Decision Tree Assignment
Play now?  Play later?
You can become a millionaire!  That’s what the junk mail said.  But then there was the fine print:
If you send in your entry before midnight tonight, then here are your chances:
0.1% that you win $1,000,000
75% that you win nothing
  Otherwise, you must PAY $1,000
But wait, there’s more!  If you don’t win the million AND you don’t have to pay on your first attempt,
then you can choose to play one more time.  If you choose to play again, then here are your chances:
2% that you win $100,000
20% that you win $500
Otherwise, you must PAY $2,000
 
What is your expected outcome for attempting this venture?  Solve this problem using
a decision tree and clearly show all calculations and the expected monetary value at each node.
Use maximization of expected value as your decision criterion.
Answer these questions:
1) Should you play at all? (5%)  If you play, what is your expected (net) monetary value? (15%)
2) If you play and don’t win at all on the first try (but don’t lose money), should you try again? (5%) Why? (10%)
3) Clearly show the decision tree (40%) and expected net monetary value at each node (25%)

 

Dissemination of Evidence-Based Practice (EBP) Information Discussion Essay
Dissemination of evidence-based practice (EBP) according to the Agency for Healthcare and Research Quality (AHRQ), is important, and they developed a tool to help do so. The dissemination plan should have several elements, six they have named:
Research findings and products—What is going to be disseminated?
End users—Who will apply it in practice?
Dissemination partners—Individuals, organizations or networks through whom you can reach end users?
Communication—How you convey the research outcomes?
ORDER A CUSTOM-WRITTEN PAPER NOW
Evaluation—How you determine what worked?
Dissemination work plan—Where you start? (Agency for Healthcare and Research Quality, 2014, para. 2).
So, who would be the end user of your proposal? End users are individuals, health care professionals, or delivery organizations that could benefit from and use your research finding or product. These end users are the ultimate target for your dissemination efforts. Specifying your target audience and their needs will provide a focus for your dissemination plan and will help you tailor your offering to their needs (AHRQ, 2014, para 4). Dissemination of Evidence-Based Practice (EBP) Information Discussion Essay
The author would use the American Academy of Pediatrics journal, Pediatrics because it is solely based on the care of Pediatrics. My proposal is based on the care of late preterm infants, and it is a journal that has advances in the care of pediatrics, and the author believes this would be the best organization to bring the proposal to.
Next, the author would present the proposal to a conference of multidisciplinary members of the hospital  specifically one that is centered around neonates because they all would have part in the dissemination of the project from lab,, neonatologist, pharmacy, radiology, occupational therapy, administration, managers and neonate nurses.  Having a multidisciplinary approach would disseminate the information much easier and everyone is on the same page with treatment. Dissemination of Evidence-Based Practice (EBP) Information Discussion Essay.

Q

Frank, a widower, had a serious stroke and is no longer capable of caring for himself. He has three sons, all of whom live in different states. Because they are unable to care for Frank in their homes, his sons have placed him in a nursing home equipped to provide medical and nursing care. Total nursing home expenses amount to $36,000 per year. Of this amount, $15,000 is directly attributable to medical and nursing care. Frank’s Social Security benefits are used to pay $10,000 of the nursing home charges. He has no other income. His sons plan to split the remaining medical expenses equally.

a. What portion of the nursing home charges is potentially deductible as a medical expense?

b. Can you provide Frank’s sons with a tax planning idea for maximizing the deduction for his medical expenses?

Question Description

WEEK 8 ASSIGNMENT. NURS 6521, Advanced pharmacology

APA FORMAT PLEASE

Write a 2– page paper that addresses the following:

  • Describe the categories of antimicrobial agents.
  • Describe differences between viral and bacterial infections.
  • Explain why proper identification of viral and bacterial infections is key to selecting the proper antimicrobial agent.

Assignment: 
Antimicrobial Agents

Antimicrobial agents are essential components in the treatment of various bacterial infections as they help to kill or prevent the growth of microbes such as bacteria, fungi, and protozoans. Prior to the discovery of antimicrobial agents, treatment options for patients with bacterial infections were limited. For many patients, treatment often resulted in the amputation of limbs or even death. Today, treatment options for bacterial infections typically have a more positive prognosis. Due to the various types of infections presented in patients, it is essential to be able to identify the underlying cause of the infection—whether bacterial or viral—before recommending drug treatments. This will help you identify whether or not an antimicrobial agent would be appropriate and which specific agent would target the infection. In this Assignment, you consider the appropriate use of antimicrobial agents for infections.

To prepare:
  • Review this week’s media presentation on principles of antimicrobial therapy, as well as Chapter 8 of the Arcangelo and Peterson text.
  • Consider the categories of antimicrobial agents.
  • Think about differences between viral and bacterial infections.
  • Reflect on why proper identification of the infection is key to selecting the proper antimicrobial agent.

Write a 2– page paper that addresses the following:

  • Describe the categories of antimicrobial agents.
  • Describe differences between viral and bacterial infections.
  • Explain why proper identification of viral and bacterial infections is key to selecting the proper antimicrobial agent.

Reminder: The School of Nursing requires that all papers submitted include a title page, introduction, summary, and references. The Sample Paper provided at the Walden Writing Center provides an example of those required elements (available at http://writingcenter.waldenu.edu/57.htm). All papers submitted must use this formatting.

Q2

Evaluate two (2) advantages for a health care administrator to engage the services of a consultant to improve the functions of HR. 1.      Consultants have specialized knowledge, technical expertise and experience. Their expertise qualifies them to address specific issues or problems. Experts can provide focused advice, conduct training and create a strategic plan (Fallon & McConnell, 2014). 2.      Consultants can provide a less bias point of view (Fallon & McConnell, 2014). Sometimes when problems arise and issues are pressing, it is hard to assess possible solutions when you are too close to the situation. Also, because the consultant has no stock or interest in the organization, they are able to be brutally honest concerning staff and processes.
