Health promotion and illness prevention is a holistic role for nurses. Typically community or public health nurses assume these roles; however, these roles are also important for nurses in acute care settings and are achieved through the promotion of health or management of illness by providing client education, often during a client's stay and at discharge.

Read the following two articles to understand the roles of both acute care and community nurses.

Original Research: Implementation of an Early Mobility Program in an ICU. http://ezproxy.rasmussen.edu/login?url=http://search.ebscohost.com/login.aspx?direct=true&db=rzh&AN=111298980&site=eds-live

Kulbok, P.A. Esther Thatcher, E. Eunhee Park, E., & Meszaros, P.S (2012). Evolving public health nursing roles: Focus on community participatory health promotion and prevention. http://ezproxy.rasmussen.edu/login?url=http://search.ebscohost.com/login.aspx?direct=true&db=a9h&AN=76615164&site=eds-live

After reading the two articles, post the following:

What is the primary role and responsibilities of nurses in health promotion and illness prevention?

Are there any differences in the role and responsibilities if the nurse is working in
acute care or in the community?

Are there differences in process or outcomes for health promotion versus illness
prevention?

What do you think is needed for nurses to be successful, either with health promotion or illness prevention?

Fremont has struggled over recent years to keep downtown businesses thriving. Locals report that the inability to park anywhere other than at overpriced parking meters prevents them from shopping downtown. Last week, the city of Clarion reported that adding two new parking lots and decreasing the hourly parking rate in their downtown area increased the surrounding business revenue by 7% in the past year. Fremont and Clarion are similar in terms of population and sales tax rates. The Fremont city manager’s office is looking for ways to increase downtown revenue and asks the public for suggestions.

Q1) Which of the following is a likely suggestion the city manager’s office will receive from the public?

  1. Fremont should reorganize downtown traffic into one-way streets
  2. Fremont should increase available parking spaces downtown
  3. Fremont should give tax breaks to downtown business owners
  4. Fremont should add parking meters to increase revenue.

2) Which of the following is the purpose of editorial about downtown Fremont?

A.To encourance residents to shop in downtown Fremont

B.To engage residents in the discussion about increasing business revenue

C.To prevent residents from shopping in Clarion

D.To determine how residents feel about adding more parking downtown

The following is from an article in the “Overheard” section in the Wall Street Journal:

“Hi, I’m a Mac.”

“And I’m a PC.”

“I like to stay in those posh hotels with free coffee and 700-threadcount sheets.”

“I like to stay at Motel 6.”

That is the latest revelation about the great computing divide, courtesy of Orbitz Worldwide CEO Barney Harford. Touting his company’s ability to differentiate itself by slicing and dicing customer data; he let on that those booking hotel rooms using Apple computers pay on average $20 more a night. The explanation could be simple: Anyone who pays a 50% or so premium for a MAC has more money to begin with. Either that or they are the ideal consumer – the type who pays through the nose for a brand.

a.    All else equal, the data could suggest the demand for Mac computers has higher income elasticity than the demand for PCs.

b.    When the author writes MAC buyers will “pay through the nose for a brand”, he/she assumes the computers are close or perfect substitutes.

c.    If consumers will “pay through the nose for a brand”, the demand curve for branded products should be relatively inelastic compared to non-branded products.

d.    All of the above answers are correct.

e.    Only answers a. and b. are correct.

A publicly traded company operating over 800 restaurants nationally and in 15 foreign countries with 34,000 employees with a reported gross revenue of $1.25 billion dollars is the subject of this action. This chain restaurant posted an internal announcement for a temporary summer position in its Park City, Utah resort location for employees in a nine state region. The position included company-provided housing and greater earnings. However, the announcement stated that only female employees would be considered because of concerns about housing employees of both genders together. The restaurant selected only women for those summer jobs. Two male employees were turned down for the opportunity. Please answer the following questions.

1) What federal law will the two male employees rely on in this action?

2) Can the two male employees bring an action in federal court immediately? If not, with what federal agency must they file a complaint first?

3) What is the statute of limitation of limitations on the filing of the complaint?

4) What doctrine will the male employees most likely use to prove discrimination and how will they go about proving it? How might the employer respond to or refute the allegations of discrimination?

5) How do you think the Court should rule and what is the basis for that ruling?

  1. What is the lowest z-value for the lowest 5% of observations on the standard normal distribution?

  

  1. If we know that the length of time it takes a university student to find a parking space in the university car park follows a normal distribution with a mean of 3.5 minutes and a standard deviation of 1 minute, find the Interquartile Range (IQR) for a randomly selected university student finding a parking space.

  1. The daily sales of a retail store are normally distributed with a standard deviation of $500. If the probability that sales will be more than $10,000 in any one day is 60%, what are the mean daily sales?

  1. A drinks machine dispenses coffee into cups. A sign on the machine indicates that each cup contains 100ml of coffee. The machine actually dispenses a mean amount of 105ml per cup and 10% of the cups contain less than the amount stated on the sign. Assuming that the amount of coffee dispenses into each cup is normally distributed, find the standard deviation of the amount of coffee dispensed per cup in ml.

You are working for Colorado Green Builders, a company in Boulder, Colorado, specializing in sustainable building. You are part of a project team that is supervising the design and construction of a visitor’s center in the Rocky Mountain National Park. The goal is to build the visitor’s center so that it is self-sufficient. That means it should use no outside resources, if possible, including energy, water, and waste systems. Your manager, Amanda Karlson, suggests that you meet with your team to plan this project.
a.Brainstorm the general categories of resources you need to build the visitor’s center so that it is self-sufficient. Consider everything typically found in a public building.
b.Review the resource categories and create a master list.
c.For each category, brainstorm ways to provide the resource without depending on outside systems. For example, if you have a food category, you could create a garden and greenhouse to provide fruits and vegetables without depending on outside suppliers.
d.Review the ideas your team generated, and then use convergent thinking techniques to edit the list. Your goal is to identify all the resources a visitor’s center needs using systems that are fairly easy to set up and maintain and are not too expensive.
e.Submit the list to your instructor as requested.

PLEASE HELP ME WITH THIS. ANY IDEA WILL HELP, OR EVEN SHORT ANSWER. THANK YOU!
