Solos and Duos: Group vs. Individual Communication

/in /by

 

To get started on your final Key Assignment, you will select a global company and begin working to create an internal communication plan for that company. Each week’s assignment will be iterative, helping you research and start to develop a workplace communication plan. You will use research to study your selected company and design an internal communication plan. You may select a company that you are interested in, or choose one from this list of top global companies in the following link: http://money.cnn.com/magazines/fortune/global500/2011/.

You have been assigned to a global work team tasked with creating a strategic internal employee communications plan for your workplace. Before the team can get started, you must examine the workplace to identify what the overall strategy must cover. Consider the following when brainstorming your communication strategy:

  • Sketch out your understanding of communication with a visual map.
  • Determine the best platforms for communication (virtual or face-to-face).
  • Develop at least 3 advantages and 3 disadvantages of electronic and in-person communication.
  • Compare and contrast 2 written and oral communication methods.

Provide 1–2 sources other than your textbook to support your answer. Use APA style for citations.

CAPSTONE PART 1

/in /by

PAY ATTENTION:  You should  have a specific setting for the population (USE EDERLY PATIENTS) and your intervention should last 8 weeks. Why is there ‘inadequate heart failure management” for patients.

What does the “heart failure management entail? 

Limit the outcomes for your PICOT.

PICOT QUESTION IS ATTACHED

1. Title Page

2. Introduction to your proposed problem: 

– Significance of the Practice Problem: Discuss the identified Practice Problem.

-Introduce the topic of the paper. 

-Describe the health problem. Don’t type “Introduction.”

-Using data and statistics, support your claim that your selected issue is a problem.

– Include your purpose statement and what specifically you will address in your proposed program. 

-Be sure your proposed outcome is realistic and measurable.

3. PICOT- Should be discussed in detail. This section should include your PICOT question but also should provide thorough descriptions of your population, intervention, comparison intervention, outcome, and timing (if appropriate to your question).

The word PICOT is a mnemonic derived from the elements of a clinical research question – patient, intervention, comparison, outcome, and (sometimes) time. The PICOT process begins with a case scenario, and the question is phrased to elicit an answer. P – Patient/Problem I – Intervention C – Comparison O – Outcome T – Timeframe

4. Describe the vulnerable population 

-Discuss the impact of social determinants on health for your selected population.

-What are the risk factors that make this a vulnerable population? 

-Use evidence to support the risk factors you have identified. 

5. Research should be from scholarly journals of evidence-based interventions that address the problem.

-Peer-reviewed research articles not older than five years (all articles must be used in your paper)

6. Proposal 

-Propose addressing the selected health problem using an evidence-based intervention in your literature search to address the problem in the selected population/setting. 

-Include a thorough discussion of the specifics of this intervention which include resources necessary, those involved, and feasibility for a nurse in an advanced role.

-Be sure to include a timeline for the intervention proposed. 

7. Theoretical Framework/Nursing Theory- This section should include the theoretical framework which supports your project. Describe a theory or model to serve as the foundation for your project.

– Overall, you should be able to introduce the problem and why this is significant to the healthcare system. For example: What impact does it have on the patient, community, cost of care, quality of life, readmissions and so forth

-Use appropriate APA 7th Ed. format along with Syllabus outline

-Scholarly, peer-reviewed, and research articles cited should be within the last five years. 

-This section should be 3 pages long (not including the title and reference page).

 -Use proper in-text citations with a properly formatted reference list. 

 -All papers must be written in the 3rd person.

NO MORE THAN 10% PLAGIARISM

USE 3-4 REFERENCES NO OLDER THAN 5 YEARS

Nursing Discussion assignment

/in /by

Discussion: Write at least 2 paragraph with citations in APA format.

Explain the meaning of an asset-based approach to health improvement.

· Provide an example of how positive resources available to individuals and communities enable them to gain more control over their lives and circumstances.

· Describe two to three implications for nursing practice including the cultural aspects.

Reply to the two discussions below (You do not need to use the same citation in the responses to the discussions.

Discussion #1

Hi Angelica, I agree with your view of the asset-based approach and its significance in healthcare. I think it means focusing on community resources that could promote health and well-being. Cassetti et al. (2019) explain that health assets are resources such as skills that improve people’s ability to maintain health. I have also thought that resources are a primary strength in communities that empower individuals and help in overcoming health promotion obstacles. Your example of using written or visual communication to overcome language barriers demonstrates the significance of utilizing community resources. In this scenario, some community members could have the ability to translate health promotion materials using local language. Nurses should build healthy relationships with such individuals to effectively advance individual well-being. I agree with your suggestions for nursing practice—practitioners should understand and respect communities’ communication styles. Do you think cultural competence is a vital element in an asset-based approach?

Discussion #2

Asset-based approaches to health promotion have become increasingly popular to tackle health inequalities by empowering people in more disadvantaged communities to use local resources and increase control over health and its determinants (Cassetti et al, 2019).  This approach focuses on resources available in the community and using those resources to address healthcare disparities facing the underserved communities.

I moved to Salt Lake City, UT from another country about 15 years ago; one of the resources I got connected early on and found very successful across the immigrants’ communities is a community gardening program run by local nonprofit, county, and city government. It is called ‘New Roots’ program (New roots in Salt Lake City, n.d.). It provides garden plots, technical support, seeds and other resources for local refugee and immigrants community to grow seasonal vegetables and help them sell those in local farmers’ markets. Fresh produces are sold weekly; individuals who have Supplemental Nutritional Assistance Program (SNAP) will be able to use it to buy double the produce than in local markets through match from grants. This asset-based approach provides immigrants with sense of ownership of gardens, sense of community, physical and mental exercises, fresh produces, and an ability to earn some money through selling produces.

Mental health, social work, and nursing embrace an asset-based approach to assessment within the health promotion context (Edelman & Kudzma, 2021, p. 146). Nurses can use asset-based approach in identifying gaps in services for the patients/families we are caring for and connect them to available resources to address their needs. Nurses are members of the community, and it is very crucial for us as nurses to be aware of the health care context, service gaps and resources in our community, especially when we are working with individuals from underserved communities.

Step 1 Post your response to the discussion board.

Currently, nursing services are considered an expense for which healthcare organizations cannot bill separately. Respond to the following questions and, if appropriate, include personal experience as part of your answers:

  • Why are healthcare organizations unable to bill separately for nursing services, and what is the impact on nurse leaders?
  • What can the nursing profession, and specifically nursing leaders, do to change this issue?
  • Why are nursing services considered an expense and not an income generator?

Step 2 Read other students’ posts and respond to at least two of them by Friday at 11:59pm Mountain Time.

Ask questions of the other students that promote further thinking and discussion on the topic. Consider the changes to billing identified by the other students. Do you agree or disagree that these changes can make an impact on nursing services? Why or why not?

Use your personal experience, if it’s relevant, to support or debate other students’ posts. If differences of opinion occur, debate the issues professionally and provide examples to support opinions.
