding the positive and negative impacts your selected digital device has on physical development of your selected age group
Post a summary of each of the articles you found. Explain the positive and negative impact your selected digital device has on the physical development of the age group you selected. Use proper APA format and citations.

Parenting and Substance Abuse

/in /by

 
Discussion: Parenting and Substance Abuse
As a social worker, you will meet children and adolescents who are in complicated family situations and may require a variety of resources for support. There are many times when these situations involve drug abuse, domestic violence, child abuse, and/or neglect. If these factors are present within a child’s or adolescent’s environment, it will impact their development. As mandated reporters, social workers are legally required to report any suspicion they have of child abuse or neglect to local authorities in an effort to ensure a healthier environment within which they can grow.
For this Discussion, review the case study “Working With Clients With Addictions: The Case of Barbara and Jonah.” Consider this week’s reading in the Learning Resources.
Post by Day 3 an explanation of influences of Barbara’s addiction on Jonah’s future development. Describe an intervention that you would use for Jonah if you were the social worker in this case. Please use the Learning Resources to support your answer.
