It is still based on the first SMART GOALS submitted as a power point that you did for me and I sent it to you here.

Answer preview

I expected to see healthcare professionals attending to numerous tasks and responsibilities during my clinical experience. Since this phenomenon can prevent healthcare professionals from managing their time effectively, my final SMART goal was to learn at least three-time management skills by the end of the second day of my clinical experience. One of the things I learned was that my African American colleagues had excellent time management skills, contrary to popular misconceptions and stereotypes about African Americans’ poor time management. The most valuable experience I acquired related to this goal was the importance of managing my time effectively, despite the numerous responsibilities and tasks I have. This experience impacted my personal and professional life, considering I endeavored to always be on time. The time management skills I learned from my preceptor and colleagues allowed me to do this. Learning how to manage my time effectively is directly related to the course’s objectives.

using specific evidence-based strategies to promote health literacy. Read the attached scenario transcript and discuss the following:

  1. Explain and discuss in simple terms how cigarette smoking causes coronary artery disease.

Use APA (7th edition) format for in-text citations and at least three scholarly references, preferably from provider-based or NP-based journals to support your evidence.

Answer preview

Several procedures help people with coronary heart disease to cope and lead normal lives. One of the most common is graft surgery, which reduces the arteries’ thinning (Malakar et al., 2019). Quitting smoking contributes a great deal to the success of the surgery because it ensures that the arteries do not shrink again. Ingestion of medicine for CAD and counseling equally help a person’s journey to quit smoking (Kamceva et al., 2016). In conclusion, treatment for coronary artery disease lowers the risk of heart attack caused by smoking and helps a person lead a better life.

Ethical dilemmas in healthcare

/in /by

Professional ethics are at the foundation of nursing practice. Exploring ethical and legal issues that commonly arise in the practice of
the health care professional provides student nurses with the knowledge they need to understand their role in providing ethical care to
their patients. Ethical dilemmas in healthcare are not unique to nurses; however, the health care landscape is changing at an
unprecedented rate creating the potential for new dilemmas in practice. By examining the role of the nurse in collaboration with other
health care professionals, students learn the foundations for critically analyzing ethical dilemmas in nursing practice, clarifying values
and promoting moral considerations regarding health care challenges.
Develop a scholarly paper from one (1) of the following ethical topics/issues:
a. Professional Standards and Institutional Ethics
b. Ethical Problems of Death and Dying Assignment Criteria

Each student will develop a scholarly paper and include the following:
1. Describe the ethical topic AND a potential ethical dilemma as it relates to the ethical topic/issue.
a. Identify the stakeholders who are impacted or who may potentially be impacted by this ethical topic/issue.
b. Identify the legal concerns associated with the topic/issue.
2. Explore professional and personal values related to the ethical topic/issue.
a. Describe and support a position (values, attitudes, beliefs) on the issue, provide examples supported by current
literature.
b. Provide an alternative position on the issue, provide examples describing the alternative viewpoint with examples
supported by current literature.
3. Identify and discuss any new knowledge gained related to the topic/issue.
4. The scholarly paper should be 4-5 pages excluding the title and reference page.
5. Include an introductory paragraph, purpose statement, and a conclusion.
6. Include level 1 and 2 headings to organize the paper.
7. Write the paper in third person, not first person (meaning do not use ‘we’ or ‘I’) and in a scholarly manner. To clarify I, we,
you, me, and our may not be used. In addition, describing yourself as the researcher or the author should not be used. The
exception to this rule is if/when you do the reflective piece as it relates to your position (values) at the end.
8. Include a minimum of (4) professional peer-reviewed scholarly journal references to support the paper (review in Ulrich
Periodical Directory) and be less than five (5) years old.
9. APA format is required (attention to spelling/grammar, a title page, a reference page, and in-text citations).

Answer preview

One of the emerging ethical concerns regarding death and dying is poor communication which nurses may experience during the decision-making, especially when the patient cannot speak for themselves and the family members have a hard time making the best decision for their loved one. End-of-life discussions are always difficult. However, communicating with patients early and asking them about their wishes ensures a clear line of communication. Nurses should advocate for regular meetings with family members to ensure they are all on the same page regarding the patient’s health and the best steps to take in case the patient’s health deteriorates (Frost, Bosward, Aquino, Braunack-Mayer, & Carter, 2022). The second ethical dilemma is compromised patients’ autonomy. As a nurse, it is vital to consider the best treatment route by respecting patients’ autonomy. The nurse should encourage patients and their family members to discuss end-of-life care in advance so that nurses can provide care and maintain the patient’s wishes in case the patient loses the ability to make decisions. That prevents the nurse and the family members from getting into a compromising situation.

Answer preview

There is a need to clarify the consistency in roles, standards of practice, credentialing, and skills required for NPs APNs and distinguish their definitions. Countries have different jurisdictions regarding NPs and ANPs; for instance, in the UK, the NP title is not protected under any governmental regulation, while in other countries, such as the US, Ireland, and Canada, the title is protected by regulations (Hamric et al., 2014). This can only be achieved through the collaboration of professional healthcare providers and stakeholders. The roles played by NPs and APNs have contributed to improving patient outcomes as nurses can perform their duties to their full potential. NPs are an important facet of nursing, and the integration of NPs as the role of APNs has achieved many milestones in the healthcare industry.

Pal, 2018). The dynamic nature of a society or the constant changing of things allows for adopting new and fresh ideas to drive the new system.

Paradigm shifts are necessary due to their relevance in serving the needs of new developments. There have been many paradigmatic shifts in health and medicine over the past century, some of which have paved the way for even more paradigm shifts. An example of a paradigm in the medical world was the concept of international health, which was later replaced by the global health paradigm. The change from international to global health is an example of a paradigm shift. International health primarily focuses on national ways of combating health issues regarding disease and treatment (Kumar & Pal, 2018). Global health introduced cooperation among states and developed mechanisms to tackle pandemics and global health outbreaks.
