Description of the Assignment: 

Content

1. Introduction to the paper includes a few general statements on the idea of nursing theory being applied to solve problems/issues in nursing practice, regardless of the specialty area of practice. For example, why would one pick a nursing theory to solve a practice problem? Would a grand, middle-range, or practice theory be best? Does the writer have any experience in using nursing theory this way? In addition, a brief one-paragraph summary of a specific nursing theory and information on the sections of the paper are provided. The selected nursing theory can be a grand theory, a middle-range theory, or a practice theory.

2. Description of the problem/issue for which strategies will be developed. The problem to be resolved must be in nursing leadership, nursing education, nursing informatics, or health policy. Scholarly evidence (in the form of a literature review) supporting the issue is included. The problem/issue could be local to one’s specific practice setting. For example, the setting might be a nursing unit, a nursing-education program, an informatics department, or a health-policy unit of a consulting firm. The problem/issue needs to be something that a nursing theory can impact, whether it solves the actual problem/issue or enables people affected by the problem/issue to deal with it. It is best if the problem/issue is from real life – something the writer of the paper has dealt with or is currently engaged in.

   Some examples (these are fictitious examples)

   1. A nursing unit has experienced rapid turnover of professional staff, including several nurse managers. A new nurse manager from outside of the nursing unit is appointed.

   2. Informatics nurse specialists face a lot of resistance from all healthcare professionals to implementation of a computer-based order entry program. The implementation date will not be changed.

   3. A nurse educator is assigned to take over a large class of undergraduate nursing students, with a mix of young adults and adults returning for a second degree. The subject is difficult, students have not been doing well, and frustration and tempers are impeding group work.

   4. A health-policy nurse specialist works for a consulting firm that lobbies on behalf of many healthcare professions. Within the specialist’s work unit, there is much debate over the pros and cons of various policies being proposed for attention in the coming year.

3. Applying concepts and principles from the selected theory, one strategy for resolving the identified issue is described in depth. Details on how the theory would be applied are included (consider: who, what, when, where, and how). Rationales for the strategy as well as evidence from scholarly literature are included. One ethical and/or legal aspect of the strategy is discussed. Expected outcome(s) from implementing the strategy are proposed.

4. Concluding statements include new knowledge about applying nursing theory gained by writing the paper

Perceptions of Victim Gender

DO THE ASSIGNMENT BASED ON THE READINGS BELOW IN BOLD…CHOOSE A STORY AND DO THE ASSIGNMENT BASED ON IT.

I worked with a man who was an ironworker. Now an ironworker is the epitome of macho. This guy was big, and his wife was tall, but thin, probably no more than a hundred pounds. She kept putting him in the hospital. She kept beating him up with a baseball bat. Every time he came out of the hospital, they [his co-workers] were laughing him off the girders. They had no sympathy or empathy for him.

Description of a male victim’s case from the Sacramento California’s Valley Oasis Crisis Center (McNeely, Cook, & Torres, 2001)

Official statistics suggest that women far outnumber men as victims of domestic violence (Truman, 2011). Yet some studies have found that women may be as likely as men to be the perpetrators in these cases (Fiebert, 2011). National survey statistics may be biased due to male victim underreporting; men are about half as likely to report their domestic abuse victimization to police as women (Brown, 2004).

In this Discussion, you review the literature on the differences in perceptions of male and female victims of physical abuse crimes, and analyze how differing perceptions affect a victim’s willingness to report his or her victimization to the police. Select a case from the media or literature that illustrates differences in perceptions of male victims versus female victims.

Post by Day 1 an explanation of differences in perceptions of physically abused male victims versus physically abused female victims. Provide specific examples from the media and/or literature to support your response. Finally, explain how these perceptions might influence the likelihood of male victims and female victims to report.

One and a half page with at least two reference….

It is important that you cover all the topics identified in the assignment. Covering the topic does not mean mentioning the topic BUT presenting an explanation from the readings.

To get maximum points you need to follow the requirements listed for this assignments 1) look at the page limits 2) review and follow APA rules 3) create SUBHEADINGS to identify the key sections you are presenting and 4) Free from typographical and sentence construction errors.

Chapter 23 is devoted to the Animal Kingdom. It discusses the body plan and other key innovations in animals. Animals like other organisms encounter a number of problems. Each species of animal has found unique ways to solve these problems. By solving their problems, animals have evolved differently in different environments and increased their diversity. From most primitive (sponges) to most advanced (vertebrates). And a huge number of other species in between. That is why there are so much variations in animal species (more than 1.5 million species of animals have been identified).

Part I: Pamphlet

1. Develop a pamphlet to inform parents and caregivers about environmental factors that can affect the health of infants.
2. Use the “Pamphlet Template” document to help you create your pamphlet. Include the following:
3. Select an environmental factor that poses a threat to the health or safety of infants.
4. Explain how the environmental factor you selected can potentially affect the health or safety of infants.
5. Offer recommendations on accident prevention and safety promotion as they relate to the selected environmental factor and the health or safety of infants.
6. Offer examples, interventions, and suggestions from evidence-based research. A minimum of three scholarly resources are required.
7. Provide readers with two community resources, a national resource, and a Web-based resource. Include a brief description and contact information for each resource.
8. In developing your pamphlet, take into consideration the healthcare literacy level of your target audience.

Part II: Pamphlet Sharing Experience

1. Share the pamphlet you have developed with a parent of an infant child. The parent may be a person from your neighborhood, a parent of an infant from a child-care center in your community, or a parent from another organization, such as a church group with which you have an affiliation.
2. Provide a written summary of the teaching / learning interaction. Include in your summary:
3. Demographical information of the parent and child (age, gender, ethnicity, educational level).
4. Description of parent response to teaching.
5. Assessment of parent understanding.
6. Your impressions of the experience; what went well, what can be improved.

So there is 2 documents. one is the pamphlet itself and the second written summary document.

Citations required in APA format not older than 5 years. I am attaching the template for the pamphlet here too.

Answer the questions below. Your responses to the items below should be thorough, well-conceived college-level responses that are grammatically correct. Please write your answers in complete sentences. Justify your responses with facts and details from your reading assignment and other credible sources as needed. Provide examples as required.

Question:

Your last discussion board will be a reflection on what you learned in this class. Write at least 300 words. APA style.

Please answer only if you know about science. Please answer the questions below:

I also attached some examples.

1. According to current scientific understanding, life on Earth

(a) was exceedingly improbable.

(b) arose quite soon after conditions allowed it.

(c) may have been inevitable, but took billions of years to arrive.

2. If we sent one of our current spacecraft to a nearby star (besides the Sun), the trip

would take about

(a) a decade

(b) a century

(c) 100,000 years

II. Short Answers (1 pt each)

3. What do we mean by a habitable world? Does a habitable world necessarily have

life?

4. How did the Copernican revolution affect scholarly thought regarding the

question of life beyond Earth?

“1

III. Quantitative problems (1 pt each; To receive full credit, SHOW ALL WORK!)

5. Communication with Mars. We use radio waves, which travel at the speed of

light, to communicate with spacecraft. How long does it take a message to travel

from Earth to a spacecraft on Mars when:

(a) Mars is at its closest distance to Earth

(b) Mars is at its furthest distance from Earth.

(Data: The distance from Earth to Mars ranges between about 56 million and 400

million kilometers.)

6. Interstellar Travel. Our fastest current spacecraft travel away from Earth at a

speed of roughly 50,000 km/hr. At this speed, how long would it take to travel the

4.4 light year distance to Alpha Centauri, the nearest star system to our own?

(Hint: Recall that a light year is approximately 9.5×1012 km.)

The interpretation of research in health care is essential to decision making. By understanding research, health care providers can identify risk factors, trends, outcomes for treatment, health care costs and best practices. To be effective in evaluating and interpreting research, the reader must first understand how to interpret the findings. You will practice article analysis in Topics 2, 3, and 5.

For this assignment:

Search the GCU Library and find three different health care articles that use quantitative research. Do not use articles that appear in the Topic Materials or textbook. Complete an article analysis for each using the “Article Analysis 1” template.

Refer to the “Patient Preference and Satisfaction in Hospital-at-Home and Usual Hospital Care for COPD Exacerbations: Results of a Randomised Controlled Trial,” in conjunction with the “Article Analysis Example 1,” for an example of an article analysis.

While APA style is not required for the body of this assignment, solid academic writing is expected, and documentation of sources should be presented using APA formatting guidelines, which can be found in the APA Style Guide, located in the Student Success Center.

This assignment uses a rubric. Please review the rubric prior to beginning the assignment to become familiar with the expectations for successful completion.

You are required to submit this assignment to LopesWrite. Refer to the LopesWrite Technical Support articles for assistance.

When discussing plastic bags, its a little different for me. I know plastics bags, while convenient, are a huge contributor to waste products not only in the United States, but the world. While something so simple as a plastic bag seems small, it’s the perfect size, weight, and non composition material to travel the while while staying around for ages. One of the major problems of plastic bags is that they are not biodegradable. This leads to the waste sticking around to long periods of time. In addition, as they compose the chemical start to erode into the earth causing various environmental issues. As Turk & Bensel (2014) state, “The liners may eventually leak and contaminate groundwater with toxic leachate.” But there are ways to combat this.

I currently live in Japan where you have to pay for plastic bags. If you go into a supermarket, and you do not have a reusable grocery bag, you pay a five yen (roughly five American cents) per bag. This has been very helpful to not only reduce the waste, but to fund the reduction of current waste with the funds from the bags. “According to the 2012 survey on plastic bags by MOE, all 47 prefectures, as well as nearly 90 percent (%) of 19 government-designated cities, 41 major urban cities and 23 wards of Tokyo are taking some form of measures to reduce plastic bags as of February 1, 2013.” (“Current Status of Plastic Bag Reduction Efforts in Japan｜JFS Japan for Sustainability”, 2015)
