Scenario 1 – Post Partum Haemorrhage

Scenario
Question 1
Question 2
Question 3
A hospital is an acute care short-term stay and emergency medical center that also includes medical
departments such as, surgical, obstetrics, infectious disease, radiology, laboratory and mental health.
How would you determine which skills, certifications, and licensur
e would be effective in retaining the
current nurses?
Is there a direct correlation between additional skills and retention and motivation of the nurses?
How would you determine who would be provided the skills development? Are all skills for all nurses
feasible?
You are the administrator of a medium-sized hospital. The Director of Human Resources has been
summoned to an executive team meeting in an effort determine why an unusual number of nursing staff
leaving for other employment. During the discussions, the Director of Nursing provides her thoughts re
–
garding why the nurses may be less productive and why some are departing. She states that the primary
reason is salaries/benefits. A charge nurse thinks the reason might be working conditions, especially
involving patient load in the various nursing units. Overall morale is low
, which is adversely affecting pro
–
ductivity. This has also resulted in some patient quality outcomes discovered by the Continuous Quality
Improvement team.
During the discussion, the Senior Director of Admissions shares some experiences she had with a for
–
mer employer–that the nursing staff tended to remain longer with the employer based on good working
conditions, specifically in the area of learning new skills, obtaining additional certifications, licensure, and
cross-training for other areas not usually assigned. She feels that these measures result in higher reten
–
tion and patient quality outcomes.
After the meeting, you meet with the Director of Nursing and Human Resources Director, who is also in
charge of all training and development for the hospital. As the administrator
, you consider developing
a small group to explore the feasibility of providing more skills development and training to your current
nursing staff. Before implementing this directive, consider the following:
Question 4
Question 5
How would you determine if additional compensation would be required for trained nurses?
How would you quantitatively determine the cost of this initiative?
explore how a theorist explicates his or her philosophy and thoughts behind a theoretical field
UncategorizedQuestion Description
The purpose of this Assignment is to explore how a theorist explicates his or her philosophy and thoughts behind a theoretical field. As in other fields of study, nursing has a plethora of theorists and theories. These theorists have developed their paradigm over time enriching it with research and dialogue with other theorists.
Directions
You are going to explore how a theorist of your choice created his or her theory. Did it develop as an acorn becoming a mighty oak over the decades? Did it arrive as a burst of light like the big bang as some believe created our universe? Was it developed from a blueprint like a spaceship where thousands of scholars worked together to create a rocket to the moon? In point of fact, how is a theory developed? This is what we are exploring.
You will pick a theorist who interests you, it does not have to be a nurse theorist. You may also choose from other disciplines such as: behavioral, leadership, business, education, technology.
You will become the theorist immersing yourself in the writings from the earliest mentioned to the most current.
As you read, look at how you (taking on the persona of the theorist) developed the theory.
In the first stage, theorizing occurs. This is where you, as the theorist, identify the concepts of what nursing is and is not. Perhaps you questioned what concepts were guiding those in nursing practice and then started to question your role. You started asking yourself, “Where am I in nursing, and where the profession is going? Is there some overarching concept that guides the professional in his or her practice?” This is where you recognize that a theory is needed.
In the second stage, syntax is developed. This is where you will define the terms. Look for changing definitions of terms. Consider, for example, Jean Watson. She starts by defining the word “caring.” Within the last ten years she has refined her terminology changing the term caring to caritas. This demonstrates a growth and maturation from decades of research she and other scholars did to produce the theory of caring.
The third stage is theory testing. Defined as the phenomena behind the theory that are exposed through research. The definitions of terms are refined. The theorists and other researchers consider whether this theory helps answer questions that arise in practice. This is where your theory is used in by a widening group of researchers. For example, graduate nursing students request the tool you developed while testing your theory.
The fourth and last stage is evaluation. This is where philosophical debate occurs as the concepts are applied through evidenced based practice in the act of providing nursing care.
Assignment Details
For this Assignment, you are going to write an article for a nursing journal explaining how you developed your theory through the four stages (theorizing, syntax, theory testing, and evaluation). Your paper must be 3 to 5 pages, not including the title and reference pages.

UncategorizedIn addition, please provide two control panels (use the Contract spreadsheet, not the huge calculation one) to show two different flow sets. The first set of flows and reservoir operations should give you the BEST situation for your group. The second control panel should give the LEAST ACCEPTABLE situation for your group. That is, this deal is what you would still accept, but only barely… It is like buying a used car.. you would LOVE to pay Zero or 5 bucks (the Best situation…), but… if push came to shove you would pay up to $3500 bucks (Least Acceptable level).
My intent is that you know what flow and reservoir conditions will give you (and your constituency) the best results and minimally good results. Thus, it should help you to identify good deals and alterations that benefit your group. Because when you will be negotiating with 9 other people (with some people on your side and others diametrically opposed to you), you need to know what is a good deal for you and what is not. Else, you will be taken for a ride and your negotiating grade (Phase II) will suffer significantly.
Please attached a Word or PDF file, along with the control panels of your BEST and LEAST ACCEPTABLE DEALS. Also please give me some sentences on why each of the two deals are good for your negotiating position…. Remember to alter BOTH the reservoir management settings (the level and release) as well as the consumptive demands.
