watch these two videos and answer the question 3-4 sentances for each question

 

1. What were the ethical principles violated in the interaction between patients and doctors?

2. What other parties had interests in this case and what were these interests?

3. What were the arguments used by the defenders of the study to justify its execution?

4. What was wrong with these arguments?

5. How is this experiment similar to the experiments performed by Nazi doctors?

6. What can we do to make sure such experiments are not carried out ever again?

Concept

Reference an article about the clinical issue or situation

Key words that you must understand: defining attributes, concept, antecedents *Identify a specific clinical issue or situation in your current nursing practice area (decide on the concept in this situation) that you would either like to see changed or want to study. Depending on your practice area, this could be a patient issue or problem or it could be a healthcare system issue or situation. Here is an example: [ During my work as a nurse practitioner some of my asthmatic patients made frequent visits. I found that these were the patients who did not take their maintenance medications. They experienced frequent bouts of  bronchitis and missed many days of work and school]. Think about the concept in the situation but do not provide it since your peers will try to see if they have the correct one. In this case, the concept I am thinking of is adherence to medications, but you may think of the following: health maintenance, or chronic illnesses. You will not post the concept that you are thinking of.
A detailed, objective narrative of this issue or clinical situation should be provided so that the readers (instructor and peers) can picture themselves in the situation and are able to identify the concept. Do not draw conclusions or try to solve the situation in this narrative.

EBP is integral to the profession of nursing as it has the ability to increase successful outcomes in patient treatment. Expanded demand for provision of quality and safe care furnished by providers who believe in accountability is a main reason for the emphasis on EBP in nursing practice (Melnyk, Gallagher-Ford, Long, & Fineout-Overholt, 2014). To model evidence-based practice in my future advanced practice setting I must use my growing knowledge of the research process. One way in which I can do this is by keeping current with research studies and continuing to learn from and critique them as needed. I can share my knowledge with co-workers and encourage them to use the latest evidence-based research in their clinical practice. By doing so myself I can be a model of how use of EBR translates in to EBP and improves patient outcomes.

In order to promote such an environment it is crucial to have the support of the organization. It is my duty to advise others, including those in charge, of the importance of maintaining a finger on the pulse of the latest in nursing research. I can ask specifically for the tools related to research, such as online and print journal subscriptions focusing on the type of care provided in the practice. I can also offer to spearhead educational opportunities to impart my knowledge of EBP and the research process to my co-workers.

FNPs have direct access to patients and have firsthand knowledge regarding what is working in regards to patient care versus practices that may no longer be valuable. FNPs can then facilitate problem-solving in cases of the latter, contributing to evidence-based research and therefore changing evidence-based practice in the process. I would emphasize the important role we as FNPs have in the EBP process and urge the practice to see the benefits of fostering a workplace supportive of EBP (Black, Balneaves, Garossino, Puyat, & Qian, 2015).

As for the detractor, I would relay the message that evidence-based practice is responsible for generating comprehensive and useful healthcare guidelines and practice which affects patient outcomes. Positive patient outcomes equals happier patients, and, as a result, a happier practice. EBP is also tasked with improving overall healthcare systems, as well as advancing the practice of practitioners. I would remind this person that using EBP will improve the workplace atmosphere and even his personal practice (Correa-de-Araujo, 2016).

Benefit of exercise in adults

For the middle-aged adult, exercise can reduce the risk of various   health problems. Choose two at-risk health issues that regular   physical exercise and activity can help prevent and manage. Discuss   the prevalence of each of these health problems in society today.   Describe measures that you would take as a nurse to assist clients   with health promotion measures to incorporate exercise and physical   activity into their lives. Include the kind of activities you would   recommend, the amount of exercise, and the approach you would use to   gain cooperation from the client. Support your response with   evidence-based literature.

An organizational structure identifies the roles and responsibilities of those in leadership positions that will impact the goal of the organization and (Renani, Ghaderi & Mahmoudi, 2017). It also indicates how information is shared through the various levels of leadership (Marquis & Huston, 2017). It identifies the hierarchical leadership structure of an organization for accountability ( Renani et al., 2017).

SLMC is a healthcare organization that has cared for a number of its neighboring communities in the Chamberlain County of South Carolina for the last 50 years. The organization consists of 500 physicians and 450 nurses and as such needs an organized way to function where roles are defined so the goals of the organization can be met. The purpose of the organization is to improve quality care and safety and to make improvements in healthcare and to provide care of the surrounding communities.

As the nurse administrator, the organizational structure that would be best for St. Louis Medical Center (SLMC) would be the shared governance. Shared Governance in healthcare is an essential component of providing quality and safe care to patients (Marquis & Huston, 2017). Based on the structure, the decision-making process is in collaboration with board members, physicians, the leadership team, and nurses (Marquis & Huston, 2017). The structure is made of several committees tasked to lead and make decisions which will affect the care of the community. Shared governance also supports empowerment through nurse autonomy and decision making (Marquis & Huston, 2017).

The organizational theory best for this type of structure would be the contingency theory. The contingency theory allows the organization to respond to its priorities based on the needs of the organizations as well as its community  (Birken, Bunger, Powell, Turner, Clary, Klaman, Weiner, 2017). The reason this type of theory would be ideal is that the structure would facilitate the development of a committee to respond to its community’s challenges. For example, addressing issues related to the ten percent increase in heart failure admissions noted. This organizational theory will positively impact the institutional goals based on the changes that can be made that will address issues inside and outside the organization and its mission and vision.

Assignment: Groups

Required Resources
Read/review the following resources for this activity: Textbook: Chapter 7,8 Lesson Minimum of 2 scholarly sources in addition to textbook and lesson.

Instructions
While our focus in the lesson this week was on the concepts of conformity and obedience, we also studied group processes and dynamics in our readings for the week. For this assignment, select two specific groups to which you personally belong. This could be a church group, sports team, club, department at work, etc. In a slide presentation, address the following for each of the groups you selected: Describe the group (membership, purpose, etc.). Define the group roles, emphasizing your own role in that group. Describe the group norms. Analyze the group dynamics – How does the group communicate? How are decisions made? Who evaluates group members’ performance? Evaluate how dissension or conflict are managed within the group. Select two social psychology group concepts (for example: cohesion, groupthink, social loafing) and apply them to these two groups, comparing and contrasting how the group norms and dynamics impact how the group behaves.

Writing Requirements (APA format)
