Global Health Competencies in the Nursing Curriculum
Please read the textbook and the Covid-19 articles (in the week 1 reading area of Canvas) before preparing your comments.
Initial Post: It is critical that nurse educators consider the context in which teaching and learning take place. This assures the relevance of the mission and purpose of the educational program. It is important to maintain congruence between the mission, vision, etc. and the course objectives/content. The Covid-19 crisis brought to the forefront the need for nursing curricula to reflect changing trends. The pandemic dramatically changed nursing education. To explore this premise, please address the following:
Part 1: Review DCN’s mission, vision, purpose, core values, and philosophy. Are these inclusive enough to reflect a response to the pandemic, or where might you make changes? Cite a few specific examples.
Part 2: For this discussion, review the courses from the BSN programs on pp. 25-27 of the DCN catalog and their descriptions on pp.84-97. Identify three nursing courses where you could include content and experiences related to the current Covid-19 pandemic. Describe how you would do this, including the teaching/learning strategies you would use. Think beyond the obvious infection control or pathophysiology content and consider the complexities of the Covid-19 experience. Provide at least one source from a peer reviewed nursing journal that supports your choices. Cite your sources using APA and create a working link from the URL/DOI so others can easily review them..
Response Posts: Read all of the initial posts and respond as something interests you. Contribute to the discussion with your own original opinions or interpretation of the course materials. To meet the rubric requirements, you need a minimum of two peer responses. However, additional back and forth interaction may be required to achieve the maximum number of points on the rubric under Classroom Engagement. Agree and disagree with each other but explain why. Provide feedback. Have your fellow students’ ideas changed yours?

To develop an understanding of how individual institutions of higher education interpret and initiate policy based on federal mandates, you will choose one policy put into place or revised by the federal government in the last ten years and follow it from the initial decision to institutional implementation at two institutions of higher education in the same state. You will analyze the rationale for and significance of the mandate at the federal level and the refinement at all levels of the chain of command (Federal/State/System/University/College) and how faculty, staff, and students were affected at the university/college level of those two institutions.

What would an Ethical Egoist say about euthanasia topic? What side would the Ethical Egoist take? What would the Ethical Egoist say to justify their moral position? Is there a conflict between loyalty to self and to community relevant to your topic?
This assignment is the first step in a three part project. You only need to focus on part one at this point. Each step will build on earlier steps. However, it is not a matter of providing a rough draft of all or even part of the entire project here in week three. That is, further steps might require completely new and original text. At the same time, completing each step will aid you in completing a future step or future steps. And, you should use the same topic in all steps.
First, select a topic of moral controversy, debate, disagreement, and dispute, Examples of such topics are euthanasia, the death penalty, abortion, cloning, etc. You can pick any such topic. It need not be listed here.
Next, detail the positions of each side of the ethical debate. Note at least two moral reasons each side presents to show their view on the topic is correct.
Now, we want to evaluate these positions using the moral theories we studied this week:
What would an Ethical Egoist say about euthanasia topic? What side would the Ethical Egoist take? What would the Ethical Egoist say to justify their moral position? Is there a conflict between loyalty to self and to community relevant to your topic? If so, how so? Note what you feel is the best course of action.
What would a Social Contract Ethicist say about this topic? What side would the Social Contract Ethicist take? What would the Social Contract Ethicist say to justify their moral position? Does your topic involve a collision between personal obligations and national ones? If so, how so? Note what you feel is the best course of action.
Finally, reference and discuss any professional code of ethics relevant to your topic such as the AMA code for doctors, the ANA code for nurses, or any other pertinent professional code. State whether and how your chosen topic involves any conflicts between professional and familial duties.
