· Review this week’s Learning Resources, focusing on the gender-related differences and similarities in issues related to health.

Health statistics demonstrate that morbidity (sickness) and mortality (death) rates for specific diseases and other health issues (e.g., violence, accidents, homicide) are different for men and women. For example, men are diagnosed with and die from specific cancers, such as lung cancer and colon cancer, at higher rates than women do. Women are diagnosed with breast cancer at higher rates than men (though more than 1,000 men each year are diagnosed with breast cancer). While this difference in disease and disorder prevalence and mortality is interesting, it would be useful to know why there are differences between men and women.
Biological differences between men and women in areas such as hormones and immune response certainly can contribute to health differences between the sexes, but in order to fully explore their causes, other variables must be examined. An important area to consider when looking at health and gender is behavior. That is, do men and women behave differently when it comes to health? Health-related behaviors fall into two basic categories: preventative behaviors and direct health-related behaviors. For example, seeing a physician for an annual check-up and health screening, eating well, exercising, and maintaining low stress levels are preventative behaviors. Engaging in high-risk sports and smoking are direct health-related behaviors. Gender differences in health behaviors must be interpreted carefully. For example, frequency of doctor visits—which is higher among women—should not necessarily be interpreted as a reliable indicator of higher morbidity in women, since women tend to engage in more preventative health behaviors.
A second group of variables related to gender differences in health issues is made up of the confounding variables that your text refers to as artifacts. These include physician bias and how the health care system treats men and women. For example, men and women are screened differently, diagnosed differently, and treated differently for many health problems. It also includes differences in socioeconomic status, such as education and income, that correspond to health outcomes.
Lastly, gender differences in social roles may contribute to health differences. Physically demanding careers held more often by men may lead to greater health risks such as job-related injury. On the other hand, women’s traditional role as family caretaker can also lead to health risks such as poor self-care and fatigue.
For this Discussion, you will analyze gender-related differences in physical health for a specific health issue of your choosing. You will not only explore its incidence and causes, but will also share potential strategies to mitigate risk.
To prepare
· Review this week’s Learning Resources, focusing on the gender-related differences and similarities in issues related to health.
· Select a physical health issue that interests you that has gender-related differences, and research this health issue using the Walden Library and other reputable academic sources.
· Search the literature for effective strategies to mitigate the risk of the health issue.
Reading for this week, and please review this week’s readings and try to incorporate in your answer.

Signature Assignment
Case Presentations of Psoriasis
Summary:  Each Student will prepare and present 2 pathophysiology case presentations.  The following week students will work in small groups and discuss the presentations posted by the members in their small group.  Presentations are due in week 3 and 6, while the discussions will be held during weeks 4 and 7.
Students will be assigned a diagnostic topic and patient scenario to present as a case presentation. Presentations will be completed as a narrated Power Point Presentation and posted in the Discussion Board for the corresponding week. Please see the presentation content tab for instructions on how to post in DB as well as a table of student topic assignments.
Directions:

  1. Give an overview of the patient with the presumptive diagnosis*.   You can “create” a patient case based on your knowledge of the diagnosis, based on a patient you have seen in your work or personal experience, or use a case study from the following recommended text:

Harold J. Bruyere (2009) 100 Case Studies in Pathophysiology. Login Bros. ISBN 978-0-7817-6145-1

  1. v
  2. Give an in-depth discussion of the pathophysiology of your diagnosis as it occurs over time; include signs, symptoms, diagnostic studies and the underlying pathophysiologic process causing these signs and symptoms.   Support this pathophysiology with high level evidence.
  3. Summarize treatments and outcomes in terms of pathophysiologic alterations.
  4. Once you have had an in-depth discussion of your diagnosis overall,  be sure to connect your case discussion back to the patient you have presented.  Example, If your patient has HTN and DM, be sure to include a discussion of the symptoms that your patient is exhibiting and discuss treatments specifically aimed for your patient.
  5. Support your case discussion with current (in the past 5 years) high level evidence.  Patient information portals, disease association websites  and other resources such as Uptodate, Epocrates, Medscape, Mayo Clinic are notconsidered high levels of evidence and should be avoided for your presentations.  While use of the course textbooks is permitted, a minimum of 3 high level citations outside of the course texts is required.  If you are unclear about what is considered high level evidence, please review content from your Evidence Based Nursing Practice Course
  6. Include some graphics to support your presentation and to make it more visually engaging
  7. Be sure that you are using your slides to support the verbal presentation.  Do not simply read the slides to your audience.  Presentations that are read to the audience without expansion of the content will be graded as if no narration were included.
  8. Presentation Length: The Patient Presentation component is typically 5 min or less, and a maximum of 3 slides.  Be sure to include just the pertinent positive and pertinent negatives.  The discussion of the case progression and pathophysiology is typically 10 -15 slides, and 15-20 minutes in length.  The entire presentation is a maximum  of 25 minutes and maximum of 18 slides which includes your title and reference slides.  
  9. APA formatting for your presentation is required.

Power Point Post Requirements:  

  1. You will post 2 files.
    1. The first is a copy of your presentation with a transcript of your planned narration in the notes section of the ppt file.  This file should not have the narration included.
    2. The second file is of your narrated presentation.
  2. It is acceptable to post a link to a youtube video of your ppt presentation**.  If you do so, you must also post the non-narrated ppt with transcription of your planned narration.
  3. Please do not post your presentation as any other type of document or movie file.  This include MPV4 files etc.

Outlining the public health financing process is an intuitive phase

Instructions

Outlining the public health financing process is an intuitive phase. Many public health officials start drafting the program budget along with the planning phase just to have some idea of the funding needed to support such a venture. Later, financial analysts are consulted to form a detailed plan of action and develop multiple financial options and a cohesive financial planning mechanism.

In this assignment, you will continue working on sections for your final project assignment. You will conduct a budget analysis for this assignment.

Using the readings for the week, the South University Online Library, and the Internet, write a 2–3-page budget analysis. Select 2–3 scholarly references on public health program financial plans to use in support of your response. Make sure to include evidence-based information and scholarly references.

Complete the following:

  • Begin by reviewing the assigned reading materials and the information about implementing and monitoring budgets.
  • Next, review the previous assignments you completed on your selected health issue or health disease topic.
  • Develop a cohesive budget to include types of cost analyses. Your budget analysis should be developed using an Excel spreadsheet. Review the readings for this week for examples.
  • Include the following components in your budget analysis:
    1. Selected Categories
    2. Total Budget
    3. Cumulative Expenses
    4. Dollar Variance
    5. Amount Left to Spend
    6. Percent of Unspent
    7. Percent of Variance
  • Be sure to calculate the total expenditures, revenue total, and final budget total.

In a 1-page summary in Word format, provide an overview of your budget that includes a mini-synopsis of the significant points. Approach your budget analysis as a practical application and assume you are going to submit it to public health officials to solicit funding for your health program. For this assignment, you will have two deliverables—the summary in Word format and the Excel spreadsheet with your analysis.

Since Microsoft Word and Excel are interconnected programs, you may embed your Excel spreadsheet in your Word document. The Microsoft Office Word Help Guide/Assistance can provide further information about how to embed or link documents.

Analyze the systems errors and/or human factors errors that should be considered with regard to this safety risk. Application: Patient Safety Risks

Analyze the systems errors and/or human factors errors that should be considered with regard to this safety risk.
Application: Patient Safety Risks

As noted in the Institute of Medicine report, To Err is Human, “It may be part of human nature to err, but it is also part of human nature to create solutions, find better alternatives, and meet the challenges ahead” (Institute of Medicine, 1999, p. 15).

What are the most common—or most significant—risks to patient safety? How do these risks vary in different health care settings or with disparate groups of patients? What can be done to address these risks? You will explore these questions and more in this Application Assignment.

To prepare for this Application:

Begin by brainstorming types of health care organizations and groups of patients (e.g., geriatric patients requiring chronic care, pediatric patients admitted for acute care). Identify a particular type of setting and/or patient population to help you pinpoint your focus for the following step.
Review the National Patient Safety Goals, the CDC’s NHSN Web site, and the information on patient safety concerns presented in the other Learning Resources. Select a specific patient safety risk (e.g., patient falls, medication reconciliation) to focus on for this assignment.
Analyze the systems errors and/or human factors errors that should be considered with regard to this safety risk.
Reflect on related insights that could be gained from high-reliability organizations. What approaches do these organizations use that might be applicable within a health care organization?
Consider the strategies and tools (e.g., Six Sigma, Lean) that could be used to assess and reduce this particular risk.
Evaluate the potential benefits of patient and family
