Scenario: The Registered Nurse arrives to begin the shift on a busy medical-surgical floor and discovers the other RN scheduled to work has called in sick. The patient census is 30. Two unlicensed assistive personnel (UAP) have been assigned to the unit. The RN is responsible for administering all patients’ medications during the shift. One of the patients who is very ill requires the use of transmission-based precautions for chicken pox. The RN approaches the room to administer the medication, notes the sign about the type of transmission-based precaution for this patient and thinks “I don’t need to use the precautions”. The RN enters the patient’s room and hangs the intravenous medication. Upon leaving the RN thinks “See I was only in there less than 5 minutes and no harm done. The greater good is I can get the other medications out to patients that need them now.” Consider the chain of infection as you prepare a response to this situation. What are the implications of the RN’s decision about the application of transmission based precautions? Are there any reasons that support the RN’s action? Think about risk vs. benefit when formulating your response to the discussion board. Using the principles of management and delegation, how might the RN have: Approached the supervisor? Assigned the staff? Ensured safe patient outcomes? Using nursing judgment develop a 3 part nursing diagnosis statement for the patient on isolation which includes one NANDA-I diagnosis, an etiology and the defining characteristics (nursing diagnosis + related to + as evidenced by). One (1) assessment to validate the nursing diagnosis. One (1) outcome statement (realistic, measureable and contains a time frame). Journal Articles: Blaney, W. (2010).

Scenario: You are the Refinery Emergency Response Coordinator for an incident at the SJV Refinery which has been in operation since 1966. The refinery processes 120,000 bbls of crude oil per day, which has a sulfur content of 2.5 percent. The refinery converts crude oil to naptha, light oil, and heavy oils using the Atmospheric/Vacuum Distillation Unit with key equipment such as the following: � naptha, kerosene, gasoline, and diesel hydrotreaters; � isomerization unit; � naptha reformer; � fluid catalytic cracker; � coker; � hydrocracker; � polymerization unit (petrochemical section of the refinery polymerizing olefin gases to produce polyethylene); � sulfur recovery Claus plant (catalytic reactors); and � distillate/gasoline blending tanks. The refinery was initiating work on a major plant turnaround at the time of the incident to complete required maintenance repairs, mechanical integrity inspections, and modifications to existing equipment. Twenty contractor companies (approximately 150 employees) have been contracted to perform this work under the direction of refinery staff. All of the contractor workers completed the refinery orientation training. Work for the contractor crews is assigned/scheduled each morning. On the day of the incident, the day-shift (6 am to 6 pm) crew had been tasked with isolating the acid gas feed stream for the Claus unit. Due to other work priorities, the crew did not isolate the line as planned. A shift turnover for the night contractor crew did not happen due to mandatory safety training that delayed their arrival at the worksite. Upon their arrival at the work site, the night crew held a job safety analysis (JSA) review of the scheduled task (line breaking of the acid gas feed line to replace a segment) to be performed and the hazards present. No pressure gauges or monitoring was present to indicate that the acid gas feed line was operational. The crew initiated the line breaking activity (open the line to the atmosphere) at approximately 7:45 pm under self-contained breathing apparatus (SCBA), which almost immediately resulted in the uncontrolled release of acid gas. A nearby ignition source from a welding operation ignited the flammable gas. The following actions were initially taken: � The evacuation alarm was sounded and the refinery emergency response team (ERT) was activated. � The plant manager and the local fire department were notified of the incident. � The incident command was established at the refinery office near the main refinery access gate to the south (this is the furthest distance within the refinery boundary from the incident location). � The refinery ERT incident commander implemented actions required under the approved refinery emergency response plan. � The ERT was not able to immediately isolate the acid gas feed pipeline. � The fire department arrived on location and assumed the incident command of the event. Additional Relevant Information: � The refinery encompasses an area measur.

Scenario: An elderly male was rushed to the emergency room reporting severe chest pain and shortness of breath. Shortly after his arrival at the emergency room he became unconscious and pulseless. CPR was started. When the family arrives one daughter states her father has an advance directive appointing her as his health care proxy; she has a copy of it in her purse. She indicates her father did not want to be resuscitated if his heart were to stop. However, one son and another daughter argue that since CPR has already been started it should not be stopped. Another son supports the daughter who is their father’s health care proxy. In your initial post discuss legal and ethical implications for the RN in this circumstance. How does the RN provide care to the patient and family to meet all needs during this stressful event? Discuss how it may be impossible to meet all family members’ needs.

Scenario: The RN is caring for a group of patients with two individuals who present a challenge in developing a therapeutic relationship. One is a 15-year-old male who experienced a head injury after being thrown from the back of an all-terrain vehicle (ATV). The patient was placed on a ventilator. On the third day of hospitalization he begins to be more responsive, opening his eyes on request and following the movement of people in the room. The other patient is an elderly woman who does not speak English as her primary language. She had just received a diagnosis where she will need to make serious decisions about her care. Her adult son wants to be her interpreter. There are some very personal questions the RN will need to ask and is uncertain about the son’s involvement. Describe how the RN establishes a caring, therapeutic relationship with these patients. Can the RN approach these situations in the same manner as with patients who are awake, alert, and speak the same language? What strategies may the RN use to provide culturally sensitive nursing care that reflects the patient/family health- illness beliefs and healthcare practices? Discuss how the RN knows when therapeutic relationships are established (i.e., what evaluation criteria are met). .

Risk: NANDA-1 diagnosis + etiology(related to) Identify the data cluster (grouping of significant data that points to the existence of the patient health problem) used to select the nursing diagnosis. o Identify one patient outcome (realistic, measureable and contains a time frame). List at least four (4) interventions the RN would implement to ensure the patient remains free from falls during the hospitalization. Label each intervention as independent nursing action (intervention) or interdependent nursing action (intervention) Provide a rationale for each action (intervention) Provide a reference for each of your rationales Compare your identified risk factors to a developmental stage other than the elderly (such as infant, toddler, school age child, adolescent, young adult or middle age adult). Are they alike or dissimilar? How does the RN know the patient understands the teaching provided about a safe environment was effective? .

Running head: FINANCIAL PERFORMANCE CITY OF DORAL 1 FINANCIAL PERFORMANCE CITY OF DORAL 3 Financial Performance City of Doral Name Institutional Affiliation Financial Performance City of Doral History of City of Doral Two real estate developers called Doris and Alfred Kaskel who bought 2400 acres of land in late 1950s established City of Doral in the state of Florida. The land was swampy between NW 36 and 74 streets and from NW 79 to NW 117 avenues; they bought the land for $ 49,000 with the aim of building a hotel and a golf course. The Kaskel’s constructed the Carillon Hotel and Doral Beach Hotel on Miami Beach. On the bought land, they constructed a country club and established a hotel, which they named as Doral, which is a combination of their names. So guests at the Miami Beach would be transported to the country club, which featured blue, red and par 3 golf courses. Among the events that were hosted at the country club was Florida’s major PGA event, which was the first Doral Open Invitational (City of Doral, 2020). Subsequently, guests frequented the hotels and the country club. Between 1980 and 2000, Doral’s grandson called Bill built Doral estates and engaged in a joint venture to build the Doral park. Because of building the estate, younger families flooded the area for shopping sprees because the area had not parks, stores, or schools. The tenants and buyers of the Doral estate came together as a community; whereas there were no traffic problems the rapid construction of the estate and the attraction of many buyers and tenants due to the low cost led the county to impose a building moratorium (City of Doral, 2020). The high population and lack of amenities led to increase in the cost of services. The community in the area established a West Dade Federation of Homeowner Associations in 1989 to safeguard the welfare of the community. As a result of the federations’ effort, there was establishment of police station, lighting, landscaping and roads in the area. Over time, the ownership of Doral country club and hotel changes when Donald Trump bought the club in 2012 for $150 million. Due to change in ownership, the name of the club changed to Trump National Doral Gold Club. The reputation of the club for its golf courses continued and expanded internationally; for example, the Blue Monster continued to host PGA Tour Tournament until 2016. Apparently, the City of Doral attracts many companies, families, businesses and retires (City of Doral, 2020). Between 2010 and 2016, the population of City of Dorol increased by 26.1% by 12,000 people to 58,000 residents. When the city incorporated in 2003, the population was 22,709, which is half its current population (Madan, 2017). Financial Developments since 2014 During the last four years, the City of Doral experienced increased construction of buildings and gro.

Running head: POLITICAL ROLES IN NATURAL DISASTER MANAGEMENT 1Political Roles in Natural Disaster Management Political Roles in Natural Disaster Management Student name: Course: Instructor name: Month, day, year: Abstract Natural disaster management is a fundamental act in the US both in economic, social-cultural, and political dimensions. Researchers and policymakers record that due to Hurricane Agnes and nuclear accidents in the United States of America, a rise to government participation at local and federal was evidence through the formation of the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) (Mener A, 2007). The purpose of this paper is to review and political analysis roles in planning, preparation, and response to a natural disaster. Introduction The impact and occurrence of natural disasters are on an administrative capacity. Despite the autonomy of genetic distance relationships with a political standpoint, human political actions display myriad ways in which political intervention leads to planning, preparation, and response to such circumstances beyond one's control (Cohen C and Weker E, 2008). Political designs and models are vital in disaster control, mitigation, and control over a given geographical jurisdiction and administration capability of political power in natural disasters such as earthquake and hurricane mitigation and monitoring. Despite an extensive literature review on the political contribution in disaster management, there is a need for further research to comprehend planning, preparation, and response to natural disasters from a political perspective. Planning Disaster planning is a systematic approach to natural disaster management and control. Politics play myriad roles in planning for natural disaster mitigation and control (Choudhury Z, 2013). Politics shape the systematic planning of natural disaster management prevention, alerts, response, and recovery of the losses. The federal and local government authority plays roles to control natural disaster in various approaches. Planning of inspection methods and alert preposition are vital in the prep.

Running Head: REPRODUCTIVE CHOICES 1 REPRODUCTIVE CHOICES 2 Reproductive Choices Latoya Wilson Capella University June 5, 2019 Human Sexuality Human sexuality makes it achievable for people and animals to express themselves as sexual beings. Sexuality is one of the reasons behind the feeling that everyone has the thoughts and the manner in which we behave. Sexuality defines the manner, in which biological reproduction comes about, it goes ahead to describe the sociological and psychological representation of oneself and the way a person is attracted to others especially of the opposite sex. Human sexuality is a sensitive issue across both sexes. It is an issue that is handled with confidentiality respects for individual’s rights and dignity which is an ethical principle. Through sex, children get an opportunity to bond with each other, adolescents get time to flirt and adults go ahead into having babies. The good sexual and reproductive state can be categorized as a mental, physical and social stability of an individual that is directly related to the reproductive system. This means that people are able to have a satisfied and safe sexual life. They also have freedom when it comes to matters of reproduction and child bearing. They are able to determine when to reproduce, why they need to do so and how often they need to have children. For one to be able to maintain the best sexual and reproductive practices it is important to seek for important information which is accurate pertaining to the use of contraceptives and how regularly they need to use them. It is important for people to be well informed for the purpose of doing away with unwanted pregnancies and sexually transmitted infections. (Rainwater, 2017). When women are ready and psychologically prepared to have children, they must be able to access to important advice from physicians make it easy for them to go through the pregnancy period to delivery and thus a healthy baby. When it comes to sexuality and reproductive health everyone must be given a chance to make their own choices. This is respecting other peoples right and dignity. It is applicable by recognizing the worth of the individual through engaging in professional and positive interactions without creating a direct influence of the decisions. Comment by Mccaa Russum: Good statement but what does this have to do with professional behaviors in regard to professional ethical behaviors? Contraceptives It took time for people to accept the idea of using contraceptives. Most people in society thought that the use of contraceptives would lead to barrenness and even miscarriages. Through continuous education and campaigns, it has become easy for parents to take up the responsibility and use contraceptives to avoid unwanted pregnancy and to.
