Social media and the use of online platforms have been deemed to be effective in information sharing in a community. The online community has grown drastically, and people are increasingly benefiting from the use of online platforms and social media. However, concerns have been raised on the implications of the effects of excessive and faults associated with the online platforms. For instance, there are vital cases that have been misrepresented in the online channels whereby people mistakenly share wrong and lousy information that affects the psychologies of others.

The modernization and development of the media have changed and taken the shape of modern society and its habitats. The use of social media is considered the current norm that involves the sharing of information and ideas regardless of their sources. Fake news and propaganda are being circulated in the social media platforms, whereby the effects of the circulation of the fake news are vastly based on the psychological issues facing the victims of an online bully. Also, online bullies have been rampant in modern societies which have increased cases of psychological problems affecting the targeted victims (Hopwood & Schutte, 2017). For example, the case of Alex Jones being sued for defamation by the parents of the children that were killed in Sandy Hook Elementary School in 2012. The case reflects the nature of the use of social media and online platforms to spread rumors and propaganda and how it affects other minority victims.

Social media and other online platforms have been effective in promoting the sharing of news and ideas concerning a community. For example, social media in the current settings is considered to be the fastest channel that helps in circulating information from one point to another. The use of online platforms has been used to air views or conduct surveys on public opinion, which is used to draw conclusions (Alexander, 2014). Also, the social media platforms are being utilized as a tool for crisis management in a community whereby the users access and share their suggestions, recommendations, or offer supportive messages to people affected during disasters. Therefore, online platforms have been vital in disaster and crisis management in modern societies.

However, social media and other online platforms have been used to manipulate of share wrong news to the societies. Fake ideologies and theories are being shared in the online channels which have posed a threat to the credibility of the use of online platforms. For example, the case of Alex Jones being sued due to the spread of fake theories is evident that people in the online platforms would be manipulated by wrong and inciting ideologies that are started by individuals for personal gains (Alexander, 2014). The reports and analysis of the case have argued that the consequences of the incidence are based on the psychological torture to the parents of the victims who died in the massacre.

The issues affecting the community are the wrong use of online platforms and social media in spreading propaganda and attacking individuals and cyber bully. The government and the legal system should implement strategies that tend to protect the minorities and the victims of defamation with the aim of curbing the cases of spreading false ideologies (Hopwood & Schutte, 2017). Also, people should understand that the law permits freedom of expression, but ethical consideration on attacking or spreading fake rumors should be guided by moral conduct which helps individuals in understanding the wrong from the bad while not the legal or illegal assumption.

The current use of media for issues related to natural disasters, emergencies and natural disasters is the main area of interest. Alexander (2014) encouraged several books for a strong presentation of the media. Facebook, weekly pages, blogs, etc. have consequences that can come to mind, both good and bad. Let’s look at a lot of television or stories, such as setting “tricky stories” in a trial or 9/11 event, there is a good connection between watching TV and psychological features.

In addition, disturbing events, such as the death of a family member or friend, can be monitored through regular viewing of media. On the other hand, analyzing the data generated by Hopwood & Schulte (2017) is shown to be a strong source of information for responding to concerns. The study completes the disclosure of violent and traumatic events that lead to serious psychological consequences. The combination of a complex disaster reduces stress and a full cycle of depression. In addition, it is associated with painful, difficult smoking cigarettes and alcohol.

2.

Communication resources like social media are a key feature of disaster planning, response and recovery. Social media and resources can prevent a disaster or reduce its impact. The power of social resources, which usually cover tragedy, is reasonable. Many people rely on social networks to get the right information at the right time when a disaster occurs, government agencies share important information in the community, such as updating disaster information, contact information, residential areas and other useful services, service providers communicating with customers, responding to reports of energy and water restrictions, and sharing updates upon return, the first respondents and volunteers use social networks to directly community, and to integrate, monitor, and prioritize the needs of the community and educational institutions, such as colleges and universities, send notifications to students, intelligence, and parents about when and where to protect yourself (during natural disasters)) or to enter closing mode (during the shootout).

Finally, dealing with significant tragedy is important for controlling the spread of rumors, it allows you to track timely messages from the public and public opinion before, during and after a disaster, and also provides an additional way to track the tragedy of the crisis and the success of the response from a public point of view.

Information Literacy is the ability to identify a need for information and successfully locate, evaluate, and use that information ethically and legally for a determined purpose. Improving: By improving your information literacy skills you will know when information is needed. You will know whether the information you find is reliable and accurate. You will be able to use advanced search techniques to find the most relevant information. Not to mention, you will be able to make opinions and judgments based on quality information. Also, you will be able to organize and present information in an effective way. Lastly, you will be able to understand the legal and ethical issues (A.C.R.L., 2000). Knowledge: Knowledge of knowing your literacy skills helps you learn. You learn because knowledge is organized, how to find information, and how to use the information in such a way that others can learn from them. Information literate people are prepared for lifelong learning, because they can always find the information needed for any task or decision at hand (ALA, 1989). Also knowledge of information literacy skills puts you in the path to become a lifelong learner. Lifelong learners embrace the process and challenges associated with acquiring new knowledge. They have a growth mindset in that they seek out opportunities to learn new things and put forth the effort to do so. People who are information literate use critical thinking skills when taking in information by evaluating a source for accuracy and fairness. Career: Information literacy skills can benefit you in the workplace too. “Employees are able to recognize and understand the central place that information, its creation, production, reproduction, circulation, an dissemination play in sustainable workplace” (Lloyd, 2011, p. 280). Rather than merely possessing data, we must also learn the skills necessary, to acquire, collate, and evaluate information for any situation (Obama, 2009). No matter what industry you work in, knowing how to integrate and use a variety of information from diverse print and digital sources is a necessity. Sticking with what your comfortable already knowing is great, but stepping out of your comfort zone and working to increase your workplace information literacy skills can have a positive effect for you and the organization you work for.

INTRODUCTION

---

The purpose of this task is to explore how nursing ethics, self-advocacy, and professional accountability can be applied in clinical practice. Using the provided case scenario, you will be required to think about how ethical concepts can be used to make clinical decisions and explore the differences in personal and professional beliefs. You will develop personalized stress management plans that rely on the use of adaptive coping strategies to ensure personal health and well-being.

SCENARIO

---

You have been working as a nurse in the adult oncology unit for the past year. You have developed a close relationship with many of your patients, but Mr. Newcomb has a special place in your heart. He has been diagnosed with stage 4 pancreatic cancer and has undergone aggressive chemotherapy. Each day his wife has come to the unit to be with her husband. They have been married for over 40 years and share a deep love.

Mr. and Mrs. Newcomb have made the decision to no longer continue with treatment and have decided that hospice care is needed. Over the past few days, you have watched Mr. Newcomb’s health decline, and you can tell from your experience that he does not have much time left to live. Mr. Newcomb has been very open about discussing his death, and you have had the opportunity to learn about his life and the legacy he will leave behind.

While you are completing your rounds, you stop in Mr. Newcomb’s room to see how he is doing. You ask, “Is there anything else I can do for you?” Mr. Newcomb has rarely asked for anything, but today he has one request. Mr. Newcomb states, “Before I die, I would like to see my mistress one more time. Mrs. Newcomb is always here. Do you think you could tell her that I will be busy for a few hours tomorrow so I can make arrangements to see my mistress one more time?”

Reflect on the following questions before you begin working on this task:

• What would you do in this scenario?

• How can your knowledge of ethical principles be utilized to determine your response to Mr. Newcomb?
