You have by now read several chapters of Criminal Justice Policy Origins and Effectiveness and should have a clear understanding of the number of actors within the criminal justice arena that create policy, including those in the corrections, law enforcement, and the courts among others. Each actor shares some goals with the others, but some goals are unique to each actor.

In this discussion, we are going to examine the challenges that exist when multiple actors in the same criminal justice arena are all trying to create policy that necessarily impacts the other actors. First, review the chapter readings in Criminal Justice Policy Origins and Effectiveness from Modules 1 through 5, as well as the Marion video and Obama article from Module 3. Next, in your initial post:

1. Identify an example of a departmental policy effort to address a public policy issue.

1. Focus your explanation on the potential difference between perceptions of criminality, the public policy issues related to these perceptions, and the reality of the challenges many political actors face in addressing these issues.

1. Discuss the overall impact on the public that exists having so many actors involved in the same criminal justice arena—all of whom are trying to create policy to address the same public policy issue.

In responding to your classmates’ posts, suggest practices that might avoid conflicting policies generated by multiple actors in the criminal justice arena all seeking to solve the same problem. Provide citations from the textbook readings as well as your classmates’ posts.

Marketing Fact Sheet 3-4 pages double spaced

Purpose of Assignment:The marketing fact sheet that you create in this assignment using research-based data will be an important tool for you to use to market the APN role.

List the topic as a SEPARATE HEADING prior to the presentation of the bullet points for that article.

FOR EACH of the articles (in total 7, it should look like this):

ARTICLE NAME 1 (as a heading)

– – 2- 3 sentence introduction of the article/study followed by bullet points

– brief closing statement two sentences

ARTICLE NAME 2 (as a heading)

– – 2- 3 sentence introduction of the article/study followed by bullet points

– brief closing statement two sentences

AND SO ON FOR ALL 7 ARTICLES

Example bullet points:

– nurse practitioners in nursing homes reduce the total costs of caring for patients with Alzheimer’s disease and related dementias by treating a broad array of their medical problems, such as gastrointestinal and genitourinary conditions, that often lead to expensive hospital visits.
– cost‐saving reductions in hospitalization were associated with care management led by nurse practitioners.

(these were copied, so dont use these examples or at least paraphrase them).

ASSIGNMENT RUBRIC:

1. Outcomes of care 6 points (must have at least 2 articles)

2. Quality of care provided 6 points (must have at least 3 articles)

3. Cost-effectiveness of care 6 points (must have at least 2 articles)

4. Format, grammar, appearance, creativity 2 points

Requirement: – Minimum of 7 separate PRIMARY research articles regarding APN practice must be cited (using APA 6th format) – Articles DOI must be turned in with the paper. (ONLY provide DOI with link in uploaded copy)

Additional Instructions:

You can provide copies to prospective employers, bankers approached for small business loans, news reporters, your mother, patients, policy wonks – you get the idea.

Make the facts sing for you – be creative!

You will learn how to work these research facts into your everyday conversations, much to the dismay of your close friends.

Assignment: Develop a 3-4 page summary (minimum) of key RESEARCH findings regarding the process and outcomes of advanced nursing practice:

***(select one (1) specific APN role- nursing leaders, nurse practitioners, nurse midwives, etc.).

(Do NOT use articles about the APN role or describing the role.

Find specific research articles OR the entire article will be deducted for 10 points.)

Provide bulleted points of key findings with additional research information (e.g., sample size, sample health status, healthcare setting, specific outcomes, etc).

You must provide enough specific information about the study so the research findings are not vague and they can be understood in context (see example below).

Provide appropriate citations for each finding. Use complete sentences.

***Majority of key points must focus on patient outcomes related to APN practice (e.g., patient satisfaction, reduced incidence of hospitalization, improved health status, etc.)

***Also include focus on quality of care and cost-effectiveness of APN care (You must have articles that address these outcomes also.)

***You will lose points for bullet points that are too vague or too limited to be able to “understand” the study

***You will also lose points if you write a narrative paper. This is NOT a regular paper.

***Consider drawing the conclusion for the reader for each article or finding (see example below). An example of brief overview of an article that addresses outcomes: A large randomized study of 3000 adult patients in public clinics was conducted in NYC. Patients were managed by NPs and physicians for six months measuring physiologic variables for HTN, diabetes, and asthma outcomes. Measures of A1C, BP, and asthma exacerbations resulted in essentially no difference in outcomes between the two provider groups indicating competency of the NPs to manage these chronic illnesses as well as physicians (Mundinger, et al, 2000).

(If the fact sheet assignment paper is too poorly written to read, there will be a 5 point deduction that cannot be redeemed). Please use the university writing center for consultation if you are not a strong writer prior to submitting the paper. Articles should be current within the past 5-7 years.

The studies do not have to be in your specialty area but you should try to find these as they will benefit you more. International studies are not as powerful because of different healthcare systems and different cultures but can be used if necessary to count as 1-2 articles. Be sure you have selected research articles—you must have the article with the primary findings, not a secondary mention.

Hello, Please write a short report on relationship between a prototype and finished web Application. No specified number of pages just do it well. Thank you

1. Provide two different examples of how research uses hypothesis testing, and describe the criteria for rejecting the null hypothesis. Discuss why this is important in your practice and with patient interactions.

2. Evaluate and provide examples of how hypothesis testing and confidence intervals are used together in health care research. Provide a workplace example that illustrates your ideas.
