professional quality

Present the findings from your practicum experience in a 10-15-minute presentation for a group of nurses.  Imagine that you presenting this to your coworkers or at a nursing conference.  Make it interesting and visually appealing.

  1. Create a seven- to ten-slide, professional quality presentation with approximately six bullet points per slide.  Slides should contain relevant pictures, tables, and charts when indicated.  In your presentation, address the following information:
    1. Title page
    2. Introduction to the at-risk group. Include descriptive and demographic data.
    3. Description of the community (city or county).
    4. Summary of the needs assessment (step 1).
    5. Summary of the health disparity and recommendation (step 2)
    6. Summary of the community strengths, assets, and programs available for this group (step 3).
    7. Description of the agency and summary of the interview (step 3).
    8. How your plan supports social justice advocacy to improve the health of at-risk populations (new information).
    9. References
  2. Narrate your presentation.  Once you have created your slides, write a script to narrate the presentation in the notes section of your presentation. Your narration text should support and explain the information on the slides. You are also welcome to use a voice over narration.

Keep these quality considerations in mind as you create your presentation::

  • It should be organized and aesthetically pleasing (attractive design, layout, and neatness)
  • Elements on the slide should be aligned and balanced
  • Background, color choices, and font should enhance readability
  • Images support and enhance the topic

Development of Psychopathology

Factors That Influence the Development of Psychopathology

**THIS DISCUSSION IS DIVIDE IN TWO PARTS –

Discussion: Factors That Influence the Development of Psychopathology

In many realms of medicine, objective diagnoses can be made: A clavicula is broken.  An infection is present. TSH levels meet the diagnostic criteria for hypothyroidism. Psychiatry, on the other hand, deals with psychological phenomena and behaviors. Can these, too, be “defined objectively and by scientific criteria (Gergen, 1985), or are they social constructions?” (Sadock et al., 2015).

Thanks to myriad advances during recent decades, we know that psychopathology is caused by many interacting factors. Theoretical and clinical contributions to the field have come from the neural sciences, genetics, psychology, and social-cultural sciences. How do these factors impact the expression, classification, diagnosis, and prevalence of psychopathology, and why might it be important for a nurse practitioner to take a multidimensional, integrative approach?

To Prepare:

Consider how theoretical perspective on psychopathology impacts the work of the PMHNP.

Instructions – Discussion

1.Explain the biological (genetic and neuroscientific); psychological (behavioral and cognitive processes, emotional, developmental); and social, cultural, and interpersonal factors that influence the development of psychopathology.

Building and maintaining collaborative partnerships in public health

Building and maintaining collaborative partnerships in public health is an essential part of public health leadership. Describe how collaboration can serve as a way to build social capital. Discuss two examples of challenges that can arise from collaborations in public health and describe specific qualities and characteristics a public health leader could exhibit to overcome these challenges in collaboration. In replies to peers, provide additional strategies for overcoming the example challenges.

PICOT process

/in /by

PICOT process

PICOT is utilized by the health care community to identify and study nursing or medical practice problem. Consequently, PICOT examples that may provide insight into the use of the PICOT process, may not be relevant to nursing practice as they are based on a medical practice problem.

1. Describe the difference between a nursing practice problem and a medical practice problem. Provide one example of each. Discuss why is it important to ensure your PICOT is based on a nursing practice problem.

2. Nursing research is used to study a dilemma or a problem in nursing. Examine a problem you have seen in nursing. Provide an overview of the problem and discuss why the problem should be studied. Provide rationale and support for your answer.

MINIMUM of 500-word count is expected on each question with at least two (2) two peer-reviewed articles published in reputable journals.

Impact of disorders on the body

pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic processes

NOTE: 300 words with 4 resources within 5 years (2 below + 2 others). Kindly read the instruction below.

As an advanced practice nurse assisting physicians in the diagnosis and treatment of disorders, it is important to not only understand the impact of disorders on the body, but also the impact of drug treatments on the body. The relationships between drugs and the body can be described by pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics.

Pharmacokinetics describes what the body does to the drug through absorption, distribution, metabolism, and excretion, whereas pharmacodynamics describes what the drug does to the body.

When selecting drugs and determining dosages for patients, it is essential to consider individual patient factors that might impact the patient’s pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic processes. These patient factors include genetics, gender, ethnicity, age, behavior (i.e., diet, nutrition, smoking, alcohol, illicit drug abuse), and/or pathophysiological changes due to disease.

For this Discussion, you reflect on a case from your past clinical experiences and consider how a patient’s pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic processes may alter his or her response to a drug.

To Prepare

· Review the Resources and consider the principles of pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics.

· Reflect on your experiences, observations, and/or clinical practices from the last 5 years and think about how pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic factors altered his or her anticipated response to a drug.

· Consider factors that might have influenced the patient’s pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic processes, such as genetics (including pharmacogenetics), gender, ethnicity, age, behavior, and/or possible pathophysiological changes due to disease

· Think about a personalized plan of care based on these influencing factors and patient history in your case study.

ASSIGNMENT

Post a description of the patient case from your experiences, observations, and/or clinical practice from the last 5 years. Then, describe factors that might have influenced pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic processes of the patient you identified. Finally, explain details of the personalized plan of care that you would develop based on influencing factors and patient history in your case. Be specific and provide examples.
