short answers.

Cannabis is one of the most frequently used illicit substance in the U.S; with a mixed effect on the health of the population. Despite potential benefits, the use of cannabis has been linked with various adverse effects, especially among adolescents (Hall & Lynskey 2016). Classic negative effects include increased risk of using other drugs, diminished life satisfaction, cognitive impairment, and impaired short-term memory. Although the laws and regulations that have been enacted both at the state and federal levels have been to regulate cannabis use, there are waves or movements that seek to decriminalize and legalize the use of cannabis.

Cannabis legalization affects public safety issues. About 79% of U.S residents believe that the legalization of cannabis in the country would increase the number of car accidents caused by cannabis-user drivers (Young, Padwa & Bonar 2019). Public health will also be affected when cannabis is legalized. Various studies have shown that the legalization of cannabis is associated with lower rates of opioid-related overdose, harm, and death. This could significantly improve health for the general population in the present environment of the opioid epidemic. While most Americans opposing the legalization of cannabis maintain that it would lead to individuals using more addictive and stronger drugs, there has not been enough support for this belief.

In several states with legalized cannabis, it has been reported that the use of cannabis among the youth has not changed with respect to the states where the substance is not legalized. Research has not indicated any effect of cannabis legalization on the graduation or dropout rates. In conclusion, so far, research findings have shown that the legalization of cannabis can have several positive social effects, and more would definitely come with additional states considering legalizing cannabis.

You have been a CPA for many years and recently opened your own practice focusing on small businesses. You have a meeting with a client, Jack, who has an interesting career as a professional gambler. He makes about $100,000 per year and has won many tournaments on the circuit. He is considering entering the WSOP to play for “the bracelet.”

As is standard procedure, you ask Jack for his taxes, and he says he hasn’t filed taxes since 2016 (meaning he has not filed 2017, 2018, and 2019, where 2019 is the current year), because he does not work, due to his time spent playing poker and attending tournaments. He actually says he is now concerned because his father said he should have been filing taxes, but he believed an accountant he met at a party, who after many, many martinis said he would not have to file taxes because this is a “hobby.”

Your tasks:

Jack makes good money now, but in 2017 he thinks he had losses and barely broke even in 2018. The first project Jack agrees to pay you for ($1300 max) is for a tax memo concerning this issue.

1. Using an appropriate research tool, research to see if Gambling is income and subject to tax.

2. Using an appropriate research tool, research to see if Jack does have to file or not.

3. Assuming he does (regardless of the answer above), can you still file a return he has not filed previously in 2017 and 2018?

Using the information above, write the memo using the header below:

Assignment: Evidence-Based Project, Part 5: Recommending an Evidence-Based Practice Change

The collection of evidence is an activity that occurs with an endgame in mind. For example, law enforcement professionals collect evidence to support a decision to charge those accused of criminal activity. Similarly, evidence-based healthcare practitioners collect evidence to support decisions in pursuit of specific healthcare outcomes.

In this Assignment, you will identify an issue or opportunity for change within your healthcare organization and propose an idea for a change in practice supported by an EBP approach.

To Prepare:

• Reflect on the four peer-reviewed articles you critically appraised in Module 4, related to your clinical topic of interest and PICOT.
• Reflect on your current healthcare organization and think about potential opportunities for evidence-based change, using your topic of interest and PICOT as the basis for your reflection.

The Assignment: (Evidence-Based Project)

Part 5: Recommending an Evidence-Based Practice Change

Create an 8- to 9-slide PowerPoint presentation in which you do the following:

• Briefly describe your healthcare organization, including its culture and readiness for change. (You may opt to keep various elements of this anonymous, such as your company name.)
• Describe the current problem or opportunity for change. Include in this description the circumstances surrounding the need for change, the scope of the issue, the stakeholders involved, and the risks associated with change implementation in general.
• Propose an evidence-based idea for a change in practice using an EBP approach to decision making. Note that you may find further research needs to be conducted if sufficient evidence is not discovered.
• Describe your plan for knowledge transfer of this change, including knowledge creation, dissemination, and organizational adoption and implementation.
• Describe the measurable outcomes you hope to achieve with the implementation of this evidence-based change.
• Be sure to provide APA citations of the supporting evidence-based peer reviewed articles you selected to support your thinking.
• Add a lessons learned section that includes the following:
  • A summary of the critical appraisal of the peer-reviewed articles you previously submitted
  • An explanation about what you learned from completing the Evaluation Table within the Critical Appraisal Tool Worksheet Template (1-3 slides)

Consider the following scenario: 

During the second week of your internship, the CIO approaches your team and says, “I need you to prepare a briefing on the process of selecting and acquiring an information system for our health care organization. Include how the goals of our organization and stakeholders affect the selection process. I must have this briefing this week so I can prepare for several meetings I must attend.” 

 Describe the process for selecting and acquiring an information system. 250 – 300 words with 1 reference, APA format

As a professional nurse, you are expected to apply your expertise to patient care. On occasion, you will also be expected to share that expertise.

With evolving technology and continuous changes to regulations designed to keep up these changes, there is usually a need to share information and expertise to inform colleagues, leadership, patients, and other stakeholders.

In this Assignment, you will study a recent nursing informatics-related healthcare policy, and you will share the relevant details via a fact sheet designed to inform and educate.

To Prepare:

• Review the Resources on healthcare policy and regulatory/legislative topics related to health and nursing informatics.
• Consider the role of the nurse informaticist in relation to a healthcare organization’s compliance with various policies and regulations, such as the Medicare Access and CHIP Reauthorization Act (MACRA).
• Research and select one health or nursing informatics policy (within the past 5 years) or regulation for further study.

The Assignment: (1-2 page)

Create a 1-2 page fact sheet that your healthcare organization could hypothetically use to explain the health or nursing informatics policy/regulation you selected. Your fact sheet should address the following:

• Briefly and generally explain the policy or regulation you selected.
• Address the impact of the policy or regulation you selected on system implementation.
• Address the impact of the policy or regulation you selected on clinical care, patient/provider interactions, and workflow.
• Highlight organizational policies and procedures that are/will be in place at your healthcare organization to address the policy or regulation you selected. Be specific.
