 The unapproved use of approved drugs, also called off-label use, with children is quite common. This is because pediatric dosage guidelines are typically unavailable since very few drugs have been specifically researched and tested with children.
When treating children, prescribers often adjust dosages approved for adults to accommodate a child’s weight. However, children are not just “smaller” adults. Adults and children process and respond to drugs differently in their absorption, distribution, metabolism, and excretion.
Children even respond differently during stages from infancy to adolescence. This poses potential safety concerns when prescribing drugs to pediatric patients. As an advanced practice nurse, you have to be aware of the safety implications of the off-label use of drugs with this patient group.

To Prepare
  • Reflect on the types of drugs used to treat pediatric patients with mood disorders.
  • Reflect on situations in which children should be prescribed drugs for off-label use.
  • Think about strategies to make the off-label use and dosage of drugs safer for children from infancy to adolescence. Consider specific off-label drugs that you think require extra care and attention when used in pediatrics.

Write a 1-page narrative in APA format that addresses the following:

  • Explain the circumstances under which children should be prescribed drugs for off-label use. Be specific and provide examples.
  • Describe strategies to make the off-label use and dosage of drugs safer for children from infancy to adolescence. Include descriptions and names of off-label drugs that require extra care and attention when used in pediatrics.

Create a Code of Ethics Plan

Previous Next 

Instructions

Imagine that you were hired as the police chief for the Small Town police department. Small Town is a community of about 2,000 citizens in a rural area. Your police department consists of 20 sworn officers and 10 civilian support personnel.
Talking to the citizens and assessing the citizen complaints and internal affairs files, you discover several ethical violations.

  • While on duty, police officers attend to personal business such as shopping and dropping and picking up kids from school, resulting in longer response times to 911 calls.
  • During lunchtime, patrol vehicles are parked at the same restaurant because the owner provides free lunches to police.
  • An anonymous caller reported that Officer Frank racially profiles all minorities driving on Main Street on Friday nights. He stops only vehicles driven by Hispanics and African Americans, and then searches their vehicles without probable cause.
  • Officers can work additional security details at the local high school football games. You examine the shift schedule and notice that Officers Hall and Jones signed up and are being paid for the detail at the high school football game, while also being paid for their regular patrol shift, thus double dipping on pay.
  • You learn that the two narcotics officers are taking bribes from the local drug dealer to avoid patrolling the area when the drug deals are being made.

Using your critical thinking and knowledge from this course, you present solutions to solve these problems and to transform the agency into an ethical law enforcement agency.
The assignment is three-fold:

  1. PowerPoint Presentation
  • Create a Code of Ethics for all employees, sworn officers, and civilian personnel. Be sure to use the knowledge from the course, including all aspects of the acceptable ethical behavior of law enforcement officers. Consider the ethics system and ethical theories that you discussed in Week 1.
  1. Video
  • Create a short video that introduces your code of ethics. The video should be about 3 minutes in length and contain the key concepts of your code of ethics. You may use technology to create and upload your video.
  1. Action Plan
  • Design a 10 to 12-page action plan to implement the Code of Ethics. These elements are required for the action plan for the code of ethics:
    • Ensure all personnel is aware of the Code of Ethics and the consequences of violations.
    • Incorporate enforcement methods for violations of the Code of Ethics.
    • Create a breach of violation of the code of ethics letter. Choose one of the unethical behaviors listed in the scenario as an example.
    • Improve ethics training provided to the officers. Provide two options for ethics training, and then explain why you chose that type of training.
    • Generate an assessment to measure the officer’s ethical behavior in the future.

Length: 15 pages excluding the reference page
References: Include a minimum of twenty scholarly resources.
Your essay should demonstrate thoughtful consideration of the ideas and concepts that are presented in the course and provide new thoughts and insights relating directly to this topic. Your response should reflect graduate-level writing and APA standards

Management homework help

1. Describe the entrepreneurial journey of EcoSync (1500 words).
In this account of EcoSync’s entrepreneurial journey, you need to describe various stages that the firm has gone through as it evolved into what it is today. Use this framing to include analysis on product development, building the expert team, obtaining investment funding and other aspects that appear critical to the EcoSync story. Your analysis should use appropriate theory from recognised academic sources to help underpin your discussion.
Structure: ensure you take a developmental and historical perspective that identifies discrete stages running from initial idea(s) up to and including where EcoSync sits in the market today.
Sources: use various existing web sources in addition to resources drawn from the lecture programme to gather case study material on EcoSync.
2. Draw up a business model for EcoSync containing a new value proposition for the firm’s products and services through which it can sustain and grow its business (1500 words).
This assignment element is a ‘real-world’ problem. This means that ideas developed by students for this assignment have the potential of being applied directly in the market place. Additionally, the learning involved will be attractive to prospective employers. A ‘value proposition’ refers to some innovative quality or feature in a product or service that adds value in some manner to make a company or product attractive to customers.
EcoSync are looking for fresh thinking and want to go back to basics to understand their new target audience, to know what the ‘pain points’ and triggerfactors are for this audience, and to find out how to adjust their value proposition, their go-to-market strategy including branding, marketing, and customer acquisition strategy in order to gain traction in the marketplace. Use the Business Model Canvas template to help you undertake this task.
Some basic questions that the strategy can answer include:
➢ What is the new value proposition and what is innovative about it?
➢ How unique is this proposition? Are there similar offerings available on the market?
➢ Who is the target customer?
➢ What customer need does the product/service meet?
➢ Why is the product/service better than comparable alternatives?
➢ What are the competitive advantages of the new value proposition? Why cannot a competitor simply copy them?➢ How does the product/service reach the customer?
➢ What strategy should the firm follow to acquire new customers?
➢ What is the profile of the potential customer?

Immigration and the UK
What impact did immigration have on Brexit and how would Brexit impact UK immigration laws.
 
Students will design a case study research analyzing the foreign, security, and defense policies of individual European states or groups of states (EU and non-EU countries) and applying the theoretical framework to one or more cases. Papers should be eight – ten (8-10) double spaced pages. Regardless of the topic selected, the student should deal with it analytically, not merely descriptively. This means that the paper should address a specific question and develop and support an argument. It should draw upon the relevant theoretical literature. Students may employ whatever system of formatting that works best for them so long as it remains consistent throughout the paper.
The number of sources required for research papers is a function of paper length: 8-page papers should have a minimum of 8 sources, 10-page papers should have a minimum of 10 sources. All sources listed on the REFERENCES page must be cited in the text.

Communication, which is a two way process of sending and receiving messages is a fundamental skill required for nursing

Communication, which is a two way process of sending and receiving messages is a fundamental skill required for nursing. Most of the time, nurses send messages with the words they use, but there is another way nurses can convey messages and that is through body language and facial expressions. This is called meta-communication. If the non-verbal message doesn’t match the verbal, the message will be confusing.

What if your patient said this “I’m fine”, but looked sad?

 

Similarly, what if the nurse appears preoccupied or busy when assessing a client? Is the client likely to think the nurse is interested or caring? Nurse’s may appear uncaring if they change the subject, appear defense, moralize or appear judgmental, are inattentive, and even if they use too much medical jargon (Potter et al, 2017). Remember when communicating with clients that both communication and caring are considered integrated processes and center to all nursing care and as your lesson states can even considered therapeutic if used purposefully (Chamberlain, 2019).

According to Chamberlain Care, person centered communication is not limited to just the client, but also includes family and other healthcare colleagues. Differentiating between therapeutic and non-therapeutic communication responses is one of the most important skills a nurse can develop.

QUESTION:  Chamberlain (College of Nursing) Care emphasizes person-centered communication. Provide an example of using person-centered care in communicating to another who disagrees with you.
