According to the textbook, A recent area of research involves the development of paper-based measuring devices. For example, the nonprofit organization Diagnostics for All (DFA) based in Cambridge, Massachusetts, has invented a paper-based device to detect proper liver function. In this test, a drop of the patients blood is placed on the paper, and the resulting color that develops can be used to determine whether the persons liver function is normal, worrisome, or requires immediate action. Because these paper-based devices are cheap, disposable, and easily transportable, they are especially useful in developing countries (Zumdahl/DeCoste , 2019). Include the following questions in this paper:
Do scientists have a moral obligation to use chemistry for purposes like the one stated above? Why or why not?
How else can chemistry be used to make a positive impact on the world?
How might chemistry be misused to have a negative impact? What measures can scientists put in place to remove that threat?

Explain how effective leaders find a balance between the needs of the organization and the needs of ensuring quality, effective, and safe patient care?
Discussion: Organizational Policies and Practices to Support Healthcare Issues
Quite often, nurse leaders are faced with ethical dilemmas, such as those associated with choices between competing needs and limited resources. Resources are finite, and competition for those resources occurs daily in all organizations.
For example, the use of 12-hour shifts has been a strategy to retain nurses. However, evidence suggests that as nurses work more hours in a shift, they commit more errors. How do effective leaders find a balance between the needs of the organization and the needs of ensuring quality, effective, and safe patient care?
In this Discussion, you will reflect on a national healthcare issue and examine how competing needs may impact the development of polices to address that issue.
To Prepare:
Review the Resources and think about the national healthcare issue/stressor you previously selected for study in Module 1.
Reflect on the competing needs in healthcare delivery as they pertain to the national healthcare issue/stressor you previously examined.
By Day 3 of Week 3
Post an explanation of how competing needs, such as the needs of the workforce, resources, and patients, may impact the development of policy. Then, describe any specific competing needs that may impact the national healthcare issue/stressor you selected. What are the impacts, and how might policy address these competing needs? Be specific and provide examples.
