Journal Assignment—Part 3

Practicum Onsite Visits

Summarize the key activities of your visits to your Practicum site (as appropriate), including with whom you met, what you did, and what you gained from the experience.

This week I continued to work on my flowchart. My preceptor and I also went over a project she did on specimen collection and adverse medical event. Her research question is as followed: “Is there a difference in the number of mislabeled specimens and collection and collection turnaround times for specimens collected utilizing the Mobilab specimen collection process versus using the previous labeling system consisting of chart labels and paper requisitions among inpatient and specialty units?”

 Write for your organization a 3–5-page impact report regarding the health concerns of a new immigrant population. Describe the population’s health concerns and issues, explain current pharmacological treatments, and explain how culture and traditional practices may affect use of pharmacology. Identify evidence-based strategies for the organization and nursing staff to use to educate the population and promote health and wellness. 

Imagine the county health department notifies your organization that a large number of immigrants are expected to be resettled in your area. The organization, wanting to be prepared to handle any health concerns of the population, tasks each department with readying for the influx of immigrants. Your supervisor asks you to prepare an impact report on the pharmacological needs of the population that can be shared with other departments.

Preparation

Complete the following as you prepare for your impact report:

  1. Choose one of the global areas below as the area from which the population will be coming.
    • Sub-Saharan Africa.
    • India.
    • China.
    • Dominican Republic.
    • Guatemala.
    • Jamaica.
    • Bangladesh.
    • Saudi Arabia.
    • Pakistan.
    • Mexico.
  2. Research the most common health concerns and issues for immigrants from your chosen global area, the pharmacological treatments that will likely be prescribed, and any cultural values or traditional practices that may impact patient outcomes.

Requirements

Once you have identified the population you will be using for this assessment, include the following in your impact report:

  • Describe the health concerns and issues for the population.
  • Describe current pharmacological treatment regimens for the main health concerns and issues.
  • Explain any traditional beliefs and practices associated with the health concerns and issues. Does the population engage in culturally based methods of treating the health concern?
  • Explain how cultural values and traditional practices might affect acceptance and use of prescribed pharmacological treatments. Be sure to consider the relationship between quality patient outcomes, patient safety, and the appropriate use of pharmacology.
  • Identify evidence-based, culturally sensitive strategies the organization can use to educate the population about the correct use of the pharmacology treatments.
  • Identify evidence-based, culturally sensitive strategies the nursing staff can employ with the population to promote health and wellness.

Write this assessment as an impact report formatted as other reports of a similar nature in your organization or an organization with which you are familiar. Include a title page and reference page and follow APA guidelines for your in-text citations and references.

Additional Requirements

  • Number of pages: 3–5
  • At least 3 current scholarly or professional resources.
  • Times New Roman font, 12 point, double-spaced font.

Are We Really Ready?

In 2001, the American College of Emergency Physicians (ACEP) formed a coalition called “The Partnership for Community Safety: Strengthening America’s Readiness.” The focus of the partnership was to strengthen the healthcare community’s response to disasters. It brought together several healthcare organizations in an effort to work together toward this goal.

Choose an organization that is a part of this movement, and prepare a paper on the organization. In your paper, include the answers for the following points:

  • A brief historical background of the organization
  • The main purpose and the role of the organization
  • Any regulatory requirements or guidelines, which the organization formulated for disaster preparedness
  • Any experience the organization has had with the disaster response
  • Any legal or ethical issues that the organization has encountered with regard to emergency preparedness
  • Any training the organization conducts for emergency preparedness
  • Any other issues found during online research

Using South University Online Library or the Internet, research on the topic “The Dark Winter Experiment.” On the basis of your research and your understanding of the topic, answer the following questions:

  • What was the Dark Winter experiment? Why was this experiment important?
  • How has the experiment helped us today in dealing with an emergency response?

Combine your responses in 4- to 5-page Microsoft Word document, not counting the cover page or the reference page.

Respond to your colleagues by providing additional thoughts about competing needs that may impact your colleagues’ selected issues, or additional ideas for applying policy to address the impacts described.

At least 2 references in each peer responses!

For a policy to be developed in nursing, both the competing needs and the agenda must align. For example, during the beginning stages of the COVID-19 outbreak, many students and trainees were going to be potentially involved in the care of infectious patients. Due to the virus, there was a huge probability that the students and trainees would be exposed, and the need to conserve the personal protective equipment (PPE) outweighed the need to provide an education to these students and trainees during this time (Gallagher & Schleyer, 2020). So, policies were made to stop and remove students and trainees from the hospitals. When the hospitals made this new policy, they inadvertently also created a shortage in workers, requiring many of them to work overtime, as well as created and increasing the risk for burnout on the existing staff. The new policy created will affect patients, because many of the hospital workers are overstressed and perhaps, less trained or qualified to care for the patient.

Sometimes a policy may seem to present a positive benefit, but have a negative impact on patients or even sometimes the workforce. According to Nancarrow (2015), what would work best is a flexible workforce, which has the potential to optimize our healthcare accessibility. A flexible workforce is one that can promptly respond to labor shortages and distribution of resources in an efficient way so that the needs of the staff and patients are met (Nancarrow, 2015). Resuming the training of new hires and students and starting up a residency program would help out the workforce shortage and ease some of the healthcare burnout (Wildermuth, Weltin, & Simmons, 2020). The COVID-19 pandemic is a chaotic time, but also a great time for educators. Educators can take this time to impart “strategies for improving end of life care, allocating scarce resources, and caring for patients who chose to be non-compliant during the self-quarantine recommendations (Gallagher & Schleyer, 2020).”

CAM Therapies

CAM theories and practices are being used today by majority of people these days. These theories relate to the ethnomedical practices, which is the study of traditional branches of medicine which may or may not have related written text. These practices include traditional Chinese, Ayurveda, and Unani practices being followed in various countries.

Using South University Online Library, search the article, “Health need and the use of alternative medicine among adults who do not use conventional medicine.”

This article attempts to understand the reasons that led some individuals to turn to CAM therapies rather than traditional allopathic methods of healing. The authors specifically wish to create a profile of the most likely candidates to use CAM therapies. Findings indicate that a wide variety of factors and attributes contribute to this decision.

On the basis of your research and understanding on the topic, answer the following questions:

  • What are the three main reasons some individuals select CAM therapies rather than traditional allopathic methods of healing? What would be the profile of the most likely candidates to use CAM therapies?
  • What demographic is more prone to using CAM therapies? What possible reasons contribute to this disparity?
  • How does this article contribute to the study of CAM practices?
  • Do you see any outstanding benefits or detractions from the modality discussed in the article in contemporary wellness environments?

Combine your responses in a Microsoft Word document. Your responses should be 4- to 5-pages long.

Support your responses with reasoning and examples.

Cite any sources in APA format.
