Compare the scientific approach to management with the human relations movement and discuss the implications for the understanding of management and organization. Last year, in very few cases students did not provide a scientific essay (either not using any literature at all, only non-scientific internet sources, or listing a few references without indicating their use in the text). In these cases I rejected the essay as being non-scientific and therefore not meeting the exam requirements. Evaluation criteria • Structure of the essay: One of the materials provided in Blackboard says: “(E)ssays should make an argument: your essay should have a point and reach a conclusion, even if tentative, and you should try to convince the reader that your point is correct.” o Statement: From the above it becomes clear that you need to provide a clear statement about the point that your essay is going to make. Without such a statement it will be impossible for me to evaluate whether your main section convincingly argues for your statement and whether your conclusion connects to the purpose of your essay. o Main part of the text: Please note that the following statements require different ways of argumentations in the main part of the essay: • “I argue that gender has nothing to do with good leadership.”, • “Women are better leaders depending on the situation.” • “Asking whether women are better leaders is meaningless since such a question only serves reinforcing the use of gender stereotypes.” o Conclusion: ‘Does the conclusion connect to the statement?’, will be the question that I ask here. Or does that final part of the essay draw a conclusion unrelated to the statement made in the introduction or unrelated to what has been written in the main section?

How important is the inclusion of complementary and alternative health care practices into plans of care? As a nurse, what can you do to help improve the implementation of these practices? Consider the following aspects of health care when responding: Population-based nursing Insurance coverage of the practices Affordable Health Care Act Evidence-based practice Patient outcomes Use references within the past 5 years

The nurse manager has asked a group of nurses to train all staff on the regulatory issues that affect patient privacy and confidentiality related to the new system. You have used computers to complete medical records at another facility, so you are going to be conducting this training and preparing a summary paper on the topic for your colleagues. Write a 2-page paper on the following: Identify 1 regulation that affects the use of health care information. Write a paper discussing all of the following: The history of the regulation (why or how it came into being) The effect of the regulation on the behaviors and actions of nurses The effect of the regulation on the delivery of health care

The title of the opera under analysis is “The Tale of Tsar Saltan.” Moreover, did you see that the section about the piece edition carries the largest weighting?

The nurses on your unit have been discussing and debating the best ways to provide care for patients when they are discharged from your unit. You are wondering how to achieve the best standard of practice for patient education in your specialty area, so you decide to formulate a PICO question and conduct a literature search on this topic. Submit a paper of 2–3 pages in APA format that addresses the following items: Develop a clinical question for study using the PICO format. P: a population or a group of patients, for example patients with insulin dependent diabetes I: an intervention, such as patient education programs C: a comparison intervention or treatment, such as home visits by a nurse O: patient outcomes For example: Do educational programs for diabetics on insulin or home visits to a diabetic do more to support control of blood sugar? For example: Do patient educational classes for asthmatic patients lead to improved functional status (decrease hospitalizations)? (Note: In this example, there is no comparison treatment.) Using MEDLINE/PubMed (using MeSH) and CINAHL do the following: Conduct a systematic search for relevant research findings on your topic or question. List the words that you entered to perform each search. List the number of findings that were returned. Identify the steps that you took to narrow the search to more precise findings. Describe at least 3 sources of relevant literature findings on your PICO question. You should be able to locate the article in full text or an abstract of the study. Select research findings that most closely fit the PICO question that you posed Cite the references. Now, research your PICO question using this scholarly search engine. List the number of “hits” that were returned. How does this search engine rate and rank the reference articles that it lists in a search? How does this search engine ranking system aid researchers as they seek information? Explain the following: What steps can a researcher use to narrow the search for information on a clinical topic? Why is it necessary to narrow a search? Which search did you find to be the most effective and useful on this clinical topic, and what made it effective for you? What is the difference between a search engine and a database for locating relevant practice information? Select a preferred search tool, and identify the rationale for your preference.
