    THIS IS THE PAPER I CHOSE.MAMMAMAART/iSTOCK

    Safety Alert: IN 2012, 27,380 U.S. healthcare workers were injured in nonfatal workplace injuries. According to the Bureau of Labor Statistics, healthcare facilities with more than 1,000 employees have an average of 5.5 nonfatal injuries annually.1 Between 2009 and 2011, eight RNs were fatally injured at work.2 (See Startling statistics.) Many nurses are routinely exposed to violent behavior such as shouting, cursing, spitting, biting, pulling, pushing, scratching, threats to themselves and their loved ones, and actual physical assaults with hands, fists, weapons, or objects within the assailant’s reach.3 All too often, nurses fail to report these episodes of violence because they erroneously consider it to be “part of the job.” Consequently, managers and administrators may be unaware of the extent of risk to nurses and fail to initiate corrective action. For their personal safety and the protection of patients, visitors, and other staff, nurses must recognize signs of behavior escalating toward violence. This article discusses how to recognize signs of escalating behavior and what to do to defuse the situation effectively and safely. Violence: Getting down to basics Violence is the intentional act of aggression, verbal abuse, threatening behavior, and/or physical assault. The intended goal is to threaten, control, coerce, intimidate, humiliate, silence, ostracize, demean, or otherwise emotionally or physically injure the victim. 3,4 The focus of this article is threatened or actual physical violence within healthcare facilities. Although anyone can be a victim of violence, people in certain healthcare positions, such as clinical nurses and unlicensed assistive personnel, may be routinely exposed to acts of violence. Nursing personnel who work in the ED, ICU, and psychiatric or long-term care units are most at risk for experiencing routine episodes of violence on the job Protecting yourself and others from violence By Charlotte Davis, BSN, RN, CCRN; Denise Landon, BSN, RN, CMSC; and Kandie Brothers, MSN, RN, CNL Copyright © 2015 Lippincott Williams & Wilkins. Unauthorized reproduction of this article is prohibited. www.Nursing2015.com January l Nursing2015 l 57 from patients, family members, or visitors.3 Patient substance abuse and cognitive impairment can increase the risk of violence for staff. Identifying levels of stress The Veterans Administration Health Care 2014 Prevention and Management of Disruptive Behavior (PMDB) program teaches that potentially violent behavior escalates through four levels of stress: normal, moderate, severe, and panic level.3,4 In some circumstances, a person can transition rapidly from a normal stress level to panic level. This potential requires nurses to refine their escalation assessment skills and to develop a plan with the employer and coworkers to safely manage the perpetrator’s escalating behavior and ensure everyone’s safety. See Four levels of stress: Assessment and intervention for warning signs and interventions appropriate for each stress level. When confronted with signs of moderate escalation, avoid arguing with the agitated patient or visitor. Raising your voice to match the tone and volume of the other person’s voice can trigger escalation to a higher stress level and increase the likelihood of physical violence. If the person seems to perceive you as a threat, remove yourself from the situation. If you can safely do so, introduce a neutral party to speak with the person and try to deescalate the behavior. If a patient’s family or visitor becomes disruptive in the patient’s room, consider asking the person to step outside the room or press the call light to signal the need for assistance, depending on the situation. Don’t remain in the room with the hostile individual because of the risk of physical injury. Follow facility safety policies and procedures if the person’s behavior continues to escalate. For example, most facility policies include a provision for notifying security or a house supervisor or management team member immediately; that designated person may then call law enforcement if needed. Nurses should program their healthcare facility’s security office and 911 into their cell phone speed dial. Consider developing a code word, such as “purple,” that signifies a need for assistance because of an escalating situation. All staff members should be educated on what the code word is and what actions to take in response. If you’re isolated and in imminent danger, find alternative ways to draw attention to the location, such as activating a panic button, yelling for assistance, and pulling a fire alarm or accessing an automated external defibrillator (AED). When accessed, some AEDs activate an alarm to locate the emergency. Check to see if this is an option where you work. Report and document all incidents of potential or actual violence according to facility policy. This information will help managers and administrators take action to maintain the culture of safety that staff, patients, and staff are entitled to. Minimizing risks: Watch for weapons Some healthcare facilities allow staff to review and itemize a patient’s personal possessions upon admission. If permitted to itemize possessions by facility policy, the nurse can look for obvious and potential weapons at this time. Guns, stun guns, knives, and other items that could be used to penetrate the skin should be confiscated and locked in a secure location until the patient’s discharge per your facility’s policy. Be aware that some innocentlooking items can be used as weapons; for example: • a cane can be modified to make a sword with a potentially long, lethal blade. Gestures such as shaking a fist and prolonged staring signal escalating, potentially violent behavior. Startling statistics Results of the Emergency Nurses Association’s 2011 Emergency Department Violence Surveillance Study revealed that almost 70% of respondents had been physically threatened, 52% had been physically assaulted, and 40% had been involved in a violent situation at their job in which a weapon was utilized. Of those routinely exposed to physical violence, about 17% experienced the behavior more than four times a week. Nurses failed to report physical violence in 66% of these cases because they believed that violence was just “part of the job.”6 Failure to file a timely formal incident report may allow the perpetrator to victimize others and place the nurse at risk for uncompensated medical treatment for any injuries suffered during the violent incident. Underreporting also can prevent the facility’s administrative and safety and quality management teams from recognizing and addressing the presence and severity of staff members’ routine exposure to violence. Employers may be cited by the Occupational Safety and Health Administration if they fail to ”prevent or abate a recognized violence hazard in the workplace.”7 Copyright © 2015 Lippincott Williams & Wilkins. Unauthorized reproduction of this article is prohibited. 58 l Nursing2015 l January www.Nursing2015.com • both flashlights and cell phones can be modified to make a gun or stun gun.5 Nurses should be suspicious if an object seems heavier than it should be or shows signs of alteration, such as screws or reinforcement at joints, and contact the security team to have the item inspected. A nurse confronted with an escalating person who’s armed with any type of weapon should immediately evacuate the area and retreat to a safe place, then notify hospital security and/or call 911. The nurse should never try to intervene with someone armed with a weapon. Besides obvious weapons, many items found within a healthcare facility can be used as a weapon because of convenience and proximity. These include telephone cords, holepunch devices, examination lamps, plants, electrical devices, pens, tables, and chairs. When the nurse observes escalating behavior, he or she should begin to calmly remove these items out of sight or away from the person’s reach, if this can be done safely. Many items nurses wear or carry are also potential weapons; for example, a stethoscope, pen, eyeglasses, dangling jewelry, and lanyards. Even lanyards with breakaway clasps can be used to strangle a nurse if the aggressor grasps the breakaway clasp. During periods of panic-level escalation, nurses with long hair should put their hair up in a ponytail, twist their hair into a bun, or tuck long hair underneath the back of their shirt. An agitated person can grasp loose long hair and use it to control the nurse’s head, resulting in a whiplash injury, blunt force trauma to the head, or even strangulation. Control the environment By managing the environment, nurses can help defuse potentially dangerous behavior or minimize the consequences. Following these guidelines can help prevent escalation of aggressive behavior and minimize the risk of injury. • Pay attention to early signs of escalation and intervene at the lowest level of stress. (See Making “GAINS” against escalating behavior.) • Remove unnecessary staff, patients, and visitors to minimize the “audience.” Some aggressors will calm down without an audience. • Remove any excess furniture, plants, and decorative items that could be used as a weapon or thrown. • Decrease the noise level and other environmental stimuli in patient-care areas. Increased environmental stimuli and high noise levels can trigger anxiety attacks and posttraumatic stress disorder exacerbations.

Estimating the Benefits and Costs of Your Choices

ESTIMATING THE BENEFITS AND COSTS OF YOUR CHOICES

Estimating the Benefits and Costs of Your Choices

According to studies of graduates of bachelor-degree programs in psychology, entry-level positions tend to pay relatively little and may be relatively unsatisfying. Although the positions, pay, and reported job satisfaction of psychology majors tend to significantly improve many years after graduation, those who enter the workforce immediately upon graduation risk at least a few years of less-than-satisfactory employment (Landrum & Elison-Bowers, 2009; Rajecki & Borden, 2011).

Although graduate school can be a route to a better paying, more satisfying job and career, it is quite expensive. According to the APA (2003), a doctoral degree results in most students entering into debts worth $50,000 to $75,000 or even more. The median debt incurred for a master’s degree is approximately $25,000 (Kantrowitz, 2011).

Using your textbook, the Internet, and the Argosy University online library resources, research choices such as entering the workforce immediately upon graduation or enrolling in a graduate school. On the basis of your research, respond to the following:

  • Select one of the options: entering the workforce upon graduation or attending graduate school. Identify at least five benefits and at least five risks associated your chosen option. For example, if you choose to enter the workforce immediately upon graduation, identify the benefits and risks of doing so. Cite at least two sources of this information.
  • Design a Microsoft PowerPoint presentation illustrating the risks and benefits. Include at least one graph, chart, or table to add to the presentation’s visual appeal.
    • If you have chosen to enter the workforce, imagine you are designing the presentation for a job fair at which you are a recruiter trying to convince new graduates of undergraduate programs to work for your organization.
    • If you have chosen to enter graduate school, imagine you are designing the presentation for a professional conference where you hope to recruit undergraduate seniors to apply to your graduate program.
    • Include one slide with a speech or a persuasive narrative, in your own words, to persuade students or recent graduates to make one choice (join the workforce or enter graduate school).
    • Include at least one slide addressing recent trends in the job market and analyzing whether this is an optimal time to enter the workforce or to continue your studies in graduate school.
    • Include at least one slide addressing the pitfalls recent graduates from bachelor’s degree programs face and how best to avoid those challenges. One pitfall must be related to the financial risk of or the debt incurred as a result of making each choice (joining the workforce and continuing school).
  • Support your statements with information from academic sources, one of which can be your textbook. Be sure to include in-text citations and a reference list on the final slides of the presentation.

Practicum Proposal for MSN – leadership student

Question descriptionDescription:

This is a case study of a student who is in the last semester of her master’s in nursing in nursing leadership. In order to proceed with the practicum, she must present a “practicum proposal”. The practicum proposal is a scholarly paper that must be written in APA format with perfect grammar, as it will be presented to her professor and preceptor. The entire paper should have a tone that constantly refers to the importance of EBP in nursing leadership. Please have a title page and a reference page, and include at least 5 references that have been written within the last 5 years.

Practicum details:

Student: 30 year old female BSN/RN, finishing her master’s degree in health systems leadership.

Preceptor: COO with an MBA, MSN (nursing), and has held several nursing leadership positions.

Setting: The setting of this practicum is in the Hospice/Palliative care/Home health. The agency provides all those services.

Required sections of the paper & details:

SECTION 1 – Introduction. I finished the first paragraph of the introduction. Please complete the second paragraph of the introduction, and describe the reason why the essay is being written. Below is the first section that I completed:

The growth of the nursing profession over the last several decades can be described as impressive. The nurse’s expanding and developing role in the complex healthcare environment is awe inspiring to say the least. Nurses’ have gone from providing bedside care in the trenches of society, to clinical specialist, and now regarded as proven leaders in the board room. Due to this growth and rapid development, the nurse’s role continues to be pioneered, developed, and refined. Most recently, and most notably, nurses with advanced degrees and clinical specialties are continuously pioneering the restructuring of their role within healthcare systems. For this reason, the practical aspect of a nurse’s education continues to be essential in the process of bridging the gap between theoretical education and its implementation at the point-of-care. The practical aspect of nursing education has historically relied on the nurse-preceptor to assist the student-nurse in the processes of synthesizing the learned theoretical principles into their practice. As a result of this vital role filled by the nurse-preceptor, the preceptor-student interaction must continue to develop within the principles of Evidence Based Practice (EBP), and held to the same standards as that of theoretical nursing education.

SECTION 2- Goals of the practicum. Described the goals of the practicum. AKA what will the graduate student nursing leader learn from the practicum (paragraph 1). Goals should be written from the perspective of the student, clearly stated and relate to the practicum objective and specialty track outcomes.

Please describe at least 5 goals of the practicum in a table with the SMART goals format.

SECTION 3- Anticipated activities to meet goals should be described. (See provided information in the last section as reference point).

SECTION 4 – Describe the role of the preceptor during the practicum. Including practicum project and activities.

SECTION 5 – Describe the setting. Please infer from provided information.

SECTION 6 – Project proposal: The student in this case study is required to conduct a project. The student in this case study has been assigned by her preceptor to work with the director of the home health division of the organization. The project will be for the student to assist the director of the home health division of the organization in the process of being a nursing leader which includes all of the daily aspects of nursing leadership like budget development, managing staff, marketing, scheduling, billing, etc.

SECTION 5 – Discussion/conclusion.

The purpose of this assignment is to benefit from the perspective of a leader in the area of business operations and administration. This can be where you currently work or have access to members of the leadership team. You are asked to use the same area of business operations and administration you researched for the Case Assignment. This will allow you to see what you learned from your research in a real-world application. (Note: you will not be asked to reveal any proprietary or confidential information in your reports. Most of your reports will be based on your observations.)

Prepare and submit a paper responding to the following items:

Provide an overview of the business operations and administration area you have chosen.
Based on the research you have conducted for both the Case and SLP assignments, create a table that illustrates the similarities and differences in trends between the research conducted for the Case Assignment. Analyze and discuss the findings shown in the table. This analysis should include both quantitative and qualitative approaches to analyzing the data.
