HA405_1802C_-4.1: Develop a plan for healthcare advocacy.

Student work demonstrates the ability to formulate all the components of a healthcare advocacy plan.

Purpose: This assignment provides the student with the opportunity to engage in reflective practice. Reflective practice requires that practitioners examine tacit knowledge and questions that arise within the practitioner during practice. Practitioners who engage in disciplined reflection develop critical thinking skill and refine tacit knowledge into explicit knowledge. Development of leadership behaviors is a process that occurs over time through the use of observation, trial and error, experience and the application of leadership theory to circumstances requiring leadership.

Procedure:

1. Students are required to keep a Journal that reflects your thoughts and observations about

the leadership, management and followership that you observe in your clinical rotations,

read about in your weekly readings or reflect upon in the observations that you make about

leaders in the public eye. All students are required to make a minimum of 4 journal entries

throughout the semester

? What are your professional/educational goals?

? Where do you see yourself in five years? How do you see yourself progressing here?

I’m working on a public health multi-part question and need guidance to help me learn.

Euthanasia (eu=happy; thanasia=death, page 270) originally denoted a painless exit from life. Now it signifies actions taken to hasten death, or the intentional foreshortening of a person’s life to spare that person from further suffering. Active euthanasia refers to actions that end a person’s life; passive euthanasia refers to the withholding of treatment that might prolong life. Given the fact that the person dies with either active or passive approaches, there is continuing controversy regarding the importance of the moral and legal difference between active and passive euthanasia. For this week, we will discuss
What is the literal meaning of the term euthanasia, and in what significant way does current usage of this term differ? Distinguish clearly between active and passive euthanasia.
Explain how the term euthanasia acquired powerful negative associations in this century.
How would you help society to deal with both the negative historical heritage attached to euthanasia and the current issue of physician assisted suicide? Be clear and realistic in your suggestion?
What are your own views on these issues & how did you develop them?
Be sure to support your response with at least five references. You can use your textbook as one of the references

Select an active bill at the state or federal level that impacts the professional practice of nursing. In a 3-4 page paper (excluding the title and reference pages), summarize the provisions of the bill and clearly explain what the bill will accomplish. The paper should be no more than 4 pages, typed in Times New Roman using 12-point font, and double-spaced with 1″ margins.

Your review of a bill paper should:

Discuss the major provisions of the bill.

Demonstrate an in-depth understanding of the legislation by explaining the background and all relevant facts.

• Discuss any relevant history related to the legislation, pertinent votes, and issues that are stalling the legislation,etc.
• Use primary sources for this information.
• Identify key supporters and those who do not support the bill. Explain why some of these individuals support the bill and why some do not.
• Explore the positions of the key stakeholders in the bill, both pros and cons. Do not make assumptions about potential key stakeholders. Examine this area carefully so you are correctly reflecting the stakeholders positions.
• Discuss how the bill would impact a nurse’s ability to provide safe and quality care or to practice to the highest scope of the nursing license.
• Explain specific actions that nurses can take to assist with the passage or defeat of the legislation
