Evidence–Based Health Evaluation and Application
Introduction
Public health improvement initiatives (PHII) provide invaluable data for patient–centered care, but their research is often conducted in a context
different from the needs of any individual patient. Providers must make a conscious effort to apply their findings to specific patients' care.
In this activity, you will learn about a PHII, and explore its application to a particular patient's care plan.

Good morning!
At last week's conference I spoke with Alicia Balewa, Director of Safe Headspace. They're a relatively new nonprofit working on improving outcomes
for TBI patients, and I immediately thought of Mr. Nowak. At his last biannual cholesterol screening he mentioned having trouble with his balance. This
may be related to his hypertension, but he believes it's related to the time he was hospitalized many years ago after falling out of a tree, and
expressed distress that this might be the beginning of a rapid decline.
Ms. Balewa will be on premises next week, and I'd like to set aside some time for you to talk.

My father came home from Vietnam with a kaleidoscope of mental health problems. That was the 1970s, when treatment options for things like PTSD,
TBI, and even depression were very different. Since then there has been a lot of investment in treatment and recovery for combat veterans. That's
excellent news for veterans in treatment now, but they're not looking at my dad, and how his TBI and PTSD have affected him through mid–life and
now as a senior. That's why I started Safe Headspace: to focus on older patients who are years or decades past their trauma, and find ways to help
them.
Which treatments showed the strongest improvement?
Exercise. We were able to persuade about half of our participants — that's around 400 people, mostly men ages 45–80 — to follow the CDC's
recommendations for moderate aerobic exercise. Almost everyone showed improvement in mood, memory, and muscle control after four weeks. After
that a lot of participants dropped out, which is disappointing. But of t ...

Patient Centered Care Report
Introduction
Population health improvement initiative is meant to bring some improvement in a certain health issue in the community (Hack et al., 2017). The initiative must have some outcomes at the end of the improvement process. These are the set goals or achievements that the initiative wishes to achieve at the end of the process.In the case at hand, the expected achievements of the population health improvement plan for elderly people with traumatic brain injury (TBI) and post traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) include; improvement in moods, memory, and muscle control. Most elderly people with TBI and PTSD have frequent cases of loss of memory. They tend to forget things easily (Winter et al., 2016). In addition, they also have issues with their moods. Their muscle control is also very low.

This is very confusing that the initiative wished to achieve, the achievements that were made are going to be focused in this section. The first one is improvement in memory. The initiative managed to improve the memory of the participants using various interventions. Exercise was the most effective treatment (Duzel, van Praag, & Sendtner, 2016). About four hundred people agreed to participate in the exercise therapy. This was about half the number of the total participants. They followed the Center incorrect name - Cente ...

Evidence-Based Practices & Nursing
Introduction
Normally, PICOT format is helpful in formulation of questions in an evidenced based clinical practice. PICOT generated questions generally fall under for main categories of clinical practices. These include; therapy, prevention, diagnosis, etiology as well as Prognosis. The essential elements in PICOT questions. The PICOT format is valuable in addressing research questions comprehensively. Five elements are normally addressed including; population, intervention, comparison, outcome and time as well (Riva, Malik, Burnie, Endicott, & Busse, 2012).
Summary of Case Study
The ever increasingly high incidence of breast cancer conditions has posed serious challenges in the nursing profession. Provision of appropriate healthcare to the cancer patients has been lacking leading to adverse effects of the proliferation of cancerous cells which further worsen the conditions of the patients. As primary care, clinicians have the responsibility to stressing providing healthcare services within healthcare facilities as well as monitoring treatment in home based facilities to help manage cancer condition. Most cancer patient need clinicians who practice evidence-based clinical practices (Riva, Malik, Burnie, Endicott, & Busse, 2012).
Research Question
In cancer patients receiving chemotherapy, will they have better white blood cell count monitoring with a follow-up at home versus follow-up at a health care facility during their treatment?
PICOT Format
1) P-Population: Patients aged 18-60 years-old, breast cancer who have not received chemotherapy in the past six months are subjected to the treatment. Patients with other serious health conditions such as heart diseases were excluded in the study. 30 patients, with 15patients stationed at the healthcare facility while the other 15 patients receiving home-based care, are expected to take part in the study.
2) I -Intervention: The patients will receive dosage based on the age, sex and health general body health as well as the stage of cancer cells proliferation in the body. The patients are required take the prescribed drugs at regular intervals. The subjects will be subjected to treatment under the same during the research study.
3) C-Comparison: All the subject regardless of variations in their level of dose requirement will be subjected to the same treatment for the same duration, 3months. Standardized treatment will be given to subjects with no extreme variations in their level of dose requirement and would be used as an active control group. Using this strategy, it will be possible to minimize the non-specific effects due to a group of the patient receiving treatment within the healthcare.
4) O-Outcome: The response in chemotherapy treatments will be check by examining the numbers of defective cancerous cells in the body tissues. The patients will report to the theatre in order to be examined by an oncologist. The results will be recorded i ...

Comprehensive Assessment Part Two: Outcomes and Reflection
Outcome 1
In this course, I have done extensive research about several nursing and science-based theories and how these theories can be applied in solving a nursing problem. The problem that needed a solution in this course was chronic non-cancer pain. In this course, I was able to demonstrate how nursing theories can be integrated into efforts to solve chronic non-cancer pain, which happens to be an old-age problem in nursing practice. In particular, I demonstrated how the biopsychosocial model of chronic pain is applied to the management of chronic non-cancer pain. The model provided a clear framework for steps that needs to be taken to manage chronic non-cancer effectively.
Of particular importance was the application of the model in determining factors that determine the speed at which one recovers from chronic non-cancer pain. Some of the factors that I described using the model included coping strategies, distress, illness, and physical dysfunction (Kaiser et al., 2013). Given the multiple factors that determine the speed of recovery from chronic non-cancer pain, it is arguable that it is not possible to manage this problem using a single intervention. The biopsychosocial model of chronic pain came in handy in describing the “cycle of pain”, given the fact that an individual develops pain due to interaction of factors such biological, psychological, and social factors (Kaiser et al., 2013). Explaining the interaction of the aforementioned factors helped in deriving sense from the fact that people who develop chronic pain are unable to engage in social and occupational activities. It also became evident that other factors such as depression and isolation contribute immensely to the exacerbation of pain symptoms.
The Biopsychosocial model of chronic pain was also useful in my course because it helped me in researching deeply on treatment of chronic non-cancer pain. By applying the model, it was possible to gain a deeper understanding of the interaction among different factors that contribute to the exacerbation of chronic non-cancer pain symptoms. Fundamentally, the model was quite useful in understanding that pain has a negative impact on emotions of an individual when it persists. Patients start developing negative beliefs about the negative effects of chronic non-cancer pain (Kaiser et al., 2013). Basing on this information, it was possible to choose pain management approaches that only relieve the pain but also change the negative beliefs that patients develop about pain.
I will apply what I have learnt from this course to my DPI project by researching about .

Grant Proposal-Assessing the role of stigma towards mental health patients in help seeking
Study problem
There are several studies that have shown that stigmatization towards mental health patients have been present throughout history and even despite the evolution in modern medicine and advanced treatment. For example, Verhaeghe et al., (2014), captures in a publication in reference to a study that he conducted that stigmatization towards mental health patients has been there even as early is in the 18th Century. People were hesitant to interact with people termed or perceived to have mental health conditions.
Stigmatization has resulted from the belief that those with mental problem are aggressive and dangerous creating a social distance (Szeto et al., 2017). Also, mental health-related stigma has become of major concern as it creates crucial barriers to access treatment and quality care since it not only influences the behaviour of the patients but also the attitude of the providers hence impacting help-seeking. Timmermann, Uhrenfeldt and Birkelund (2014), have identified stigma as a barrier that is of significance to care or help seeking while the extent to which it still remains a barrier have not been reviewed deeply. Therefore, this study will assess the role contributed by stigma in help seeking in depth. 1. Purpose
The intention of the research study is to review the association between stigma, mental illness and help seeking in order to formulate ways in which the stigma that is around mental health is done away with to enable as many people suffering from mental health complications to seek medical help.2. Background
Mental health is crucial in every stage of life. It is defined as the state of psychological well-being whereby the individual realizes a satisfactory integration instinctual drive acceptable to both oneself and his or her social setting (Ritchie & Roser, 2018). The status of mental health influences physical health, relationships, and most importantly day-to-day life. Mental health problems arise when there is a ...

Overview
Develop a 4–6-page position about a specific health care issue as it relates to a target vulnerable population. Include an analysis of existing evidence and position papers to help support your position. Your analysis should also present and respond to one or more opposing viewpoints.
Note
: Each assessment in this course builds on the work you completed in the previous assessment. Therefore, you must complete the assessments in this course in the order in which they are presented.
Position papers are a method to evaluate the most current evidence and policies related to health care issues. They offer a way for researchers to explore the views of any number of organizations around a topic. This can help you to develop your own position and approach to care around a topic or issue.
This assessment will focus on analyzing position papers about an issue related to addiction, chronicity, emotional and mental health, genetics and genomics, or immunity. Many of these topics are quickly evolving as technology advances, or as we attempt to push past stigmas. For example, technology advances and DNA sequencing provide comprehensive information to allow treatment to become more targeted and effective for the individual. However as a result, nurses must be able to understand and teach patients about the impact of this information. With this great power comes concerns that patient conditions are protected in an ethical and compassionate manner.
By successfully completing this assessment, you will demonstrate your proficiency in the following course competencies and assessment criteria:
Competency 1: Design evidence-based advanced nursing care for achieving high-quality population outcomes.
Evaluate the evidence and positions of others that could support a team's approach to improving the quality and outcomes of care for a specific issue in a target population.
Evaluate the evidence and positions of others that are contrary to a team's approach to improving the quality and outcomes of care for a specific issue in a target population.
Competency 2: Evaluate the efficiency and effectiveness of interprofessional interventions in achieving desired population health outcomes.
Explain the role of the interprofessional team in facilitating improvements for a specific issue in a target population.
Competency 3: Analyze population health outcomes in terms of their implications for health policy advocacy.
Explain a position with regard to health outcomes for a specific issue in a target population.
Competency 4: Communicate effectively with diverse audiences, in an appropriate form and style, consistent with organizational, professional, and scholarly standards.
Communicate an initial viewpoint regarding a specific issue in a target population and a synthesis of existing positions in a logically structured and concise manner, writing content clearly with correct use of grammar, punctuation, and spelling.

Opening Post_Julie
On a daily basis, healthcare providers are faced with an array of clinical decisions to be made in an efficient and timely manner. Translating evidence into best practices is one way to achieve this. Without current best evidence, practice is rapidly outdated, often to the detriment of the patient. Evidence based practice is the conscientious use of current best practice in making decisions about patient care (Sackett, Richardson, Rosenberg, & Hayes, 2000). It is important for health care professionals to ask questions about their current clinical practice. In this week’s threaded discussion you will ask that burning question that you ask in your daily care of your patients.
You’ll need to focus on asking the right questions, narrowing the questions to one that is nurse driven and the need for change is evident. The question that you formulate will be the question for your Capstone Project.
The process of reviewing scholarly articles for a change in practice is an important part of the development of any type of research project that can lead to a change in practice. As you are appraising the systematic review and other scholarly articles for your change project, think about areas of the article such as sample size, the population, type of study, discussion and limitations. Critiquing a research article will allow you to evaluate the scientific merit of the study and decide how the results may be useful in practice.

Service Report Coursework
Weighting: 60%
Word count: 2400 words (+/- 10%)
Deadline:
Monday 9th January 2023, 1pm
Assignment Rationale
The Service Report is designed to replicate the type of task psychology graduates are often asked to perform in a range of employment settings. For example, Assistant Psychologists and Trainee Clinical and Counselling Psychologists frequently undertake such reports to help psychological services make evidence-based decisions about treatments options. Psychology graduates are valued members of such teams, due to their skills in critical evaluation of the literature and ability to apply findings to a particular setting or population.
The coursework aims to test your breadth of knowledge of two interventions (LO2), critical evaluation and literature review skills (LO3), knowledge of clinical applications and limitations of therapies (LO4), and ability to reflect on the cultural context of mind-body therapies (LO5).
Instructions
You are working in an NHS psychological therapies service in an ethnically diverse area of London, however the service has noticed that patients from marginalised ethnic groups are under-represented in the patient numbers. Consultation with local community groups and existing patients suggests that a choice of a mind-body therapy, alongside the standard talking therapy currently offered would be welcomed. You have been asked by your Service Manager to investigate
two suitable mind-body therapies and to write a report on these so that the service can determine which therapy to offer to its patients.
You have been asked to 1) describe what the interventions are (as no one in the service has much knowledge of such therapies) 2) explain the ways that the therapies claim to increase wellbeing; 3) review the literature on the two therapies, and to report on their effectiveness; 4) try out at least one of the therapies yourself and 5) provide a final recommendation about which intervention you think should be offered to the patients.
Guidance
To approach this task, you should first choose:
1)
One of the following services to imagine that you are working in:
i. A service for young people with eating disorders
ii. A service for adults who have chronic pain
iii. A service for adults experiencing drug and/or alcohol addiction
iv. A service for older adults with common mental health problems such as depression and anxiety
2) The two mind-body therapies that you will write the report on.
3) The one therapy to try out and reflect upon.
Please note: You are unable to use the intervention you presented in the Debate, as one of your interventions for the Service Report. However, you may use interventions that other Debate group members used.
Within your report you should include the following sections, with headings:
·

Evidence-Based Practices & Nursing
Introduction
Normally, PICOT format is helpful in formulation of questions in an evidenced based clinical practice. PICOT generated questions generally fall under for main categories of clinical practices. These include; therapy, prevention, diagnosis, etiology as well as Prognosis. The essential elements in PICOT questions. The PICOT format is valuable in addressing research questions comprehensively. Five elements are normally addressed including; population, intervention, comparison, outcome and time as well (Riva, Malik, Burnie, Endicott, & Busse, 2012).
Summary of Case Study
The ever increasingly high incidence of breast cancer conditions has posed serious challenges in the nursing profession. Provision of appropriate healthcare to the cancer patients has been lacking leading to adverse effects of the proliferation of cancerous cells which further worsen the conditions of the patients. As primary care, clinicians have the responsibility to stressing providing healthcare services within healthcare facilities as well as monitoring treatment in home based facilities to help manage cancer condition. Most cancer patient need clinicians who practice evidence-based clinical practices (Riva, Malik, Burnie, Endicott, & Busse, 2012).
Research Question
In cancer patients receiving chemotherapy, will they have better white blood cell count monitoring with a follow-up at home versus follow-up at a health care facility during their treatment?
PICOT Format
1) P-Population: Patients aged 18-60 years-old, breast cancer who have not received chemotherapy in the past six months are subjected to the treatment. Patients with other serious health conditions such as heart diseases were excluded in the study. 30 patients, with 15patients stationed at the healthcare facility while the other 15 patients receiving home-based care, are expected to take part in the study.
2) I -Intervention: The patients will receive dosage based on the age, sex and health general body health as well as the stage of cancer cells proliferation in the body. The patients are required take the prescribed drugs at regular intervals. The subjects will be subjected to treatment under the same during the research study.
3) C-Comparison: All the subject regardless of variations in their level of dose requirement will be subjected to the same treatment for the same duration, 3months. Standardized treatment will be given to subjects with no extreme variations in their level of dose requirement and would be used as an active control group. Using this strategy, it will be possible to minimize the non-specific effects due to a group of the patient receiving treatment within the healthcare.
4) O-Outcome: The response in chemotherapy treatments will be check by examining the numbers of defective cancerous cells in the body tissues. The patients will report to the theatre in order to be examined by an oncologist. The results will be recorded i ...

Comprehensive Assessment Part Two: Outcomes and Reflection
Outcome 1
In this course, I have done extensive research about several nursing and science-based theories and how these theories can be applied in solving a nursing problem. The problem that needed a solution in this course was chronic non-cancer pain. In this course, I was able to demonstrate how nursing theories can be integrated into efforts to solve chronic non-cancer pain, which happens to be an old-age problem in nursing practice. In particular, I demonstrated how the biopsychosocial model of chronic pain is applied to the management of chronic non-cancer pain. The model provided a clear framework for steps that needs to be taken to manage chronic non-cancer effectively.
Of particular importance was the application of the model in determining factors that determine the speed at which one recovers from chronic non-cancer pain. Some of the factors that I described using the model included coping strategies, distress, illness, and physical dysfunction (Kaiser et al., 2013). Given the multiple factors that determine the speed of recovery from chronic non-cancer pain, it is arguable that it is not possible to manage this problem using a single intervention. The biopsychosocial model of chronic pain came in handy in describing the “cycle of pain”, given the fact that an individual develops pain due to interaction of factors such biological, psychological, and social factors (Kaiser et al., 2013). Explaining the interaction of the aforementioned factors helped in deriving sense from the fact that people who develop chronic pain are unable to engage in social and occupational activities. It also became evident that other factors such as depression and isolation contribute immensely to the exacerbation of pain symptoms.
The Biopsychosocial model of chronic pain was also useful in my course because it helped me in researching deeply on treatment of chronic non-cancer pain. By applying the model, it was possible to gain a deeper understanding of the interaction among different factors that contribute to the exacerbation of chronic non-cancer pain symptoms. Fundamentally, the model was quite useful in understanding that pain has a negative impact on emotions of an individual when it persists. Patients start developing negative beliefs about the negative effects of chronic non-cancer pain (Kaiser et al., 2013). Basing on this information, it was possible to choose pain management approaches that only relieve the pain but also change the negative beliefs that patients develop about pain.
I will apply what I have learnt from this course to my DPI project by researching about .

Grant Proposal-Assessing the role of stigma towards mental health patients in help seeking
Study problem
There are several studies that have shown that stigmatization towards mental health patients have been present throughout history and even despite the evolution in modern medicine and advanced treatment. For example, Verhaeghe et al., (2014), captures in a publication in reference to a study that he conducted that stigmatization towards mental health patients has been there even as early is in the 18th Century. People were hesitant to interact with people termed or perceived to have mental health conditions.
Stigmatization has resulted from the belief that those with mental problem are aggressive and dangerous creating a social distance (Szeto et al., 2017). Also, mental health-related stigma has become of major concern as it creates crucial barriers to access treatment and quality care since it not only influences the behaviour of the patients but also the attitude of the providers hence impacting help-seeking. Timmermann, Uhrenfeldt and Birkelund (2014), have identified stigma as a barrier that is of significance to care or help seeking while the extent to which it still remains a barrier have not been reviewed deeply. Therefore, this study will assess the role contributed by stigma in help seeking in depth. 1. Purpose
The intention of the research study is to review the association between stigma, mental illness and help seeking in order to formulate ways in which the stigma that is around mental health is done away with to enable as many people suffering from mental health complications to seek medical help.2. Background
Mental health is crucial in every stage of life. It is defined as the state of psychological well-being whereby the individual realizes a satisfactory integration instinctual drive acceptable to both oneself and his or her social setting (Ritchie & Roser, 2018). The status of mental health influences physical health, relationships, and most importantly day-to-day life. Mental health problems arise when there is a ...

Risk Assessment Plan: Purpose does not make reference to BRI at all. Provide context. Scope, assumptions and constraints appear reasonable, but you can add an assumption or constraint regarding budget.
Need to elaborate on how risk is determine using the qualitative approach.
1. Title
IT Security Risk Assessment
2. Introduction
You are employed with Government Security Consultants, a subsidiary of Largo Corporation. As a member of IT security consultant team, one of your responsibilities is to ensure the security of assets as well as provide a secure environment for customers, partners and employees. You and the team play a key role in defining, implementing and maintaining the IT security strategy in organizations.
A government agency called the Bureau of Research and Intelligence (BRI) is tasked with gathering and analyzing information to support U.S. diplomats.
In a series of New York Times articles, BRI was exposed as being the victim of several security breaches. As a follow up, the United States Government Accountability Office (GAO) conducted a comprehensive review of the agency’s information security controls and identified numerous issues.
The head of the agency has contracted your company to conduct an IT security risk assessment on its operations. This risk assessment was determined to be necessary to address security gaps in the agency’s critical operational areas and to determine actions to close those gaps. It is also meant to ensure that the agency invests time and money in the right areas and does not waste resources. After conducting the assessment, you are to develop a final report that summarizes the findings and provides a set of recommendations. You are to convince the agency to implement your recommendations.
This learning activity focuses on IT security which is an overarching concern that involves practically all facets of an organization’s activities. You will learn about the key steps of preparing for and conducting a security risk assessment and how to present the findings to leaders and convince them into taking appropriate action.
Understanding security capabilities is basic to the core knowledge, skills, and abilities that IT personnel are expected to possess. Information security is a significant concern among every organization and it may spell success or failure of its mission. Effective IT professionals are expected to be up-to-date on trends in IT security, current threats and vulnerabilities, state-of-the-art security safeguards, and security policies and procedures. IT professionals must be able to communicate effectively (oral and written) to executive level management in a non-jargon, executive .

1. Prof. Lennart Van der Zeil’s theorem says that any programming language is
complete
if it can be used to write a program to compute any computable number.
a. What is a computable number?
b. What is a non-computable number?
c. If all existing programming languages are complete why do we need more than one?
2. Two methodologies are used to transform programs written in a
source language
(also known as a
programmer-oriented language
, or a horizontal language, or a high-level language) into a
target language
(also known as a machine language, or a vertical language, or a low-level language). There is a static method called
translation
and a dynamic method called
interpretation
. Yet FORTRAN while 98% static ., uses interpretation for the Formatted I/O statement, similarly COBOL uses interpretation for the MOVE and MOVE CORRESPONDING statements; on the other hand, Java is fully interpretative except that in some programs and certain data sets it may invoke a JIT (Just In Time) compiler to execute a bit of static code
. Why do language designers mix these modalities if either is complete?
Hint: This is a long question with a short answer.
3. C and C++ store numerical arrays (matrices) in
row major
order and each index range must begin with 0; whereas FORTRAN stores arrays in
column major
order and the (default) index range starts (almost always) with 1. Engineers and scientists are often faced with the problem of converting a working program, or much more often a subroutine, from one language to another. Unfortunately, due to the index range difference (0 to n-1) in C/C++ and (1 to N) in FORTRAN, viewing one array as simply the transpose of the other will not suffice. What steps would you take to convert such a subroutine to compute the product of two matrices A(N,M) and B(M,N) to produce C(N,N) from FORTRAN to C++?
4. What was the major reason Jim Gosling invented Java? Did he succeed?
5. What are the four major features of C++ that were eliminated in Java? Why were they taken out? Why do we not miss them?
6. What was Kim Polese’ role at SUN Microsystems and why did she think Java should be positioned as a general purpose computer programming language? How did she accomplish this truly incredible feat, not done since Captain (later Admiral) Grace Murray Hopper, USN standardized COBOL in the early 1960s.
7. Describe briefly the role of women in the development of computer programming and computer programming languages. (Ada Lovelace, Betty Holberton, Grace Hopper, Mandaly Grems, Kim Polese, Laura Lemay)
8. What are the pros and cons of overloaded operators in C++? Java has only one, what is it?

1. Review the results of your assessment using the explanation below.
2. Write at least 200 words describing the results, how you learn best, and how you will modify your study techniques to fit your learning style.
What do the results mean? Barbara Soloman, Coordinator of Advising, First Year College, North Carolina State University explains:
· Active Learners: tend to retain and understand information best by doing something active with it like discussing or explaining it to others. They enjoy group work.
· Reflective Learners: prefer to think about it quietly first. They prefer to work alone.
· Sensing Learners: tend to like learning facts. They are patient with details and good at memorizing things. They are practical and careful.
· Intuitive Learners: prefer discovering possibilities and relationships. They are good at grasping new concepts and are comfortable with abstractions and mathematical formulations. They are innovative and creative.
· Visual Learners: remember best what they see--pictures, diagrams, flowcharts, timelines, films, and demonstrations.
· Verbal Learners: get more out of words--written and spoken explanations. Everyone learns more when information is presented both visually and verbally.
· Sequential Learners: tend to gain understanding in linear steps, with each step following logically from the previous one. They follow logical steps when finding solutions.
· Global Learners: Global learners tend to learn in large jumps, absorbing material almost randomly without seeing connections, and then suddenly "getting it." They may be able to solve complex problems quickly or put things together in novel ways once they have grasped the big picture, but they may have difficulty explaining how they did it.

Embracing GenAI - A Strategic ImperativePeter Windle
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.

The Roman Empire A Historical Colossus.pdfkaushalkr1407
The Roman Empire, a vast and enduring power, stands as one of history's most remarkable civilizations, leaving an indelible imprint on the world. It emerged from the Roman Republic, transitioning into an imperial powerhouse under the leadership of Augustus Caesar in 27 BCE. This transformation marked the beginning of an era defined by unprecedented territorial expansion, architectural marvels, and profound cultural influence.
The empire's roots lie in the city of Rome, founded, according to legend, by Romulus in 753 BCE. Over centuries, Rome evolved from a small settlement to a formidable republic, characterized by a complex political system with elected officials and checks on power. However, internal strife, class conflicts, and military ambitions paved the way for the end of the Republic. Julius Caesar’s dictatorship and subsequent assassination in 44 BCE created a power vacuum, leading to a civil war. Octavian, later Augustus, emerged victorious, heralding the Roman Empire’s birth.
Under Augustus, the empire experienced the Pax Romana, a 200-year period of relative peace and stability. Augustus reformed the military, established efficient administrative systems, and initiated grand construction projects. The empire's borders expanded, encompassing territories from Britain to Egypt and from Spain to the Euphrates. Roman legions, renowned for their discipline and engineering prowess, secured and maintained these vast territories, building roads, fortifications, and cities that facilitated control and integration.
The Roman Empire’s society was hierarchical, with a rigid class system. At the top were the patricians, wealthy elites who held significant political power. Below them were the plebeians, free citizens with limited political influence, and the vast numbers of slaves who formed the backbone of the economy. The family unit was central, governed by the paterfamilias, the male head who held absolute authority.
Culturally, the Romans were eclectic, absorbing and adapting elements from the civilizations they encountered, particularly the Greeks. Roman art, literature, and philosophy reflected this synthesis, creating a rich cultural tapestry. Latin, the Roman language, became the lingua franca of the Western world, influencing numerous modern languages.
Roman architecture and engineering achievements were monumental. They perfected the arch, vault, and dome, constructing enduring structures like the Colosseum, Pantheon, and aqueducts. These engineering marvels not only showcased Roman ingenuity but also served practical purposes, from public entertainment to water supply.

Evidence–Based Health Evaluation and Application
Introduction
Public health improvement initiatives (PHII) provide invaluable
data for patient–centered care, but their research is often
conducted in a context
different from the needs of any individual patient. Providers
must make a conscious effort to apply their findings to specific
patients' care.
In this activity, you will learn about a PHII, and explore its
application to a particular patient's care plan.

Good morning!
At last week's conference I spoke with Alicia Balewa, Director
of Safe Headspace. They're a relatively new nonprofit working
2. on improving outcomes
for TBI patients, and I immediately thought of Mr. Nowak. At
his last biannual cholesterol screening he mentioned having
trouble with his balance. This
may be related to his hypertension, but he believes it's related to
the time he was hospitalized many years ago after falling out of
a tree, and
expressed distress that this might be the beginning of a rapid
decline.
Ms. Balewa will be on premises next week, and I'd like to set
aside some time for you to talk.

Overview
Interview Alicia Balewa to find out more about a public health
improvement initiative that might apply to Mr. Nowak's care.
Interview:
I have a patient who might benefit from some of the
interventions for TBI and PTSD
you recently studied. What populations did your public health
improvement initiative
study?

dHealthEvaluation/transcript.html
My father came home from Vietnam with a kaleidoscope of
mental health problems. That was the 1970s, when treatment
options for things like PTSD,
TBI, and even depression were very different. Since then there
has been a lot of investment in treatment and recovery for
combat veterans. That's
excellent news for veterans in treatment now, but they're not
looking at my dad, and how his TBI and PTSD have affected
him through mid–life and
now as a senior. That's why I started Safe Headspace: to focus
on older patients who are years or decades past their trauma,
and find ways to help
them.
Which treatments showed the strongest improvement?
Exercise. We were able to persuade about half of our
participants — that's around 400 people, mostly men ages 45–80
— to follow the CDC's
recommendations for moderate aerobic exercise. Almost
everyone showed improvement in mood, memory, and muscle
control after four weeks. After
that a lot of participants dropped out, which is disappointing.
But of the 75 who stuck with it for another three months,
muscle control improved 15%,
mood improved 22%, and short–to–medium term memory
improved 61%. We didn't specify what kind of exercise, but we
did ask them to record
what they did every week, so that data is available.
4. Second was medication and therapy. Most of our participants
didn't receive any kind of psychotherapy in the years
immediately following their
trauma, so we had everyone assessed by a team of
psychotherapists. As a result of those assessments, 40% of
participants started on anti–
depressant medication and 9% started taking anti–psychotics.
Those who started taking medications now have regular contact
with a therapist to
manage that care. With some help at home to stick to the
regimen, all but a few have successfully followed their
treatment plans. They've reported a
26% improvement in mood over six months, and a 6%
improvement in memory.
The third treatment I want to mention is meditation. We only
had a small group interested in trying it, but the results were
dramatic. We prescribed
daily meditation at home, just 10 to 15 minutes, with a weekly
hour–long guided group meditation for all 23 participants. After
three weeks we lost two
to disinterest, but the other 21 showed improvements of over
70% in mood and memory, and 32% in muscle control.
Have you tried anything that hasn't worked?
Sure. There are memory exercises for patients in elderly care,
and things like Sudoku and crossword puzzles. We didn't see
any gains with those.
Some of our participants preferred strength training to aerobic
exercise, and the only improvement we saw in that group was in
muscle control, but
only 4%, which is significantly less than the aerobic group.
I should also say that we were working with a willing group of
5. participants. They knew they needed help, and were motivated
to get it. One of the
hurdles we see with veterans, especially in older generations, is
an unwillingness to acknowledge that they have a problem. We
haven't had to wrestle
with that because everyone who volunteers to participate wants
to be there.
Your organization is intervening with people who have TBI and
PTSD simultaneously.
We have a patient with moderate TBI suffered almost 40 years
ago, but no history of
PTSD. Have you separated your population and studied each
separately?
We haven't, no. In some cases we could, for those who come in
with previous diagnoses and medical records. But we have
participants who either
weren't diagnosed, were under–diagnosed at the time, or don't
have records to show us.
Conclusion
As you've seen, a PHII can apply to a patient under your care.
But it's not always a perfect fit, and it's
important to think carefully about how your patient's condition,
symptoms, background, and experience
compare to that of participants in a PHII.

Overview
Write a report on the application of population health
improvement initiative outcomes to patient-centered care, based
on information presented in an interactive multimedia scenario.
In this assessment, you have an opportunity to apply the tenets
of evidence-based practice in both patient-centered care and
7. population health improvement contexts. You will be challenged
to think critically, evaluate what the evidence suggests is an
appropriate approach to personalizing patient care, and
determine what aspects of the approach could be applied to
similar situations and patients.
By successfully completing this assessment, you will
demonstrate your proficiency in the following course
competencies and assessment criteria:

Assessment Instructions
Preparation
In this assessment, you will base your Patient-Centered Care
Report on the scenario presented in the Evidence-Based Health
Evaluation and Application media piece. Some of the writing
you completed and exported from the media piece should serve
as pre-writing for this assessment and inform the final draft of
your report. Even though the media piece presented only one
type of care setting, you can extrapolate individualized care
decisions, based on population health improvement initiative
outcomes, to other settings.
Requirements
Note: The requirements outlined below correspond to the
grading criteria in the scoring guide, so be sure to address each
point. In addition, you may want to review the performance
level descriptions for each criterion to see how your work will
be assessed.
Writing, Supporting Evidence, and APA Style
· Write clearly and logically, using correct grammar and
mechanics.
· Integrate relevant evidence from 3–5 current scholarly or
professional sources to support your evaluation,
recommendations, and plans.
. Apply correct APA formatting to all in-text citations and
9. references.
. Attach a reference list to your report.
Report Content
Address the following points in a 4 page report:
· Evaluate the expected outcomes of the population health
improvement initiative that were, and were not, achieved.
. Describe the outcomes that were achieved, their positive
effects on the community's health, and any variance across
demographic groups.
. Describe the outcomes that were not achieved, the extent to
which they fell short of expectations, and any variance across
demographic groups.
. Identify the factors (for example: institutional, community,
environmental, resources, communication) that may have
contributed to any achievement shortfalls.
· Propose a strategy for improving the outcomes of the
population health improvement initiative, or ensuring that all
outcomes are being addressed, based on the best available
evidence.
. Describe the corrective measures you would take to address
the factors that may have contributed to achievement shortfalls.
. Cite the evidence (from similar projects, research, or
professional organization resources) that supports the corrective
measures you are proposing.
. Explain how the evidence illustrates the likelihood of
improved outcomes if your proposed strategy is enacted
· Develop an approach to personalizing patient care that
incorporates lessons learned from the population health
improvement initiative outcomes.
. Explain how the outcomes and lessons learned informed the
decisions you made in your approach for personalizing care for
the patient with a health condition related to the population
health concern addressed in the improvement initiative.
. Ensure that your approach to personalizing care for the
individual patient addresses the patient's:
. Individual health needs.
10. . Economic and environmental realities.
. Culture and family.
· Incorporate the best available evidence (from both the
population health improvement initiative and other relevant
sources) to inform your approach and actions you intend to take.
· Justify the value and relevance of evidence you used to
support your approach to personalizing care for your patient.
· Explain why your evidence is valuable and relevant to your
patient's case.
· Explain why each piece of evidence is appropriate for both the
health issue you are trying to correct and for the unique
situation of your patient and their family.
· Propose a framework for evaluating the outcomes of your
approach to personalizing patient care.
· Ensure that your framework includes measurable criteria that
are relevant to your desired outcomes.
· Explain why the criteria are appropriate and useful measures
of success.
· Identify the specific aspects of your approach that are most
likely to be transferable to other individual cases.
