MY NUMBER ASSIGNED WAS 2 WHICH IS: Renal Failure

Each student will be assigned a number randomly.  Whatever your number is, select the corresponding topic below, then post a minimum of 5 bullet points about the topic.

Your bullet points should address key components of the topic, such as what, how, who, & why.  This information should not be basic things you learned in Med/Surg, but rather advanced critical care based. 

Think about this as a group effort to create a study guide. Use ONLY your textbook, but do not cut & paste from the book.

Then create, find, or borrow a test style question about your topic & post at the bottom of your bullet points. The format needs to be multiple choice or select all that apply. Think NCLEX style.

Part 2:

Interview:You will take a few minutes and ask 2 people about their personal coping mechanisms for dealing with the stress of working in healthcare during this unique time of Covid. Stress can be physical, emotional, spiritual, or any combination of triggers. Ask a diverse variety of people, don’t forget those in other departments at different points of hierarchy. For example, ask your unit manager, environmental services, volunteers, patients, fellow nurses, etc. Write 2-3 paragraphs on your findings and impressions while respecting the person’s identity.

The CDC and Healthy People 2020 continue to educate on the importance, the improved ease of access and insurance coverage for screenings and vaccinations. It is the responsibility of nurses to engage our aging adults in self-advocating for services that benefit the individual and community health. How can you, as a registered nurse, impact older adults to encourage routine vaccination? What impact does this have on the community as a whole?

At least 400 words in length and utilize at least one scholarly source

After identifying the articles to be used in your literature review, conduct a critical analysis of each article and summarize the findings. The literature you choose should support your proposed
intervention.

Week 7 – Discussion

Please note there are two parts to this week's discussion.

Part 1 – This week as we explore current legislative efforts, health care policies, and the need for health promotion in our communities, please visit the ANA webpage related to advocacy issues in nursing practice today 
(See the pdf with the links attached) When entering the web page, you will need to scroll down the page and choose one of the following issues highlighted: Health Care Reform, Safe Staffing, Nurse Workforce Development, or Home Health. Based on your selection of topics, address the following in your discussion post:

· How does this issue affect your practice and the health promotion topic of your choice?

· From what you learned at the site, name a minimum of two actions that are currently in place to address this issue.

· Provide a minimum of two ways you as a professional nurse can become involved with this issue.

· Be sure you have referenced the ANA website in APA format and provided in-text citations where you used the information from ANA in your post.

Part 2 – Many of the advocacy issues in nursing practice impact the work environment of nurses. It is important for nurses to care for themselves so that they can best care for their patients. Consider the information covered in this unit regarding self-care and respond to the following questions:

· What are the signs that someone is experiencing burnout?

· What are some evidence-based strategies you can implement to help prevent burnout and build resilience?

Support your response with in-text citations and APA-formatted scholarly references.
