How Would You Handle This Petition?
Betty Smith, a unit clerk, has come to see you, the nurse-manager of the medical unit, to complain of flagrant discriminatory practices against female employees of University General Hospital. She alleges that women are denied promotional and training opportunities comparable to those made available to men. She shows you a petition with 35 signatures supporting her allegations. Ms. Smith has threaten to forward this petition to the administrator of the hospital, the press, and the Department of Labor unless corrective action is taken at once. Being a woman yourself, you have some sympathy for Ms. Smith’s complaint. However, you believe overall that employees at University General are treated fairly regardless of their sex.
Ms. Smith, a fairly good employee, has worked on your unit for 4 years. However, she has been creating problems lately. She has been reprimanded for taking to much time for coffee breaks. Personnel evaluations that recommend pay raises and promotions are due next week.
Instructions:
Read the scenario above and answer the following questions:
How should you handle this problem?
Is the personnel evaluation an appropriate time to address the petition?

Program Development Case StudyHappy Valley Hospital is a community-based facility with 288 acute care beds, a twelve suite family-oriented birthing center, a forty four bed long-term care inpatient facility, and a fourteen bed inpatient rehabilitation unit. Happy Valley has a major competitor, GH, which has two hundred beds, a small cancer center, and a kidney dialysis unit.Happy Valley’s director of internal medicine, along with the director of nursing for that department, are considering establishing a new hemodialysis service. GH has a small hemodialysis unit, but they do not have enough beds to properly accommodate the needs of this community.The Happy Valley medical director has surveyed the six nephrologists with staff privileges at the hospital and has determined that all six agree that there is a need for more hemodialysis beds in the community. Moreover, these nephrologists all have staff privileges at both Happy Valley and GH and would prefer that the new beds be added to the GH unit. GH, however, has no plans to expand their unit for at least the next five years, and presently, new patients are being referred to a dialysis unit in another community thirty minutes south of Happy Valley Hospital. Those patients as well as their families find this alternative site and location to be unacceptable.Based on your understanding of the above case, express your views on the following:How should the medical director at Happy Valley try to convince patients now being referred to the dialysis unit thirty minutes to the south to switch their care to Happy Valley Hospital?What steps should the Happy Valley medical director take to ensure that patients will get the proper care and facilities at the Happy Valley Hospital hemodialysis unit, when it is established?Is the approach of GH for not having any expansion plans for the next five years for their unit justified, keeping in mind the interest of the community? Why or why not?APA format

Complete your Week 2 required discussion prompt.
- Discuss two areas of difficulty you encountered or two new nursing interventions you learned this week at your clinical site. You may also choose to share one of each.
Journal
Topic for the Journal: Anticoagulant and Antiplatelet medication side effect risk on older population.
Example: Incorrect doses, falls, medication and food interactions
- 1 What are your upcoming week’s specific learning goals and objectives?
- 2 What is your upcoming week’s detailed schedule at your community practice experience placement? Two days, 4 hours each day
- 3 Were there any placement items/issues that occurred this week that you feel your instructor should be aware of that are private in nature and are more appropriately shared here than in the discussion board with your classmates?
- 4 Give a brief description of an objective you worked on this week. Make sure to cite at least one reference showing how your objective relates to the public health knowledge you’ve studied during this course or the public health course. You may choose to reference your e-text, journal articles, or videos you’ve studied during these courses or you may find an outside reference on your own to further enhance your public health knowledge and practices.
Remember, your journal entries are an important aspect of clinical learning as they serve to help you reflect upon and get the most out of your community practice experience. Therefore, your journal entry should include the who, what, where, and when of your community practice experience. Remember, this should simulate a dialogue that would normally take place face-to-face with your community practice experience instructor.
Bad News Message
You may choose to use EITHER the “Was that Harassment” case study as your scenario, OR you can one of the following five scenarios to write your bad news message.
You may choose to use EITHER the “Was that Harassment” case study as your scenario, OR you can one of the following five scenarios to write your bad news message.
- Notify someone they are not accepted into your sorority, fraternity, club, team, etc. Use a realistic situation to explain why this person is not accepted.
- Pretend a group member in one of your classes has not been participating and you have decided to take action with the instructor to get the person removed from your group.
- Tell a classmate that you have decided not to invest in his/her start-up idea.
- Pretend you have interviewed someone at your job and management has decided not to hire them.
- Use the case study in the text on pages 264 – 265. Assume the role of Nick and write an email to your uncle explaining why you think the company needs to get out of chemicals. You think the chemicals division could be sold for around half a million dollars. You currently have about $740,000 in debt related to the chemicals division. You would need to lay off ten employees, all of whom have been loyal to the company for many years. However, you think it’s necessary because the chemical division lost nearly $200,000 last year, and you expect things to get worse.
If using the “Was that Harassment” case study, assume Teaira has moved forward with a complaint. After meeting with Coltra leadership, compliance representatives, and legal counsel, you have determined this incident constituted harassment.
Writing as Suzanne Bibb (see 162 -3 of your Case) and address your Bad News Message to Jackson. While maintaining Teaira’s confidentiality, inform Jackson of the disciplinary measures you are taking. Use your discretion in determining Jackson’s punishment. You can:
- Immediately terminate
- Require enrollment in training courses, with continued employment conditional on prompt attendance
- Issue a warning, outlining the harassment warranting your letter, and your expectations moving forward, describing ramifications for continued violations
- Reassign to another work group, department, or branch
- Suspend, with or without pay

A 38-year-old woman presents to the office with complaints of weight
loss, fatigue, and insomnia of 3-month duration. She reports that she has
been feeling gradually more tired and staying up late at night because
she can’t sleep. She does not feel that she is doing as well in her occupation
as a secretary and states that she has trouble remembering things.
She does not go outdoors as much as she used to and cannot recall the
last time she went out with friends or enjoyed a social gathering. She
feels tired most of the week and states she feels that she wants to go to
sleep and frequently does not want to get out of bed. She denies any
recent medication, illicit drug, or alcohol use. She feels intense guilt
regarding past failed relationships because she perceives them as faults.
She states she has never thought of suicide, but has begun to feel increasingly
worthless.
Her vital signs and general physical examination are normal, although
she becomes tearful while talking. Her mental status examination is significant
for depressed mood, psychomotor retardation, and difficulty attending
to questions. Laboratory studies reveal a normal metabolic panel, normal
complete blood count, and normal thyroid functions.
