Consider how these epidemiologic measures strengthen and support nursing practice.

One important application of epidemiology is to identify factors that could increase the likelihood of a certain health problem occurring within a specific population. Epidemiologists use measures of effect to examine the association or linkage in the relationship between risk factors and emergence of disease or ill health. For instance, they may use measures of effect to better understand the relationships between poverty and lead poisoning in children, smoking and heart disease, or low birth weight and future motor skills. The following are some common measures used in epidemiology: Odds ratio: The odds ratio quantifies the association between an independent variable (exposure) and a dependent variable (outcome). It is calculated as the odds that an effect will occur given the presence or exposure to a studied variable, compared to the odds when there is no exposure (e.g., lung cancer and smoking)Risk ratio (also called relative risk): Also quantifies the association between an independent variable and a dependent variable. The risk of an effect occurring in one population versus another population (e.g., preeclampsia in women <35 versus >35). Risks greater than one suggest that exposure to a given variable is associated with an increase in the risk of the outcome, and a risk ratio of less than one indicates that the exposure is associated with a decrease in the risk of the outcome.Mortality: Measure of deaths in a particular population during a specified time interval. If this is attributed to a specific cause, it is referred to as cause-specific mortality.Morbidity: Measure of instances of illness or disability in a population from a given cause (e.g., heart disease) during a specified time intervalIncidence: The occurrence of new cases of an effect or disease in a population over a defined time period relative to the size of the population at risk (e.g., new cases of COVID-19 in a population over a 7-day period/1000 people)Prevalence: The number of all cases of an effect or disease, not just new ones, in a population at a given time relative to the size of the population (e.g., number of people with autism/1000)What is the significance of these measures of effect for nursing practice? In this Discussion, you will consider this pivotal question.To prepare:Choose two of the following measures of effect to use for this Discussion. Consider the definitions, differences, and utility of each.Odds ratio and risk ratioMortality and morbidityIncidence and prevalenceConsider how these epidemiologic measures strengthen and support nursing practice.Assess practice limitations of not using these measures in nursing practice.Conduct additional research in the Walden Library and other credible resources, and then locate two examples in the scholarly literature that support your insights.By Day 3 of Week 5Post a cohesive scholarly response that addresses the following:Explain how your selected measures of effect strengthen and support nursing practice.

Discuss why each provision is needed.

Medicare Payment System Provisions (THE ATTACHED FILE IS THE BOOK PAGE 114-115 FOR THE QUESTIONS BELOW)Prospective payment system rates are based on national “average” cost figures. Taking the national average cost into consideration, CMS sets base rates for each payment system. The payment systems then add provisions or adjustments to the system to account for situations where the cost of an individual encounter or service may be higher or lower than the national average.Pick three provisions from the Medicare Hospital Outpatient Payment System discussed in chapter 7.Remember to use a source (even if it’s the textbook) Discuss why each provision is needed.What would happen if the provision were discontinued?How would this impact facilities or providers?How would this impact the Medicare beneficiary?the 5 options of provisions to pick are: 1. interrupted services2. high-cost outlier3. rural hospital adjustment4. cancer hospital adjustment5. pass-through payment policy(i just need 1 page)

Does this trait exist in friction with the usual associations viewers might have with setting (e.g., a grossly messy, beautiful, affluent suburban home, or an extremely luxurious dorm room)?

Creative Exercise 1: Mise en SceneEstablishing Character For this exercise, you will take on the role of a production designer (and screenwriter), constructing a fictional character through describing the mise en scene of their bedroom. Who is this bedroom’s inhabitant? What do we know about them based on this space? Your description of the mise en scene will need to communicate this to the film crew who will shoot the project and to the audience who will see the completed film. Do not tell us anything about this character or their physical traits–only describe their room. Don’t tell us their name, their hair color, their voice, etc. Your classmates/TA/professor will need to be able to surmise who this person is by virtue of the mise en scene. Through your description, the reader should be able to have a very good picture of this person’s identity, personality, and maybe even goals, life story, etc. You should create your own fictional movie character (not one from an existing film). Do not describe your own bedroom. You’ll need to negotiate: The character’s individual identity. Are they extremely tidy? Messy? Does this trait exist in friction with the usual associations viewers might have with setting (e.g., a grossly messy, beautiful, affluent suburban home, or an extremely luxurious dorm room)? What can you tell about their job from their room (student, priest, artist)?Their place within larger social and cultural structures. Is this space specific to a country or region? Urban or rural? Are there particular cultural markers? How would you create an environment that’s recognizable to an audience, while avoiding stereotypes? Keep in mind Shohat’s contention that ethnicities in film are ubiquitous, if often submerged. You may specify the location, or instead give hints for the audience to determine the location. The genre of the work this set would appear in. Is this science fiction? If so, what kind (space opera, art film)? Is it a gritty, realist portrayal of New York City life? Time period. When are we? New York in the mid-1970s would be very different from New York in the late 1980s, for example. Issues around stardom and casting. Who do you see playing this role? A known, unknown, or non-professional actor? Are you casting according to type? Against type? A performer at the height of their fame, or someone whose fame has faded, but who evokes a particular meaning for the film (e.g., John Travolta in Pulp Fiction, Winona Ryder in Stranger Things—see this Flavorwire article on “nostalgia casting (Links to an external site.):”).Some advice provided: You don’t have to create a teen or child character, but for other sources of inspiration, I would also point you to Adrienne Salinger’s photography book, In My Room: Teenagers in Their Bedrooms (Links to an external site.), which was photographed in the 1980s and ‘90s. Also, the James Mollison photography project, Where Children Sleep (Links to an external site.), offers a comparative view of children’s sleeping spaces (not all of them are rooms) around the world. It’s a remarkable project in many ways, but you can also consider whether it falls into certain stereotypes and how you might avoid doing so in your work. Reflect on how social class, gender, culture, and personality are evoked through the decor and objects. You can also consider the number of film professionals who would be involved in constructing the fictional versions of these spaces.

Do you agree with their conclusions? Are there other factors that could be considered?

As ports in Florida are prepared for the Panama Canal expansion, there is significant involvement by the private sector. Discuss the dynamics of this IGR initiative and its potential impact (benefits and challenges) from a societal perspective. Do you feel that the benefits to society (e.g., economic growth) outweigh the drawbacks in this case? Why or why not?Back in 2010 the USDA published a report called the IMPACT OF PANAMA CANAL EXPANSION ON THE U.S. INTERMODAL SYSTEM that indicates that the expansion of the Panama Canal allows for the potential for trade to be diverted to the East Coast from the traditional West Coast ports. This was 6 years before the canal was completed but the US was invested in the expanded import and export options the expanded canal would provide.The expansion of the Panama Canal which was completed in 2016 added a third lane which allowed for larger ships to use the canal because as we know most US imports come via ship of some kind. The expansion of the canal also allowed for US produced natural gas to be shipped to places such as Asia which increases revenue to the US. “The waterway annually registers nearly 14,000 transits, a value equal to 6 percent of global trade.” “The United States remains the top user of the Canal—in 2019, 66 percent of the cargo traffic transiting the Canal began or ended its journey at a U.S. port” (Runde 2021) That amount of transit is quite significant to the global market.It is hard to overlook the jobs that this expansion created for those who live and work close to the ports of entry in the Gulf of Mexico for example. According to the Port of Tampa Bay’s website a 2015 study showed that the “Port Tampa Bay supports more than 85,000 direct, indirect, induced and related jobs annually throughout the west central Florida region.” I have seen the Port of Tampa by air many times and the improvements that were made in response to the expansion of the canal were very noticeable though I was very much not aware of what I was looking at at the time, but now after reading these articles I can distinctly remember watching the shift happen over the years (we go to FL every year).While jobs are very important to our economic stability and the expanded shipping options does help to reduce the cost of good to the consumer, I worry about the impacts of this expansion on the environment. I was able to find some sources that referred to rising sea levels in the Caribbean, but I could not confirm if they were reputable sources. But it is something that I would like to know more about if any of my peers is able to find a reputable source. I did come across a National Geographic that looked promising, but you had to subscribe to read.

What are the issues or problems facing the organization?

Select, research, and analyze a real organization (public, private, or non-profit). You may select an organization in which you have worked or have been a member. Examine a problem or issue of concern within that organization. Be selective in choosing an issue or problem within an organization, as a lack of depth in the issue itself will not be an acceptable excuse for lack of depth in the analysis. The purpose of this CLA is to apply both what has been learned in the course as well as your own independent research to problems in an organization of your choice. Focus on an issue or problem that the organization is facing and is relevant to the content of this course. It will likely take several reflection sessions to identify a problem or issue that can be clearly defined, is manageable in scope, and is relevant to the course, so start this CLA weeks before it is due. Gather information while supplementing this information with data from the media, the organization’s literature, and other secondary sources. You should identify a relatively recent problem to analyze (i.e., this should not be an historical account of a problem and the company’s solution). You should focus your analysis by applying the concepts from the course. While it is acceptable to incorporate several concepts from the course, please aim for depth rather than breadth regarding the use of course concepts. To meet these broad goals, answer the following questions in a 4 to 6 page APA formatted written report supported by at least three (3) academic sources:1) What are the issues or problems facing the organization?2) What theoretical concepts from this course can be applied to understand why this problem is occurring? 3) What recommendations can you offer to help improve organizational functioning?
