1. Answers the following questions:
   1. What is a Change Agent?
   2. How do you envision yourself as an Agent of Change?
      • Before you answer the question above, consider the various roles we have already studied, the population that you served, your area of expertise in your practice, and your own unique talents. This is a self-reflection assignment.

My chosen condition is HIV and Mental Health

This discussion represents the second step in a three-step discussion series where you will choose your pathophysiology adventure to analyze and present to the class. Students will continue to explore the disease process that was chosen in Week 2. In this step of the discussion series, you will describe the pathophysiology of your chosen condition from Week 2 and its manifestations, diagnosis, and lifespan considerations. You will also create your case study.  

1. Describe the pathophysiology of the chosen condition. What is the condition’s etiology, signs and symptoms, complications, and risk factors? 
2. Discuss how the condition is diagnosed. What are relevant assessment findings, labs, and imaging studies? 
3. Explain how the pathophysiology of the condition might differ across the lifespan. Does the condition manifest in pediatric, pregnant, breastfeeding, and older adult populations? How might the condition look different across the lifespan? 
4. Create your case study based on the chosen condition (~ 1,000 words or less using bullet points and full sentences). Start with the diagnosis and work backward to develop a clinical scenario that leads to this diagnosis. Include the client’s name, social background, symptoms, lab results, medical or surgical history, and other relevant details. 

It is very important that community health nurses
provide not only input to policy circles through advocacy
but also leadership at decision-making tables. The
community health nurse is reviewing an online in-
service program on the importance of this role in
providing an essential influence and unique perspective
in health care.
1. Seasoned advocates have developed skills in
influencing policy decisions. Some individuals
use the “ten commandments of lobbying.” What
are the basic ideas that are inherent to
advocates?
2. The community health nurse needs to know
something about the forces shaping health policy
and the policy process in order to be in a better
position to influence policy outcomes. What are
the three components of Kingdon’s framework
for policy analysis?

1. Answers must:
   • Be 100 words or more
   • Use the standard English grammar and spelling
   • References are cited (if necessary)

1. Please provide at least one intervention that is most likely to positively influence the client’s adoption of a new healthy behavior.

2. Relate the intervention you chose to one of the Social Determinants of Health, why you chose this topic?

My research focus as Family Nurse Practitioner is on reducing the proportion of adults with Generalized Anxiety Disorder (GAD) from moderate to mild anxiety in Plainfield, Illinois, so I’m considering the following variables:

• Independent Variable: Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) intervention.
• Dependent Variable: Anxiety severity level (measured using the Generalized Anxiety Disorder-7 [GAD-7] scale).

Discuss the windshield assessment assignment from attached paper. Create the Capstone Project Introduction, and the PICOT Statement based on Healthy People 2023 related to the 3 needs identified , in this assignment the literature review will be completed. Literature review of the topic (summarize at least 5 articles related to the topic). 5 pages apa 7th edition 6 references within 5 years.

PICOT question is a structured way to formulate a clinical research question, using the acronym Patient/Population, Intervention, Comparison, Outcome, and sometimes Time.

Literature review is a comprehensive summary and critical analysis of existing research on a specific topic, demonstrating your understanding of the field and justifying your research question or thesis.

Post a brief description of general healthcare technology trends, particularly related to data/information you have observed in use in your healthcare organization or nursing practice. Describe any potential challenges or risks that may be inherent in the technologies associated with these trends you described. Then, describe at least one potential benefit and one potential risk associated with data safety, legislation, and patient care for the technologies you described. Next, explain which healthcare technology trends you believe are most promising for impacting healthcare technology in nursing practice and explain why. Describe whether this promise will contribute to improvements in patient care outcomes, efficiencies, or data management. Be specific and provide examples.
