Ethical Issues With an Aging Population According to the CDC, “in the United States, the proportion of the population aged > 65 years is projected to increase from 12.4% in 2000 to 19.6% in 2030,” (CDC, 2003, para. 2). Caring for this aging population is going to be one of the greatest challenges facing the health care industry. Not only will the number of individuals requiring care rise, but so will the cost. As poignantly stated by Crippen and Barnato, “unless we change the practice of medicine and reduce future costs, and explicitly address the ethical dilemmas we face, there may come a time when our kids simply cannot afford us” (2011, p. 128). In this Discussion, you will examine the ethical issues that the United States and other nations must address when faced with the health care challenges of an aging population. To prepare: Consider the ethical aspects of health care and health policy for an aging population. Review the Hayutin, Dietz, and Mitchell report presented in the Learning Resources. The authors pose the question, “What are the economic consequences, now and for future generations of taxpayers if we fail to adapt our policies to the changing reality of an older population?” (p. 21). Consider how you would respond to this question. In addition, reflect on the ethical decisions that arise when dispersing limited funds. Contemplate the impact of failing to adjust policy in accordance with the changing reality of an older population. Reflect on the ethical dilemmas that arise when determining expenditures on end-of-life health care. Post by Day 3 an explanation of the ethical standards you believe should be used in determining how resources should be allocated for an aging population and end-of-life care. Then, provide an analysis of the ethical challenges related to the preparation for the provision of such health care. References: Crippen, D., & Barnato, A. E. (2011).

Nurses as Health Advocates
Nurses as Health Advocates
What does it take to be an effective health advocate? As a nurse, you have many opportunities to advocate for patients and populations, whether formally or informally. Being an advocate involves more than knowing how to lobby or to whom to write letters. It requires passion and compassion, commitment and courage.
In this Discussion, you will consider the attributes of an effective advocate for population health and/or the nursing profession. You will analyze those attributes that help nurses be a powerful force in improving the quality of health care.
To prepare:
Review the article “On Being a Good Nurse: Reflections on the Past and Preparing for the Future” and “War, its aftermath, and U.S. health policy: Toward a comprehensive health program for America’s military personnel, veterans, and their families” found in this week’s Learning Resources.
Consider the multiple health care needs of returning veterans and their families.
Post by Day 3
t
wo types of health needs
returning veterans and their families might need. Identify two types of health needs returning veterans and their families might need. How might you advocate for the needs of this
population. What type of
advocacy skills would you need and how could you develop them. What responsibility does a nurse have to be an advocate?
Give specific examples

Continue on with building your final application due in week 10. You will submit one cogent paper that combines the previous two applications (Parts One and Two) from weeks 4 and 7, plus the new material mentioned in the week 8 application
Application: Developing a Health Advocacy Campaign
To be an effective advocate and to develop a successful health advocacy campaign, you must have a clear idea of the goals of your campaign program and be able to communicate those goals to others. In addition, it is the nature of nurses to want to help, but it is important to make sure that the vision you develop is manageable in size and scope. By researching what others have done, you will better appreciate what can realistically be accomplished. It is also wise to determine if others have similar goals and to work with these people to form strategic partnerships. If you begin your planning with a strong idea of your resources, assets, and capabilities, you will be much more likely to succeed and truly make a difference with those you hope to help.
You will develop a 10- to 12-page paper that outlines a health advocacy campaign designed to promote policies to improve the health of a population of your choice. This week, you will establish the framework for your campaign by identifying a population health concern of interest to you. You will then provide an overview of how you would approach advocating for this issue.
-In Week 9, you will consider legal and regulatory factors that have an impact on the issue and finally, in Week 10, you will identify ethical concerns that you could face as an advocate. Specific details for each aspect of this paper are provided each week.

NURS 6050C: Policy and Advocacy for Improving Population Health
INITIAL POST
Resource Allocation for an Aging Population
Technological advances in medicine and preventative care means that Americans are living longer lives than ever before. Hayutin, Deitz, and Mitchell (2010) assert that by the year 2030 Americans over the age of 65 will account for 20% of the population. There will soon be more elderly Americans than children, and the number of working adults is expected to decrease concurrently. This shift in the population will yield significant economic, political and social challenges. Healthcare needs are also changing. Death and disability rates are declining, yet the incidence of chronic illness within the elderly population continues to rise (Hayutin, Deitz, & Mitchell, 2010). Crippen and Barnato (2011) contend that 20% of the population assume 80% of all healthcare-related costs. As much as 75% of these costs are attributable to chronic diseases (Crippen & Barnato, 2011). Revenues for healthcare are projected to decrease while expenditures are expected to increase. Healthcare providers, policymakers, and industry experts need to work towards solutions that will optimize healthcare dollars and create sustainability for future generations.
Ethical Considerations
The dynamics of healthcare are complicated; financial resources seem insignificant when making life and death decisions. Nonetheless, resources are finite, and therefore, distribution and allocation of funds must be ethical. According to Craig (2010), the theory of distributive justice requires that people with the same health needs have equitable access to all available resources. However, distributive justice also requires that the associated costs also be shared equitably. Fairness is another ethical principle that should be applied in the allocation of healthcare resources. Policies that are fair must be transparent, understandable, and there must be regulatory process to address complaints and resolve conflicts. The idea that healthcare is a human right is outlined in the declaration of independence which guarantees citizens the right to life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness. The need of the patient should also be considered. A burn patient needs plastic surgery more than a patient that wants rhinoplasty (Craig, 2010).
Nurses provide the best possible care to every single patient regardless of gender, ethnicity, sexual orientation, ability to pay, or age. The American Nurses Association (2012) provides ethical guidelines for nurses to employ in their practice. Provisions one, two, and three promote the principle of beneficence, and the obligation nurses have to advocate for the best interests of their patients. Provisions seven, eight, and nine focus on providing social justice for clients through practice and policy (American Nurses Association, 2012). Nurses should also promote aut.

Article 1: Immigration as a Social Determinant of Health
Castañeda, H., Holmes, S. M., Madrigal, D. S., Young, M.-E. D., Beyeler, N., & Quesada, J.
(2015). Immigration as a Social Determinant of Health. Annual Review of Public
Health, 36(1), 375–392. doi: 10.1146/annurev-publhealth-032013-182419
Abstract
Although immigration and immigrant populations have become increasingly important foci in
public health research and practice, a social determinants of health approach has seldom been
applied in this area. Global patterns of morbidity and mortality follow inequities rooted in
societal, political, and economic conditions produced and reproduced by social structures,
policies, and institutions. The lack of dialogue between these two profoundly related
phenomena—social determinants of health and immigration—has resulted in missed
opportunities for public health research, practice, and policy work. In this article, we discuss
primary frameworks used in recent public health literature on the health of immigrant
populations, note gaps in this literature, and argue for a broader examination of immigration as
both socially determined and a social determinant of health. We discuss priorities for future
research and policy to understand more fully and respond appropriately to the health of the
populations affected by this global phenomenon.
Annotated Bibliography
The article reports on the importance of identifying social determinants and the effects of
socially determined structures among immigrant populations in the United States. The study
identifies ways in which immigrants health outcomes are based on biases due to using
3
information based on group behaviors instead of on an induvial case. The impact of migrant and
immigrant individuals, physical and mental health in these communities’ changes as social,
economic, and political policies take place. This article is helpful in that broadens the
immigration experience including more central factors than just language, income, or education
as the cause of all health related problems in this community. But to show factors of power
structures and the ability to put in place effective health interventions that respond to direct
causes of poor or declining health in these populations.

Week 2 Discussion 09-04-15
Case Study Analyses
A person’s health may be greatly impacted by his or her access to timely, appropriate care. Yet, in the United States, there are marked differences among the quality of services that are available and each individual’s use of those services. The cost of healthcare, for instance, can greatly influence a person’s decision to visit the doctor or fill a prescription. What other factors impact healthcare-related decisions? In this Discussion, you will read three case studies that illustrate dilemmas related to cost, quality, and access to healthcare, and consider the potential influence these can have on a person’s health, financial standing, and quality of life.
To prepare for this Discussion:
· Read the Week 2 Discussion Case Studies.
· Select one case study on which to focus for this Discussion.
· Review the information presented in the Resources, including Chapter 12 in the Shi and Singh (2015) course text and the two resources you selected.
· Reflect on your selected case study and consider the following questions:
· Which barriers in the U.S. healthcare delivery system related to cost, quality, and/or access are evident in the case study?
· How could these barriers be addressed?
· How does the use of insurance influence concerns or decisions related to cost, quality, and/or access to care for the person in this case study?

This research problem meets the litmus test because it is researchable and has not yet been studied comprehensively. It is an essential issue with potential implications for policy and justice. The research gap in this topic is that no existing research looks explicitly into the psychological effects of the death penalty in Texas. To better reveal this gap, further research can be conducted better to understand the psychological impacts of the death penalty. This research could include qualitative interviews with those affected by the death penalty in Texas, such as family members of those on death row, legal professionals, and mental health professionals (Paul & Criado, 2020).
In order to expertly respond to the qualitative checklist for Chapters 1 through 3, I will need to master a range of skills and subject matter areas. Most importantly, I will need to understand the research topic in depth, including the relevant literature, current debates, and potential implications. Additionally, I will need to become proficient in qualitative methods, such as conducting interviews, analyzing data, and writing results. Furthermore, I will need to thoroughly understand the research process, including creating a research question, developing a research design, and presenting the results (Paul & Criado, 2020).
To build upon the research conducted thus far, a research question I could develop throughout the rest of this course is: What are the psychological effects of the death penalty in Texas on those affected by it? This question could be explored through qualitative interviews with those affected by the death penalty in Texas. This could include the family members of those on death row, legal and mental health professionals. Through these interviews, I could gain insight into the psychological effects of the death penalty in Texas and how it has impacted those involved. This research could help inform better policies and practices related to the death penalty in Texas (Paul & Criado, 2020).

As stated in the course text,
Health Care Delivery in the United States
, “the health care enterprise is one of the most important parts of the U.S. social system and of our economic system as well” (Kovner and Knickman, 2011, p. 4); however, with millions of citizens uninsured, rising costs, massive health disparities, and the need to improve quality and access, many view health care as a broken system. As such, it continues to be a significant political issue in the United States. Most agree that something needs to be done to fix the health care system, but the methods and solutions for addressing problems vary greatly, particularly with respect to the role government should play. Proponents of varying approaches often have strong, emotional opinions, making compromise difficult.
In this Discussion, you will consider the role of government in health care, and you will examine the impact of a social, economic, technological, ethical, or legal issue on health care delivery.
To prepare:
With this week’s Learning Resources in mind, consider this question: Is health care a right or a privilege?
Review the media presentation for this week, focusing on the role of the government in health care.
Pinpoint a social, economic, technological, ethical, or legal issue that could, or has, affected health care delivery in the United States.
Locate a current article from the popular press (within the past 6 months) related to the health care issue you identified. How does this article inform your understanding of the influence of your selected issue in the health care debate?
Post by Day 3
your position on whether health care in the United States is a right or a privilege, and explain what you believe to be the proper role of government in health care. Justify your position. Explain how the social, economic, technological, ethical, or legal issue you selected is impacting health care delivery and whether this issue should be addressed by the government or by private entities. Identify the article you selected, and explain how this article informs your stance.

Policy Change Proposal Section II
Introduction
The proposed policy change is meant to improve the effectiveness of public laws and regulations and even give information on the public use of funds. Further, it will address the practices of the private sector employment that affects the ability of people to work and make their living above the poverty line and this mostly applies to the youths, unmarried dependent adults. The proposal is meant to make the public policy more inclusive, collaborative and responsive to the interests of the ordinary citizen so as to prepare them for their future life.
From the proposed amendment, there are measurable goals that will determine the level of success of the policy change proposal and this will include: First, by the end of the year we expect 60% of unmarried adult children to be independent and live an economically viable lifestyle. Second, by the end of 2018, the rate of poverty to reduce by 19% since the country will be composed of economically productive youths. Lastly, we expect the employment rate in the country t.

NURS 6050C: Policy and Advocacy for Improving Population Health
INITIAL POST
Resource Allocation for an Aging Population
Technological advances in medicine and preventative care means that Americans are living longer lives than ever before. Hayutin, Deitz, and Mitchell (2010) assert that by the year 2030 Americans over the age of 65 will account for 20% of the population. There will soon be more elderly Americans than children, and the number of working adults is expected to decrease concurrently. This shift in the population will yield significant economic, political and social challenges. Healthcare needs are also changing. Death and disability rates are declining, yet the incidence of chronic illness within the elderly population continues to rise (Hayutin, Deitz, & Mitchell, 2010). Crippen and Barnato (2011) contend that 20% of the population assume 80% of all healthcare-related costs. As much as 75% of these costs are attributable to chronic diseases (Crippen & Barnato, 2011). Revenues for healthcare are projected to decrease while expenditures are expected to increase. Healthcare providers, policymakers, and industry experts need to work towards solutions that will optimize healthcare dollars and create sustainability for future generations.
Ethical Considerations
The dynamics of healthcare are complicated; financial resources seem insignificant when making life and death decisions. Nonetheless, resources are finite, and therefore, distribution and allocation of funds must be ethical. According to Craig (2010), the theory of distributive justice requires that people with the same health needs have equitable access to all available resources. However, distributive justice also requires that the associated costs also be shared equitably. Fairness is another ethical principle that should be applied in the allocation of healthcare resources. Policies that are fair must be transparent, understandable, and there must be regulatory process to address complaints and resolve conflicts. The idea that healthcare is a human right is outlined in the declaration of independence which guarantees citizens the right to life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness. The need of the patient should also be considered. A burn patient needs plastic surgery more than a patient that wants rhinoplasty (Craig, 2010).
Nurses provide the best possible care to every single patient regardless of gender, ethnicity, sexual orientation, ability to pay, or age. The American Nurses Association (2012) provides ethical guidelines for nurses to employ in their practice. Provisions one, two, and three promote the principle of beneficence, and the obligation nurses have to advocate for the best interests of their patients. Provisions seven, eight, and nine focus on providing social justice for clients through practice and policy (American Nurses Association, 2012). Nurses should also promote aut.

Article 1: Immigration as a Social Determinant of Health
Castañeda, H., Holmes, S. M., Madrigal, D. S., Young, M.-E. D., Beyeler, N., & Quesada, J.
(2015). Immigration as a Social Determinant of Health. Annual Review of Public
Health, 36(1), 375–392. doi: 10.1146/annurev-publhealth-032013-182419
Abstract
Although immigration and immigrant populations have become increasingly important foci in
public health research and practice, a social determinants of health approach has seldom been
applied in this area. Global patterns of morbidity and mortality follow inequities rooted in
societal, political, and economic conditions produced and reproduced by social structures,
policies, and institutions. The lack of dialogue between these two profoundly related
phenomena—social determinants of health and immigration—has resulted in missed
opportunities for public health research, practice, and policy work. In this article, we discuss
primary frameworks used in recent public health literature on the health of immigrant
populations, note gaps in this literature, and argue for a broader examination of immigration as
both socially determined and a social determinant of health. We discuss priorities for future
research and policy to understand more fully and respond appropriately to the health of the
populations affected by this global phenomenon.
Annotated Bibliography
The article reports on the importance of identifying social determinants and the effects of
socially determined structures among immigrant populations in the United States. The study
identifies ways in which immigrants health outcomes are based on biases due to using
3
information based on group behaviors instead of on an induvial case. The impact of migrant and
immigrant individuals, physical and mental health in these communities’ changes as social,
economic, and political policies take place. This article is helpful in that broadens the
immigration experience including more central factors than just language, income, or education
as the cause of all health related problems in this community. But to show factors of power
structures and the ability to put in place effective health interventions that respond to direct
causes of poor or declining health in these populations.

Week 2 Discussion 09-04-15
Case Study Analyses
A person’s health may be greatly impacted by his or her access to timely, appropriate care. Yet, in the United States, there are marked differences among the quality of services that are available and each individual’s use of those services. The cost of healthcare, for instance, can greatly influence a person’s decision to visit the doctor or fill a prescription. What other factors impact healthcare-related decisions? In this Discussion, you will read three case studies that illustrate dilemmas related to cost, quality, and access to healthcare, and consider the potential influence these can have on a person’s health, financial standing, and quality of life.
To prepare for this Discussion:
· Read the Week 2 Discussion Case Studies.
· Select one case study on which to focus for this Discussion.
· Review the information presented in the Resources, including Chapter 12 in the Shi and Singh (2015) course text and the two resources you selected.
· Reflect on your selected case study and consider the following questions:
· Which barriers in the U.S. healthcare delivery system related to cost, quality, and/or access are evident in the case study?
· How could these barriers be addressed?
· How does the use of insurance influence concerns or decisions related to cost, quality, and/or access to care for the person in this case study?

This research problem meets the litmus test because it is researchable and has not yet been studied comprehensively. It is an essential issue with potential implications for policy and justice. The research gap in this topic is that no existing research looks explicitly into the psychological effects of the death penalty in Texas. To better reveal this gap, further research can be conducted better to understand the psychological impacts of the death penalty. This research could include qualitative interviews with those affected by the death penalty in Texas, such as family members of those on death row, legal professionals, and mental health professionals (Paul & Criado, 2020).
In order to expertly respond to the qualitative checklist for Chapters 1 through 3, I will need to master a range of skills and subject matter areas. Most importantly, I will need to understand the research topic in depth, including the relevant literature, current debates, and potential implications. Additionally, I will need to become proficient in qualitative methods, such as conducting interviews, analyzing data, and writing results. Furthermore, I will need to thoroughly understand the research process, including creating a research question, developing a research design, and presenting the results (Paul & Criado, 2020).
To build upon the research conducted thus far, a research question I could develop throughout the rest of this course is: What are the psychological effects of the death penalty in Texas on those affected by it? This question could be explored through qualitative interviews with those affected by the death penalty in Texas. This could include the family members of those on death row, legal and mental health professionals. Through these interviews, I could gain insight into the psychological effects of the death penalty in Texas and how it has impacted those involved. This research could help inform better policies and practices related to the death penalty in Texas (Paul & Criado, 2020).

The Role of Government in the U.S. Health Care System
As stated in the course text,
Health Care Delivery in the United States
, “the health care enterprise is one of the most important parts of the U.S. social system and of our economic system as well” (Kovner and Knickman, 2011, p. 4); however, with millions of citizens uninsured, rising costs, massive health disparities, and the need to improve quality and access, many view health care as a broken system. As such, it continues to be a significant political issue in the United States. Most agree that something needs to be done to fix the health care system, but the methods and solutions for addressing problems vary greatly, particularly with respect to the role government should play. Proponents of varying approaches often have strong, emotional opinions, making compromise difficult.
In this Discussion, you will consider the role of government in health care, and you will examine the impact of a social, economic, technological, ethical, or legal issue on health care delivery.
To prepare:
With this week’s Learning Resources in mind, consider this question: Is health care a right or a privilege?
Review the media presentation for this week, focusing on the role of the government in health care.
Pinpoint a social, economic, technological, ethical, or legal issue that could, or has, affected health care delivery in the United States.
Locate a current article from the popular press (within the past 6 months) related to the health care issue you identified. How does this article inform your understanding of the influence of your selected issue in the health care debate?
Post by Day 3
your position on whether health care in the United States is a right or a privilege, and explain what you believe to be the proper role of government in health care. Justify your position. Explain how the social, economic, technological, ethical, or legal issue you selected is impacting health care delivery and whether this issue should be addressed by the government or by private entities. Identify the article you selected, and explain how this article informs your stance.

Policy Change Proposal Section II
Introduction
The proposed policy change is meant to improve the effectiveness of public laws and regulations and even give information on the public use of funds. Further, it will address the practices of the private sector employment that affects the ability of people to work and make their living above the poverty line and this mostly applies to the youths, unmarried dependent adults. The proposal is meant to make the public policy more inclusive, collaborative and responsive to the interests of the ordinary citizen so as to prepare them for their future life.
From the proposed amendment, there are measurable goals that will determine the level of success of the policy change proposal and this will include: First, by the end of the year we expect 60% of unmarried adult children to be independent and live an economically viable lifestyle. Second, by the end of 2018, the rate of poverty to reduce by 19% since the country will be composed of economically productive youths. Lastly, we expect the employment rate in the country t.

In the wake of the 40th anniversary of man setting foot on the moon,.docx
In the wake of the 40th anniversary of man setting foot on the moon, there has been renewed interest in space exploration. Proponents argue that in addition to working toward the actual objective, numerous and widespread "spinoff" benefits will accrue. Others argue that space exploration is "not worth the cost" and that our resources could better be used to deal with other issues such as health care, the economy, etc. What do you think? Is space exploration worth it? If so, what benefits would be derived. If not, why not?

In the wake of the terrorist attacks in September 2001, the 911 Com.docx
In the wake of the terrorist attacks in September 2001, the 9/11 Commission recommended that the U.S. Intelligence Community (USIC) find a way to improve information sharing of terrorism-related intelligence at all three levels of government (local, state, and federal). The USIC’s answer to this recommendation was the creation of intelligence
fusion centers
.
Since the creation of these intelligence fusion centers, there has been much controversy because of the large amounts of personal information secretly collected and shared within the U.S. intelligence and law enforcement communities. In addition, some critics argue that in the years since their creation, fusion centers and the law enforcement entities affiliated with them have moved away from their original purpose and instead have utilized federal grants and resources to fight local crime.
Assignment Guidelines
In 5–6 paragraphs, address the following:
In your opinion, how effective are U.S. fusion centers? Explain.
Do you feel that the creation of fusion centers has improved information sharing of terrorism-related information at all three levels of government? Why or why not?
Do you feel that fusion centers have ultimately moved away from their intended purpose? Why or why not?
Are fusion centers now being used as a local law enforcement tool to help fight local crime? Why or why not?

In the United States, managed care is becoming an increasingly popul.docx
In the United States, managed care is becoming an increasingly popular method of administering healthcare. It influences the clinical behavior of providers, as it combines the payment and delivery of healthcare into a single system, the purpose of which is to control the cost, quality, and access of healthcare services for a single bracket of health plan enrollees (Scutchfield, Lee, & Patton, 1997).
Yet, managed care often evokes strong or negative reactions from healthcare providers because they are paid a fixed amount for treating their patients, regardless of the actual cost, which may influence their level of efficiency. This can challenge the relationships between doctors and patients (Claxton, Rae, Panchal, Damico, & Lundy, 2012; Sekhri, 2000).
Research managed care's inception and study some examples. Be sure to investigate the perspectives about managed care from the vantage of both healthcare providers and patients. You can use the following keywords for your research—United States managed care, history of managed care, and managed care timeline.
Based on your research, answer the following questions in a 8- to 10-page Microsoft Word document:
What are the positive and negative aspects of managed care? Analyze the benefits and the risks for both providers and patients, and how providers should choose among managed care contracts. Conclude with your analysis and recommendations for managed care health plans. Your response should include answers to the following questions:
Summarize the history of when, how, and why managed care was developed.
Define and discuss each type of managed care organization (MCO)—health maintenance organization (HMO), preferred provider organization (PPO), and point of sale (POS).
Explain the positive and negative aspects, respectively, of managed care organization from the provider's point of view—a physician and a healthcare facility—and from a patient's point of view.
Explain the three types of incentives for providers for efficiency in the delivery of healthcare services. Explain who bears the financial risk—the provider, the patient, or the managed care organization.
Offer your recommendations, to accept or decline, for patients considering managed care health plans, with your rationale for each.

Operation Blue Star - Saka Neela Tara
Operation “Blue Star” is the only event in the history of Independent India where the state went into war with its own people. Even after about 40 years it is not clear if it was culmination of states anger over people of the region, a political game of power or start of dictatorial chapter in the democratic setup.
The people of Punjab felt alienated from main stream due to denial of their just demands during a long democratic struggle since independence. As it happen all over the word, it led to militant struggle with great loss of lives of military, police and civilian personnel. Killing of Indira Gandhi and massacre of innocent Sikhs in Delhi and other India cities was also associated with this movement.

Ethical Issues With an Aging PopulationAccording to the CDC, in t.docx
- 1. Ethical Issues With an Aging Population According to the CDC, “in the United States, the proportion of the population aged > 65 years is projected to increase from 12.4% in 2000 to 19.6% in 2030,” (CDC, 2003, para. 2). Caring for this aging population is going to be one of the greatest challenges facing the health care industry. Not only will the number of individuals requiring care rise, but so will the cost. As poignantly stated by Crippen and Barnato, “unless we change the practice of medicine and reduce future costs, and explicitly address the ethical dilemmas we face, there may come a time when our kids simply cannot afford us” (2011, p. 128). In this Discussion, you will examine the ethical issues that the United States and other nations must address when faced with the health care challenges of an aging population. To prepare: Consider the ethical aspects of health care and health policy for an aging population. Review the Hayutin, Dietz, and Mitchell report presented in the Learning Resources. The authors pose the question, “What are the economic consequences, now and for future generations of taxpayers if we fail to adapt our policies to the changing reality of an older population?” (p. 21). Consider how you would respond to this question. In addition, reflect on the ethical decisions that arise when dispersing limited funds. Contemplate the impact of failing to adjust policy in accordance with the changing reality of an older population. Reflect on the ethical dilemmas that arise when determining expenditures on end-of-life health care. Post by Day 3 an explanation of the ethical standards you believe should be used in determining how resources should be allocated for an aging population and end-of-life care. Then, provide an analysis of the ethical challenges related to the preparation for the
