Review the corporate strategy of AB Electrolux: found here: http://group.electrolux.com/en/category/about/

As the social and demographic trends continue to evolve so do the opportunities afforded to Electrolux. The most significant demographic shift globally is the growing middle class in Asia, which includes families with incomes between US$6,000 and US$30,000. It is estimated that by 2030 there will be 3 billion more people in the global middle class than there were in 2013.(Ernst & Young, 2013)

Correlated with rising incomes worldwide, homeownership has also increased at a substantial rate giving rise to increased demand for consumer durables such as refrigerators, washing machines, and dishwashers. (Electrolux, 2013)

She states that the patient was medicated for pain approximately 2 hours ago but is voicing little relief and states that you might want to mention that to the doctor when he rounds later this morning. With the patient appearing to be in no visible distress, you proceed on to the next patient’s room for report. Approximately 1 hour later, you return to Ms. Jackson’s room with her morning pills and find her slumped over the bedside stand in tears. THe patient states, “I don’t know what’s wrong, I don’t feel right. My back hurts and I’m just tired. What is wrong with me?” The patient refuses to take her medications at this time stating that she is starting to feel sick to her stomach. Just then the nursing assistant comes into the patient’s room to record Ms. Jackson’s vital signs, you take this opportunity to quickly research the patient’s medication record to determine if she has a medication ordered fo nausea.

Make a PICOT QUESTION

/in /by

I have an essay on my picot statement ready.My topic is clinical provider shortages. All I need is to make a simple picot question from it.I have attached my document. Please follow the example below.. Like a quick picot lookup.

do not need an essay regarding the PICOT question (don’t write a paper of 750 words) instead, all I need you to do is to follow the example below:

Post a paper with the following.

P – problem and population

I – Intervention (what intervention you are going to do that is based off of evidence based research

C – comparisons. (what are you comparing your outcomes to)

O – outcomes. What measureable outcomes are you looking at. Remember the outcomes need to be measureable. For example CAUTI/1000 patient days.

T – Time frame. What time frame are you looking at for the project. Remember, you need three data points in the outcomes to note a change in practice.

Then write the PICOT question.

Here is an example:

Population: ICU Patients who are intubated. The problem is ventillated associated pneumonia

Intervention: Oral care every 6 hours

Comparison: The rate of VAPS before and after the initiation of oral care.

Outome: Ventilated Associated Outcomes per 1000 patient days.

Time: over 6 months.

So I would write a PICOT question like this:

Does the implementation of agressvie oral care every six hours in ventilated patients decrease the incidence of VAPs/1000 patient days over 6 months?

Module 2 is an overview of moral theory. Your question is this: which theory do you think provides the most insight, utilitarianism, Kantianism, or virtue theory? Why?

Respond to Krystle’s post (minimum of 150 words),

In my personal opinion, I think that Utilitarianism gives the most insight. Utilitarianism basically is placing the idea of right and on the consequences of choosing one policy over another. The reason I think that this gives the most insight is because it is not just bases on the interests of a sole person but the interests of others as well. The virtue theory does not give much insight because it is basically a theory basically decriminalizing the actual consequences off of whether or not the person had good or bad intentions. In my eyes this would be more of a judgement rather than a theory which makes no sense. Another reason I think utilitarianism has the most insight because it is more so about maximizing the good in a situation and making the most good out of something for the most amount of people rather than focusing on the bad aspects. I would say that this is also the down side of Utilitarianism because the theory itself is so focused on the good like said above that it leaves no room to criminalize the intent for the bad. There has to be a point where you limit the good intent and for there to be consequences even though the intent may have been good.

Respond to Cassandra (minimum of 150 words),

In my opinion, virtue theory is most insightful. Virtue theory is defined in our text on page 136, as a theory of morality that makes virtue the central concern. To me this means you live to be a “good” person or have virtuous character rather than relate a principle to a circumstance. With the virtue theory we are not blindly following laws. Individuals would rather be living to be “good” instead of deciding per situation, “is this action good or bad?” Eudaimonia, the greatest form of happiness, is a desire of all humans. We want to be happy, the meaning of happiness would vary but the road to this achievement would be directed by living with a virtuous disposition. Aristotle’s notion of the Golden Mean would maintain the balance and moderation of our actions. Moral obligation through our virtues would be the driving force to our actions. We can all agree that such actions like lying is wrong, the virtue theory would maintain that there is no acceptable medium for lying because it would not reflect a virtuous character. Virtue theory is also the difference between duty and compassion. Page 138 gives the scenario of a person caring for their sick mother out of responsibility versus out of love, sympathy, and loyalty. The character of the person is displayed because of moral virtue instead of obligation.

Margaret Atwood: The Handmaids Tale

/in /by

I need someone who read the Margaret Atwood’s The Handmaid’s Tale novel to write the essay.

Write an essay in which you provide an interpretation of a particular theme that you see operating in Margaret Atwood’s The Handmaid’s Tale. You should develop your idea about the theme you have chosen through your careful close-reading of at least 3 particular passages from the novel.

THESIS

Your thesis should answer the following question:

What is the interesting, surprising, contradictory, or bizarre thing that you feel Atwood is showing us about your theme?

Tell us what you have figured out that you would like to show other
readers of the novel, something not all readers would immediately see
unless they engaged in the kind of careful analysis that you have done.

INTRODUCTION

Your essay should have a compelling introduction that introduces the
reader to your chosen theme. You should create sentences that provide a
bit of context for the reader and, more importantly, that give the
reader an overview of your theme. You do not have to give a summary of what happens in the novel; you can assume the reader has read it.

BODY

In the body of your essay, you should include the pieces of evidence
that help you support and develop your thesis, and you should explain
the specific idea of each piece of evidence. That is, ask yourself:

What idea does each piece of evidence suggest about my theme that
is related to, but slightly different from, my other pieces of
evidence?

Your goal is to use your interpretation of each piece of evidence to
add some insight into your idea. Do not simply allow your textual
evidence to speak for itself. Instead, draw our attention to specific
words, phrases, or images and tell us the idea that the wording
implies.

Conclusion

Your conclusion should not simply repeat what you have already said
in your essay. It should tie together what you have written in the body
and leave the reader with something slightly new to think about. It
should make a move beyond what you have written thus far to consider the
larger implications of the issue you are interested in.

FORMATTING

3-4 typed, double-spaced pages with one-inch margins and 12-pt font. Parenthetical documentation and works cited in MLA style. Don’t paraphrase, use your own ideas and your own words( No plagiarism!!!!). I need to know what you want to write about before you wanna start it.
