1.1 Non-Discrimination

Marriage and family therapists provide professional assistance to persons without discrimination on the basis of race, age, ethnicity, socioeconomic status, disability, gender, health status, religion, national origin, sexual orientation, gender identity or relationship status.

 A Christian therapist whose personal beliefs do not support alternative lifestyles is assigned to work with a gay couple. One member of the couple is in male to female transition. The therapist would seek supervision and consultation in regards to how to support the goals of their clients without imposition of their personal beliefs. Discrimination: The therapist cannot refer out simply because they are uncomfortable or do not agree with a client’s sexual orientation, gender identity, or relationship status.

Discrimination in Employment Act
Age Discrimination in Employment Act
This assignment will help you understand the Age Discrimination in Employment Act of 1967.

The Age Discrimination in Employment Act prohibits employment discrimination on the basis of age for anyone over the age of 40. This kind of legislation, like other types of anti-discriminatory legislation, will not end all discrimination. However, such laws clearly state society’s values.

Using the South University Online Library or the Internet, research about the Age Discrimination in Employment Act. Based on your research, create a 4- to 5-page paper in a Microsoft Word document that includes answers to the following questions:

Which demographic groups are protected by this Act?
Which types of discrimination are prohibited under the Act?
Is the Act still relevant for seniors today? If yes, how? If not, why not? Provide examples.
What amendments are required to the Act as more baby boomers age?
Has this Act affected any of the minority groups in US? If no, why not? If yes, how?

Hormone Replacement Therapy

/in /by

Discussion

Hormone Replacement Therapy

In recent years, hormone replacement therapy has become a controversial issue. When prescribing therapies, advanced practice nurses must weigh the strengths and limitations of the prescribed supplemental hormones. If advanced practice nurses determine that the limitations outweigh the strengths, then they might suggest alternative treatment options such as herbs or other natural remedies, changes in diet, and increase in exercise.

Consider the following scenario:

  • As an advanced practice nurse at a      community health clinic, you often treat female (and sometimes male      patients) with hormone deficiencies. One of your patients requests that      you prescribe supplemental hormones. This poses the questions: How will      you determine what kind of treatment to suggest? What patient factors      should you consider? Are supplemental hormones the best option for the      patient, or would they benefit from alternative treatments?

To prepare:

  • Review Chapter 56 of the Arcangelo      and Peterson text, as well as the Holloway and Makinen and Huhtaniemi      articles in the Learning Resources.
  • Review the provided scenario and      reflect on whether or not you would support hormone replacement therapy.
  • Locate and review additional articles      about research on hormone replacement therapy for women and/or men.      Consider the strengths and limitations of hormone replacement therapy.
  • Based on your research of the      strengths and limitations, again reflect on whether or not you would      support hormone replacement therapy.
  • Consider whether you would prescribe      supplemental hormones or recommend alternative treatments to patients with      hormone deficiencies.

With these thoughts in mind:

Post a description of the strengths and limitations of hormone replacement therapy. Based on these strengths and limitations, explain why you would or why you would not support hormone replacement therapy. Explain whether you would prescribe supplemental hormones or recommend alternative treatments to patients with hormone deficiencies and why.

This work should have Introduction and conclusion

– This work should have at 3 to 5current references (Year 2012 and up)

– Use at least 2 references from class Learning Resources

/in /by

Question description

Hello, I need help with this assignment. I need a qualitative research article addressing my PICOT question and then an essay.

PICOT question: In heart failure patients discharged from the hospital would the teach back discharge method compared to just written discharge instructions decrease readmission to the hospital within 30 days?

Use the practice problem and a qualitative, peer-reviewed research article you identified in the Topic 1 assignment to complete this assignment.

In a 1000-1,250 word essay, summarize the study, explain the ways in which the findings might be used in nursing practice, and address ethical considerations associated with the conduct of the study.

To write a critical appraisal that demonstrates comprehension of the research study conducted, address each component below for qualitative study in the Topic 2 assignment and the quantitative study in the Topic 3 assignment.

here are the instructions given

To write a critical appraisal that demonstrates comprehension of the research study conducted, address each component below for qualitative study in the Topic 2 assignment and the quantitative study in the Topic 3 assignment.

Successful completion of this assignment requires that you provide a rationale, include examples, or reference content from the study in your responses.

Qualitative Study

Background of Study:

-Identify the clinical problem and research problem that led to the study. What was not known about the clinical problem that, if understood, could be used to improve health care delivery or patient outcomes? This gap in knowledge is the research problem.

-How did the author establish the significance of the study? In other words, why should the reader care about this study? Look for statements about human suffering, costs of treatment, or the number of people affected by the clinical problem.

-Identify the purpose of the study. An author may clearly state the purpose of the study or may describe the purpose as the study goals, objectives, or aims.

-List research questions that the study was designed to answer. If the author does not explicitly provide the questions, attempt to infer the questions from the answers.

-Were the purpose and research questions related to the problem?

Method of Study:

-Were qualitative methods appropriate to answer the research questions?

-Did the author identify a specific perspective from which the study was developed? If so, what was it?

-Did the author cite quantitative and qualitative studies relevant to the focus of the study? What other types of literature did the author include?

-Are the references current? For qualitative studies, the author may have included studies older than the 5-year limit typically used for quantitative studies. Findings of older qualitative studies may be relevant to a qualitative study

-Did the author evaluate or indicate the weaknesses of the available studies?

-Did the literature review include adequate information to build a logical argument?

-When a researcher uses the grounded theory method of qualitative inquiry, the researcher may develop a framework or diagram as part of the findings of the study. Was a framework developed from the study findings?

Results of Study

-What were the study findings?

-What are the implications to nursing?

-Explain how the findings contribute to nursing knowledge/science. Would this impact practice, education, administration, or all areas of nursing?

Ethical Considerations

-Was the study approved by an Institutional Review Board?

-Was patient privacy protected?

-Were there ethical considerations regarding the treatment or lack of?

Conclusion

-Emphasize the importance and congruity of the thesis statement.

-Provide a logical wrap-up to bring the appraisal to completion and to leave a lasting impression and take-away points useful in nursing practice.

-Incorporate a critical appraisal and a brief analysis of the utility and applicability of the findings to nursing practice.

-Integrate a summary of the knowledge learned.

prepare a paper discussing a medical malpractice case using the DIRAC (issue, rule, analysis, conclusion) formula. You will discuss any relevant ethical theories involved and analyze the outcome

/in /by

 

 

prepare a paper discussing a medical malpractice case using the DIRAC (issue, rule, analysis, conclusion) formula. You will discuss any relevant ethical theories involved and analyze the outcome.

You should be thinking about your case and start your research by Module Three. By Module Five, you should finalize your choice of a reported case for your project. In the Module Five journal activity, you will be asked to briefly discuss your chosen case and provide an outline for your project. The final project is due at the end of Module Seven.

In this assignment, you will demonstrate your mastery of the following course outcomes:

Analyze why knowledge of the legal system is important for healthcare professionals, including the distinctions between the law, ethics, and bioethics

Compare and contrast ethical theories and discuss decision-making models applicable to healthcare providers

Examine the legal environment in healthcare, including the physician-patient relationship, medical records and patient confidentiality, and professional liability and medical malpractice

Explore the laws impacting the delivery of healthcare, including PHILIPA, the False Claims Act, the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act, and laws impacting the workplace

Analyze the role of professional regulation, the standard of care, and codes of ethics in healthcare providers’ accountability to self, their profession, their patients, and the public

Analyze specific legal, ethical, and bio ethical issues faced by healthcare administrators, providers, and researchers, including protection of life, the right to self-determination, and end-of-life issues

Prompt

The first step of the project is to locate a medical malpractice case that interests you. The case can involve malpractice or negligence claims against any type of healthcare provider—for example, a doctor, nurse, dentist, or chiropractor or an institutional provider such as a hospital, nursing home, or rehab facility. The case you choose must be from a published decision of the court (rather than a case reported in a secondary source, such as a newspaper or internet article).

Published decisions are primary sources of law that create precedent for other courts to follow in similar cases. For more information about judicial decisions, and for help on where to find them, visit the Library of Congress Law Library.

Review these malpractice decisions to get familiar with the structure and format of a typical court decision:

Deane v. Mount Sinai Hospital

Carpenter v. North Shore University Hospital

These cases were found by searching the New York Official Reports website using the terms “medical malpractice” and “wrongful death.” To locate the published court decisions in your state, browse the resources available at the Library of Congress Law Library or visit FindLaw’s Cases and Codes section, which contains resources and links for cases by state.

It is easier to find medical malpractice cases in state court as opposed to federal court, so you may want to start with cases in your local state court. As you get further into your research, you will discover that some court opinions are short, and some are much longer and contain significantly more detail. For this assignment, it is important to choose a case that not only interests you but also contains a detailed description of the facts and circumstances so you have enough information for your analysis. The two examples provided above are good samples of the kind of opinion you should try to find. When researching cases, make sure the one you ultimately select contains enough information about the case to address each of the bullet points below. Your paper should contain three parts:

Part I: Introduction

In this part, describe your case, including the parties, the facts, and the claims asserted.

Part II: Analysis

This part is your analysis and should make up the majority of your paper. This section should be written in the DIRAC format. Click here for a description of the DIRAC model. Your analysis should discuss the evidence on both sides of the case and the defenses asserted by the defendant healthcare provider. This section should also identify and analyze the ethical theories involved and how they did or did not impact the decision.

Part III: Variation

In this part, discuss how and why the outcome would have changed if the facts or evidence had been different. For example, if the plaintiff won the case, discuss a defense that, if available to the defendant, would have changed the outcome (for example, if the defendant could prove the plaintiff filed his claim after the statute of limitations had expired).

DESCRIBE THE IMPORTANCE OF YOUR RESEARCH QUESTION TO THE FIELD OF FORENSIC PSYCHOLOGY.

/in /by

DESCRIBE THE IMPORTANCE OF YOUR RESEARCH QUESTION TO THE FIELD OF FORENSIC PSYCHOLOGY.

Assignment 3: Choosing the Research Paper Topic and Developing an Annotated Bibliography

Part 1: Choosing a Research Topic

From your examination of the literature dealing with the three topics of interest to you through M1 Assignment 1, narrow down your focus to the one topic that interests you the most. Be sure to choose a topic that is a driving force in contemporary forensic psychology and associated services.

Once you choose a topic, you should condense it and state it in the form of a research question or a thesis statement. Explain the topic in terms of its importance in the field. Your topic must be narrow so that you can adequately cover the topic in a 15- to 25-page paper. (For example, posttraumatic stress disorder [PTSD] would be far too broad a topic. A more focused topic within this might be researching the efficacy of cognitive behavioral therapy in treating returning veterans with PTSD.)

Provide a 1- to 2-page overview of your topic, illustrating how it is a current and important topic in forensic psychology.

All written assignments and responses should follow APA rules for attributing sources.

Note: Your instructor will approve or provide you feedback on the chosen topic. In cases where there are other students studying the same topic, the instructor will consult with you about modifying the topic or even selecting another one.

Part 2: Building an Annotated Bibliography

This part of the assignment focuses on building an annotated bibliography for your chosen research topic.

Throughout this module, expand your research by including a minimum of twelve peer-reviewed scholarly resources and the contact information for one expert interview (the interview can be conducted via e-mail or telephone or in person at a later date).

Your research should include a combination of the following types of sources:

  • Empirical research—including at least one example of qualitative research
  • Theoretical articles
  • At least one expert interview
  • At least two landmark studies

Note: While minimums are specified above, you are encouraged to include more than one expert interview, one qualitative research study, or two landmark studies to create the right balance of studies to effectively address your topic.

You may visit the page titled “Researching Your Chosen Topic” in Module 1 to read more about sources relevant to your research paper.

Expert Interview

(Schedule this early in the course.)

Use the Argosy University online library resources to find, explore, and research these types of sources. To identify an appropriate expert for a personal interview, look for an author of one of the articles that you find interesting; this should be an author you would consider an interesting person to interview, especially if you were left with some questions after reading a particular study he or she had authored. You may also find this author interesting if his or her views contradict what other scholars have found about your topic.

Faculty members of Argosy University around the country, other universities, and forensic areas of education and service are also good choices for interviews.

These personal interviews may be conducted in person, by phone, or by e-mail, as necessary.

Create your annotated bibliography in a Microsoft Word document. Use APA style for compiling the bibliography and developing the annotations. The annotations should summarize the reference in no more than two sentences, and a final sentence should explain the relationship between the study and the research topic. Be sure to indicate which type of study each source is (empirical, qualitative, theoretical, landmark, or expert interview).

All written assignments and responses should follow APA rules for attributing sources.
