Final Paper

 

 

You have two options for your final paper:

 

1. The first option is an analysis of the HRB case, Seaside Organics, in which you would respond to the following prompt:

 

Compare and contrast the leadership of Sara Norton and Ernest Shackleton.

 

If you choose this option, you would need to purchase the case online from Harvard Business Review ($8.95). The link is here. You can also google the title of the case: Seaside Organics. But make sure you are purchasing the case and not something else, i.e. make sure it’s from HBR and that it’s $8.95.

 

2. The second option is to use the Correll reading to explain the Zenger and Folkman finding that when women assess their own leadership abilities, they rate themselves harshly.

 

If you choose this option, the two readings you will need are:

 

Zenger, Jack and Joseph Folkman. 2019. “Research: Women Score Higher Than Men in Most Leadership Skills.” Harvard Business Review, June 25, 2019.

 

Correll, Shelley J. 2004. “Constraints into Preferences: Gender, Status, and Emerging Career Aspirations.” American Sociological Review 69 (1): 93-113.

 

 

Whichever option you choose, your response should be in essay format. Your essay should have an introduction, body, and conclusion. Your paper should be 3 pages, double-spaced, 12-point font, 1 in. margins.

 

You should proof read your writing and, if possible, ask someone else to read your essay. Writing with errors and typos will lose points. You should cite sources. Please submit your responses on Quercus by midnight EST Tuesday April 6th.

Gastrointestinal (GI) and hepatobiliary disorders affect the structure and function of the GI tract. Many of these disorders often have similar symptoms, such as abdominal pain, cramping, constipation, nausea, bloating, and fatigue. Since multiple disorders can be tied to the same symptoms, it is important for advanced practice nurses to carefully evaluate patients and prescribe a treatment that targets the cause rather than the symptom.

Once the underlying cause is identified, an appropriate drug therapy plan can be recommended based on medical history and individual patient factors. In this Assignment, you examine a case study of a patient who presents with symptoms of a possible GI/hepatobiliary disorder, and you design an appropriate drug therapy plan.

 

To Prepare
  • Review the case study assigned:
  • Reflect on the patient’s symptoms, medical history, and drugs currently prescribed.
  • Think about a possible diagnosis for the patient. Consider whether the patient has a disorder related to the gastrointestinal and hepatobiliary system or whether the symptoms are the result of a disorder from another system or other factors, such as pregnancy, drugs, or a psychological disorder.
  • Consider an appropriate drug therapy plan based on the patient’s history, diagnosis, and drugs currently prescribed.

 

Write a 1-page paper that addresses the following:

 

Write a paper that addresses the following:

Explain your diagnosis for the patient, including your rationale for the diagnosis.

Describe an appropriate drug therapy plan based on the patient’s history, diagnosis, and drugs currently prescribed.

Justify why you would recommend this drug therapy plan for this patient.

Be specific and provide examples.

CASE STUDY:

Patient HL comes into the clinic with the following symptoms: nausea, vomiting, and diarrhea. The patient has a history of drug abuse and possible Hepatitis C.  HL is currently taking the following prescription drugs:

Synthroid 100 mcg daily

Nifedipine 30 mg daily

Prednisone 10 mg daily

Work with the information provided.

A revised drug therapy LIST is required at the end of the paper. 

(PLEASE MAKE SURE A REVISED DRUG THERAPY LIST IS INCLUDED WHICH IS REQUIRED IN THE ASSIGNMENT. REMEMBER “PREGNANCY, DRUGS, OR A PSYCHOLOGICAL DISORDER” ARE INVOLVE, THEREFORE, THERE MUST A REVISED DRUG THERAPY LIST).

Discussion: Clinical Supervision – Kaltura

Substance use disorders are complicated psychiatric and medical conditions that involve physical addiction as well as psychological or emotional dependence. Substance use disorders are some of the most difficult to treat. It takes a great deal of patience on the part of the provider and the client. It may take several attempts before a client is successfully able to “kick the habit.” Your guidance and patience can help the client to persevere through difficult times during the journey to recovery.

Clinical Supervision is an essential component of your development as a psychiatric mental health nurse practitioner. It provides an opportunity for professional collaboration as you share experiences with and gain insights from colleagues. For this Clinical Supervision, consider a client with a substance abuse disorder whom you do not think is adequately progressing according to expected clinical outcomes.

Learning Objectives

Students will:
  • Analyze clients presenting for treatment of substance-related and addictive disorders
  • Evaluate effectiveness of therapeutic approaches for clients diagnosed with substance-related and addictive disorders
  • Recommend treatment plans

To prepare for this Discussion:

  • Review this week’s Learning Resources concerning treating patients with substance-related and addictive disorders.
  • Reflect on a client you are currently counseling or have previously counseled at your practicum site who has been diagnosed with substance-related and addictive disorders.

By Day 3

Post a 3- to 5-minute Kaltura video in which you do the following:

  • Describe the client. Note: Do not use the client’s actual name.
  • Explain your therapeutic approach with the client, including the perceived effectiveness of your approach.
  • Identify any additional information about this client that may potentially impact expected outcomes.
  • Provide specific recommendations for the client to help them in determining why they are not progressing and what your suggested treatment plan consists of. It is useful to consult the Prochaska and DiClement model.
