Scenario

You are an environmental lobbyist who has been asked to make a presentation to your state’s legislature. You will gather data about a local or regional environmental issue unique to your area or home state and prepare  PowerPoint Presentation.

Each assignment leading up to the final assignment is evaluated and graded independently. Your instructor will provide specific grading criteria for each step of the project prior to its due date.

 

The Superfund website will have information about contaminated areas, how they became contaminated, and who is responsible for the contamination, as well as clean-up plans for the contamination.

 

Your PowerPoint Presentation should include:

  • Your voiceover narration using Screencast-O-Matic for each slide
  • The issue (background information from the website, contamination, clean-up)
  • The major players and stakeholders involved (the people who created the problem, the people who can fix the problem, and the people who are most impacted by the problem)

Read the NAQ article that was posted in the lesson. Knowing what you know from the chapters in this unit (Chapters 9 through 13), discuss the recommendations presented in the article for the Ideal system: Simple, fast documentation with minimal redundancy EHR coordination with patient and family needs and wishes Central source of best practice forms and other resources in a free, vendor-neutral, and accessible library Multidisciplinary collaboration on the design of EHR and CDS systems Data: Standardized, actionable, and interoperable Integration of biomedical devices with the EHR to avoid nurses entering that data Multiple sources of decision support information for clinicians Decision support dashboards Discuss how these recommendations (re: nursing informatics) would affect nursing workflow and meaningful use. Pick and choose some of the ideas from the article and apply them to workflow analysis, system design, and meaningful use concepts from Chapter 13.

Down’s syndrome

/in /by

Mrs. Giovanni is a 92-year-old widowed immigrant from Italy. She is the caregiver of her youngest child, Antonio, who is 47 years old and has Down’s syndrome and lives with her in her home.

Mrs. Giovanni has support once weekly to support her with bathing. Mrs. Giovanni greets you at the door. She is not as bright or cheerful as she usually is. I can see the frown on her face. I look over to find the kitchen looking messy which is unusual for her. She tells you ‘ I haven’t been getting much sleep lately because Antonio has been up all night playing games on that machine and making lots of noise when he is snacking in the kitchen at night”. She continues in a worried voice that “I don’t know what to do with him, he won’t go to the day program because he sleeps all day. I am exhausted, I don’t know how much longer I can go on like this.

As you walk into the bathroom, you ask your usual questions about her garden and her plans for cooking that day. Her answer surprises you when she says, “I just don’t have the energy to do anything, all i can think about is what I am going to do with my boy Antonio.” While she is sitting on the side of the tub removing her stockings you notice Mrs. Giovanni becoming teary.

 

Provide a report to the supervisor using the SBAR tool.

List 3 members of the interprofessional team(not including support workers) that would support the client. Describe the relations for including each team member directly related to the client’s care.

Give me an answer in detail.
