[Solved] Providing Preventative Care Including

 

The PMHNP role has the theoretical orientation, education, and scope to be an effective provider of child and adolescent mental health services. The American Psychiatric Nurses Association (APNA) takes the policy position that psychiatric nurses should be considered members of the primary care workforce; this is in contrast to the traditional medical model, which positions mental health care as a specialty discipline. The responsibilities of the PMHNP role are founded on the nursing process and therapeutic relationship and include: educating patients and families; diagnosing, treating, and managing acute illness; providing psychotherapy; prescribing medication for acute and chronic illness; diagnosing, treating, and managing acute illness; providing care coordination; making referrals; ordering, performing, and interpreting lab tests, diagnostic studies; and providing preventative care including screening (APNA, 2019).

ENVIRONMENTAL AND BIOLOGICAL EFFECTS ON INTELLIGENCE AND ACHIEVEMENT

Intelligence tests are controversial, partly because they sometimes determine important aspects of people’s lives. For example, intelligence test scores have factored into determining school placement, identifying giftedness, and diagnosing mental retardation and learning disabilities. Even when an intelligence test shows that a child has normal intelligence, there might be speculation of a learning disability due to him or her falling behind in academic achievement. A child’s biology and environment influences his or her academic achievement, as well. Children from different cultures and socioeconomic status have diverse experiences, beliefs, and attitudes that affect their academic achievement. There are also differences in skills that caregivers emphasize during a child’s development that contribute to a child’s school readiness, which influences intelligence and academic achievement.

Intelligence and academic achievement are often used to determine many aspects of a person’s life, including the diagnosis of a learning disability. Most identifiers of learning disabilities are seen within the realm of intelligence and achievement. The Individuals with Disabilities Education Improvement Act of 2004 is an example of a federal mandate that allows for identification of indicators of learning disabilities, such as limited response to intervention or a meaningful discrepancy between a student’s intelligence and achievement scores. When diagnosing a learning disability in determining a child’s intelligence, a combination of indicators is more accurate than a single test score.

For this Discussion, you will explore the differences between intelligence and academic achievement (as opposed to other types of achievement). You also will examine environmental and/or biological influences on intelligence and academic achievement.

RESOURCES

Be sure to review the Learning Resources before completing this activity.
Click the weekly resources link to access the resources. 

To prepare for this Discussion:

  • Review this week’s Learning Resources related to intelligence and academic achievement and consider environmental and biological influences.
  • Select two influences: environmental and/or biological (you can select two of either category or one of each) that have been associated with intelligence and academic achievement.

Post an explanation of the difference between intelligence and academic achievement. Then, briefly describe the two environmental and/or biological influences you selected. Explain the effects of each influence on intelligence and academic achievement. Be specific and provide examples from your Learning Resources. Use proper APA format and citations.

[Solved] “ Hear ” Things

 Reflect on your own journey of cultural competency, including the concepts and experiences addressed in this course. Address the following four objectives and express your personal level of achievement of each objective:

  • Explore your own cultural identity and heritage and confront biases and stereotypes.
  • Develop an awareness and understanding of the complexities of the modern healthcare delivery system – its philosophy and problems, biases, and stereotypes.
  • Develop a keen awareness of the socialization process that brings the provider into this complex system.
  • Develop the ability to “hear” things that transcend language, and to foster an understanding of the patient and his or her cultural heritage, and the resilience found within the culture that supports family and community structures.

Identify areas in which you see the need for further development and improvement. Create a professional development plan to address these areas. Include web-based and/or community resources and opportunities for service that can assist you in working toward achievement of the above objectives.

Using a simple table with two columns label your columns Personal Cultural Need in Column 1 and Achieving the Need in Column 2.

[Solved] Achieving Desired Health Care

  • Create an abstract (100-250 words) and a poster for a presentation with voice-over for a quality improvement plan to executive-level leadership.
    Introduction
  • TOPIC- DIABETES MELLITUS
    Note: Each assessment in this course builds on the work you completed in the previous assessment. Therefore, it is recommended that you complete the assessments in this course in the order in which they are presented.
    As a master’s-level nurse you will be responsible for promoting equitable quality of care. In the biopsychosocial model of care, there are a number of areas where you can have an impact on improving the quality, safety, and equitability of care. One example area where equitable quality of care is an issue is with medications, especially considering the cost of various medications to treat the same condition versus the effectiveness and potential side-effects of the medications. A further pharmacological concern for safe and quality care is medication errors. This could include considerations like a patient getting the wrong medication or a dangerous interaction due to other aspects of a patient’s health and treatment situation. An example could be vitamin or herbal supplements the patient has not disclosed as part of the medication reconciliation process.
    The ability to propose and promote quality improvements in care is a vital skill for a master’s-prepared nurse. One aspect of this is understanding strategies for implementing best practice changes in a team, department, or care setting. Another is understanding how best practices can help lead to a continuous quality improvement cycle. Additionally, it is important to grasp how successful change strategies can be leveraged to help in the creation or implementation of clinical best practices. Part of this is considering the audience when proposing quality improvement projects or new best practices. Another part of this is being able to effectively communicate the goals, rationale, and benefits of a project.
    One way to communicate the need for quality improvements, and your plans for achieving specific improvements, is through a presentation poster. This type of communication tool is used both in the work place and at professional and academic conferences. Being able to convey the essence and value of a project in a compelling and succinct way is a valuable skill, and it is vital within the constraints of a single poster.
    Professional Context
    As a master’s-level nurse, you will be responsible for promoting equitable quality of care. In the biopsychosocial (BPS) model of care, there are a number of areas where you can have an impact on improving the quality, safety, and equitability of care. One example area where equitable quality of care is an issue is with medications, especially considering the cost of various medications to treat the same condition versus the effectiveness and potential side-effects of the medications. A further pharmacological concern for safe and quality care is medication errors. This could include considerations like a patient getting the wrong medication or a dangerous interaction due to other aspects of a patient’s health and treatment situation. An example could be vitamin or herbal supplements the patient has not disclosed as part of the medication reconciliation process.
    Scenario
    For this assessment, you may take any number of approaches. Two suggestions are:

    • Build upon the clinical issue that was the focus of your Change Strategy and Implementation assessment, and turn it into a full, organization- or community-wide quality improvement (QI) initiative.
    • Or, identify a new issue related to a BPS clinical issue. The focus here should be on a specific patient or health care setting
    • As a master’s-level nurse, your specific focus is on reviewing the implications of the data relevant to the clinical issue you are trying to address. Once you research this, review the aggregate data, and understand the BPS considerations relevant to the clinical issue, you can suggest strategies for improving the quality, equitability, and safety of care around the issue. You should act as an advocate for the value and need to pursue quality improvements to leadership and executives, as well as be able to present potential projects to a wide range of colleagues and community stakeholders.
      Instructions
      Create an abstract and a poster for a presentation with voice-over to your colleagues that will sell them on your quality improvement plan.
      Abstract Requirements
    • Your abstract should be 100–250 words.
    • It should summarize the key information in your poster.
    • Do not put your abstract on the poster itself; submit it as a separate document. Or, if you are using PowerPoint to help create your poster, create a new slide that is clearly labeled as your abstract.
    • Poster Requirements
    • Your poster should include the following sections: 
      • Quality Improvement Methods.
      • Evidence Supporting QI Methods.
      • Change Strategy Foundation.
      • Interprofessional Team Benefits.
      • Overall Project Benefits.
    • There are templates in PowerPoint or on the Internet that can help you get a start designing your poster.
    • The bullet points below correspond to the grading criteria in the scoring guide. Be sure that your presentation addresses all of the bullets below. You may also want to read the Quality Improvement Presentation Poster scoring guide and Guiding Questions: Quality Improvement Presentation Poster [DOCX] to better understand how each grading criterion will be assessed.
    • Propose quality improvement methods to promote continuous improvement related to a specific biopsychosocial consideration.
    • Evaluate specific evidence that supports the quality improvement methods proposed.
