Provision 4: “The nurse is responsible and accountable for individual nursing practice and determines the appropriate delegation of tasks consistent with the nurse’s obligation to provide optimum patient care.”

Imagine you are the head nurse in a senior living facility. You have 36 residents; normally there are two nurses with four nursing assistants. It is night shift, and the other nurse was in an accident on the way to work. Hence, it is you, 36 residents, and four CNAs. One of the CNAs is due to graduate from nursing school in one month. 30 of the 36 patients have 9 PM medicine due.

1. To get medicine to the patients on time, would you allow the CNA who is close to finishing school to help administer the medicine? Would this be an appropriate delegation of tasks, considering that an RN must complete medication administration? Which is more important: delegation of tasks or timely medication administration for patients?

Determine what side affects you will be mindful of

Discuss other ways to reduce both of these with non-pharmacologic interventions

1. You are involved in a study of the relationship between smoking and serum cholesterol concentrations of high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C), the following data were collected from samples of adult males who were nonsmokers, light smokers, moderate smokers, and heavy smokers. You wish to know if these data provide sufficient evidence to indicate that the four populations differ with respect to mean serum concentration of HDL-C. Let the probability of committing a type I error be 0.05. If an overall significant difference is found, determine which pairs of individual sample means are significant different.

There are two benefits for why individual investors would choose mutual funds rather than individual stock purchases. The two benefits from the book are diversification and the expertise of mutual fund mangers. Look up Warren Buffet famous 10-year bet with a hedge fund manager in order to discuss how he would explain how we would choose mutual funds based on the benefits.
