 The Evolving Healthcare Technology Environment

The focus of this week’s discussion is health technology. It offers the opportunity to share your thinking about three questions:

Start with an operational definition of “healthcare technology” to offer the reader context for your post. It may not mean the same thing to all.

1. What are the most important trends in health care technology?

2. What factors are driving and/or limiting the further growth of health care technologies?

3. Based on the above trends and factors, identify five (5) ways health technology will likely change the role of health care managers by 2030

Deontology Paper

  

I need a Turnitin Report

SELECT ONLY ONE FILM

Read chapter 3, and watch the films “Gone Baby Gone” and “Sleepers”. Pick one movie and apply Kant’s moral philosophy to judge the MAIN FINAL action.

** For “Gone Baby Gone” judge Patrick’s final decision 

 ** For “Sleepers” judge the priest’s final decision. 

Judging any other action in the movie is an automatic zero.

500 words minimum in MLA format. 

*You must apply Kant’s 3 premises and Michael Sandel’s 3 contrasts 

  

Kant’s Three Premises

Kant’s Categorical Imperative

Nature of the concept

The concept of the categorical imperative is a syllogism

1.The first premise is that a person acts morally if his or her conduct would, without condition, be the “right” conduct for any person in similar circumstances (the “First Maxim”).

2.The second premise is that conduct is “right” if it treats others as ends in themselves and not as means to an end (the “Second Maxim”).

3.The conclusion is that a person acts morally when he or she acts as if his or her conduct was establishing a universal law governing others in similar circumstances (the “Third Maxim”).

Kant’s Three Premises Explained

In the case of ” Gone Baby Gone” the philosophical process you will follow in this paper should sound as something like this:

According to Kant’s first premise Patrick behaved moral because he returned the victim he was hired to find and without condition this is the “right” conduct for any detective in cases of kidnapping (the “First Maxim”). Here Kant speaks of doing the right prior to good.

2. On Kant’s second premise Patrick acted moral because he respected the dignity of Amanda and he treated her as an end in herself and not as means to an end like everyone else was doing in the film (the “Second Maxim”). Here Kant speaks of humans as special creatures and ends in themselves. Humans are ends, not means to an end. Los seres humanos son un fin, no un medio para un fin.

3. The conclusion is that a detective act morally when he reports a kidnapping to the police and this behavior should establish a universal law governing all detectives in cases of kidnapping (the “Third Maxim”). Here Kant asks us to test the universality of our action. Will it be OK if everyone does what I am about to do?

  VIDEO Michael Sandel’s 3 contrasts

Three contrasts:

** Morality { the motive of duty}

**Freedom {Determination of will}

** Reason {imperatives}

Vital Signs

  

1. You are a nurse caring for a 58-year-old ironworker who has been admitted to your unit with acute hypertension. He became extremely symptomatic at work and was brought to your emergency department (ED) via ambulance. After receiving a report from the ED nurse, he is brought to your unit asymptomatic (other than his BP of 178/106) and seems in good spirits. After completing his admission paperwork, he settles in and awaits his health care provider. Four hours later, you answer his call light and he reports headache (rated 6 on a 0-to-10 scale) and dizziness. 

a. Outline the pertinent information within this case study.

b. How often would you expect to measure the patient’s vital signs based on his history?

c. What would be your first intervention upon his reporting increased symptoms? Include rationale.

d. What is the patient’s pulse pressure?

e. Describe risk factors that could be contributing to your patient’s hypertension.

2. As a nurse in a critical care unit, your newest admission is a 24-year-old victim of a motor vehicle accident (MVA). Report from the OR nurse indicates that the patient has several surgically repaired fractures, a closed head injury, and elevated temperature. Additionally, he has IV fluid running postoperatively and dressing changes scheduled every shift. The patient is intermittently alert and disoriented, with his pain adequately controlled by IV analgesics. 

a. Outline the pertinent information within this case study.

b. What factors could be causing the patient’s elevated body temperature?

c. Why is determining the fever’s cause important?

Infographic about Various Agencies on Policy Formation

You are the risk manager for a local community hospital. You have just attended a Joint Commission Resources conference. Part of your role is to educate employees of the organization on practical solutions and implementation tips to maintain accreditation.

The Joint Commission requires that organizations seeking accreditation provide education and training to staff on areas such as populations served, team communications, coordination of care, reporting unanticipated adverse events, fall reduction programs, and early warning signs of change in patients’ conditions.

As an independent, not-for-profit organization, the Joint Commission accredits and certifies nearly 21,000 health care organizations and programs in the United States. Joint Commission accreditation and certification is recognized nationwide as a symbol of quality that reflects an organization’s commitment to meeting certain performance standards.
