Explain the difference between differing quality outcomes.

Module 5 Overview
Introduction
Quality drives excellence. How does nursing play a role in quality outcomes? The profession does this daily by providing excellent care to patients. The quality outcomes are also heavily dependent on the nursing case management team. This is becoming more prevalent with the demands to treat patients in an outpatient setting. So that lends the question; how soon is too soon for discharge? It also creates the need for strong care teams that can manage patients aggressively in an outpatient setting. This week will challenge us to look at our organizations quality outcomes and programs and determine if they are effective or not. We will also begin to evaluate quality from a community aspect and discuss the impact of that on patient outcomes.
Learning Outcomes
After completing this module, you will be able to:
Identify the concept of patient centered healthcare goals
Describe the role of quality programs on a community
Explain the difference between differing quality outcomes.

What are the long-term and short-term effects of the decision for each stakeholder?

Look over the three following case studies of ethical dilemmas:
Victor, D. (2017, April 5). “Pepsi Pulls Ad Accused of Trivializing Black Lives Matter”
Actions
. The New York Times.
Dana, W. (2014, December 5). “A Note to Our Readers”
(Links to an external site.)
. Rolling Stone.
Kirsch, N. (2018, July 11). “Papa John’s Founder Used N-Word On Conference Call”
(Links to an external site.)
. Forbes.
For each case, identify the media practitioner at the center of the dilemma and at least six individual stakeholders or stakeholder groups that are affected by the practitioner’s decision. Get creative! There are always more stakeholders than the “victim” and “actor.”
What are the long-term and short-term effects of the decision for each stakeholder? As a communication leader, what is your response/message to each stakeholder?

Describe how family systems theory can be applied to solicit changes in family members that, in turn, initiate positive changes to the overall family functions over time.

Understanding family structure and style is essential to patient and family care. Conducting a family interview and needs assessment gathers information to identify strengths, as well as potential barriers to health. This information ultimately helps develop family-centered strategies for support and guidance.
This family health assessment is a two-part assignment. The information you gather in this initial assignment will be utilized for the second assignment in Topic 3.
Develop an interview questionnaire to be used in a family-focused functional assessment. The questionnaire must include three open-ended, family-focused questions to assess functional health patterns for each of the following:
Values/Health Perception
Nutrition
Sleep/Rest
Elimination
Activity/Exercise
Cognitive
Sensory-Perception
Self-Perception
Role Relationship
Sexuality
Coping
Select a family, other than your own, and seek permission from the family to conduct an interview. Utilize the interview questions complied in your interview questionnaire to conduct a family-focused functional assessment. Document the responses as you conduct the interview.
Upon completion of the interview, write a 750-1,000-word paper. Analyze your assessment findings. Submit your questionnaire as an appendix with your assignment.
Include the following in your paper:
Describe the family structure. Include individuals and any relevant attributes defining the family composition, race/ethnicity, social class, spirituality, and environment.
Summarize the overall health behaviors of the family. Describe the current health of the family.
Based on your findings, describe at least two of the functional health pattern strengths noted in the findings. Discuss three areas in which health problems or barriers to health were identified.
Describe how family systems theory can be applied to solicit changes in family members that, in turn, initiate positive changes to the overall family functions over time.
Cite at least three peer-reviewed or scholarly sources to complete this assignment. Sources should be published within the last 5 years and appropriate for the assignment criteria.
Prepare this assignment according to the guidelines found in the APA Style Guide, located in the Student Success Center.
This assignment uses a rubric. Please review the rubric prior to beginning the assignment to become familiar with the expectations for successful completion.
You are required to submit this assignment to LopesWrite. A link to the LopesWrite technical support articles is located in Course Materials if you need assistance.

Explain how the intersection of art and spirituality nurture the healing process?

Write a literature review for a future paper on how the intersection of art and spirituality can nurture the healing process. It is for a class on creativity and healing in a PhD. Psychology program. The paper should be utilizing the resources attached as examples and places for further inquiry around the history and experience of the synthesis of art and spirituality/religion for healing. The literature review requires central questions such as “how can we create more spaces for combining art and spirituality for personal and collective healing?” and “How does the introduction of religion and/or spirituality inform the creative healing process?” It also requires sub-questions that will help you explore the central questions in more depth. Please read the directions carefully, making sure to include the abstract, central questions, sub-questions, purpose statements, outline, resources, and whatever else is mentioned in the directions. Thank you so much and blessings.
