“Emergency Situations” Please respond to the following:

Suppose you work in a hospital that just received twelve patients from a disaster event in your community. Your hospital is able to treat and provide necessary surgical services to those that require surgery. However, five patients are refusing care and requesting to be transferred to another hospital for the same services. Suggest the course of action that the hospital should take to meet the standards of the Emergency Medical Treatment and Active Labor Act (EMTALA) related to public health in your community. Provide at least two (2) specific examples to support your rationale.
Imagine that an unidentified individual with a gunshot wound has been transported to the emergency room. After taking the victim into surgery, the medical team realizes the individual is a minor. Examine the kind of consent that the team should obtain, and determine the resources that they could utilize in order to obtain this consent.

Assignment 3: Concept Synthesis Paper on Personal Nursing Philosophy

 

Overview

 

You are required to submit a scholarly paper in which you will identify, describe, research, and apply the concepts that underlie your personal philosophy for professional nursing practice.

 

This will help you identify your own values and beliefs about the established metaparadigms and metatheories of the discipline. It will also help you identify and articulate concepts relevant to your specific practice. This paper is intended to be an exercise in clarification and organization of your professional foundation. You are also required to provide a list of assumptions from personal nursing practice that illustrate the concepts and framework of your theory.

 

Your paper should follow a format that includes:

 

Nursing Autobiography: A brief (1 page) discussion of your background in nursing.

 

my background :   In regards to the professional field, I received my BSN degree in Habana Cuba in 1996 and received my RN license in the State of Florida on October 13, 2014. My nursing practice was as emergency care nursing and internal medicine unit at “Calixto Garcia Hospital”, Cuba for three years, where provide care for patients with life-threatening medical conditions and look after patients who have experienced invasive surgery, accidents and/or trauma. Careful assessment and monitoring of patient progress in order to watch for sudden or subtle changes in a patient’s medical condition that might require emergency intervention and heart monitoring as well as treatment adjustments.

 

Moreover,  I have been in the medical field in United State for more than 13 years working in Home Health Service and Rehabilitation Center in Miami. In my work experience I have been required to demonstrate many of the skills for the Family Nurse Practitioner. I have also undertaken leadership role during my career monitoring nursing students. I have done so successfully and have enjoyed this experience.

 

 

 

• The Four Metaparadigms:Identification, discussion, and documentation from the literature of your perspective on the basic four metaparadigms/concepts of patient, nurse, health, and environment.

 

• Two Practice-Specific Concepts: Identification, discussion, and documentation from the literature of your perspective on at least two other concepts specific to your own practice.

 

• List of Propositions: A numbered list of at least five propositions or assumption statements that clearly connect the concepts described.

 

Consider the following questions as you complete your various tasks related to this assignment.

 

1.	How do I define and employ the four basic metaparadigms of nursing theory in my professional practice?
2.	What are the major concepts I employ that are unique to my professional practice?
3.	What philosophies and theories from the literature of nursing and other disciplines/domains are consistent with these concepts?
4.	How are the concepts of transcultural nursing, the health promotion model, skill acquisition, role theory, and change theory specifically integrated into my philosophy and practice?
5.	What research supports these theories and concepts?
6.	How do I integrate role and change theory into my professional practice and how may these theories be applied to the organization in which I practice?

 

The paper is to be thoroughly researched and well documented, with relevant material from the nursing theorists presented incorporated into the paper. Use the current edition of the APAManual throughout the paper. Sources should focus on references from nursing theory but may also include conceptual and theoretical material from other professional domains. The paper, excluding references or appendices, is to be limited to 9 pages.

provide a brief overview of the theorist’s background. You could also complete a 1-page summary for each of the five articles related to the theory and theorist the top of the page should have the complete reference in APA format.

Project: Group Presentation on Nursing Theorist
Overview of the Project
This course project requires you to complete a group task. As a group you are required to submit a presentation on the theorist assigned to your group. Your final presentation is due in Week 4.
Group Formation
You will be organized into three groups each of which will be assigned a nursing theorist. The theorists to be studied include but are not limited to Madeline LeiningerTranscultural Nursing Theory Nola Pender; the Health Promotion Model and Patricia Benner; From Novice to Expert the Skill Acquisition ModelIf your group would like to study a different theorist seek permission from your instructor. Each group will conduct a literature review to obtain material related to the assigned theorist and the model. The material should include research conducted in the theory or model with clinical examples.

Project Deliverables
The Project Deliverables include the following:
1. Packet of Materials
Each group will prepare a packet of materials that will be posted to the DQ section in Week 4 for peer critique and submitted to the W4: Assignment 2 Dropbox. The purpose of this packet is to support your PowerPoint Presentation. The packet should include a detailed outline of the presentation and a one-page summary of each of the five relevant articles on or about the theory. Also include any handouts such as charts diagrams or definitions which will facilitate understanding of the PowerPoint presentation and the theory itself.

Please note: It is expected that each one of you will download and read each presentation and will include relevant material about each theorist in your individual concept papers.
Working Ahead
In Week 1 your group will be assigned the theorist on whom you have to make the presentation. Your final group presentation is due in Week 4. However it is recommended that in Week 2 you submit the work you have done on the project up to that point to the facilitator when necessary. The facilitator feedback will help you revise and refine the work already completed and apply the facilitator recommendations to the yet-to-be completed part of the project.
For ease of completion it is suggested that in Week 1 you begin your literature search on the theorist and provide a brief overview of the theorist’s background. You could also complete a 1-page summary for each of the five articles related to the theory and theorist the top of the page should have the complete reference in APA format. In Week 2 you can focus on providing your findings on the theorist’s view of the four basic metaparadigms . In Week 3 you can concentrate on providing the basic theoretical assertions or propositions and you can conduct an analysis and a critique of the model with a focus on elaboration of the theory’s implications for nursing practice nursing education and nursing research.
