The majority of them will have advanced credentials in specialty areas. The nurses and other staff members emphasize family and patient education to increase the possibility of independence.

Transitioning from nursing school to working in a hospital setting can be a challenging time for a new graduate. Due to the nursing shortage, new graduate nurses are being hired with little to no experience. This is overwhelming for new nurses, especially when they are not getting adequate support or training from the hospital. The amount of stress, pressure, and lack of training is leading to a high turnover rate for new graduate nurses. With patient acuity on the rise, new graduate nurses that are filling these vacancies in the hospitals, need to be competent nurses to provide proper and safe care to the patients.

As mentioned above, the hospital is a full service institution that is well awarded and provides a lot of services. However, even in great institutions, things can be improved for the approximately 200 nurses employed on staff. From the research that this author has doen, the geatest gap in our hospital's educational needs (and possibly the most expensive is the lack of knowledge of HIPAA (Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act) amongst hospital staff nurses.

What most influenced my decision and interpretations in this case was the fact that the students could not be trusted with concealing the identities of the interviewees within the article, since it was proven that their identities were not fully hidden. The topics in the article were about teen pregnancy and criticism of parents, which can be controversial and thus distracting in a school environment. The principal of the school, upon observation, noticed the identities were not hidden well. With a deadline to meet, there was no way the students would have been able to revise the newspaper and reorganize the articles, so the principal took out the pages. In this case the principal made a responsible decision given the interests of the school

FACTS: Tecumseh Oklahoma School District in 1998 enacts a policy of testing students that compete in extracurricular activities. The policy tests students for illegal or non-prescribed legal drugs, and students are tested when signing up for activities and could be tested randomly or due to suspicious behavior. The School District’s drug testing process included allowing students to provide samples in a closed stall, kept results in a confidential file separate from other school records, not provide results to law enforcement, allows students to retest after a time period, and no effect on a students’ academic records.

This experience is meant to act as both training and knowledge, and puts residents into direct contact with other residents, patients, doctors and nurses, and the family members of those that depend on quality care. Although residents will be making decisions and actually treating patients, there is always someone “senior” to ensure that things are done properly and in the best interests of those involved. The goal is to provide residents with the experience necessary to allow them to be successful when they practice on their own, but this comes at a

The increasing need for more educated nurses called for a formal educational program that was started at the University of Colorado ("Nurse Practitioners: Shaping the Future of Health Care • Nursing, History, and Health Care • Penn Nursing," n.d.).

While looking at the new strategies to implement with the focus learner, I concluded that Benjamin would benefit from academic support in literacy. The student had difficulties with long vowels and I found out about new literacy resources to use for teaching him. I also used Benjamin as the focus learner for my edTPA project. To provide the student with extra support, I designed three educational segments about long vowels. In my learning segments, I offered the student many opportunities to practice. It was a pull out for one-on-one supplementary instruction in ELA/Scaffolding and support in language and communication development.

The school to prison pipeline is a barrier in education due to lack of communication and sound policies. The school policy should entail strategies to implement the reach and teach method to minimize some of the on- going distractions in the school environment. School discipline continues to rise in many counties due to the lack of self-discipline. In order for us to be able to reach and teach students, we as adults must be able to communicate with each other without looking at the titles. Subsequently, we need to accept ideas and focus on the main goals instead of contending with each other. Working together to reach and teach is a great effort to move forward.

I am a believer of excellent service through continued education and training. An effective induction comprises of face to face lectures, presentations, discussions, hands-on demonstration, and of course, evaluation. Taking notes is essential during the training so leaflets and handouts should be made available too. The care industry at large, is also a dynamic environment considering the advent of clinical research. Hence, reviews and updates are integral for each individual to be oriented and reoriented. This introductory training can be done on a one to one basis or in group in relation to job requirement. Before the induction training starts, it would be helpful if the type of learners and learning needs are identified. In fact, identifying
