Since sister Mary is a Nun within the Roman Catholic church there is a high probability she prefers faith based medical care which not only encompasses science-based medicine but religion as well. Many aspects of modern medicine are cohesive with the Christian faith; however, she may require assistance in decision making through support from church leaders, another nun or support from her Mother Superior. The above-mentioned diagnostic plan may not compromise her religious views but offering additional support reduces the stress she may be experiencing, especially in the emergency department which allows her to be more focused and engaged when it comes to her discharge teachings. Depending on how Sister Mary functions within the church, her life in general, and following the incident which brought her to the ED she may need a caregiver present to assist with care and discharge teaching or someone who can make decisions for her. The ED nurse is responsible for assessing level of consciousness, GCS and potentially a NIH to determine her cognitive functioning and adjust care accordingly. If Sister Mary is admitted into the inpatient unit these care adjustments should be relayed during report to the inpatient nurse. Additionally, the ED nurse can put in a consult for pastoral/spiritual services to be involved in care if the patient or patient representative wishes, or if the visitor policy allows having her own religious leaders present during hospitalization.

As healthcare professionals increasing our knowledge of different religions and spiritual beliefs can help us understand how a patient might make healthcare chooses. Roman Catholic religion believes health is to be understood holistically (Hamel, 1996). This means to treat the whole patient mind, body, and sole. When caring for Sister Mary assessing her life situations will help identify and understand her beliefs, perspectives, and priorities. The use of patient-centered teaching will help with identifying psychosocial factors and incorporate them along with helping to establish a trusting relationship. During initial assessment acknowledging Sister Mary’s religious views can help the healthcare professional be more culturally sensitive. The healthcare professional should try not to force their religious ideas on to their patients because it can cause the patient additional stress. With knowledge of the catholic religion, Sister Mary may want to keep her crucifix or rosary beads when going to each medical procedure making her healthcare experience more pleasant.

Throughout your lives and when interacting with others, you may encounter or participate in situations when technology and ethics collide. The Assignment in this unit gives topical examples to challenge your thinking on ethical behavior. In addition, you will see how information technology can be used as an enabler.

Select three of the five topics from the short essay questions at end of Chapter 5 in your text. Write 1–2-page paper on each topic using APA formatting.

Topic 1: A federal statute requires banks to give their customers “quick access” to funds from deposited checks. Given the problems we have seen with counterfeit checks, do you think this is a good law? Carefully assess all sides of the issue. If you could influence the federal government, how would you advise it to change or improve the law?

Topic 2: Reports on computer crime (not including software piracy and hacking among computer crimes) in newspapers and journals seem to be decreasing. Do as thorough a search as you can for, say, the past six months and document the most recently reported occurrences. Does a pattern seem to emerge about the kinds of reported computer crime that are popular this year?

Topic 3: If you were the manager of a bank, how would you try to protect your bank against computerized embezzlement and fraud?

Topic 4: You run a big insurance company, and you are concerned about security. You have the opportunity to hire someone who pulled off a $4 million computer “heist” from another insurance company, has “paid his debt to society,” and is just coming off his six-month stint in jail. Would you hire him as the security expert to protect your company? Discuss.

Topic 5: Chapter 4 deals with software piracy, this chapter deals with computer crime, and Chapter 6 deals with hacking and computer break-ins. Carefully examine the similarities and differences among these three classes of “computer abuse.”

Unit outcomes addressed in this Assignment:

  • Describe current events where ethical issues play a fundamental role.
  • Compare ethical issues where information was an influence.
  • Explain ethical concerns where new technology is used in an organization.

Course outcomes addressed in this Assignment:

IT400-2: Evaluate a broad array of topics including privacy, free speech, information security and law.

Instructions

Each of the three documents should be at least 1–2 pages, double spaced, and, include title and reference pages. It must follow APA Style and contain no spelling or grammar errors. Submit to the Unit 4 Dropbox upon completion.

Select three out of the five topics from the short essay questions at end of Chapter 5 in your text. Write a 1–2-page paper on each topic using APA formatting.

Nurses make up one of the largest work forces in the world.  Being so, nurses have the potential to significantly influence healthcare policy and related politics on a global scale.  By assuming a political advocacy role, nurses can use their influence to improve healthcare delivery by effecting policy.  Until recently, nurses were reluctant to involve themselves in the political arena for a multitude of reasons.  However, things are rapidly beginning to change.  Policy making has become a recognized term within the nursing profession and nurses are beginning to feel a sort of obligation/duty to engage in healthcare policy/legislation.  The purpose of this post is to explain at least two opportunities for RN’s and APRN’s to actively participate in policy making; explain some of the challenges they may face; explain how one would over come these challenges; and recommend two strategies one might make to become a better advocate.

Opportunities for nurses to engage in policy making is increasing by the day.  Organizations like the American Nurses Association is making engagement as simple as a few clicks.  The ANA’s action center highlights key healthcare issues that impact the nursing profession and makes it simple to contact policy makers concerning issues that are important to you (ANA, 2021).  Another opportunity involves donating/contributing to the ANA’s Political Action Committee (PAC).  The contributions are used to help elect or re-elect leaders who will whole-heartedly advocate for nurses and their patients on a congressional level (ANA, 2021).

Fortunately, the ANA makes it quite easy for one to become an advocate and share their thoughts, opinions and/or voice with lawmakers.  All one has to do is submit and email account address and click send.  Upon doing so and automatic email message will be sent to lawmakers in support of your chosen stance.  The ANA also makes it easy to contribute to re-election or the election of nurse leaders and champions.  One, if already any ANA must simply click the “contribute” tab, follow simple instructions and ultimately donate an agreed upon amount of funds.
