Practice
Effective pain and symptom management is an important part of patients with life-threatening diseases and their families. Reducing pain and other symptoms does not only provide relief to suffering patients but will also eases the grief that families will face after the patient’s death (Sun et al., 2015). Nurses play a huge role in reversing the treatment of pain and other associated symptoms and should therefore possess basic competencies in the management of symptoms. To achieve quality outcomes, nurses need to use patients and family fears together with the knowledge and skills regarding symptom management using pharmacological, nonpharmacological, and integrative therapies (Paice et al., 2018).
Education
Nurses need to learn about the seriously ill , other vulnerable populations and the required prioritization. According to the American Nurses Association (2017), Content about palliative care should be included in any curricula including the academic and development settings. Nurses also need to utilize palliative care learning materials as provided by nursing organizations and agencies.
Research
Given that healthcare resources are limited, it is important that end of life care is evidence-based rather than solemnly based on the provider’s intuition. Chronically ill patients deserve quality, person-centered and evidenced-based care whether they are at the home, hospital, or any other facility. Evidence-based interventions help guide nurses in their choices of the most appropriate treatment plan (Black et al., 2015). Research also helps nurses highlight and be aware of the potential benefits and harms and make informed decisions based on the expected outcomes (Black et al., 2015).
Administration
An unhealthy work environment can lead to medical errors, conflicts and stress among healthcare teams, and ineffective care delivery (AACN, 2016). Due to these reasons, healthcare providers need to promote a healthcare environment that will benefit both the patient and the family. The goal is to provide quality care and leave the patient and family members fully satisfied.

Introduction
Since the release of the 2008 APRN Consensus
Model: Licensure, Accreditation, Certification,
and Education, the nurse practitioner (NP)
community has been undertaking efforts to
ensure congruence with the model. Within
education, NP programs have focused on
changes to align educational tracks with the
NP populations delineated in the model.
National organizations have supported
these efforts through collaborative work on
the NP competencies that guide curriculum
development. In 2011, a multi-organizational
task force embarked on the challenge to
identify competencies for many of the NP
population foci: Family/Across the Lifespan,
Neonatal, Pediatric Acute Care, Pediatric
Primary Care, Psychiatric-Mental Health, and
Women’s Health/Gender-Related. Although
there had previously been developed adult-
gerontology competencies in acute care and
primary care, those competencies were set
within a previous framework of domains.
This document presents the updated adult-
gerontology acute care and primary care NP
competencies within the same framework as
the other population-foci NP competencies
document. These competencies explicate the
unique characteristics and role of the adult-
gerontology population focus in acute care and
primary care and are designed to augment the
NP core competencies.
Background
The National Organization of Nurse Practitioner
Faculties (NONPF) released the first set of core
competencies for all nurse practitioners in 1990
and subsequently has revised them in 1995,

June 3, 2024 Anti-Semitism Letter Sent to MIT President Kornbluth and MIT Cor...Levi Shapiro
Letter from the Congress of the United States regarding Anti-Semitism sent June 3rd to MIT President Sally Kornbluth, MIT Corp Chair, Mark Gorenberg
Dear Dr. Kornbluth and Mr. Gorenberg,
The US House of Representatives is deeply concerned by ongoing and pervasive acts of antisemitic
harassment and intimidation at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT). Failing to act decisively to ensure a safe learning environment for all students would be a grave dereliction of your responsibilities as President of MIT and Chair of the MIT Corporation.
This Congress will not stand idly by and allow an environment hostile to Jewish students to persist. The House believes that your institution is in violation of Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, and the inability or
unwillingness to rectify this violation through action requires accountability.
Postsecondary education is a unique opportunity for students to learn and have their ideas and beliefs challenged. However, universities receiving hundreds of millions of federal funds annually have denied
students that opportunity and have been hijacked to become venues for the promotion of terrorism, antisemitic harassment and intimidation, unlawful encampments, and in some cases, assaults and riots.
The House of Representatives will not countenance the use of federal funds to indoctrinate students into hateful, antisemitic, anti-American supporters of terrorism. Investigations into campus antisemitism by the Committee on Education and the Workforce and the Committee on Ways and Means have been expanded into a Congress-wide probe across all relevant jurisdictions to address this national crisis. The undersigned Committees will conduct oversight into the use of federal funds at MIT and its learning environment under authorities granted to each Committee.
• The Committee on Education and the Workforce has been investigating your institution since December 7, 2023. The Committee has broad jurisdiction over postsecondary education, including its compliance with Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, campus safety concerns over disruptions to the learning environment, and the awarding of federal student aid under the Higher Education Act.
• The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is investigating the sources of funding and other support flowing to groups espousing pro-Hamas propaganda and engaged in antisemitic harassment and intimidation of students. The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is the principal oversight committee of the US House of Representatives and has broad authority to investigate “any matter” at “any time” under House Rule X.
• The Committee on Ways and Means has been investigating several universities since November 15, 2023, when the Committee held a hearing entitled From Ivory Towers to Dark Corners: Investigating the Nexus Between Antisemitism, Tax-Exempt Universities, and Terror Financing. The Committee followed the hearing with letters to those institutions on January 10, 202
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.

RN experience may be a plus as background support, but does NOT expand APRN SOP--RN
didn’t make diagnoses or directly order medical interventions/radiology diagnostic test/lab.
NP residency or fellowship or specialty certification…does NOT expand APRN SOP but may
establish depth of expertise
Preparation cannot replace educational preparation in the role or one of the six population foci.
Preparation can not expand one’s scope of practice beyond the role or population focus.
