It is nearly impossible to learn EVERYTHING about EVERY SINGLE drug we encounter. While it is important for us to look up select information about unfamiliar medications we administer, we can know the general indications and nursing interventions related to a drug if we learn key information about the drug classifications. For this assignment, you will be collecting information about different groups of drugs, or drug classifications, found in your Pharmacology textbook and creating a PowerPoint presentation (At least 10 slides long including the reference slide).

Choose a drug classification (Examples: Typical or Atypical Antipsychotics, Anxiolytics, SSRI, Tricyclic Antidepressants, MAOI, mood stabilizers, opiates, NSAIDs, etc.) that is discussed in Unit Six or Unit Seven in Pharmacology: A Patient-Centered Nursing Process Approach textbook and then use your Davis’s Drug Guide or another SCHOLARLY source to provide the following information:

• Summary of the Drug Classification (what different medical conditions are these drugs used to treat?) and list the names of 2-4 drugs in your chosen drug classification
• Typical routes of administration
• Common side effects and adverse effects common for the drug classification
• Special considerations (caution with renal or liver insufficiency, harmful drug-drug interactions, etc.)
•  

Compliance planning is a major focus for healthcare organizations today. There are many laws, regulations and other factors that require compliance, so creating a compliance plan is key. Organizations that are not within the compliance guidelines can face many negative situations, from fines to possible loss of license and closure.

Instructions

• You are the office manager for a newly licensed and opened a small community hospital. You need to create a compliance plan for your organization to follow to ensure that all guidelines are met and no outstanding issues are present.

In our course work we are learning some of the best practices in human resources management that are validated by research and practical outcomes.

In order to understand the practical aspects of these practices and how they have been applied by successful organizations in healthcare and other service industries, we will review a number of key practices and that have been identified in Fortune’s Best Companies to work for over time. 

1. Read the attached article “What Makes It So Great?  An Analysis of Human Resources Practices among Fortune’s Best Companies to Work for.”
2. Identify at least two of the practices presented that you, as a present or future healthcare leader believe are of most value.
3. Choose one of the healthcare organizations presented in the article and provide an overview of how they have put one or more of the practices that you have chosen into place.
4. Be sure to take into consideration the challenges facing healthcare leaders presented by the pandemic and why the practices that you chose are important to you; and, how they may affect you as a future leader.

Insurance Fraud and Abuse

Health insurance fraud is a problem globally, and Saudi Arabia is not immune. Assume you have been tasked with presenting this problem to your healthcare organization so employees can act appropriately when processing health insurance claims. Be sure to address:

Actions      that would be considered fraudulent;

Key      indicators that fraud is present;

The      impact of fraud on the medical community, health insurance companies, and      Saudi Arabia; and

How to      report health insurance fraud and penalties for those that participate in      such behavior.

• Your presentation should meet the following structural requirements:

Be      organized, using professional themes and transitions.

• Consist      of seven slides, plus the title and reference slides.

Each      slide must provide detailed speaker’s notes—a minimum of 100 words. Notes      must draw from and cite relevant reference materials.

• Provide      support for your statements on the presentation slides, as well as in the      speaker’s notes, with in-text citations from a minimum of four scholarly      articles. Two of these sources may be from the class readings, textbook,      or lectures, but the others must be external. The Saudi Digital Library is      a good place to find these references.

 develop an 8-14 slide PowerPoint presentation with thorough speaker’s notes designed for a hypothetical in-service session related to the safe medication administration improvement plan you developed in Assessment 2.As a practicing professional, you are likely to present educational in-services or training to staff pertaining to quality improvement (QI) measures of safety improvement interventions. Such in-services and training sessions should be presented in a creative and innovative manner to hold the audience’s attention and promote knowledge acquisition and skill application that changes practice for the better. The teaching sessions may include a presentation, audience participation via simulation or another interactive strategy, audiovisual media, and participant learning evaluation.The use of in-services and/or training sessions has positive implications for nursing practice by increasing staff confidence when providing care to specific patient populations. It also allows for a safe and nonthreatening environment where staff nurses can practice their skills prior to a real patient event. Participation in learning sessions fosters a team approach, collaboration, patient safety, and greater patient satisfaction rates in the health care environment (Patel & Wright, 2018
