Discussion Board

 Read the following situation and start a discussion about it. 

Sustain your arguments with the support of literature.

Scenario 

You are one of the Nurse Practitioners working at a Community Medical Center. 

You heard one of the Physicians saying the following in a conversation with another doctor:

“It is unusual for NPs to refer themselves as a Doctor because they simply are not. It is atypical. I also think that Nurse Practitioners should not work independently, at any time, and in any circumstances. There must always be a real Doctor to guide them. They must always work under the mandate of a Doctor”.

What do you think about that?

State your position or point of view about it.

If you had the opportunity to be part of the conversation,  what would you respond to the doctor’s argument?

Health care policy

 

Population Health Advocacy

Human trafficking, extreme poverty, preventable diseases, the opioid crisis and the lack of adequate low-income housing are a few current societal concerns worthy of social change. Nurses and healthcare leaders are in a good position to shape and influence health care policy.

Think of a cause you believe in strongly. Access the website of your elected officials either at the local, state, or federal level using the following link: https://www.usa.gov/elected-officials/ or use the website of your choice. Explore some of the issues and committees your legislators are involved in and select at least one that interest you or align with your beliefs. You may also contact your legislator’s office and speak to his or her legislative assistant by calling the U.S. Capitol switchboard operator at (202) 224-3121 for the Senate and (202) 225-3121 for the House. Legislator assistants are very knowledgeable about the legislator’s agenda and can provide a wealth of information. 

This assignment will be at least 1500 words or more. This week reflect on advocacy, collaborative partnerships with other health care practitioners and stakeholders, and the policy making process and write a paper that addresses the following:

  • Describe the policy issue, policy problem of interest or a particular bill that your legislator has introduced
  • Elaborate on why the policy matters and what you can possibly do to strengthen the policy? 
  • Briefly define the role you would play as an advocate for the healthcare consumer and healthcare professionals.
  • Explain how the policy impacts the public at large or a particular population. 
  • What stakeholders would you collaborate with to promote the cause?

Deontology Paper

  

I need a Turnitin Report

SELECT ONLY ONE FILM

Read chapter 3, and watch the films “Gone Baby Gone” and “Sleepers”. Pick one movie and apply Kant’s moral philosophy to judge the MAIN FINAL action.

** For “Gone Baby Gone” judge Patrick’s final decision 

 ** For “Sleepers” judge the priest’s final decision. 

Judging any other action in the movie is an automatic zero.

500 words minimum in MLA format. 

*You must apply Kant’s 3 premises and Michael Sandel’s 3 contrasts 

  

Kant’s Three Premises

Kant’s Categorical Imperative

Nature of the concept

The concept of the categorical imperative is a syllogism

1.The first premise is that a person acts morally if his or her conduct would, without condition, be the “right” conduct for any person in similar circumstances (the “First Maxim”).

2.The second premise is that conduct is “right” if it treats others as ends in themselves and not as means to an end (the “Second Maxim”).

3.The conclusion is that a person acts morally when he or she acts as if his or her conduct was establishing a universal law governing others in similar circumstances (the “Third Maxim”).

Kant’s Three Premises Explained

In the case of ” Gone Baby Gone” the philosophical process you will follow in this paper should sound as something like this:

According to Kant’s first premise Patrick behaved moral because he returned the victim he was hired to find and without condition this is the “right” conduct for any detective in cases of kidnapping (the “First Maxim”). Here Kant speaks of doing the right prior to good.

2. On Kant’s second premise Patrick acted moral because he respected the dignity of Amanda and he treated her as an end in herself and not as means to an end like everyone else was doing in the film (the “Second Maxim”). Here Kant speaks of humans as special creatures and ends in themselves. Humans are ends, not means to an end. Los seres humanos son un fin, no un medio para un fin.

3. The conclusion is that a detective act morally when he reports a kidnapping to the police and this behavior should establish a universal law governing all detectives in cases of kidnapping (the “Third Maxim”). Here Kant asks us to test the universality of our action. Will it be OK if everyone does what I am about to do?

  VIDEO Michael Sandel’s 3 contrasts

Three contrasts:

** Morality { the motive of duty}

**Freedom {Determination of will}

** Reason {imperatives}
