Long-Term Care for All

Case
Long-Term Care for All
The newly elected governor of a small state in which the elderly comprise 26% of the total population—twice the national average—is eager to fulfill his campaign promise. He had run for office on the slogan “long-term care for all.” The elderly in the state had overwhelmingly voted for him. Now in office about 9 months, his advisors tell him that providing long-term care services for all citizens in the state will be next to impossible because of high demand for the services. The governor, however, remains undeterred. The cornerstone of his proposed policy includes three things: (1) Develop a state-sponsored long-term care insurance plan. The insurance premiums will be income based, and will cost at least 15% less than a midlevel private long-term insurance plan being sold in the state. (2) Make it mandatory for all citizens, old and young, to purchase LTC insurance, either from the state or from a private insurance company. (3) Place restrictions on the use of nursing home and assisted living services in favor of community-based services.
Questions
1.  Give specific reasons why the governor’s policy may not work, pointing out specific problems that would likely arise.
2.  Will the policy work in a large state, everything else being equal? Give reasons.

Pathophysiological Mechanism

Fred, a fit and healthy 44-year-old, was working outside one warm summer afternoon. When he returned home by the end of the day, his lower back felt sore and he felt nauseated. His wife made him dinner, but he was not hungry and chose to go to bed instead. Fred’s symptoms progressed, and soon he was rolling on the bed with excruciating pain. He said his back hurt as well as his stomach and groin area. The pain would ease off only to return a short while later, and when it did, Fred would begin to sweat and run to the bathroom to vomit. His wife became concerned and she helped him into the car and rushed him to the hospital.

Please answer the following questions and submit your assignment via Blackboard by the due date.

1. At the hospital, an abdominal radiograph showed the presence of renal calculi in Fred’s right ureter (urolithiasis).  What is the pathophysiological mechanism of stone formation in the kidney? 

2. In the hospital, Fred’s urine is being strained for the presence of stones that he may have passed. What is the importance of this action?

3. What are the 4 primary types of renal calculi and what are the risk factors for each of these types of renal calculi? 

4. Hydronephrosis can be a complication of renal calculi. Why is hydronephrosis such a serious complication? 

5. View the following youtube video entitled “How do kidney stones form?”   https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kd1OgaoHkNk&ebc=ANyPxKpOSV5R2ZhGO16_RyRrOJqxvxX0LqasixjcubWhDn5frqXcvCZuFFZQG3nvVpZSTFL0HxuUpkycrKY94szkE_ucwYOCQg
