NAPE Workshop: A Case Study

The newborn and infant physical examination, NIPE, is performed by a qualified NIPE practitioner (Department of Health, DoH, 2015; Public Health England, PHE, 2013), within the first seventy-two hours of an infant’s life. This screening consists of a head-to-toe examination of the infant, including, but not limited to: the heart; the eyes; and the hips. During the examination, the practitioner will take the time to promote good health and wellbeing of the infant, by teaching the family how to identify signs of a well and unwell infant (Someren, 2013). The intention of the examination is to assess whether the infant has any congenital abnormalities (DoH, 2015; PHE, 2013). The NIPE is a developmental examination which is replicated between six and eight weeks after the infant’s birth, to screen for congenital disorders that become prominent in their physiology within this time period.

In the times in which we live technology, knowledge, development strategies and the environment involve a complex panorama that the U.S. Army must face. The most efficient way is through specialized training and looking for means to develop NCOs for the challenges of upcoming event. The NCO 2020 strategy changes the way we educate and train our Soldiers. The educational model used by the military in the last decade was the Noncommissioned Officer Education System (NCOES). This now going to be transformed into Noncommissioned Officer Professional Development System, or NCOPDS. One of the most important goals of this new educational model is that it will provide the Soldier with a long-term career focused on the training, education and experiences acquired during his career, being these institutional, operational or self-development.

According to Shellebarger & Edwards (2012), Nurse Educators help shape the future of nursing by educating future novice nurses. Nurse Educators have a core curriculum to follow to ensure lifelong learning in their role. They help shape critical thinking skills in our future nurses by giving them the knowledge needed to think critically. “ Evidence has found that hospital based nurse educators influence safe patient outcome through contemporary evidence based teaching and their contribution of policy development supports safe practice” (Sayers,2012, p. 45). Nurse Administrators take on the role of patient advocates, by ensuring that patients are receiving the highest level of care (Hamic, Hanson, Tracy, & O’Grady, 2014). Nurse Administrators are an important part of management of nurses , they help develop policies and procedures and are change agents in their fields. The Nurse Educator and the Nurse Administrator should be

The purpose of this letter is to serve as my initial inquiry as to whether an issue I feel strongly about is appropriate as an Alaska State ballot initiative. My proposal would be to put on the ballot for the citizens of Alaska whether or not they should be bound by the agreement under the Uniform Child Custody Jurisdiction and Enforcement Act (UCCJEA). My concern is that the UCCJEA sounds good in theory, but in practice is hopelessly flawed due to the different ethical and legal standards which the courts of various states uphold. The UCCJEA does not elevate the standards of the inferior courts, rather it brings the best of states down to the lowest ethical level of the worst state in the agreement. The citizens of Alaska should not forfeit their rights

I feel ShappingNJ will bring value as a partnership to my initiative, obesity prevention. As a partnership with the state of New Jersey, the ShapingNJ organization focus is on helping the community with nutrition, physical activity, and preventive obesity by improving the population of health of those in need to lead healthier lifestyles (State of New Jersey Department of Health, 2009-2017).

The victory in Colorado directed NAWSA to plan campaigns around the United States, where recurring disapproval ascended against the suffragists. Catt’s Organizational Committee made more money than the association itself during 1897, where one thousand meetings took place in the promotion of suffrage organizations and politicians. Her work on the Organization Committee generated her to be most qualified candidate in the replacement of Susan B. Anthony as president of NAWSA. In 1900, Anthony resigned her position in presidency and Catt was elected for the role.

There are disparities in healthcare between different races, ages, genders, etc., and these issues need to be addressed. The Nurse Practitioner Healthcare Foundation (NPHF) has a diversity code. They emphasize the importance of cultural competency and the value of diversity. Cultural competency is viewed as a core element for the fulfillment of the healthcare needs of people around the world. “In fact, diversity is the lens through which we must view people's healthcare needs. The Nurse Practitioner Healthcare Foundation (NPHF) celebrates, respects, and values the inherent worth of every individual, and is committed to promoting the inclusion of every single person in the healthcare system” (NPHF, 2015).

Keia is a 31yo, G2 P0100, who is currently 9 weeks 6 days as dated by a 6-week scan that was off from her LMP. She has a history of an IUFD at 29 weeks. She reports that she had decreased fetal movement prior to coming in and there being no fetal heart tones on examination, but other than that there were no other significant precipitating events. She did have an increased risk for Down syndrome at 1:140 but per the old reports all of her analytes were within normal limits. At the time of delivery, the baby did appear to be appropriate weight and there were no obvious causes at the time of delivery. She reports that she had chromosomes performed after and the chromosomes were negative. She also thinks she had a full autopsy that was unremarkable. She did have a work-up for clotting disorders due to the history of loss and according to the chart everything is relatively within normal limits except for MTHFR which was heterozygous for C677T and A1298C. I did not see beta-2 glycoprotein or antithrombin III. Because of the relatively normal work-up she is on a baby aspirin and Metanx. She is here today to discuss her history and plans for this pregnancy.

2. The previous NCOER NCOIC departed unexpectedly two months ago due to a compassionate reassignement, and he was out the majority of the previous sixty days prior to his departure due to medical and personal issues. As such, the corrections the battalion CSM required on the NCOERs were not done and the NCOERs were not processed in a timely fashion.

Infants and children are more at risk to catch an illness due to cold temperatures within the home. This can be due to number of reasons which includes physiological, the length of time they spend in the house, increase fuel poverty and crowding in houses. The respiratory health of children that live in cold homes often suffer. The NATCEN study 15% of children who had lived in cold and damp homes for at least three years have had respiratory problems compared to 6% of children who had never lived in cold and damp homes. It is stated by Howden-Chapman and Hales (2013) That families that are in fuel poverty are more likely to have colder homes and this can really make a huge impact on a child’s health. Other families that are using prepayment

Today health care systems are expected to meet set standards and core measures to earn everything from accreditation and recognition to payment. Reports need to filled to accomplish this, as well as what is being done to improve areas that may not be meeting standards. One way this is done is by utilizing dashboards. The purpose of this paper is to analyze the data from a dashboard and develop a nursing plan for improvement of a low scoring area.
