Rlt2 Task 1

Global warming is not myth, but is a real thing. Scientists have proven that over and over global warming is real. According to scientific reports 11 out of 12 years have ranked among the warmest on record. This increase temperature has many effects on the environment. Global warming creates nature?s imbalance and it has big impact on weather. Global warming is big part of the reason for sudden heat waves, storms and floods. There are many causes for global warming, but two main causes are burning fossil fuel and deforestation. Both of these causes increase greenhouse gases in the environment which creates greenhouse effects, the scientific reason for global warming.

Awareness of what health threats I might be susceptible to, and information I learned in this course about health behavior change has led me to take primary and secondary prevention actions (Straub, 2014, pp. 204). Knowing that I have a predisposition to breast cancer, ovarian cancer, hypertension, and heart problems has motivated me to exercise and improve my physical fitness, and visit the doctor more regularly to stay as healthy as possible and keep myself from getting sick. I don’t do drugs or drink alcohol because such behaviors can cause short-term and especially long-term health consequences. These are examples of primary prevention. At a recent visit to the doctor, I was informed that I have high cholesterol,

The state of Kansas is in the Midwestern United States. The state of Kansas is renowned for its agriculture. It ranks number seven in regard to agriculture production in the United States (Nelson & Staggers, 2014). Wyandotte County is located in Kansas City . Wyandotte County seats west of Kansas City, Missouri. The county of Wyandotte consists of a total population of 163,369 people according to the latest census. The majority of inhabitants are whites, black Americans and Hispanic making up 95,048 46,233 and 26,139 persons respectively. The rest of the population is from other races. The county population spread out as follow with 28.5% under the age of 18, 10% from 18 to 24, 29.5% from 25 to 44, 19.90% from 45 to 64, and 11.70% is older adult 65 years of age or older. The leading cause of mortality

Today, as many as 3.5% of children in the United States are being diagnosed with Conduct Disorders some as early as age three (Perou, et al., 2013). Research has shown that CD is a behavior that predicts Oppositional Defiant Disorder and Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder symptoms at age six (Harvey and Metcalfe, 2013).

The National Center for Learning Disabilities (2016) or NCLD was founded in 1977. Based on information provided by NCLD (2016) their mission is to improve the lives of children and adults with learning and attention issues. The National Center for Learning Disabilities (2016) advocates for equal rights and opportunities for the learning disabled community by providing programs and reporting on related issues. The NCLD (2016) website gives access and information on programs that cater to parents, young adults, professionals, and educators about learning disabilities.I appreciate The NCLD (2016) website provides for children and their parents as well as professionals. As a future educator, i welcome any additional resources I can use in the future for my own classroom or even aide another colleague. I especially appreciate the Get Ready to Read program(2016) “a free early Learning Resource” Intended for educators .However I believe, parents can use the Get Ready to Read program(2016) for their own kids who are not yet in school or as a extra teaching tool in conjunction with their children's

She was referred to a diabetes care team for specialist treatment and monitoring when she was diagnosed with diabetes as diabetes can’t be cured but treated. Because its on-going the treatment is to ensure that her blood glucose level is as normal as possible, to control her symptoms and to prevent health problems developing later in life. Because Rhea’s body doesn't produce insulin, she needs regular insulin injections to keep her glucose levels normal as diabetes can cause serious long-term health problems. For example, it's the most common cause of blindness in people of working age. Because of this Rhea is encouraged to have her eyes screened at least once a year for diabetic retinopathy. Diabetes is also the reason for many cases of kidney

I’m writing to propose an initiative to reform Arizona’s high school curriculum to include digital technology as a part of the graduation requirements for students. Implementing technology courses as part of the core standards in high school provides opportunities for students to learn how to effectively communicate and share ideas with others. This is skill they will use and need in future opportunities when communicating with business peers who live in different parts of the world.

The advantages of the use of secondary data in needs assessment, design and implementation of intervention measures, and policy changes are numerous. Secondary data are less expensive, this implies that time, money and other resources are saved (Healey & Zimmerman, 2010). My focus for this discussion is Case Study 2, which addressed the health needs assessment of the Waupaca County. Waupaca County, Wisconsin is a rural community of over 50,000 residents (Gilmore, 2012). Given that, it is a popular tourist location, and the survey given had a clause of “do not complete if you are not a city resident”, there exists a chance that all data obtained by primary sources might not be without errors, as tourists might erroneously fill out the survey. Consequently, the secondary method I will apply to collection of data is the use of the American Fact Finder from the United States Census Bureau (n.d.).

I met with Dr. Slack Tuesday regarding the SRCL inventory that has to be kept post SRCL. Because materials were purchased with federal funds inventory must be kept up to 5 years. She did tell me that possibly a check would happen within the first 3 years after the end of the grant. At this point I think we have a couple of options and I will defer to your suggestions:

number of patients entering and leaving the lists at the various stages will differ between

The specific change being proposed is to institute bedside report. Bedside report would improve communication among caregivers and increase patients and families’ understanding of their visit. During the bedside report, the off-going nurse and the oncoming-nurse would double check intravenous fluids, intravenous sites, and the presence of safety equipment and alarms. Bedside report and the two-person safety check is essential for patient safety. Bedside report allows for a visual inspection of the patient which increases accountability, decreases potential

The situation of Length of Stay (LOS) is a complex issue of the healthcare environment. Each patient requires the effort of many different resources-both people and equipment- before they are clinically fit to go home or more to the next stage of their healthcare journey. Failure to coordinate and synchronize resources across the entire patient journey results in a major loss of optimal care for the patient as well as wasted expense. For the patient the consequences of this delay can be dire. One solution to this growing epidemic is being initiated in the Intensive Care Unit (ICU) at

This new facility can also bring out about the opportunity to convert the department into a single room Neonatal Intensive Care Unit. The current layout of the department follows that of the majority of NICUs. This being a large open unit, with a smaller subsection commonly referred to as a pod or bay. Single room NICU have a centralized nursing/medical stations with individual room for each patient. These rooms often have a private bathroom and sleep area for the family. Now, development of new technology for monitoring, have eliminated the need to have the patient directly in front of the caregiver, allowing

I don’t know whether it is my fortune or not but I came across thing that nurses at the unit may not even seen during their time there. My preceptor even commented that I see crazy thing. This week when I followed the nurse instead of my preceptor as mentioned previously, I had the opportunity to see a shoulder dystocia birth. The nurses performed the McRoberts and the suprapubic pressure on the patient. I remember that when I discussed with

The obstetric unit in hospitals is one of the major departments of any hospital that needs to operate 24 hours a day to the emergent nature of patients. The services offered in the unit are, provision of labor and delivery services to patients, care for patients during the postpartum period, provide newborn care services, undertake surgeries when necessary, transport high risk babies and mothers for advanced care units. Similarly, evaluation of patients who are in labor experiencing abnormalities in both pre-labor and post birth periods, and any other
