 Details:

The practice of health care providers at all levels brings you into contact with people from a variety of faiths. This calls for knowledge and acceptance of a diversity of faith expressions.

The purpose of this paper is to complete a comparative ethical analysis of George’s situation and decision from the perspective of two worldviews or religions: Christianity and a second religion of your choosing. For the second faith, choose a faith that is unfamiliar to you. Examples of faiths to choose from include Sikh, Baha’i, Buddhism, Shintoism, etc.

In your comparative analysis, address all of the worldview questions in detail for Christianity and your selected faith. Refer to Chapter 2 of Called to Care for the list of questions. Once you have outlined the worldview of each religion, begin your ethical analysis from each perspective.

In a minimum of 1,500-2,000 words, provide an ethical analysis based upon the different belief systems, reinforcing major themes with insights gained from your research, and answering the following questions based on the research:

1. How would each religion interpret the nature of George’s malady and suffering? Is there a “why” to his disease and suffering? (i.e., is there a reason for why George is ill, beyond the reality of physical malady?)
2. In George’s analysis of his own life, how would each religion think about the value of his life as a person, and value of his life with ALS?
3. What sorts of values and considerations would each religion focus on in deliberating about whether or not George should opt for euthanasia?
4. Given the above, what options would be morally justified under each religion for George and why?
5. Finally, present and defend your own view.

Support your position by referencing at least three academic resources (preferably from the GCU Library) in addition to the course readings, lectures, the Bible, and the textbooks for each religion. Each religion must have a primary source included. A total of six references are required according to the specifications listed above. Incorporate the research into your writing in an appropriate, scholarly manner.

Prepare this assignment according to the guidelines found in the APA Style Guide, located in the Student Success Center. An abstract is required.

2- Details:

In preparation for your clinical practice experience, you will need to access the “Field Experience Site Information Form” from your student portal. You will be submitting your chosen mentor, site information, and information regarding your chosen experience through this form in order to start the process of being cleared for your practice experience. You can find information on the mentor and site requirements by viewing the “Guidelines for Undergraduate Field Experiences” located in the College of Nursing and Health Care Professions resource page in the Student Success Center.

For this assignment, complete the required “Field Experience Site Information Form” via your student portal. Once you log into your Student Portal, go to My Apps/Edocs/Click here to access all documents pending an e-signature. If you have any questions concerning this form, or if you are unable to view it in your student portal, contact your assigned field experience counselor for assistance.

NOTE: Completion of the form works best on a non-mobile device. Please make sure your pop-up blockers are turned off.

Once you have completed the site information form, a confirmation e-mail with your completed document attached will be sent to your my.gcu.edu email. Upload and submit your completed form in this assignment.

For further instructions, refer to “GCU Technical Support – Field Experience Site Information Form” in your topic study materials.

  ORIGINAL WORK AND PROPER ENGLISH PLEASE. SOURCES WITHIN 5 YEARS

Directions:

Using the “Telehealth Template,” write a 750-1,000 word paper on a telehealth technology that can be used in your current practice. The paper will include a precis, mind map (provided as the Appendix), discussion of the mind map, and conclusion, according to the following:

Introduction

Provide an introduction that is succinct and includes a thesis or main idea. The essence of the paper should be contained within the thesis, and the thesis statement should make the purpose of the paper clear. You may also use the introduction to provide an overview of the organization of the paper and establish the purpose for each section.

Precis

Donald Davidson, in his book, American Composition and Rhetoric, discusses the precis as follows:

“A precis is not an outline, but a summary or digest. It is useful as an exercise in grasping the essential ideas of an already completed composition and instating these ideas in concentrated form. The precis shears away all elaborations of the thought and gives only what is left, in such a way as to make the summary a complete composition. It does not, therefore, skeletonize the original composition so much as it reduces its scale. Many of the articles in the Reader’s Digest are only precis, so skillfully done that the average reader does not know that he is reading a summary. Since the precis says a great deal within a brief space, it is of great service in taking notes on library assignments and general reading.”

The precis should be an organization of ideas (including logical sequencing of points), contain clear and meaningful expression, and use language suitable to the situation. Your precis section should only cite the article you are reviewing. When finished, the precis section should summarize a single scholarly article on the topic of telehealth and should be four statements long:

1. A statement of what was studied (i.e., argued, discussed, deliberated).

2. A statement of focus of the current scholarly article selected (i.e., how it was organized and completed).

3. A statement of what information was identified or learned from the scholarly article.

4. A statement of why the information in the article is important to your field of study.

Mind Map

Brainstorm to generate ideas about how the identified telehealth technology can be used in your current practice using a mind map. Include the final mind map as the Appendix at the end of the paper.

Create your mind map according to the following:

1. Take a sheet of paper and write an identifiable main idea in the center of the page, using only one to three words. (You may also achieve this via an electronic sheet of paper.)

2. Draw a branch off your main idea. On the branch, write or draw a main topic related to your main idea.

3. Continue to branch off from your main idea with main topics as needed.

4. From your main topics, branch off with subtopics.

5. From your subtopics, branch off with supporting details (write or draw). Continue to add more details. You are free to add more topics, subtopics, or any other items.

6. When you stand back and survey your work, you should see a sort of map: hence the name for this activity. At this point, you can start to form conclusions about how to approach a potential area of practice change. At the end of the day, what you do with the particular map, cluster set, or web that you have produced depends on what you need.

7. If you create your mind map on physical paper, you may scan it in as an image and insert the image into your document. If you create the mind map electronically, you may either convert the electronic map to an image or use the snipping tool. Usually you can find this tool by searching in the start menu.

Mind Map Discussion

In this section, discuss the mind map based on the scholarly article reviewed in the precis. In your discussion of the mind map:

1. Include a critical evaluation of ideas and connections related to the topics and subtopics, as well as how this information could be used in practice.

2. Include support from two additional scholarly sources (i.e., primary sources published within the last 5 years).

3. Provide citations in text for all sources used and accompanying references in the References section. In addition, refer to the mind map in the appendix and cite it properly in text.

Conclusion

In the conclusion, provide a summary of ideas and support the main claim of the paper. Be sure to summarize key points rather than restating the material.
