Discussion 9.2: Big Data Security

Big Data raises many questions about security, ethical standards, and proper use of data in health information systems. Ensuring ethical standards means that rules have to be established, but also enforced.

Explain the types of activities you would implement in an organization you manage to ensure the proper use of data, particularly in light of the concerns  Big Data raises. What safeguards would you recommend for collecting and retrieving healthcare data?

My capstone project of preventing pressure injuries could be presented to the Critical Care Nursing journal. The Critical Care Nursing journal is mostly for critical care nurses or nurses that want to enter the field of critical care nursing. Since the capstone project for preventing pressure injuries is more focused on ICU patients, being presented to a journal that is for critical care nurses is appropriate. This would allow critical nurses to have education on a subject that effects many patients and can reach more nurses instead of just the nurses on my unit and in my hospital.

A nursing conference that I might prevent my project to is the American Association of Critical Care Nurses and (NTI) National Teaching Institute. Attendees to AACN NTI 2020 will have the opportunity to participate in nearly 300 different live sessions dedicated to cutting-edge topics in today’s high-acuity nursing environment. Courses are designed to give nurses practical knowledge to help them deliver more informed, effective care(“AACN NTI 2020,” 2020). This is the best option for me to get the knowledge to more nurses, so that the patients in the ICU can benefit from this knowledge. Nursing knowledge is what is acquired to protect our patients from medical harm. To share knowledge in a nursing journal and conference that is for critical care nurses will help to protect more patients. These nursing forums reach many nurses all around the country; those that read these journals and attend these conferences can share their knowledge with those nurses that are unable to.

 Nursing research is used to study a dilemma or a problem in nursing. Examine a problem you have seen in nursing. Provide an overview of the problem and discuss why the problem should be studied. Provide rational and support for your answer. 

A 38-year old female arrives at the infusion clinic that you are working at. She states that she has already had a double mastectomy and is not sure why the oncologist is ordering chemotherapy since she has already had her breast removed.

1. Why would an oncologist order chemotherapy in addition to surgery?
2. What are the benefits of using a combination of chemotherapy to treat cancer?
3. What are some of the topics you should discuss with a patient that is here for her first chemotherapy treatment?

Psychotherapeutic Approaches to Group Therapy for Addiction

When selecting a psychotherapeutic approach for a client, you must consider the unique needs and characteristics of that particular client. The same is true when selecting a psychotherapeutic approach for groups. Not every approach is appropriate for every group, and the group’s unique needs and characteristics must be considered. For this Assignment, you examine psychotherapeutic approaches to group therapy for addiction.

Learning Objectives

Students will:

• Evaluate psychotherapeutic approaches to group therapy for addiction

To prepare:

• Review this week’s Learning Resources and reflect on the insights they provide on group therapy for addiction.
• View the media, Levy Family: Sessions 1-7, and consider the psychotherapeutic approaches being used.

The Assignment

In a 2- to 3-page paper, address the following:

• Identify the psychotherapeutic approach that the group facilitator is using and explain why she might be using this approach.
• Determine whether or not you would use the same psychotherapeutic approach if you were the counselor facilitating this group and justify your decision.
• Identify an alternative approach to group therapy for addiction and explain why it is an appropriate option.
• Support your position with evidence-based literature.

Students are required to submit weekly reflective narratives throughout the course that will culminate in a final, course-long reflective journal due in Topic 10. The narratives help students integrate leadership and inquiry into current practice.

This reflection journal also allows students to outline what they have discovered about their professional practice, personal strengths and weaknesses, and additional resources that could be introduced in a given situation to influence optimal outcomes. Each week students should also explain how they met a course competency or course objective(s).

In each week’s entry, students should reflect on the personal knowledge and skills gained throughout the course. Journal entries should address one or more of the areas stated below.  In the Topic 10 graded submission, each of the areas below should be addressed as part of the summary submission.

1. Health care delivery and clinical systems (This topic for this week)
3. While APA style is not required for the body of this assignment, solid academic writing is expected, and in-text citations and references should be presented using APA documentation guidelines, which can be found in the APA Style Guide, located in the Student Success Center.

This assignment uses a rubric. Please review the rubric prior to beginning the assignment to become familiar with the expectations for successful completion.
