STANDARDS:Code of Ethics
This week we discussed different professional organizations and examined ACSM's professional code of ethics. Go online and find a different professional organization's Code of Ethics. Copy and paste the code of ethics into a Microsoft Word document and write a short paragraph on the similarities and/or differences compared to the ACSM's code of ethics. Are there any codes that you disagree with?
Tips & Tricks
• Make sure you paste the code of ethics from a professional organization (Hint: Do a google search for personal trainer code of ethics)
• Your paragraph should be 8-12 sentences long
• You MAY write two paragraphs. (One comparing and contrasting and one discussing anything on the code that you disagree with.)
• Be sure to complete a spell check!

Recomendações da OMS sobre cuidados maternos e neonatais para uma experiência pós-natal positiva.
Em consonância com os ODS – Objetivos do Desenvolvimento Sustentável e a Estratégia Global para a Saúde das Mulheres, Crianças e Adolescentes, e aplicando uma abordagem baseada nos direitos humanos, os esforços de cuidados pós-natais devem expandir-se para além da cobertura e da simples sobrevivência, de modo a incluir cuidados de qualidade.
Estas diretrizes visam melhorar a qualidade dos cuidados pós-natais essenciais e de rotina prestados às mulheres e aos recém-nascidos, com o objetivo final de melhorar a saúde e o bem-estar materno e neonatal.
Uma “experiência pós-natal positiva” é um resultado importante para todas as mulheres que dão à luz e para os seus recém-nascidos, estabelecendo as bases para a melhoria da saúde e do bem-estar a curto e longo prazo. Uma experiência pós-natal positiva é definida como aquela em que as mulheres, pessoas que gestam, os recém-nascidos, os casais, os pais, os cuidadores e as famílias recebem informação consistente, garantia e apoio de profissionais de saúde motivados; e onde um sistema de saúde flexível e com recursos reconheça as necessidades das mulheres e dos bebês e respeite o seu contexto cultural.
Estas diretrizes consolidadas apresentam algumas recomendações novas e já bem fundamentadas sobre cuidados pós-natais de rotina para mulheres e neonatos que recebem cuidados no pós-parto em unidades de saúde ou na comunidade, independentemente dos recursos disponíveis.
É fornecido um conjunto abrangente de recomendações para cuidados durante o período puerperal, com ênfase nos cuidados essenciais que todas as mulheres e recém-nascidos devem receber, e com a devida atenção à qualidade dos cuidados; isto é, a entrega e a experiência do cuidado recebido. Estas diretrizes atualizam e ampliam as recomendações da OMS de 2014 sobre cuidados pós-natais da mãe e do recém-nascido e complementam as atuais diretrizes da OMS sobre a gestão de complicações pós-natais.
O estabelecimento da amamentação e o manejo das principais intercorrências é contemplada.
Recomendamos muito.
Vamos discutir essas recomendações no nosso curso de pós-graduação em Aleitamento no Instituto Ciclos.

Overall life span (LS) was 1671.7±1721.6 days and cumulative 5YS reached 62.4%, 10 years – 50.4%, 20 years – 44.6%. 94 LCP lived more than 5 years without cancer (LS=2958.6±1723.6 days), 22 – more than 10 years (LS=5571±1841.8 days). 67 LCP died because of LC (LS=471.9±344 days). AT significantly improved 5YS (68% vs. 53.7%) (P=0.028 by log-rank test). Cox modeling displayed that 5YS of LCP significantly depended on: N0-N12, T3-4, blood cell circuit, cell ratio factors (ratio between cancer cells-CC and blood cells subpopulations), LC cell dynamics, recalcification time, heparin tolerance, prothrombin index, protein, AT, procedure type (P=0.000-0.031). Neural networks, genetic algorithm selection and bootstrap simulation revealed relationships between 5YS and N0-12 (rank=1), thrombocytes/CC (rank=2), segmented neutrophils/CC (3), eosinophils/CC (4), erythrocytes/CC (5), healthy cells/CC (6), lymphocytes/CC (7), stick neutrophils/CC (8), leucocytes/CC (9), monocytes/CC (10). Correct prediction of 5YS was 100% by neural networks computing (error=0.000; area under ROC curve=1.0).

4. Scope of Nursing Practice
The scope of nursing and midwifery practice is
that which nurses and midwives are educated,
competent and authorised to perform. The
actual scope of an individual nurse’s or
midwife’s practice is influenced by:
– The context in which they practice the client’s
health needs;
– The level of competence, education and
qualifications of the individual nurse or midwife;
and
– The service provider’s policies
5. Competency Standards for nurses in General Practice
Nurses use competency standards as their
professional framework against which to measure
performance and prepare a professional
development plan so that competence is
maintained and enhanced.
Nurse regulatory authorities in each state and
territory use competency standards to determine
the eligibility of people applying for a licence to
practice as a nurse and to assess nurses required to
demonstrate continuing competence.
6. Competency Standards for nurses in General Practice
REGISTERED NURSE ( Div.1):
ANMC national competency standards for the registered nurse;
Competency standards for the registered nurse in general practice;
Competency standards for the advanced registered nurse;

ANMC national competency standards for the enrolled nurse;
Competency standards for the enrolled nurse in general practice;
Competency standards for the advanced enrolled nurse.
8. What is a Professional Portfolio?
A professional portfolio is a comprehensive record
of your professional roles.
It is updated on an annual basis at the minimum.
A professional portfolio is a confidential document
although you can use copies of some of the
information when applying for a new position or a
pay increase, applying to undertake some further
education, or when audited by the nurse regulatory
authority for the purposes of continuing
competence.

society and to the profession to provide safe and
competent nursing care which is responsive to
individual group and community needs, and the
profession.
11. Code of Professional Conduct for Nurses in Australia
Set of expected national standards of conduct for

Code of Professional Conduct for Nurses in
Australia
15. Insurance for Nurses in General Practice
Vicarious liability
Professional indemnity
Workers’ compensation
Legal fees
Income protection
Accident or injury
16. Ongoing licensure requires that
you:
practice within your scope
practice competently
practice in accordance with your code of ethics
practice in accordance with your code of professional
conduct
practice within a legislative framework.
17. The Nurse as an employee
Employers are legally responsible for an employee’s
negligence, based on the principle of vicarious
liability. Under this principle, an employer is legally
liable for the negligent acts and omissions of its
employees where those acts and omissions arise
from or occur in the scope and course of the
employment relationship.
It is important to understand that the principle of
vicarious liability does not absolve the nurse
working in general practice from responsibility or
remove their legal exposure.
18. The Nurse as an employee
On rare occasions the employer may seek to recover
costs from a nurse employee or join them in legal action
in relation to a medical negligence claim, or very rarely,
the patient and the patient’s lawyers may decide to sue
the nurse alone, or may sue the nurse as well as the
employer.
The nurse working in general practice may also face
exposure additional and unrelated to the prosecution of
a claim for compensation. For example, they may face
disciplinary proceedings or may have their management
investigated by the coroner.
19. The Nurse as an independent contractor
The principle of vicarious liability does not apply in
this instance. If the nurse is an independent
contractor from a Nursing Agency, Division of
General Practice or similar and is not an employee
of a general practice, liability for any negligent act
by a nurse lies with that nurse. A nurse who is an
independent contractor should therefore obtain
his/her own professional indemnity cover and the
practice who has engaged the nurse should ensure
that the nurse has this cover.
20. Practice considerations
If a patient is harmed, or is allegedly harmed, as a
result of the negligent acts or omissions of a nurse
working in general practice, the general
practitioners legal responsibility in part depends on
whether the practice nurse is:
– An employee of the practice; or
– An independent contractor.
The distinction between these two, while often
clear, can sometimes be quite difficult to make.
