Teaching Experience: Vaccines in a Childcare Center GCU: NRS-427V Stephanie Stern June 28, 2015 Teaching Experience: Vaccines in a Childcare Center Education is one of the most important aspects of a nurse’s role with patients. This is especially true of the community health nurse. The area of primary prevention and health promotion is gaining special popularity as educational material for nurses as healthcare is shifting towards heavily focusing on prevention of diseases and preservation of health.

The teaching experience was a first time experience and generated a great deal of anxiety and nervousness. The anxiety was attributed to having to give a presentation to a group of adults who I had never met before and whose viewpoints about vaccinations I was not familiar with. The childcare center was very helpful and appreciative of the offered education; the center provided a projector and projection screen for me to show the power point on. Prior to the planned teaching experience, I contacted the childcare center to ascertain a best time for parent attendance and to find out if there were any potential language barriers. The childcare center was able to help me schedule a time to best fit the parent’s schedules and informed me that there were no language barriers to which they were aware. In total about 10 parents attended the teaching experience; I had the opportunity to gather some demographic information regarding the parents prior to beginning the power point. Of the parents, the ages ranged between 24-36 years old, young to middle adult, most parents had only one child with two parents having two children, 7 of the 10 parents were employed full-time and 3 of the parents were employed part-time. All of the parents in attendance identified as non-Hispanic Caucasian Americans; the childcare

Electronic Health Record (EHR) compliance is expected to achieve better clinical outcomes, improved population health outcomes, increased transparency and efficiency, empowerment of individuals, and more robust data for research on health systems (Health IT). The determination of this paper aims to evaluate the flow of information as it travels with patients as they enter the emergency room, up to and including a skilled nursing facility stay. Over the last decade an emphasis has been placed on transitioning from paper based documentation to electronic based computerized systems. The centers for Medicaid and Medicare place such high emphasis on this transition that monetary incentive including higher reimbursement rates
The Quality and Safety Education for Nurses (QSEN) is an institute dedicated to the quality and safety for patients by helping nurses gain the knowledge, skills, and attitudes (KSAs) to provide patient care (QSEN Institute, 2017). Specimen labeling errors fall under the QSEN competency of safety. The purpose of this paper is to present the current problem with specimen processing and compose a second solution to this problem. The organizations that support my project, the National Safety Patient Foundation (NPSF) and the Institute for Healthcare Improvement (IHI), will be discussed as well. Finally, an overall evaluation of the clinical practice project and preceptor experience will be presented.
The state having to repay Medicaid may mean a cut in billable services for Nebraska DD providers. In a staff meeting at Nebraska-DHHS, DD Director Courtney Miller, “the proposed plan is to allow 35 billable hours of Day Habilitation per week instead of 40. This should save money and pay what is owed to Medicaid-CMS” (Miller, personal communication July, 2nd, 2017). However on problematic billing issue with Medicaid, the Omaha World Herald article mentions, “it’s more instability to a system that’s struggling to begin with,” said State Sen. Colby Coash of Lincoln, chairman of the Legislature’s developmental disabilities oversight committee. We really can’t afford to lose any providers” (Omaha World Herald, 2014).
Childhood obesity is increasing worldwide. Experts estimate that 1 in 5 kids between the ages of 6 and 17 are overweight. That means that as they get older they will be more at risk for diabetes, high blood pressure, and heart related diseases. Things that we used to associate with older people are now affecting younger and younger children. There are many reasons for this rise in obesity and this paper will look at a few of them. My goal is to show a correlation between what children are doing and how it affects their chances of being obese. My data comes from the Centers for Disease Control (CDC) website. They sent a survey to schools in all
This observations will present an in service core curriculum re-evaluating an argument on the procedure by which an investigative permit is required and released that gives emphasis to the Fourth Amendment needs. Also, the definition of probable cause and its principles in which it is assembled will be discussed. There are two kinds of investigation that do not necessitate a warrant which will also be enclosed in this paper as well as concentrating on a small number of enquiry such as What the underlying principle is for consenting to warrantless investigation, and if these rationale are influential, and whether or not all
High-cost users (HCUs) consume 5% of healthcare services (Rais, et al, 2013). The majority of the services they tend to consume are financed by both public and private sectors. However, due to the high-cost utilization of health care services, consumers need the appropriate funding of health care services to decrease the amount of high-cost consumers. Since the funding of services is public and private mix, studies have looked at the need for adequate funding of health care services to solve the health care system problems. Therefore, this paper will look at the high-cost users of health care by looking at the high-cost expenditures on mental illness, elderly residential and long-term care, and pharmaceutical drugs. Furthermore, this paper
Christianity assumes that our human nature is fundamentally and thoroughly flawed by sin, to the point where a divine miracle of grace is needed to allow us to trust Christ as Savior. Most people in Western cultures, however, do not consider themselves to be sinners and therefore feel no need for a Savior. Comment on this in the light of the detailed accounting rules and regulations intended to prevent investors from being defrauded, and the multi-billion dollar worldwide auditing profession that is intended to add credibility to financial statements.
