All THREE of the research study articles MUST BE written by nurses and published in a peer-reviewed nursing journal. At least ONE of the three nursing research studies must address nursing practice in another country. Part A: The first part of the paper should clearly define the global health problem, and discuss why it is important for nursing. Discuss how this problem is viewed in the United States and how it is viewed in another country. For example, if the focus is adult hypertension, discuss guidelines for defining hypertension in the US and in another country. ( we are doing mental health for trauma survivors) Use the heading Part A for this section. Part B: The second part of the paper will include an Appraisal synopsis for each of the research studies that you have selected for your topic. This part of the paper will discuss what is known about the health problem in the United States population and at least one other country of the world. For example, in regards to hypertension, you may choose four research study articles done by nurse researchers that looked at interventions to improve medication compliance, or the effect of diet and exercise in reducing elevated blood pressure. Use the heading Part B for this section. Then use the subheading Study #1-Nursing research study in the USA. Appraise and critique the article following the components of synopsis shown below. Begin by providing the article citation, then provide a synopsis of the article by answering the questions in Components of Synopsis.

Case #1:
You are the accounting manager of SKI Co., a private company located in Quebec. SKI follows ASPE and has an August 31styear end.  SKI distributes products for the downhill ski and snowboarding markets. SKI’s bank requires audited financial statements and requires it to maintain a debt to equity ratio lower than 0.5.
The company was purchased a couple of years ago and the owner has hired a research team to develop some of its own products.  The team is excited about a new product, SKIdat. It is a smart device that attaches to a skier helmet and would provide data on the skier’s speed, route, altitude, provide route suggestions, as well as take video and photos.
SKI expensed $200,000 in the 2019 fiscal year in relation to the SKIdat product research.   During the current 2020 fiscal year, the research team incurred a further $850,000 to get a fully functioning prototype completed in March.  Market research was completed that showed a solid market for the product. Since March, a further $400,000 has been spent on engineering costs to fine-tune the product to make it manufacture ready. SKI is currently negotiating with the bank for a loan to purchase equipment to be able to manufacture the product for sale.
It is now late August and you are preparing for the upcomingAugust 31st 2020 year end. You have been asked to prepare a memo to the CFO on your recommendations for the accounting for the SKIdat expenditures.
Required
Prepare the memo to the CFO.

You are a senior manager for the highly successful regional CPA firm of Fine, Dee, Evah, Dense, LLP(Fine). Since its inception nearly 30 years ago, Fine’s audit practice has exclusively consisted of auditing private and not-for-profit organizations. Recently, the partners have been considering an opportunity to audit a publically-traded company for the company your team has selected.
The primary reason Fine has not heretofore ventured into auditing publically-traded companies is because of the potential risk and legal liability associated with auditing public companies. However, Fine has been a bit stagnant, business-wise, for the past few years, and some of the older and more risk-adverse partners are beginning to retire. Consequently, the lure of the often-lucrative and prestigious opportunity to audit a public company has become too hard to resist, so the partners have decided to pursue the chance to audit this company.
On a beautiful early-September morning you are called into the senior partner’s office and told you and your team have been selected to lead the first-ever effort to audit a publically-traded company for Fine. You are honored, but also know auditing a public company is a bit more tricky and complicated than auditing private and not-for-profit organizations. Fortunately, the senior partner had considerable experience early in his career with another firm in auditing public companies and told you he would be with you all the way.  Relieved, you asked him what he wanted you to do. He tossed you the most recent Form 10-K of the company you selectedand gave you the following assignments:
Review and discussthe Form 10-K for the company you have selected.
Createa report that will have 4 sections.
I only need section 4 completed. The company I choose is American Express
Section 4, Audit Tests
The reading in Chapter 13 (p. 402-407) describes five types of audit tests of financial statements:
(1)  Risk Assessment Procedures
(2)  Test of Controls
(3)  Substantive Tests of Transactions
(4)  Analytical Procedures
(5)  Tests of Details of Balances.
In 350- to 700-words:
Identifywhich tests are best suited for the company you selected and why.
Explainwhy some tests are not suitable.

Write a 4–6 page impact report to senior leadership that identifies a nursing-related challenge, analyzes how it affects the organization from a nursing perspective, and details the new position.

Each organization has a unique structure that impacts the behavior of the organization. In health care organizations, this impact is on the ability of the organization to deliver quality patient care. Nursing is an essential component of any health care organization, and nursing leaders must understand the role of nursing and nursing leadership within the total organization. Understanding basic organizational structure, mission, vision, philosophy, and values will better prepare nurse leaders to improve quality and patient outcomes.

There is a great influence on public health on US health care systems. The United States stands out from many other countries in not offering universal health insurance coverage. In 2010, 50 million people (16 percent of the U.S. population) were uninsured. Access to health care services, particularly in rural and frontier communities or disadvantaged urban centers, is often limited. The United States has a relatively weak foundation for primary care and a shortage of family physicians. One explanation for the health disadvantage of the United States relative to other high-income countries might be deficiencies in health services. Although the United States is renowned for its leadership in biomedical research, its cutting-edge medical technology, and its hospitals and specialists, problems with ensuring Americans’ access to the system and providing quality care have been a long-standing concern of policymakers and the public.
In the United States, health care delivery (and financing) is deeply fragmented across thousands of health systems and payers and government (e.g., Medicare and Medicaid) and the private sector, creating inefficiencies and coordination problems that may be less prevalent in countries with more centralized national health systems. As a result, U.S. patients do not always receive the care they need (and sometimes receive the care they do not need): one study estimated that Americans receive only 50 percent of recommended health care services.
It is clear that health systems—both those responsible for public health services and medical care—are instrumental in both the prevention of disease and in optimizing outcomes when illness occurs. The importance of population-based services is marked by the signature accomplishments of public health, such as the control of vaccine-preventable diseases, lead abatement, tobacco control, motor vehicle occupant restraints, and water fluoridation to prevent dental caries.
There is mounting evidence that chronic illness care requires better integration of professions and institutions to help patients manage their conditions, and that health care systems built on an acute, episodic model of care are ill-equipped to meet the longer-term and fluctuating needs of people with chronic illnesses. Wagner and colleagues (1996) were among the first to document the importance of coordination in managing chronic illnesses. Many countries differ from the United States because public health and medical care services are embedded in a centralized health system and social and health care policies are more integrated than they are in the United State.
