Health Promotion In Minority Population

Select an ethnic minority group that is represented in the United   States (American Indian/Alaskan Native, Asian American, Black/African   American, Hispanic/Latino, Native Hawaiian, or Pacific Islander).   Using health information available from Healthy People, the CDC, and   other relevant government websites, analyze the health status for this group.

In a paper of 1,000-1,250 words, compare and contrast the health   status of your selected minority group to the national average.   Include the following:

  1. Describe the ethnic minority group selected. Describe the     current health status of this group. How do race and ethnicity     influence health for this group?
  2. What are the health     disparities that exist for this group? What are the nutritional     challenges for this group?
  3. Discuss the barriers to health     for this group resulting from culture, socioeconomics, education,     and sociopolitical factors.
  4. What health promotion     activities are often practiced by this group?
  5. Describe at least one approach using the three levels of health     promotion prevention (primary, secondary, and tertiary) that is     likely to be the most effective in a care plan given the unique     needs of the minority group you have selected. Provide an     explanation of why it might be the most effective choice.
  6. What cultural beliefs or practices must be considered when     creating a care plan? What cultural theory or model would be best to     support culturally competent health promotion for this population?   Why?

Extremely Low Birth Weight Infant

Socioeconomic-The more premature an infant is at birth, the greater the cost to care for the infant both on the family and on the healthcare system, as these infants require longer hospital stays and more extensive testing, medications and procedures. (Bowers, 2013, p. 29) Quite often the parents or other caregivers are forced to resort to becoming full-time caregivers and leave gainful employment. This places additional stress and financial burden on the families of these ELBW babies. Maternal stress is likely to increase as the mother may feel a sense of failure having given birth to an ELBW infant, leading to higher risk of postpartum depression and additional stress on the whole family.

Ongoing care– Need for ongoing early intervention services throughout childhood also contributes to the cost of raising a child born ELBW. Prematurity and low birth weight also increases the risk of readmission early in life, raising the overall cost to the family and increasing risks of hospital-acquired infections. Payment for routine and specialized care may be a challenge if the parent who carries insurance coverage for the child is unable to work and therefore loses employer-based health coverage.

Comorbidities-ELBW babies are at increased risk of fetal and neonatal death as well as long-term complications in adulthood like obesity, hypertension, diabetes and impaired fertility. (Bowers, 2013, p. 30) Short -term risks in ELBW infants include difficulties regulating temperature and blood sugar, risk for infection, renal failure and bleeding disorders. Many infants later demonstrate delays in motor development, speech delays and hearing impairment.

Ethnic and cultural disparities related to low birth weight babies- According to Bowers (2013), Non-Hispanic Black women are more likely to have a premature/LBW baby than a Non-Hispanic White woman, and while risk factors may include social stress, ethnicity alone, infection, inflammation, and genetic factors, the one factor most indicative of preterm delivery of a LBW infant is a previous preterm delivery.

One segment of our text pointed out that some cultures or ethnicities have varying views on infant death or death at any age, so the approach to care may differ greatly in those cultures and not have a direct association with the economic status of the family or culture or resources available to care for the ELBW infant. (Bowers, 2013, p. 29)

Support service from my community & Link and its effectiveness-

“WIC promotes the birth of healthy infants by preventing low birth weight, the leading cause of infant death and disability. The program provides prescribed supplemental foods, nutrition education and counseling, and referral to health care and other needed services for persons at nutritional risk. Eligibility includes: pregnant and nursing women and infants and children up to age 5.” (“Maternal and child health services | Schenectady County,” 2019)

https://www.fns.usda.gov/wic

Effectiveness– I chose to highlight the WIC program because it aims at prevention. A big part of addressing ELBW means looking at prenatal factors that may contribute to the risk of a low birth weight infant. Pregnant women are provided with appropriate nutrition through payment vouchers, while meeting with peer counselors and staff to learn about proper nutrition, prenatal care, breastfeeding preparation and many other services. Once a mother delivers her baby, the support continues through supplemental nutrition for the mother and child, help purchasing formula or breastfeeding support including breast pumps and peer counseling. The WIC program may be effective at reducing the risk of ELBW babies if the cause of low birth weight was related to the availability of proper nutrition for the mother while pregnant, or due to the lack of proper regular prenatal care. Once an ELBW infant is born, WIC may be effective at assisting the family already facing financial challenges with obtaining proper nutrition for the infant (then child up to age 5) as needed to ensure adequate growth and development.

SECOND COMMENT

It is very unfortunate that low birth babies affect the family and community. Personally, as a nurse, infants, and babies are my weakness, not my focus of study, and something I do not enjoy. Not to sound harsh, but we all have our preferences as individuals. There are many short and long term impacts, socioeconomic implications, and of course the need for ongoing care. The more premature an infant is at birth will determine the costliness to care for them. Medications, special treatments, and the amount of time spent in the hospital alone can deter the entire family’s road to recovery and the happiness which should be shared when having a newborn. These infants need ongoing care and many times family members end up being their caretakers full time and not working anymore and money can become sparse and the child can then be looked at as a burden. Several comorbidities include hypertension, diabetes mellitus, and increased risk of obesity. (Bowers, 2013) The at-risk group includes black women due to lifestyle and economic factors. The ethnic group opposite of that are Hispanic women. These 2 groups I am very familiar with, however, when it comes to children, I am uneducated. Hopefully, this course will make me more aware.

I am using FAN as my community resource. FAN is committed to providing free (which is of utmost importance) high-quality resources for supporting parents and the family. There is actually a woman who is part of the Family Advisory Staff who give here email. ErikaGoyer@gmail.com This website is so important and easy for all to access, get educated, donate, sponsor, and be a part of this wonderful organization.

(nationalperinatal.org)

Effectiveness is very well received. You can become a member of this group, make donations for families in need, and there are many more ways to simply get involved. You can actually become a sponsor to help other families see and feel what you went through and help all along the way.

Organizational Policies And Practices To Support Healthcare Issues

Quite often, nurse leaders are faced with ethical dilemmas, such as those associated with choices between competing needs and limited resources. Resources are finite, and competition for those resources occurs daily in all organizations.

For example, the use of 12-hour shifts has been a strategy to retain nurses. However, evidence suggests that as nurses work more hours in a shift, they commit more errors. How do effective leaders find a balance between the needs of the organization and the needs of ensuring quality, effective, and safe patient care?

In this Discussion, you will reflect on a national healthcare issue and examine how competing needs may impact the development of polices to address that issue.

To Prepare:

  • Review the Resources and think about the national healthcare issue/stressor you previously selected for study in Module 1.
  • Reflect on the competing needs in healthcare delivery as they pertain to the national healthcare issue/stressor you previously examined.

Post an explanation of how competing needs, such as the needs of the workforce, resources, and patients, may impact the development of policy. Then, describe any specific competing needs that may impact the national healthcare issue/stressor you selected. What are the impacts, and how might policy address these competing needs? Be specific and provide examples.

EMERGING TECHNOLOGIES IN HEALTH CARE

Running head: EMERGING TECHNOLOGIES IN HEALTH CARE

1

EMERGING TECHNOLOGIES IN HEALTHCARE

Emerging Technologies and Impact on Nursing Practice

Healthcare has evolved in terms of technology and health information technology, facilitates storage, and information sharing (Altotaibi & Federico, 2017). Health Information Technology (HIT) was invented to improve medical outcomes, enhance patient safety, advance patient records and help in achieving a new standard for care (Kruse & Beane, 2018). In the U.S., the adaption of new technologies has resulted and improved patient outcomes and reduced medical errors. The Electronic Health Record is the most integrated technology that has changes how care is given. It has led to benefits like medication administration efficiency and effectiveness, improved outcomes, and cost-effectiveness (citation). The future of nursing calls for the understanding of the “technological tools and information systems while collaborating and coordinating care across teams of health professionals,” (Huston, 2013, Pg#). The purpose of this paper is to identify how new technologies change nursing practice, examine the benefits and challenges, and assess patient safety and quality

Nursing Technologies, Innovation, and Implementation

Nurses are facing a period of transition and must adjust quickly to new technologies and practices. The adjustment may mean new skill sets and continuing education (citation). To ensure the appropriate delivery of patient care, nurses must oversee care given to patients and coordinate care with other healthcare workers (Pepito, & Locsin, 2019). Huston (2013) discussed many emerging technologies that will change the practice of nursing, including (a) electronic health records, (b) less invasive and more accurate tools for diagnostics and treatment, and (c) genetics and genomics. Dewsbury and Ballard (2014) also discussed nurse call systems.

Evidence-based practice and reduced medical errors have been promoted by the use of Computerized physician order entry (CPOE) and Clinical Decision Support Systems (Khanna, & Yen, 2014). In the past, patient health records were in paper format. Hospitals and clinics would have only one folder for each patient containing all their medical records (Evans, 2016). Traditional paper health records were also very long and hard to read. Locating the patient history was a challenge for physicians and nurses. The electronic health record is the most integrated technology that has changed how care is given and making a huge impact on nursing (Huston, 2013). The quality of care provided by nurses’ results from the adoption of new technologies (Huston, 2013). Healthcare providers have access to critical patient information from multiple providers, 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, allowing for better coordinated care (Huston, 2013).

Nurse call systems are essential and have impacted patient safety (Dewsbury, & Ballard, 2014). Call systems can help to improve patient safety, communication, and overall quality of care. Nurse call systems have improved wireless communication between the nurses and the residents/patients. Better patient care has resulted due to the ability to prioritize using a call system (Dewsbury, & Ballard, 2014). Additionally, call systems are able to provide telehealth services by which patients can be monitored remotely (Dewsbury, & Ballard, 2014). The system allows for the sharing of information, promotes good nursing practice, the workload is managed hence mitigating risks and management of records. And monitoring the health conditions of a patient (Dewsbury, & Ballard, 2014).

Due to workforce shortage and a growing elder population, new technologies like robotics have a huge impact on healthcare and the future of nursing practice (Huston, 2013). Robotics are used in many areas include nanomedicine, biomechatronic, and as direct care providers (Huston, 2013). Japan is one of the first to use robots widely to care for the elderly in a nursing home (citation). Robotics not only help patients but also reduce physical work strain of nurses (citation). Nurses often suffer from back injuries (citation). Robotic assistance may be useful in preventing nursing injuries (citation). Robots can also communicate and lead patients through a variety of recreational activities, which may be beneficial to patients with dementia (citation). Nurses who initiate innovation and embrace technology contribute to improved health outcomes (citation).

Less invasive and more accurate tools for diagnostics and treatment will also change nursing practice in the future”. For example, heart disease is likely to be diagnosed by a new blood test that eliminates the need for risky diagnostic angiograms,” (Huston, 2013, Pg. #). Minimally invasive surgery results in less operative trauma for the patient compared to open invasive procesures (Kuma, Yadav, Singh, Chauhan, & Neha, 2016). Less pain and hospitalization time. It will also help speed up the rehabilitation and decreases the rate of postsurgical complications (Kumar, et al, 2016). In addition, magnets are increasingly used as a treatment for major depression (Huston, 2013). As a therapeutic intervention for depression, a small electromagnet is placed on the scalp behind the left forehead (Huston, 2013).

metaparadigms of nursing

Please reply with one reference to the following post:

Week 1 Discussion

Nursing revolves around the patient, the nurse, the patient’s health, and the environment. Therefore, these four concepts are known as the metaparadigms of nursing. There are many additional concepts that come to mind when I think of nursing. As a registered nurse, I feel as if collaboration and advocacy are two additional concepts that are relevant to my personal practice.

Collaboration is defined as “working with others in a way that promotes/encourages each person’s contributions toward achieving optimal/realistic patient/family goals” (Butts & Rich, 2018). In my opinion, working in the healthcare field truly requires amazing teamwork. A patient cannot heal purely by the medications the nurse gives them every morning. They must walk with physical therapy to get stronger, they must get their breathing treatments from the respiratory therapist, their labs have to be drawn by the phlebotomist, the radiologists must read their x-rays, and the physician must speak to/evaluate the patient each day to ensure that his/her goals are being met. Thankfully, I work in an environment where collaboration is welcomed. As the nurse, physicians often ask my opinion, as I have a closer relationship to the patient. Collaboration is most successful when there is active communication regarding patient care, and the correct resources are used to optimize patient outcomes (Butts & Rich, 2018).

Advocacy is the second concept that I feel is relevant to my personal practice. According to Butts and Rich (2018), advocacy is defined as “working on another’s behalf and representing the concerns of the patient/family and nursing staff.” On a daily basis, I find myself advocating for my patients. I do this by keeping the entire healthcare team informed, providing assistance or getting them in touch with the correct people to get them assistance, and providing professional nursing care. Working on an orthopedic unit, I most often find myself advocating for my patient regarding their pain. As nurses, we are taught that “pain is what the patient says it is.” If I feel as if my patient does not have adequate pain control, I am quick to call the physician. By advocating for my patients, I want to ensure that they get the proper care to optimize their health and outcomes.
