DSC Current Professional Health Care Organizations Issue Discussion

 

I’m trying to learn for my Nursing class and I’m stuck. Can you help?

The initial discussion posting should be concise, yet comprehensive, a minimum of 250 words and should evidence a thorough review of the literature by synthesizing information, but NOT describing each source in detail. In other words learn to read a journal article and paraphrase concisely what you have learned from that journal. The initial response should be based on peer reviewed scholarly journals and textbooks, not websites such as Wikipedia, Google, etc. The initial response should provide two (2) APA formatted scholarly journal references. The student is expected to perform a thorough search of the literature, the media, and discussions with stakeholders such as legislators, consumers, and other health care professionals about a current health legislative issue. Identify the current health care issue and answer the following questions:

  1. What is the current legislative or regulatory issue, and why is it being debated?
  2. Who is most affected by the legislation?
  3. What are the current socioeconomic, political, cultural, and ethical issues surrounding this topic?
  4. Who are the stakeholders?
  5. What are the positions of professional health care organizations (ANA, AHA, AMA), consumers, and the major political parties on the issue?
  6. What are the implications of the policy issue for nursing?
