For this assignment you are to write a 3-4 page paper (excluding the title and reference page) in proper APA style. Please do not exceed 4 pages for the paper. Grading will cease at the end of page 4. To earn full credit for this assignment you will need to address all the items in the grading rubric located in My Grades. Late papers will not be accepted. Check the course schedule for the due date for the paper.You need to have a proper title page, use in-text citation for sources of information used in the paper, and a reference list page. It is expected that you will use pertinent information from at least 2 sources outside of the textbook and reference them properly. Please review the plagiarism powerpoint in the week one folder. Using information in your paper without a citation is plagiarism and may result in 0/150 regardless of intent.Your paper must include a short discussion of case study. This is a fictional case which offers you some latitude in the case details. Your introduction can be very brief but it is needed to introduce the reader to the topic. Briefly develop some options for using ventilators as a scarce resource during the stress of a pandemic. Include in your paper an ethical theory that would support your plan.Identify the ethical principles involved in this study and where they came into conflict. This is the opportunity to present the ethical argument in your discussion of the ethical principles. Be sure to include all the principles that apply in this issue to earn full points.The ANA code of ethics has valuable guidance to navigate decision making. Identify at least 2 provisions of the ANA code and apply them to the case study.You will need to present an opposing view to your position. As part of an ethical argument the opposing view will need to be supported by an ethical theory or principle. Part of the ethical argument should include a refutation of the opposing view.Also, address the legal issue of malpractice as required by the grading rubric.Have a concise conclusion to your paper that does not introduce new ideas or information but summarizes what was discussed in the paper.Please proofread your work for grammar and spelling errors. A great way to improve the flow of a paper is to read it out loud. Often when we read our work silently we insert words where they are missing or do not hear the awkwardness of a particular sentence.And most importantly, review the grading rubric before beginning and submitting the assignment.Ventilator Case StudyThe following case study is borrowed from a collection of case studies published in 2011.Allocating Mechanical Ventilators During a Severe Influenza PandemicMarilee LeBon is an infectious disease nurse with a special interest in bioethics. She hasserved for years on her hospitals ethics committee and recently volunteered to representthe hospital on a statewide committee meeting to develop guidelines for allocatingmechanical ventilators during a severe influenza pandemic. She understands that during asevere pandemic of influenza, many patients with respiratory failure who are able toreceive mechanical ventilation may survive, while patients with respiratory failure who donot receive mechanical ventilation are likely to die. Importantly, it is possible that in theevent of a severe pandemic of influenza, many hospitals and other healthcare facilities willnot have adequate numbers of ventilators to support a major disaster response.If a scarcity of ventilators occurs during a severe influenza pandemic, ventilators wouldneed to be allocated according to different guidelines than during usual clinical care.During a public health emergency, there will be competing priorities for ventilator use frompatients whose need for a ventilator is unrelated to influenza, including the need forchronic ventilator use. In addition, decisions will need to be made regarding whetherpatients should be removed from a ventilator to make way for others who may have abetter chance of recovery and whether there should be suspension of nonemergency surgicalprocedures that might create a need for ventilator therapy.Ms. LeBons first challenge is to work on a subcommittee charged with articulating theethical framework they will use. Address the following questions / prompts in your paper:1. What role should the ethical principle of justice play in dictating who should get access to the scarce ventilator therapy?2. Analyze a conflict between two ethical principles (other than justice) that could occur regarding the priority of whom receives a ventilator.3. Apply deontology and utilitarianism to the case study to support an ethical argument.4. Apply at least two provisions of the ANA Code of Ethics to aid Marilee in decision making.

Consider how well the policy has met the needs of your target population and to what extent it improves the social justice problem you initially researched.
Policy AnalysisAssignment OverviewThis assignment builds on the previous components of this research project, where you identified a social problem and selected a federal policy that affects it. THE LAST ANALYSIS I DID WAS ON NATIVE AMERICANS SO I WOULD LIKE TO KEEP IT WITHIN A FEDERAL POLICY RELATED TO NATIVE AMERICANSOnce social workers have located a policy that addresses a social problem, the next step is to analyze the policys development and potential impacts. In other words, does the policy resolve or mitigate the issue? Looking at Chinas one-child policy, you would want to know whether it is indeed reducing fertility rates. Next, you would want to know if the policy has any unintended consequences that must also be addressed. For example, Chinas one-child policy has led to significant labor shortages in the country.By successfully completing this assignment, you will demonstrate your proficiency in the following EPAs and practice behaviors:Competency 5: Engage in Policy PracticeC5.GP.A: Identify social policy at the local, state, and federal level that impacts well-being, service delivery, and access to social service.Related Assignment Criterion:1.

Identify the policy constraints that inhibit the policy from fully addressing the problem for the chosen population.Assignment DescriiptionIn this assignment, you will analyze the federal policy you chose to address your social justice issue, including providing background of the development of the policy and evaluating its effectiveness and feasibility. Remember that the feasibility of a policy relates not only to its economic feasibility, but also to its political and social impact. You will also identify the policy constraints that inhibit the policy from most effectively reaching your targeted population.Continue to consult Congress.gov, the Government Accountability Office, public policy analysis research and reports, and other peer-reviewed research to support your analysis. Also, use the NASW Code of Ethics Web page to guide your analysis.Assignment InstructionsFor this assignment:Analyze the development of your chosen federal policy.Analyze the historical background that led to the development of the policy.Define the goals of the policy and how these goals are intended to be met, including services and programs intended to achieve the goals.Evaluate the effectiveness of the policy with respect to the target population.Consider how well the policy has met the needs of your target population and to what extent it improves the social justice problem you initially researched. Does the policy seem to ignore, impede, or strengthen the social functioning of the target population?To what extent does the policy meet or improve the social values of the target population?To what extent does the policy adhere to best practice ethics and best practice standards?If the outcome of your analysis is that best practice ethics and standards are not being adhered to, include that information in your analysis as well.Evaluate the feasibility of the policy.Is the policy politically, economically, and administratively feasible? Provide details and rationale.Identify the policy constraints that inhibit the policy from fully addressing the problem for the chosen population. Have other constraints arisen since the passage of the policy that have made conditions worse or better for the chosen population?GuidelinesSupport your claims and recommendation with clear rationale and support from scholarly, peer-reviewed literature.Refer to the scoring guide that will be used to grade your work, before completing this assignment.Reference feedback you received from the previous assignment to improve the quality of your submission. Further feedback from this project component will help you improve your work for the final Federal Policy Analysis and Recommendations course project.Example assignment: You may use the assignment example, linked in the Resources, to give you an idea of what a Proficient or higher rating on the scoring guide would look like.
