Unit:  A Discussion on Homeland Security Future and Evolving Challenges
Primary Task Response: Within the Discussion Board area, write 400 words that respond to the following questions with your thoughts, ideas, and comments. This will be the foundation for future discussions by your classmates. Be substantive and clear, and use examples to reinforce your ideas.
This Discussion Board will examine developing and future threats and challenges that will affect the homeland security (HLS) enterprise (global Jihad, megadisasters, cyber, climate change, arctic policy, piracy, small vessel security, nodes of radicalization, pandemic, immigration, maritime, and insider threat) and look at developing a vision for sustaining the efforts into the future. The intersection of globalization and technology in the 21st century created an uncertain environment in the post-Cold War era. The homeland security enterprise was not borne out of thoughtful strategic introspection after the end of the Cold War, but rather it was more of a reaction forced upon the nation by the 9/11 attacks. Even then, the focus remained on a single issue, terrorism, until the devastation caused by Hurricane Katrina in 2005 opened the aperture of the nascent enterprise to a wider view: the realization that there are multiple threats from man and nature that can bring the nation to its knees. You will be expected to use prior course work research to provide insightful proposals for adapting the Enterprise to future challenges and to develop a vision for the future. Discuss the following:

  • How does terrorism stack against other manmade and natural threats? Should the United States continue its approach to counterterrorism?
  • How would you optimize the homeland security enterprise for the challenges and threats of the 21st century?
  • What should be the essential elements of a homeland security enterprise vision?

LASA 1—Gregory’s Treatment
People that abuse substances have individual reasons for what first drove them to begin using these substances in the first place. Some clients started using them through experimentation, peer pressure, or curiosity. However, many users began using substances as a way of dealing with other issues in their lives, such as depression, anxiety, weight loss, or other physical or mental disorders. In still other cases, mental and physical disorders may result in response to chronic substance abuse. In these cases, it is important to determine what the co-occurring disorder is, as well as the substance abuse problem, in order to determine the best course of treatment.
Read the following scenario and then respond to the questions that follow:
You are a substance abuse counselor. Gregory, your new client, has come to you for help with his alcohol use problem. Gregory is married with three children and works as a sales representative for a large corporation in the city. In your first meeting with Gregory, you discover that his drinking began as a way to alleviate the anxiety he felt in social situations. Over time, Gregory began using alcohol more often. He found that every time he used alcohol, his anxiety lifted and he was able to be more at ease during work, out with colleagues, and at other such public events. Over time, Gregory realized he needed more alcohol than before to get the same anxiety relieving effects.
Two weeks ago, one of Gregory’s coworkers became suspicious that Gregory was drinking at work. That same day, while Gregory was driving home from work, he was pulled over by the police. He passed the field sobriety test and the officer let him off with a warning. These two events served as a wake-up call for Gregory as he realized his alcohol use may be beyond his control.
Gregory has made an appointment with you because he sincerely wants to curtail his alcohol use.
To help Gregory achieve his goals, write a paper that analyzes the components of his scenario. In your paper, ensure that you include the following information:

  • Summarize the history and usefulness of the four major contemporary treatment modalities (crisis intervention, individual counseling, group counseling, and family counseling).
  • Evaluate Gregory’s dual diagnosis (also referred to as “co-occurring disorders”) and the implications for counseling. Keep the following questions in mind:
    • Describe the meaning of dual diagnosis and how it impacts counseling.
    • Classify Gregory’s primary and secondary diagnoses.
    • Analyze the implications in treating a secondary diagnosis.
  • Evaluate the limitations for an alcohol and drug counselor when treating diagnoses other than those related to substance abuse. Describe the circumstances where the four treatment modalities might be useful in a dual diagnosis.
  • Recommend at least one treatment modality for Gregory and explain your recommendation using at least two scholarly references.

Write a 4–5-page paper in Word format. Use scholarly resources, including your textbook, to support your ideas. Your paper must be in Word format and include a title page and reference page in addition to the 4-5-pages of content. Apply APA 6th edition standards to the format of the paper, and the citation of sources. PLEASE BE DETAILED ORIENTED.

In order to effectively manage their own health, individuals need to have competencies in two areas—basic literacy and basic health literacy. What is the difference? Basic literacy refers to the ability to read, even simple language. Health literacy is defined as, “the degree to which individuals have the capacity to obtain, process, and understand basic health information and services needed to make appropriate health decisions” (National Coalition for Literacy, 2009). Unfortunately, according to a Department of Education report on health literacy, only 12% of adults aged 16 and older are considered to have a proficient level of health literacy (U.S. Department of Education, 2006). Acquiring health literacy skills has become more complicated with the explosion of online health information, some credible and some misleading.

In this Discussion, you focus on how to help individuals find credible information on the Internet and develop strategies nurses can use to increase the health literacy of their patients.

To prepare:

  • Think about the nurse’s role in improving the health literacy of patients.
  • Consider the many ways patients access health information, including blogs, social media, patient portals, websites, etc.
  • Reflect on experiences you have had with patients who self-diagnose using online medical sources.
  • Using the Internet, the Walden Library, or other trustworthy sources, identify a resource that you could introduce to patients to help them evaluate the credibility of health information found online.
  • What are some strategies you could employ to improve the health literacy of patients?

Read the attached article and analyze the identified benefits and consequences of applying the Theory of Integral Nursing to clinical practice. Discuss your analysis and identify the strengths and weaknesses of the scholarly article. Specify 2 MSN Essentials which most relate to the application of the Theory of Integral Nursing in clinical practice.

**Under the Class Resources tab, students will find the MSN Essentials which help to guide and shape graduate nursing education. Select 2 of these essentials that most closely reflect the concepts of the theory of integral nursing as instructed above.**
