1 Reaching Out for a Solution Julio Martinez South University NSG 4068—Trends in Healthcare Policy Professor Wise Mary December 21, 2023

2 Reaching Out for a Solution A scenario may be examined to identify the key actors and people who might have an influence on a policy goal using political analysis. The initial stage in political analysis is to identify and characterize the existing issue. This is followed by the implementation of initiatives aimed at altering the chosen policy. A solution can only be reached by using many power sources to push a cause via the legislative process. The case study's issues seem to stem from a lack of preparation on the side of individuals in charge of offering emergency aid (Selg & Ventsel, 2020) . That means that prior to the school-sponsored sporting event involving kids, all of the emergency and first aid supplies would have been available to the instructors or individuals overseeing events during the games. What is the issue? A spectator had a sudden cardiac arrest, but the automated external defibrillator (AED) was stashed away in the custodial closet and was not immediately accessible. This is the immediate concern. This is problematic because, in an emergency, people should be able to use AEDs in publicly accessible public areas to prevent depriving those who need them of them for a lengthy period of time. An AED will walk someone through the steps required to save lives even if they lack medical knowledge. A considerable improvement in the likelihood of surviving a cardiac arrest occurs when the time interval between collapse and shock is less than three minutes (Lampert, 2020) . Because of this, many individuals may die from a heart attack if the AED cannot be quickly recovered. Is it my issue, and can I solve it?

3 In addition to creating emergency care plans for students with special needs, school nurses also complete individualized healthcare plans, create school health policies, provide preventive services, administer vaccinations, ensure that records are accurate, complete exams, treat illnesses and injuries, and report infectious diseases. In order to enhance school health and offer appropriate interventions, the nurse must be instrumental in identifying a practical solution to this issue. Since the AED has already been acquired, the most costly aspect of this endeavor deciding where to place it should not be too tough (Kovic et al., 2019) . That will resolve the matter. Is this the real issue or merely a symptom of a larger one? This is a stand-alone problem, not a part of a larger problem, because lives are at stake in its resolution. Does it need an immediate solution, or can it wait? The American Heart Association estimates that in 90% of instances outside of hospitals in the United States, fatal cardiac arrests occur. Considering the startlingly high known fatality rates, we need to find a solution quickly to guarantee the safety of the students, instructors, and guests. Is it likely to go away by itself? Should prompt action be neglected, there's a chance that a comparable circumstance may recur and have more dire consequences. You may inspire other local
