What characteristics would lead a provider to suspect domestic violence, child abuse, or elder abuse is taking place within a family

Topic 5 DQ 2

What characteristics would lead a provider to suspect domestic violence, child abuse, or elder abuse is taking place within a family? Discuss your facility’s procedure for reporting these types of abuse.

Violence and abuse is described as any intentional physical, mental, or psychological harm inflicted on a vulnerable person. This includes punching, berating, screaming, and other types of intentional cruelty. Domestic violence also involves threats or mild verbal or physical attacks, and victims seek to comply with the abuser’s demands. Victims feel trapped, reliant, helpless, and powerless. They can experience depression as a result of being stuck in the abuser’s power and control loop. As a victim’s self-esteem deteriorates as a result of prolonged abuse, he or she will blame themselves for the violence and be unable to see a way out of the situation. Neglect is described as any deliberate or unintentional lack of concern for someone’s well-being, such as failing to meet a dependent’s basic needs. Child abuse, child neglect, dependent adult abuse, dependent adult neglect, and domestic violence are all examples of abuse and neglect.

If a family member shows apparent signs of bruising, malnutrition, depression, extreme fear, extortion, or other similar factors, a mandatory leader can suspect violence or neglect. However, this list is little and not an exhaustive, and other elements which exist. There is no one-size-fits-all solution, but mandatory reporters are expected to search for trends of concern and various indicators of problems; they are expected to ask questions if required and to report anything they believe, even if they are not 100 percent certain.

A instructor, for example, can suspect child abuse if a student is chronically underweight and seems desperate to eat all they can while at school. If a woman arrives at the emergency room with severe bruises and physical injuries that do not seem to match her reasons for the medical problems, a nurse may suspect domestic abuse. A mental health professional may suspect elder abuse if a senior citizen pays large sums of money to a single person or if a family member micromanages their finances.

A required reporter must be aware of the appropriate authority to which the alleged violence and neglect should be reported. In the case of child violence, each state has a department of child services (also known as social services) that should be contacted through the appropriate channels, such as hot lines. Domestic abuse should be reported to local law enforcement. Adult services agencies in each state deal with elder abuse and other forms of maltreatment of dependent adult.

  2. Which theory or theories are being used by Jessica, Marco, Maria, and Dr. Wilson to determine the moral status of the fetus? What from the case study specifically leads you to believe that they hold the theory you selected?
  3. How does the theory determine or influence each of their recommendations for action?
  4. What theory do you agree with? Why? How would that theory determine or influence the recommendation for action?

Remember to support your responses with the topic study materials.

Explain the role of the community health nurse in partnership with community stakeholders for population health promotion.

1 DQ 1

Population health promotion involves the improvement of the quality of life of the community through the provision of primary, secondary and tertiary healthcare services. The community health nurse should, therefore, play a supervisory role of the community member to control and regulate their health behavior. The primary function of the nurse in the partnership with the community stakeholders is to guide and advise them on the healthy practice that can promote a healthy living of the community (Eldredge et al., 2015).

PLACE YOUR ORDER NOW 

For instance, the community health nurse can decide to encourage the community stakeholders to champion the construction of toilets by each household in the community. That way, the nurse will be providing primary care through the community stakeholders who can prevent the development of disease in the community. The nurse can also take advantage of the community stakeholders to organize a community meeting whereby the nurse can advise and educate the community on health-seeking behavior and health promotion activities.

Appraising community resources like religious and nonprofit making organizations in the community is vital in enhancing community participation in health promotion. For instance, religious institutions are against some social acts that can encourage the spread of diseases like premarital sex. Appraising such values in such institutions helps to improve the community’s understanding and participation in disease prevention and health promotion.

Using 200-300 words APA format with references in support of the discussion

Explain the role of the community health nurse in partnership with community stakeholders for population health promotion. Explain why it is important to appraise community resources (nonprofit, spiritual/religious, etc.) as part of a community assessment and why these resources are important in population health promotion.

explain what obligations the U.S. government has towards its citizens and how can these obligations impact individual and group rights? Provide real-world examples to support your explanation.

Our political system is characterized by certain fundamental features to include a system of laws, rights, and liberties. The laws, created and supported by the Constitutional framework, are designed to protect and secure the rights and liberties of individuals and groups throughout the U.S. However, the government also has an obligation to provide for the security of its citizens from serious internal and external threats that could cause grave or severe damage to our country. Think about how the need for homeland and national security can create a dilemma where conflicts emerge between these security needs and the demands for civil rights and liberties.

POL201 FINAL PAPER (TOPIC IS Controlled Substance Act (1970)

Final Paper Assignment

The primary goal of your final assignment is to critically analyze  the specific topic you have chosen regarding American national  government.

You have been preparing for this final assignment each week by  constructing an Annotated Bibliography (Week 2) and a detailed outline  of the Final Paper’s main points (Week 3) in which you focused on the  following:

  • Historical and constitutional basis for the American Government’s structure
  • The system of checks and balances
  • The various roles (e., public opinion, media, special interest groups, etc.) concerning public policy and elections
  • The voting system and election process.

In addition, you have read the course text and course readings,  reviewed videos, and researched additional material for each week’s  assignments and this paper. This week, you will put all of those  outlines, readings, reviews, and research together to evaluate  policymaking and government program administration into one Final Paper.

PLACE YOUR ORDER NOW 

As we wrap up our course, reflect on what you have learned about the  key structures, systems, roles, and processes that embody our national  government. Think about the strengths and weaknesses, advantages and  disadvantages, and positive and negative impacts of these aspects of our  democracy. Use what you have learned so far to evaluate a specific  policy of our national government and recommend ways to enhance what  works and repair what is not working well. It is important that your  Final Paper utilizes your previous research and assignments, including  the feedback that you received from the Ashford Writing Center in Week  4. The assignment should also showcase what you have learned in the  course. While your previous assignments will serve as a strong base for  this assignment, it is very important that you implement feedback from  your instructor and the Ashford Writing Center, as well as further  expand on the material. Appropriate transitions and headings are needed  to ensure a cohesive Final Paper.

Consider the discussion in “Texas’s Shift from Blue to Red Informs 2014 Races.” The “red-blue” debate in Texas is essentially an issue of party realignment. The transformation of Texas from a one-party Democratic state to that of essentially a one-party Republican state occurred over several years in which there was a convergence of many different factors, including economics,demographics, trends in national politics, and the role of key political actors. For those predicting the possibility of Texas becoming a “blue” state with the resurgence of the Democratic Party, what lessons might be drawn from the Republican realignment that produced the party’s current domination of the state government and many local governments throughout Texas?

    1. Debate
      This debate excerpt is from the 2008 presidential campaign:

      • MCCAIN: Somehow in Washington today–and I’m afraid on Wall Street–greed is rewarded, excess is rewarded, and corruption–or certainly failure to carry out our responsibility is rewarded. As president of the United States, people are going to be held accountable in my administration. And I promise you that that will happen.
      • LEHRER: Do you have something directly to say, Senator Obama, to Senator McCain about what he just said?
      • OBAMA: Well, I think Senator McCain’s absolutely right that we need more responsibility, but we need it not just when there’s a crisis. I mean, we’ve had years in which the reigning economic ideology has been what’s good for Wall Street, but not what’s good for Main Street.

        (later)

      • MCCAIN: You’ve got to look at our record. You’ve got to look at our records. That’s the important thing. Who’s the person who has believed that the best thing for America is to have a tax system that is fundamentally fair? And I’ve fought to simplify it, and I have proposals to simplify it. Let Americans choose whether they want the existing tax code or they want a new tax code. Again, look at the record, particularly the energy bill. But, again, Senator Obama has shifted on a number of occasions. He has voted in the United States Senate to increase taxes on people who make as low as $42,000 a year.
      • OBAMA: That’s not true, John. That’s not true.
      • MCCAIN: And that’s just a fact. Again, you can look it up.
      • OBAMA: Look, it’s just not true. And if we want to talk about oil company profits, under your tax plan, John—this is undeniable—oil companies would get an additional $4 billion in tax breaks. Now, look, we all would love to lower taxes on everybody. But here’s the problem: If we are giving them to oil companies, then that means that there are those who are not going to be getting them.
    2. Inaugural Address
      This excerpt is from the opening of President George W. Bush’s Second Inaugural Address:

      “On this day, prescribed by law and marked by ceremony, we celebrate the durable wisdom of our Constitution, and recall the deep commitments that unite our country. I am grateful for the honor of this hour, mindful of the consequential times in which we live, and determined to fulfill the oath that I have sworn and you have witnessed.

      At this second gathering, our duties are defined not by the words I use, but by the history we have seen together. For a half century, America defended our own freedom by standing watch on distant borders. After the shipwreck of communism came years of relative quiet, years of repose, years of sabbatical—and then there came a day of fire.

      We have seen our vulnerability—and we have seen its deepest source. For as long as whole regions of the world simmer in resentment and tyranny—prone to ideologies that feed hatred and excuse murder—violence will gather, and multiply in destructive power, and cross the most defended borders, and raise a mortal threat. There is only one force of history that can break the reign of hatred and resentment, and expose the pretensions of tyrants, and reward the hopes of the decent and tolerant, and that is the force of human freedom.

      We are led, by events and common sense, to one conclusion: The survival of liberty in our land increasingly depends on the success of liberty in other lands. The best hope for peace in our world is the expansion of freedom in all the world.

      America’s vital interests and our deepest beliefs are now one. From the day of our Founding, we have proclaimed that every man and woman on this earth has rights, and dignity, and matchless value, because they bear the image of the Maker of Heaven and earth. Across the generations, we have proclaimed the imperative of self-government, because no one is fit to be a master, and no one deserves to be a slave. Advancing these ideals is the mission that created our Nation. It is the honorable achievement of our fathers. Now it is the urgent requirement of our nation’s security, and the calling of our time.

      So it is the policy of the United States to seek and support the growth of democratic movements and institutions in every nation and culture, with the ultimate goal of ending tyranny in our world.
