Describe the differences between a board of nursing and a professional nurse association.
Nursing is a very highly regulated profession. There are over 100 boards of nursing and national nursing associations throughout the United States and its territories. Their existence helps regulate, inform, and promote the nursing profession. With such numbers, it can be difficult to distinguish between BONs and nursing associations, and overwhelming to consider various benefits and options offered by each.Both boards of nursing and national nursing associations have significant impacts on the nurse practitioner profession and scope of practice. Understanding these differences helps lend credence to your expertise as a professional. In this Assignment, you will practice the application of such expertise by communicating a comparison of boards of nursing and professional nurse associations. You will also share an analysis of your state board of nursing.To Prepare:Assume that you are leading a staff development meeting on regulation for nursing practice at your healthcare organization or agency.Review the NCSBN and ANA websites to prepare for your presentation.The Assignment: (8- to 9-slide PowerPoint presentation)Develop a 8- to 9-slide PowerPoint Presentation that addresses the following:Describe the differences between a board of nursing and a professional nurse association.Describe the board for your specific region/area.Who is on the board?How does one become a member of the board?Describe at least one state regulation related to general nurse scope of practice.How does this regulation influence the nurses role?How does this regulation influence delivery, cost, and access to healthcare?Describe at least one state regulation related to Advanced Practice Registered Nurses (APRNs).How does this regulation influence the nurses role?How does this regulation influence delivery, cost, and access to healthcare?Include Speaker Notes on Each Slide (except on the title page and reference page)
What process was used to identify the genetic composition?
Reply to two prompts in 100 words each. No sites needed, these are just thoughts on the prompts.(Original prompt for you consideration,An important characteristic of a medical professional is to make sense of information and then continue to ask questions to collect additional information. You will practice this as you respond to this weeks question. For each of the following, answer the question and then describe what additional questions you might be able to investigate to gain additional information that might enhance your understanding.What is its genetic composition?What process was used to identify the genetic composition?How has this information been used to identify treatments?)Prompt 1: TheC. trachomatisgenome is substantially smaller than that of many other bacteria encoding approximately 900 genes.Several important metabolic functions are not encoded in theC. trachomatisgenome, and instead, are likely scavenged from the host cell.In addition to the chromosome that contains most of the genome, nearly allC. trachomatisstrains carry a 7.5kilobase plasmidthat contains 8 genes.The role of this plasmid is unknown, though strains without the plasmid have been isolated, suggesting it is not required for survival of the bacterium. According to our text in Chapter 10, the size of a bacteriums genome directly relates to how much the bacterium depends on its host for survival. When a bacterium relies on the host cell to carry out certain functions, it loses the genes encoding the abilities to carry out those functions itself. From a clinical perspective, obligate intracellular pathogens also tend to have small genomes (some around Because host cells supply most of their nutrients, they tend to have a reduced number of genes encoding metabolic functions. The size of the genomes of the organism Chlamydia trachomatis is (1.0 million).Chlamydiaalternates between two morphological forms, the elementary body (EB) and the reticulate body (RB). EBs are extra-cellular, metabolically inert forms, responsible for dissemination of infection by their ability to attach to and invade susceptible cells.Prompt 2: I have been discussing Staphylococcus aureus for the last two weeks in my posts. It was first discovered in 1880 by Alexander Ogston when he noticed that clusters of bacteria were present in the pus of a surgical abscess.S. Aureus is a gram- positive round shaped bacterium that is also a facultative anaerobe, which means it doesnt need oxygen to survive. It is found in grape-like clusters called staphylococci, which can be see when it is looked at under a microscope. S. aureus is produced by binary fission.In order to identify S. Aureus, a sample is taken and sent to a lab to undergo enzyme-based tests. A gram stain is performed and followed by a culture, done by using a salt/agar solution.As a result, yellow-colored colonies begin to form.For susceptible strains of S. Aureus penicillin is the antibiotic that is used to treat this infection. It is able to block the production of peptidoglycan connections, which make up the cell wall of this bacteria. Ultimately, this upsets the balance of cell wall formation and leads to the death of the cells. Penicillin does not work for all strains in present day.Up to 90% of strains are now penicillin resistant.

What impact has there been, if any, on the publics perceptions and beliefs about criminal behavior and the impact on law enforcement investigations, prosecution and trials due to the use of psychological profiling?
Psychological profiling is not a new concept. It has been practiced for centuries and has been the foundation of popular fiction from Sherlock Holmes to Clarice Starling. TheSnook, Cullen, Bennell, Taylor, & Gendreau(2008) andKocsis(2003) articles outline many of the preconceptions and misperceptions surrounding the field of forensic psychology as it is used in contemporary law enforcement. Television programs such asLaw and Order,NCIS,Criminal Mindsand theMentalisthave made psychological profiling a popular pastime. While the line between fact and fiction can often be thin and tenuous, the impacts that fiction and/or misinformation can have on reality can be enormous. What impact has there been, if any, on the publics perceptions and beliefs about criminal behavior and the impact on law enforcement investigations, prosecution and trials due to the use of psychological profiling? Are these impacts positive or negative? Provide an example from your review of a scholarly journal to support your discussion.
Why would an approach based on monocultural psychology be considered limiting when attempting to deal with a more diverse population?
According to statistics, by the year 2050, 50% of the U.S. population is expected to consist of ethnic minorities. As the United States continues to move toward an increasingly pluralistic society, cultural nuances and differentiation must be acknowledged in the application and practice of forensic psychology. In Chapter 10 of the Bartol & Bartol (2019) text, the issues pertaining to multiculturalism are discussed.As you examine the many issues pertinent to a pluralistic society, answer the following questions in your post:Why would an approach based on monocultural psychology be considered limiting when attempting to deal with a more diverse population?What obstacles could be in existence that could potentially prevent or discourage an immigrant from seeking assistance from social services or mental health facilities?Of the current ethnic groups existing within the U.S., which population has been identified as being the most diverse and challenging for those within the mental health community?Guided Response:Your initial post should be at least 300 words in length. Support your observations with examples from the required materials and/or other scholarly resources, and properly cite any references. Respond to at least two or your colleagues posts by Day 7. Continue to monitor the discussion forum until 5:00 p.m. Mountain Time) on Day 7, and respond with robust dialogue to anyone who replies to your initial post.
