BEFORE BEGINNING PLEASE REFER BACK TO MODULE 1 CASE IN REGARDS TO HEALTH HOME AGENCY, AS SARA’S SUPERVISOR

Discussion: Recognizing a Problem

There is a tendency among managers to quickly resolve problems even though they may not full understand or appreciate the many causal factors contributing to the problem. As a result, these managers function like firefighters, putting quick fixes to problems in hopes that they will be resolved. In reality, some problems are resolved whereas, in many cases, the perceived solution is short lived and non-effective.   On the other hand, there are managers who suffer from a phenomenon known as “analysis paralysis”. They become so obsessed with identifying and analyzing “all” of the casual factors associated with a problem that the manager may never get around to implementing a solution.

Keeping in mind the case of the home health agency that we have discussed since Module 1. As Sara’s supervisor, how would you approach her case to ensure timely solution is implemented in regards to the concern of disease outbreak? What are the limitations of your approach?

The Role of Risk Factors in the Outcome Measures in patients Diagnosed with COVID-19

 Considering staggering expenditure on healthcare in the USA, evaluate the current healthcare system, and offer some areas of potential cost reduction. Provide some ideas on how to accomplish the cost reduction without a drop in patient care quality. Also consider ways to improve quality by cost reduction. Make sure to offer credible evidence to support your ideas.

This year has seen the largest increase in the use of telemedicine, largely due to the COVID-19 pandemic. Millions of Americans are relying on health information through technology, which changes the roles of healthcare professionals. Nagle, Sermeus, & Junger (2017) allude to physicians and nurses recognizing a shift in their roles in direct patient care to that of knowledge broker, helping patients manage and understand their care through the information they can access. For knowledge to be valuable from a nursing informatics standpoint, it must be easily accessible, timely, and lead to the formation of new knowledge (McGonigle & Mastrian, 2017).

As a Labor and Delivery nurse, I rely on specific data that directly impacts the wellbeing of a mother and her unborn child. An example of pertinent data in the care of a pregnant patient is her blood type. It is important for all pregnant patients to have a blood type and screen as part of routine prenatal lab work in order to prepare for possible Rh-incompatibility with the fetus. If a pregnant patient has a negative blood type (Rh-negative), she will need to receive a Rh immune-globulin injection during her pregnancy around 28 weeks and following delivery, as there is a chance her unborn child could have a positive blood type (such as B+). While Rh-incompatibility is not an issue in a woman’s first pregnancy, it can create serious problems after maternal and fetal blood mix at time of delivery. In subsequent pregnancies, Rh-incompatibility will cause problems such as miscarriage, ectopic pregnancy, and hemolytic disease of the newborn without the Rh immune-globulin injection (KidsHealth, n.d.). Due to the success of the injections, intrauterine fetal blood transfusions are rare in the United States (KidsHealth, n.d.).

By using the clinical data of obtaining the blood type of a pregnant patient, the healthcare provider determines if she needs doses of an Rh immune-globulin injection. This simple understanding protects the wellbeing of the patient and her potential future unborn children. By promoting the preventative care of Rh-negative pregnant patients through the interpretation of data collection, millions of dollars, and infant lives, can be saved each year.

You will be the expert: Imagine you are teaching a class on controlling microbial growth in the environment. To test your students, you will present them with a scenario including a site and some probable microbes present. They must design a strategy to eliminate harmful microbes from the area.

In this discussion, each student should present a scenario for analysis by his or her classmates, and propose an answer to another classmate’s scenario. Be as creative as you can!
