Profile Picture 1 posts Re:Topic 2 DQ 1 It is essential to note that we actually live in a diverse nation and overcoming the shortcomings associated with cultural preferences and beliefs is a big obstacle for healthcare professionals today. In the article “Health Disparity and Cultural Conflict” cultural diversity is singled out to be more than one race. It is important for healthcare workers to know that addressing cultural diversity is far more than just understanding the values, practices, customs, and beliefs (Hughes, 2011). Apart from national origin and racial classification, there are various kinds of cultural diversity and these include language, age, religious affiliation, and geographical location. Healthcare providers are expected to diligently accommodate the varying needs of the individuals they meet in their service provision. The needs actually range from the different cultural backgrounds to the learning styles and preferences as well as the mixed opinions that define their health and well-being (Lochman, 2012). The issue of language barrier is a big problem to many healthcare providers. Nurses are normally exposed to various beliefs and cultures as they work in their healthcare fields. Apart from diversity, it is important to consider the level of education plus the style of learning. This will enable the nurse to formulate the best teaching method relevant for the patient. Patients with various cultural differences can sometimes not be willing to take part in education or take in the teachings. In order to initiate any formal kind of teaching, trust must be developed (Campinha, 2003). Nurses should assess the values and ideas related to the illness and health of the patients, treatment provided, medication being taken, and the expectations to ensure effective teaching or learning. Healthcare professional should pay very close attention to the cultural needs of their patients including expression and language. For example, a Chinese patient who has been disregarding signs unusual signs and symptoms of rectal bleeding for a long time. He has come to the hospital and diagnosed with colon cancer. The early treatment process however needs colon resection. The treatment process is discussed with the patient and risk also explained, particularly blood loss. In the process of surgery, the patient loses a lot of blood and the level of haemoglobin reduces below the normal range. This required immediate blood transfusion. However, the culture of the patient did not accept blood transfusion. The transfusion process had to be delayed since the patient refused. Such kind of cultural affiliations can affect the manner which care delivery is done and providers must be aware of them and teach the patients. Teaching should actually be a multidisciplinary team work which includes social work, dietician, and therapy department. Nurses should also be aware of their own values and beliefs before interacting with the various different culture.

A multicultural city means a city whose members have a diverse cultural values and beliefs. When working in such a city, a nurse should be culturally competence in order to serve all the occupants of the city effectively. Miami for example is a multicultural city because its population involves people from different ethnic backgrounds like Latin American and Caribbean. The main benefit for practicing in such a city is that;
Multicultural city helps a nurse to learn more about different cultures and their beliefs and values concerning nursing and healthcare. This helps to expand the mind of the practitioner. For a nurse to give quality services to patients, he or she must be aware of the patient’s culture and background information. Though it may take a while before the nurse learns about the different cultures, it helps him or her become more experienced.
Challenges of practicing in a multicultural city
There are so many challenges of practicing in a multicultural city. Communication barrier is one of the challenges. When the practitioner and the patient cannot communicate efficiently, therefore the nurse will not be able to deliver effectively (Murcia & Lopez, 2016). Secondly, a nurse may experience culture shock in a multicultural city. This happens when nurses are confronted with very new cultural beliefs and values and then they try to compare with their own beliefs and everything looks so new. Thirdly, another challenge could be rejection by the city residents. When there is a new nurse with different cultural beliefs and values, chances are the residents might reject the nurse’s services and prefer to be served by only home nurses. This is because people feel comfortable receiving care from people who understand their cultural beliefs and values.

Defining a Culturally Competent Organization Culturally competent .docx
Defining a Culturally Competent Organization Culturally competent health care, broadly defined as services that are respectful of and responsive to the cultural and linguistic needs of patients, is increasingly viewed as essential in reducing racial and ethnic disparities, improving health care quality, and controlling costs. The U.S. government considers cultural competence as a method of increasing access to quality care for all patients. The aim should be to develop systems more responsive to diverse populations. Managed care organizations view cultural competence as driving both quality and business. By embedding cultural competence strategies into quality improvement initiatives to make care more efficient and effective, clinical outcomes are improved while costs are controlled. Those in academic settings agree that cultural competency education is crucial for preparing future health care workers, although appropriate education on the topic is provided in only half of the medical schools in the United States (Betancourt, Green, Carrillo, & Park, 2005). According to the Office of Minority Health, cultural competence refers to the ability of health care providers and organizations to understand and respond effectively to the cultural and linguistic needs of patients (Office of Minority Health, 2001). Cultural competence encompasses a wide range of activities and considerations. It includes providing respectful care that is consistent with cultural health beliefs of the clients and family members. Competent interpreter services and programs to promote staff diversity are other ways in which health care organizations can increase cultural competence (Clancy & Stryer, 2001). Because communication is a cornerstone of patient safety and quality care, every patient has the right to receive information in a manner he or she understands. Effective communication allows patients to participate more fully in their care. Communicating effectively with patients is also critical to the informed consent process and helps practitioners and hospitals give the best possible care. For communication to be effective, the information provided must be complete, accurate, timely, unambiguous, and understood by the patient. Many patients of varying circumstances require alternative communication methods: patients who speak and/or read languages other than English; patients who have limited literacy in any language; patients who have visual or hearing impairments; patients on ventilators; patients with cognitive impairments; and children. The hospital has many options available to assist in communication with these individuals, such as interpreters, translated written materials, pen and paper, communication boards, and speech therapy. It is up to the hospital to determine which method is the best for each patient. Various laws, regulations, and guidelines are relevant to the use of interpreters. These include Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, 1964; Executive Order .

Patients who have complex health needs require not only medical. But also social services and support from a variety of caregivers and providers. Facility managers who are part of care coordination could assist patient in receiving optimal care by addressing the challenges in coordinating care for these patients, and offer programmatic changes and policies that help deliver the best services to all patients.
Facility managers can come up with strategic plans based on prior data and make necessary changes based on preexisting conditions. “Patient- centered, comprehensive, coordinated, and accessible care that continuously improved through a systems-based approach to quality and safety” (AHRQ, 2012) are what’s needed to achieve the highest quality care possible in any health care facility.
Patient centered care can’t be achieved with providers only. It requires team work and collaboration among all stakeholders. To improve the quality and safety of patients, health care facility managers can work hand and hand with the coordinated team to provide a system based approach by drawing on decision-support tools, taking into account patient experience, and using population health management approach. Patient preference and needs on what aspects of care to be improved.

As a facility manager, and part of the care coordination team, I would look into models of care that would assist our situation. With the Affordable Care Act in place, there are accountable care organizations (ACOs), which provide models of care (“Promise,” 2013). There are many different definitions and perspectives on care coordination, but all lead to the goal of meeting patient needs and providing adequate healthcare (“Care,” 2014).
Care coordination is essential because each patient can interact with a variety of professionals each visit. For example, for a routine physical appointment, the patient could meet with the scheduling staff, medical assistants, nurses, doctors, pharmacists, and the billing staff. If each one of these member fails to coordinate as a whole, the patient could be harmed or neglected. As a care coordinator, I would be responsible for discussing an individualized care plan with each patient and ensuring that they understand their responsibilities. All barriers should be identified, such as financial, social (language), psychological, and anything that would effect the patient from following their correct plan of care and interacting with the staff (“Promise,” 2013). Another key point is to ensure the medical staff has reviewed the patient’s medical records and ensure that everyone is on the same page. These are just a few examples, because each case is different and each patient will have different needs. .

A Patient Educator in A Hospital
Introduction
Nursing is not all about giving medications or treating patients. It is the responsibility of the nurses to educate patients on how to prevent illnesses and how to manage certain medical conditions. Nurses can do these by interacting and communicating with patients. By doing this, they will help patients understand how to take control of their health care. When patients take part in their health care, they are likely to change their behaviors and do things that are likely to improve their general health.
My role and the environment I will utilize for teaching
According to Burke and Mancuso (2012), learning is very important in any nursing environment. Effective education of patients happens from the time they are admitted at the hospital and goes on until the patients are discharged from the hospital. For out-patients, I will educate them during their waiting time. As a nurse I will take every opportunity I will come across during the patients’ visit to the hospital and throughout their admission in the hospital to educate them about their health care. I will provide patients with instructions to follow on self-care and how to maintain certain problems. Some of the self-care instructions include;
· How to follow the steps of self-care
· How to know early signs of certain illnesses
· How to go about emergency problems
· Who to contact in case of problems
The intended audience
I will educate people of all populations in my education program regardless of their age, culture, illness, ethnicity, and gender. General education will be provided to all patients on how to take care of themselves when they leave the hospital. This important because sometimes patients go home, neglect themselves, resume their unhealthy practices, and forget to manage their medical conditions. For patients suffering from diabetes, I will educate and provide them with instructions on how to inject themselves with insulin. For new mothers, they will learn how to take care of their new born babies and how to bath the infants. I will provide instructions on how to change a colostomy pouching system for the concerned patients.
The Social Cognitive Learning Theory
Key points of the theory
This theory concentrates on the impacts of social factors on a person’s thinking, perception and motivation. According to the social cognition theory, a patient must have different perspectives, approaches, and reactions to situations in the health care environment. The players in the health care setting would be expected to have different perceptions, interpretations, and responses to a situation that are strongly colored by their social and cultural experiences (Braungart, Braungart, & Gramet, 2008).

Health Promotion and Disease Prevention in Vulnerable and Diverse Populations
Wellness Education Program Proposal

WELLNESS EDUCATION PROGRAM 2
Wellness Education Program Proposal
I. Introduction
In the United States, vulnerable populations such as Hispanics are more likely to face
difficulties while accessing health care than less vulnerable populations. Many factors such as
low income, lack of insurance, lack of education, and lack of English and Spanish language
proficiency contribute to this disparity in accessing health care. This language barrier can prevent
Hispanics from accessing important health education material and prevent health care workers
from providing regular medical care. This proposal focuses on the importance of developing a
wellness education program for health promotion and disease prevention among Hispanics.
II. Problems and Needs
To address the health care disparities, a holistic wellness education plan needs to be
developed for Hispanics taking into consideration their affinity to complementary and
alternative medicine (CAM) and spiritual care. It is also necessary to be aware of the positive
and negative aspects of the ethical, legal, and economic principles of health promotion and
disease prevention while developing the wellness education plan.
III. Proposed
Solution
An ideal wellness education plan for Hispanics would integrate the elements of
culture, language, CAM, and spiritual care for addressing the health care disparities faced by
them. Integrating these elements would help them receive a more holistic health care as their
physical and mental states are taken into consideration while devising the plan.
WELLNESS EDUCATION PROGRAM 3
Cultural Considerations in the Wellness Education Plan for Hispanics
Delivering culturally competent health care with knowledge about the cultural beliefs of
patients from diverse populations assures good health service delivery. In keeping with this
belief, Dr. Marilyn A. Ray, a renowned nursing educator and researcher, developed a program
called the Transcultural Caring Dynamics in Nursing and Health Care Model. This model helps
nurses clarify queries pertaining to patients from diverse cultural backgrounds and helps them
understand the processes that affect nursing from a transcultural perspective, which will enable
better health care.
This model has four major concepts: (a) the essence of caring, which includes various
concepts of love, empathy, attention, availability, and communication; (b) the transcultural
caring ethics dynamic, which includes respect, trust, commitment, autonomy, impartiality,
human rights, and cultural rights; (c) the transcultural context .

Context
Community/public health nursing is nursing care that is population-focused and occurs in non-hospital settings. Numerous nursing theories can provide the structure for community/public health nursing; however, nursing theories that incorporate components of the general systems theory frequently provide the framework for the practice of community/public health nursing.
Historically, nurses have made significant contributions to the field of public health. From providing maternal-child care to poor women in the late 1800s, to promoting hygiene among school aged children in the early 1900s, to providing environmental and safety care to industrial workers during World War I, nurses have been instrumental in shaping health policies (Maurer & Smith, 2013). Today, community/public health nurses have a key role in identifying and developing plans of care to address local, national, and international health issues.
Many factors influence the health of communities and populations, including national policies that focus on health promotion. Healthy People, a major national health promotion program issued by the U.S. Surgeon General, identifies major health problems of the nation and sets national goals and objectives targeting health promotion (Maurer & Smith, 2013). If adopted, activities that target health promotion can result in disease prevention.

Patricia Wilkes works as a correctional officer at Corcoran California state prison. Corcoran is a high security institution that houses some of the most violent male offenders. Patricia has worked at the institution for four years and has encountered two attacks against her from two separate inmates over a year span. Patricia is freshly returned back to work after being off for a week due to her injuries from her latest attack. The attack involved her being pushed down by an inmate, causing a sprain arm. Feeling vulnerable Patricia became friends with an inmate who witnessed the attack and promised to issue protection if she sneaks in contraband for him. She is conflicted but, because she is afraid; she agrees to do it.

Elnaz Alimi
1. Which theory bases would you use to guide your project and future work in this area? Please discuss both a) an occupational therapy model(s), as well as b) related knowledge theory bases you would prioritize from outside the field of OT that you think are important to use to guide interactions with this population.
2. Given these theory bases from #1, how would you define and conceptualize and with this population?
3. How would you assess needs and evaluate outcomes related to these two concepts with immigrants and refugees? E.g., which assessment tools would you use and why?
4. How would you adapt your assessment and intervention process so it is a) accessible to people with diverse disabilities in this population, while also being b) culturally relevant to people from within this social group?
1. Theories and Models
This project will be guided by both occupational based model Person-Environment- Person-Participation known as PEOP and other related knowledge theory bases related to immigration studies. All of these theories are explained as following. The detailed explanations about these theories are eliminated and the main features of them that are align with this project are illustrated.
1.1. Person-Environment-Occupation-Performance (PEOP) Model
The Person-Environment-Occupation-Performance (PEOP) Model was generated in 1985 and published in 1991. Development of this model was a response to need for more occupational based models over the paradigm shift. (Christiansen & Baum, 1991, 1997; Christiansen et al., 2005). It is envisioned that although there are some similarities with other models, yet different from other models in terms of its focus on occupational performance and participation, as well as using a top-down approach (Christiansen et al., 2005). The PEOP model is defined as a system model that looks at the function in the systems as a whole and considers the interaction over its components. Occupational performance has been received close attention in the PEOP model and contains three main components: (1) characteristics of the person (including physiological, psychological, motor, sensory/perceptual, cognitive, or spiritual), (2) characteristics of the environment (including cultural, social support, social determinants, and social capital, physical and natural environments, health education and public policy, assistive technology), and (3) characteristics of the activity, task, or role. The most recent edition is developed to provide therapists to identify the client’s enablers and barriers to occupational performance, and might be employed both individual and organizational/community based (Christiansen et al., 2005). PEOP pays close attention to the importance of occupational competency in order to attain occupational participation. Occupational participation in PEOP is wider compared to occupational performance as it embeds the ability to engage in preferred lifestyle choices to participate .
CONCEPTS & TEACHING STRATEGIES IN NURSE EDUCATION
Health teaching strategies in nursing are methods that nurses use to educate patients and promote health literacy
Some common health teaching strategies in nursing include:
1. Lecture: giving a presentation and reciting information to patients.
2. Mid-lecture quizzing: asking questions throughout or at the end of the lecture to assess learning.
3. Simulations: using realistic scenarios and equipment to practice skills and procedures.
Delegation: assigning more responsibilities to support staff and focusing more on patient education.
4. Assessment: finding out what the patient already knows and correcting any misinformation.

Review the Healthy People 2020 objectives for the older adult. Of the objectives listed for the older adult, which do you feel is most important? Be sure to include examples and references to support your response.
Objective: Increase the proportion of older adults with one or more chronic health conditions who report confidence in managing their conditions
(Healthy People 2020).
Chronic conditions may be difficult to manage based on the complexities of a disease. Additionally, managing one or more chronic conditions may be time consuming. Time consuming tasks may take the form of monitoring (e.g. checking blood glucose), keeping a diary, scheduling appointments, sorting and taking medications, exercising, meal planning, etc.. The Agency for Healthcare Research and Quality (2015) suggests the burden of these tasks significantly impact how patients manage their chronic conditions, and that patients often find it difficult to complete all these tasks in order to manage their condition effectively. Personally, I see examples of this every day at the hospital: Patients are not confident in their self-management ability and are therefore unable to demonstrate skill or awareness in regards to their condition. Despite receiving adequate medical attention from outstanding multidisciplinary teams, patients continue to show little interest in self-management, ultimately resulting in an overwhelming number of older adults who lack the confidence to manage one or more chronic conditions (Bodenheimer, 2005). Healthcare providers are being forced to seek new and innovative ways to connect with patients and reinforce educational material in order to give patients the confidence and skill to manage their care. I believe this objective to be most important because self-management is clinically proven to result in better outcomes. It is proven that support for patients and caregivers improve confidence in managing conditions. Recently, my hospital has added to its emphasis on education and follow up... Simply providing information to patients is not enough to build confidence, skill, nor the knowledge to manage their health. Therefore, nursing must collaborate to reinforce behaviors and promote better health outcomes in patients.
There are several vulnerable populations that have a chronic illness (older; homeless; and lesbian, gay, bisexual, and transgender populations) that face challenges when it comes to care. Choose one vulnerable population and discuss what can be done to help alleviate these challenges.
Based on recent events that have transpired in the news, one might acknowledge that refugees and immigrants are a vulnerable population... many of whom are struggling with chronic illness, and undeniably experiencing challenges related to our healthcare delivery system. Several barriers exist for this group, including language and technology barriers, expectations of medical care, cultural differences, as well as unique ...

Introduction
The primary role of a psychiatric-mental health nurse practitioner is providing psychotherapy and educating patients and families.
One of the problems that has been experienced in psychiatry is stigma, discrimination and prejudice.
This issue has presented certain effects like delay in seeking help, burnout among health care providers and poor services.
One of the theories that is relevant to the specialty is the modelling and role modelling theory.
Psychiatric-mental health nurse practitioners usually play a key role in promoting health care. Their primary role is providing psychotherapy and educating patients and families. However, patients and health care providers are facing various issues particularly stigma, discrimination and prejudice which has negatively affected the provision of health care services. The modelling and role modelling theory is one of the theories that is relevant and can greatly help to deal with the problem and may be used as a framework to guide evidence-based practice.
2
Modelling and Role Modelling Theory
It was developed by Helen Erickson, Evelyn Tomlin and Mary Anne and was published in 1983.
This theory helps health care providers to care for and nurture every patient based on their needs.
Commonalities in the theory include attachment and loss, basic needs, holism and cognitive stages.
Differences in the theory include self-care, stress, adaptation, model of the world and inherent endowment.
The modelling and role modelling theory was developed by Helen Erickson, Evelyn Tomlin and Mary Anne and was published in 1983. This is a crucial theory in nursing because it helps health care providers to care and nurture patients while upholding the awareness and respect of every patient’s uniqueness (Smith, 2019). Due to that, this theory is considered to support clinical practices that concentrate on the needs of patients. The theory looks at certain elements like attachment and loss, holism, basic needs and cognitive stages. It focuses on certain differences amongst people including stress, self-care, adaptation, model of the world and inherent endowment.
3
Relevance of the Theory
Modelling involves health care providers seeking to know and understand patients’ personal model of their world.
Health care providers learn to appreciate the value of patients’ personal model of the world and its importance.
This theory acknowledges that all human beings have unique perspectives about their world.
Health care providers are able to develop an image and understanding of patients’ perspective and personal model of the world.
The modelling and role modelling theory is relevant to my nurse practitioner specialty since it entails crucial aspects that promote the well-being of patients. During the modelling process, nurses are able to find out and comprehend the personal model of patients and learn how t.

Healthy People 2020
Healthy People was a call to action and an attempt to set health goals for the United States for the next 10 years.
Healthy People 2000 established 3 general goals:
Increase the span of healthy life.
Reduce health disparities.
Create access to preventive services for all.
Healthy People 2010 introduced 2 general goals:
Increase quality and years of healthy life.
Eliminate health disparities.
Practical Policy for Preventive Services
The U.S. health care system faces significant challenges that clearly indicate the urgent need for reform.
There is broad evidence that Americans often do not get the care they need even though the United States spends more money per person on health care than any other nation in the world.
Preventive care is underutilized, resulting in higher spending on complex, advanced diseases.
Practical Policy for Preventive Services
Patients with chronic diseases too often do not receive proven and effective treatments such as drug therapies or self management services to help them more effectively manage their conditions.
These problems are exacerbated by a lack of coordination of care for patients with chronic diseases.
Reforming our health care delivery system to improve the quality and value of care is essential to address escalating costs, poor quality, and increasing numbers of Americans without health insurance coverage.
Why policies need to be developed?
Basic needs are not being met (e.g., People are not receiving the health care they need)
People are not being treated fairly (e.g., People with disabilities do not have access to public places)
Resources are distributed unfairly (e.g., Educational services are more limited in neighborhoods of concentrated poverty)
Why policies need to be developed?
Current policies or laws are not enforced or effective (e.g., The current laws on clean water are neither enforced nor effective)
Proposed changes in policies or laws would be harmful (e.g., A plan to eliminate flextime in a large business would reduce parents' ability to be with their children)
Existing or emerging conditions pose a threat to public health, safety, education, or well-being (e.g., New threats from terrorist activity)

Health Promotion and Disease Prevention in Vulnerable and Diverse Populations
Wellness Education Program Proposal
May, 2017
WELLNESS EDUCATION PROGRAM 2
Wellness Education Program Proposal
I. Introduction
In the United States, vulnerable populations such as Hispanics are more likely to face
difficulties while accessing health care than less vulnerable populations. Many factors such as
low income, lack of insurance, lack of education, and lack of English and Spanish language
proficiency contribute to this disparity in accessing health care. This language barrier can prevent
Hispanics from accessing important health education material and prevent health care workers
from providing regular medical care. This proposal focuses on the importance of developing a
wellness education program for health promotion and disease prevention among Hispanics.
II. Problems and Needs
To address the health care disparities, a holistic wellness education plan needs to be
developed for Hispanics taking into consideration their affinity to complementary and
alternative medicine (CAM) and spiritual care. It is also necessary to be aware of the positive
and negative aspects of the ethical, legal, and economic principles of health promotion and
disease prevention while developing the wellness education plan.
III. Proposed
Solution
An ideal wellness education plan for Hispanics would integrate the elements of
culture, language, CAM, and spiritual care for addressing the health care disparities faced by
them. Integrating these elements would help them receive a more holistic health care as their
physical and mental states are taken into consideration while devising the plan.
WELLNESS EDUCATION PROGRAM 3
Cultural Considerations in the Wellness Education Plan for Hispanics
Delivering culturally competent health care with knowledge about the cultural beliefs of
patients from diverse populations assures good health service delivery. In keeping with this
belief, Dr. Marilyn A. Ray, a renowned nursing educator and researcher, developed a program
called the Transcultural Caring Dynamics in Nursing and Health Care Model. This model helps
nurses clarify queries pertaining to patients from diverse cultural backgrounds and helps them
understand the processes that affect nursing from a transcultural perspective, which will enable
better health care.
This model has four major concepts: (a) the essence of caring, which includes various
concepts of love, empathy, attention, availability, and communication; (b) the transcultural
caring ethics dynamic, which includes respect, trust, commitment, autonomy, impartiality,
human rights, and cultural rights; (c) the transcultural context .

Context
Community/public health nursing is nursing care that is population-focused and occurs in non-hospital settings. Numerous nursing theories can provide the structure for community/public health nursing; however, nursing theories that incorporate components of the general systems theory frequently provide the framework for the practice of community/public health nursing.
Historically, nurses have made significant contributions to the field of public health. From providing maternal-child care to poor women in the late 1800s, to promoting hygiene among school aged children in the early 1900s, to providing environmental and safety care to industrial workers during World War I, nurses have been instrumental in shaping health policies (Maurer & Smith, 2013). Today, community/public health nurses have a key role in identifying and developing plans of care to address local, national, and international health issues.
Many factors influence the health of communities and populations, including national policies that focus on health promotion. Healthy People, a major national health promotion program issued by the U.S. Surgeon General, identifies major health problems of the nation and sets national goals and objectives targeting health promotion (Maurer & Smith, 2013). If adopted, activities that target health promotion can result in disease prevention.

Manipulation Scenario
Patricia Wilkes works as a correctional officer at Corcoran California state prison. Corcoran is a high security institution that houses some of the most violent male offenders. Patricia has worked at the institution for four years and has encountered two attacks against her from two separate inmates over a year span. Patricia is freshly returned back to work after being off for a week due to her injuries from her latest attack. The attack involved her being pushed down by an inmate, causing a sprain arm. Feeling vulnerable Patricia became friends with an inmate who witnessed the attack and promised to issue protection if she sneaks in contraband for him. She is conflicted but, because she is afraid; she agrees to do it.

Elnaz Alimi
1. Which theory bases would you use to guide your project and future work in this area? Please discuss both a) an occupational therapy model(s), as well as b) related knowledge theory bases you would prioritize from outside the field of OT that you think are important to use to guide interactions with this population.
2. Given these theory bases from #1, how would you define and conceptualize and with this population?
3. How would you assess needs and evaluate outcomes related to these two concepts with immigrants and refugees? E.g., which assessment tools would you use and why?
4. How would you adapt your assessment and intervention process so it is a) accessible to people with diverse disabilities in this population, while also being b) culturally relevant to people from within this social group?
1. Theories and Models
This project will be guided by both occupational based model Person-Environment- Person-Participation known as PEOP and other related knowledge theory bases related to immigration studies. All of these theories are explained as following. The detailed explanations about these theories are eliminated and the main features of them that are align with this project are illustrated.
1.1. Person-Environment-Occupation-Performance (PEOP) Model
The Person-Environment-Occupation-Performance (PEOP) Model was generated in 1985 and published in 1991. Development of this model was a response to need for more occupational based models over the paradigm shift. (Christiansen & Baum, 1991, 1997; Christiansen et al., 2005). It is envisioned that although there are some similarities with other models, yet different from other models in terms of its focus on occupational performance and participation, as well as using a top-down approach (Christiansen et al., 2005). The PEOP model is defined as a system model that looks at the function in the systems as a whole and considers the interaction over its components. Occupational performance has been received close attention in the PEOP model and contains three main components: (1) characteristics of the person (including physiological, psychological, motor, sensory/perceptual, cognitive, or spiritual), (2) characteristics of the environment (including cultural, social support, social determinants, and social capital, physical and natural environments, health education and public policy, assistive technology), and (3) characteristics of the activity, task, or role. The most recent edition is developed to provide therapists to identify the client’s enablers and barriers to occupational performance, and might be employed both individual and organizational/community based (Christiansen et al., 2005). PEOP pays close attention to the importance of occupational competency in order to attain occupational participation. Occupational participation in PEOP is wider compared to occupational performance as it embeds the ability to engage in preferred lifestyle choices to participate .
CONCEPTS & TEACHING STRATEGIES IN NURSE EDUCATION
Health teaching strategies in nursing are methods that nurses use to educate patients and promote health literacy
Some common health teaching strategies in nursing include:
1. Lecture: giving a presentation and reciting information to patients.
2. Mid-lecture quizzing: asking questions throughout or at the end of the lecture to assess learning.
3. Simulations: using realistic scenarios and equipment to practice skills and procedures.
Delegation: assigning more responsibilities to support staff and focusing more on patient education.
4. Assessment: finding out what the patient already knows and correcting any misinformation.

Review the Healthy People 2020 objectives for the older adult. Of the objectives listed for the older adult, which do you feel is most important? Be sure to include examples and references to support your response.
Objective: Increase the proportion of older adults with one or more chronic health conditions who report confidence in managing their conditions
(Healthy People 2020).
Chronic conditions may be difficult to manage based on the complexities of a disease. Additionally, managing one or more chronic conditions may be time consuming. Time consuming tasks may take the form of monitoring (e.g. checking blood glucose), keeping a diary, scheduling appointments, sorting and taking medications, exercising, meal planning, etc.. The Agency for Healthcare Research and Quality (2015) suggests the burden of these tasks significantly impact how patients manage their chronic conditions, and that patients often find it difficult to complete all these tasks in order to manage their condition effectively. Personally, I see examples of this every day at the hospital: Patients are not confident in their self-management ability and are therefore unable to demonstrate skill or awareness in regards to their condition. Despite receiving adequate medical attention from outstanding multidisciplinary teams, patients continue to show little interest in self-management, ultimately resulting in an overwhelming number of older adults who lack the confidence to manage one or more chronic conditions (Bodenheimer, 2005). Healthcare providers are being forced to seek new and innovative ways to connect with patients and reinforce educational material in order to give patients the confidence and skill to manage their care. I believe this objective to be most important because self-management is clinically proven to result in better outcomes. It is proven that support for patients and caregivers improve confidence in managing conditions. Recently, my hospital has added to its emphasis on education and follow up... Simply providing information to patients is not enough to build confidence, skill, nor the knowledge to manage their health. Therefore, nursing must collaborate to reinforce behaviors and promote better health outcomes in patients.
There are several vulnerable populations that have a chronic illness (older; homeless; and lesbian, gay, bisexual, and transgender populations) that face challenges when it comes to care. Choose one vulnerable population and discuss what can be done to help alleviate these challenges.
Based on recent events that have transpired in the news, one might acknowledge that refugees and immigrants are a vulnerable population... many of whom are struggling with chronic illness, and undeniably experiencing challenges related to our healthcare delivery system. Several barriers exist for this group, including language and technology barriers, expectations of medical care, cultural differences, as well as unique ...

Introduction
The primary role of a psychiatric-mental health nurse practitioner is providing psychotherapy and educating patients and families.
One of the problems that has been experienced in psychiatry is stigma, discrimination and prejudice.
This issue has presented certain effects like delay in seeking help, burnout among health care providers and poor services.
One of the theories that is relevant to the specialty is the modelling and role modelling theory.
Psychiatric-mental health nurse practitioners usually play a key role in promoting health care. Their primary role is providing psychotherapy and educating patients and families. However, patients and health care providers are facing various issues particularly stigma, discrimination and prejudice which has negatively affected the provision of health care services. The modelling and role modelling theory is one of the theories that is relevant and can greatly help to deal with the problem and may be used as a framework to guide evidence-based practice.
2
Modelling and Role Modelling Theory
It was developed by Helen Erickson, Evelyn Tomlin and Mary Anne and was published in 1983.
This theory helps health care providers to care for and nurture every patient based on their needs.
Commonalities in the theory include attachment and loss, basic needs, holism and cognitive stages.
Differences in the theory include self-care, stress, adaptation, model of the world and inherent endowment.
The modelling and role modelling theory was developed by Helen Erickson, Evelyn Tomlin and Mary Anne and was published in 1983. This is a crucial theory in nursing because it helps health care providers to care and nurture patients while upholding the awareness and respect of every patient’s uniqueness (Smith, 2019). Due to that, this theory is considered to support clinical practices that concentrate on the needs of patients. The theory looks at certain elements like attachment and loss, holism, basic needs and cognitive stages. It focuses on certain differences amongst people including stress, self-care, adaptation, model of the world and inherent endowment.
3
Relevance of the Theory
Modelling involves health care providers seeking to know and understand patients’ personal model of their world.
Health care providers learn to appreciate the value of patients’ personal model of the world and its importance.
This theory acknowledges that all human beings have unique perspectives about their world.
Health care providers are able to develop an image and understanding of patients’ perspective and personal model of the world.
The modelling and role modelling theory is relevant to my nurse practitioner specialty since it entails crucial aspects that promote the well-being of patients. During the modelling process, nurses are able to find out and comprehend the personal model of patients and learn how t.

Healthy People 2020
Healthy People was a call to action and an attempt to set health goals for the United States for the next 10 years.
Healthy People 2000 established 3 general goals:
Increase the span of healthy life.
Reduce health disparities.
Create access to preventive services for all.
Healthy People 2010 introduced 2 general goals:
Increase quality and years of healthy life.
Eliminate health disparities.
Practical Policy for Preventive Services
The U.S. health care system faces significant challenges that clearly indicate the urgent need for reform.
There is broad evidence that Americans often do not get the care they need even though the United States spends more money per person on health care than any other nation in the world.
Preventive care is underutilized, resulting in higher spending on complex, advanced diseases.
Practical Policy for Preventive Services
Patients with chronic diseases too often do not receive proven and effective treatments such as drug therapies or self management services to help them more effectively manage their conditions.
These problems are exacerbated by a lack of coordination of care for patients with chronic diseases.
Reforming our health care delivery system to improve the quality and value of care is essential to address escalating costs, poor quality, and increasing numbers of Americans without health insurance coverage.
Why policies need to be developed?
Basic needs are not being met (e.g., People are not receiving the health care they need)
People are not being treated fairly (e.g., People with disabilities do not have access to public places)
Resources are distributed unfairly (e.g., Educational services are more limited in neighborhoods of concentrated poverty)
Why policies need to be developed?
Current policies or laws are not enforced or effective (e.g., The current laws on clean water are neither enforced nor effective)
Proposed changes in policies or laws would be harmful (e.g., A plan to eliminate flextime in a large business would reduce parents' ability to be with their children)
Existing or emerging conditions pose a threat to public health, safety, education, or well-being (e.g., New threats from terrorist activity)

The Roman Empire A Historical Colossus.pdf
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.
A Strategic Approach: GenAI in Education
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.

Profile Picture1 posts ReTopic 2 DQ 1It is essentia.docx
- 1. Profile Picture 1 posts Re:Topic 2 DQ 1 It is essential to note that we actually live in a diverse nation and overcoming the shortcomings associated with cultural preferences and beliefs is a big obstacle for healthcare professionals today. In the article “Health Disparity and Cultural Conflict” cultural diversity is singled out to be more than one race. It is important for healthcare workers to know that addressing cultural diversity is far more than just understanding the values, practices, customs, and beliefs (Hughes, 2011). Apart from national origin and racial classification, there are various kinds of cultural diversity and these include language, age, religious affiliation, and geographical location. Healthcare providers are expected to diligently accommodate the varying needs of the individuals they meet in their service provision. The needs actually range from the different cultural backgrounds to the learning styles and preferences as well as the mixed opinions that define their health and well-being (Lochman, 2012). The issue of language barrier is a big problem to many healthcare providers. Nurses are normally exposed to various beliefs and cultures as they work in their healthcare fields. Apart from diversity, it is important to consider the level of education plus the style of learning. This will enable the nurse to formulate the best teaching method relevant for the patient. Patients with various cultural differences can sometimes not be willing to take part in education or take in the teachings. In order to initiate any
- 2. formal kind of teaching, trust must be developed (Campinha, 2003). Nurses should assess the values and ideas related to the illness and health of the patients, treatment provided, medication being taken, and the expectations to ensure effective teaching or learning. Healthcare professional should pay very close attention to the cultural needs of their patients including expression and language. For example, a Chinese patient who has been disregarding signs unusual signs and symptoms of rectal bleeding for a long time. He has come to the hospital and diagnosed with colon cancer. The early treatment process however needs colon resection. The treatment process is discussed with the patient and risk also explained, particularly blood loss. In the process of surgery, the patient loses a lot of blood and the level of haemoglobin reduces below the normal range. This required immediate blood transfusion. However, the culture of the patient did not accept blood transfusion. The transfusion process had to be delayed since the patient refused. Such kind of cultural affiliations can affect the manner which care delivery is done and providers must be aware of them and teach the patients. Teaching should actually be a multidisciplinary team work which includes social work, dietician, and therapy department. Nurses should also be aware of their own values and beliefs before interacting with the various different cultures and accommodate them effectively. Healthcare workers can overcome the shortcomings of cultural differences by accommodating the needs of every patient (Lachman, 2012).The issue of language barrier would require an interpreter service to ensure that the patient has a solid understanding of the diagnosis, the treatment process, the signs and symptoms, and education that follow up the treatment process. Religious beliefs are another big obstacle that healthcare providers face in addition to cultural preferences. Healthcare providers should be very responsive in their abilities to develop a flexible learning environment for the various diverse encounters in their career.
