Base in this argument I need a good comment( related to this argument), to post in my online class There are numerous ways through which knowledge of history and foundations of nursing build the context, which enable nurses’ to understand current practice. They help nurture a sense of nursing professional identity, as well as, ensure development of nursing profession. Specifically, they generate knowledge nursing background, that help nurses garner in-depth knowledge and skills to enable then understand how nursing really works and where it is headed in a manner enabling them to make better decisions and changes to making nursing profession richer/better. The foundations and history have been responsible for advancements in nursing education, development of new knowledge and improved outcomes, as written by Florence Nightingale and other theorists. Hence, having such knowledge helps nurses internalize the scope and true essence of nursing, thus able to practice nursing as a fulfilling profession with a higher and true purpose. In essence, the foundations and history offer much rational and clear directions in practicing nursing; they help I understanding nursing in terms of what nurses think instead of practitioner, thus able to express nursing better to other stakeholders, help organize knowledge in particular nursing disciplines/areas, help view problems in different nursing perspectives to address them better (Hood, & Leddy, 2006). 1. i. Among the three remarkable trends in nursing has been the development of nursing technology, which has continued to evolve as the patients needs continue to increase in complexity. As a result, many developments in technologies that help treat diseases, diagnose patients and monitor them within a short span of time have become evident. 2. ii. The second trend relate to ANA institutionalizing and developing ways to ensure RNs were credentialed in different specializations. This has provided an avenue to strengthen nursing profession through developed degree programs and training while ensuring adherence to care standards and regulations of nursing licensure and professional association. 3. iii. The third trend relates to nursing uniform history. Nursing uniform has represented not just functional role, but also noble works that nurses perform, which are essential in offering care. 4. iv. The ceremonial pin and cap of nurses have grown from being purely used in assisting nurses keep their head covered to maintain hygiene to purely a reflection of academic achievement to not being part of professional/standard nursing uniform (Gran Canyon University, 2016). In the case of technology, I seen nursing practice not just in the dimension on the traditional practice confined to nursing, but a role expanded to other settings and approaches to delivering care. This is in relation to development of telehealth technology and other patient-monitor.

Background A significant criminal event may occur at any place and at any time. The size of the jurisdiction does not dictate the scope and scale of the incident. It is perfectly possible, even predictable, that investigative needs will be beyond the resources and/or sophistication of a local law enforcement agency. In such cases, one option is to expand the resources available through multiagency collaboration and cooperation (e.g., a task force). However, regardless of who or how many investigative resources are brought to bear on an incident, the parent agency remains responsible for the successful outcome of the criminal investigation. Project Setting Acting as a subject matter expert on criminal investigation, you have been asked to assist in the creation of a simulation exercise of a multijurisdictional criminal investigation. Some of the preliminary work has already been completed. Your specific task is to compile the post investigation review document (rubric) to be used by exercise assessors in their evaluation of the quality of the criminal investigation. This is what you know: A series of 11 random explosions have occurred in an area that traverses two states, and a total of seven counties (five counties in one state and two counties in the other state), embracing a total of nine cities and incorporated towns. The explosions resulted in five deaths, 32 injuries, and significant property damage. In each case, the explosion was detonated remotely. The lead investigative agency is the Virtual, Maryland, Police Department, because the first three explosions occurred within its jurisdiction. VPD has about 100 sworn personnel, including 17 all-purpose detective investigators. It has a certified forensic laboratory for rudimentary analysis, staffed by credentialed civilians. Ultimately, two suspects were identified and apprehended, one adult male and one teenage (minor) male. Statements were made by each, resulting in investigative searches and seizures of forensic evidence. Both subjects eventually confessed to their respective and collective parts in the crimes. Assessors in the simulation exercise will be debriefing the role players as to their actions; their understanding of the legal basis, purpose, and advantages and disadvantages of their investigative strategies; and the conduct of the investigation. The assessors have already come up with a series of questions for the participants. You have been asked to provide the "model" answer against which the responses of the participants will be graded. Following are the questions to be posed by the simulation exercise assessors to the investigators: Investigative Task Force Assuming that legal authority was not an issue, should this investigation be conducted by VPD personnel or a multijurisdictional task force? At what point should the potential of establishing an investigative task force be considered? What are the advantages and disadvantages of an investigative task force? Who, or wha.

Bacillus Anthracis is another term for Anthrax. Anthrax is a serious infectious disease that is caused by a gram-positive, rod shaped bacteria that belongs in category A. Organisms that belong in that category are easily passed from person to person. It belongs to a genus of aerobic, immobile, gram-positive and to encapsulated spores. Bacillus Anthracis was discovered in 1850 by Robert Koch, he grew the anthrax bacteria in culture plates, injected the bacteria into the animals and thereby demonstrated that the bacteria caused the disease. Bacillus Anthracis has a very high environmental resistance and spores are still infectious after years and sometimes even decades. There are different types of anthrax. The types include cutaneous, inhalation, gastrointestinal, and injection anthrax. Symptoms for Cutaneous Anthrax consists of a group of small blisters that may be itchy, swelling around sores, and ulcers. Cutaneous Anthrax is the most common way of transmission in the United States. Inhalation Anthrax symptoms consists of fevers, chills, shortness of breath, headaches, nausea, chest discomfort, and body aches. Gastrointestinal Anthrax symptoms consist of swelling of neck or neck glands, painful swallowing, sore throat, stomach pain, diarrhea, and hoarseness. Injection Anthrax will consist of fevers, chills, swelling around sores, painless sores with a black center, abscesses deep under the skin where the injection was given. Transmission is from animals or contaminated animal material which can be organs, skin, hides, wool, and bone meals to humans but it is also very possible to get the disease from person to person. People who handle animal products, veterinarians, live-stock producers, travelers, lab professionals are all at a higher risk. Therapy should be carried out over a 60 day period with adjustments of antibiotics in the course. .

Author Peggy Hutchison writes: “…extensive obstacles to friendship exist in families, communities, and services. As a result of these obstacles, people interviewed in this study reported knowing about very few real friendships which exist between people in their communities with handicaps and other citizens. This finding that the majority of people with handicaps still have few or no non-disabled friends is consistent with other findings” (Hutchison, 2010). After viewing the film, Rory O'Shea Was Here, and evaluating Hutchinson’s idea (both in the film and in your experience), please answer the following in a post of at least 250 words. Be sure to draw upon the issues raised in the film and your reading materials to answer the following: In what ways might it be possible for persons who are differently abled to enjoy deep and meaningful friendships compared with those outside of the community? What are the challenges? What are some of the special considerations for having friendships with persons who are differently abled? What is your own experience of friendships with persons who are differently abled? Evaluation Criteria Your initial post should be at least 250 words and must substantively integrate the assigned readings from the module with proper APA style formatting. .

Attached is a map of the ocean floor. It shows plate boundaries and features of the continental margin. All that you have to do is drag the letters from below and place them where they belong. You can open the attached tutorial to learn how to add letters and symbols. Complete the following; you only have to label one of each feature except for the earthquakes: Label each of the boundaries listed using the letters or shapes indicated: divergent (D), convergent (C) and transform fault boundaries (TF). Label each of the features listed : continental shelf, (SF) continental slope (SL), abyssal plain (AP), seamount (SM), trench (TR) and a hot spot (HS). Label Iceland (IL), Azores (AZ), Surtsey (SS). St. Helena (SH), Ascension (AS) and Tristan de Cunha (TC). Using the USGS earthquake site ( USGS Earthquake Site ), label the quakes over a 5.0 magnitude (★) and the quake closest to your location (∞).below. In the upper right hand corner of the page, you will see an icon that looks like a wheel or gear. Click on it and select 7-days, All Magnitudes, Worldwide. The three lines to the left of the gear provides you with a list of quakes starting with the most recent. Label the following: Rockies (RK), Himalayas (HM), Andes (AN) and Appalachians (AP). Label the following: Hawai’i (HI), Mt. St. Helens (ST), Etna (ET), Pelee (PE), Kilimanjaro (KI), Pinatubo (PI) and Fuji (FJ). Questions: Make sure that you answer each thoroughly. Describe the relationship, if any, of the boundaries in #1 to the features that you labeled in #2. Describe the relationship, if any, of the boundaries in #1 to the islands that you labeled in #3. Describe the relationship, if any, of the boundaries in #1 to the quakes that you labeled in #4. Describe the relationship, if any, of the boundaries in #1 to the mountain chains that you labeled in #5. Describe the relationship, if any, of the boundaries in #1 to the volcanoes that you labeled in #5. What do you think controls the appearance and form of the continental margin? How do you think that the mountain chains in #5 formed? Here is a thought question. Reflect back on your answer to questions C and E. Based on those responses, does it seem logical that Kilimanjaro is a much bigger volcano than any of the others, excluding Hawai’i? Hawai’i is a different type of volcano. Be sure to explain your answer. USGS Earthquake site When you have completed the map, save it to your computer, and submit it in Schoology. How to complete the exercise: Open the "GEO101L_Lab1_Map" file provided below. Expand the image (The bigger you can make the window, not the image itself, the easier it will be!). All of the symbols/letters that you will need are below the image. If not, see the directions below. If you click on a letter/symbol, you will see a box form around it. If you grab it by a line, not a circle, you can move it anywhere you wish. If it is difficult to get the line, you can zoom in or make the box bigger using the circles. Onc.
