1/ You are working in Urgent Care; one of your patients, Mr. R. ha an advance directive and a do not resuscitate (DNR) order on his chart. Suddenly his wife rushes out of the room saying, “My husband has stopped breathing”. You automatically reach for the phone to call a Code. Then you remember the DNR; should you make the Code call? Explain.

2/ It has been said that health care providers do not make “cooperative” patients. Why?

3/ A member of your family has a disorder that can only be treated with extensive lifestyle changes. List specific suggestions for helping this relative make the necessary changes.

Write a paper (1,000-1,250 words) that addresses the impact diversity has on health care, and the changes that occur to support diverse populations. Include the following: Define diversity. Explain how diverse demographics influence the health care industry. Consider culture, gender, religion and spirituality, and social and economic status. Define the meaning of cultural competence and the role it plays in organizational behavior. What is meant by the term "diversity management"? How have changes in U.S. demographics impacted the health care industry, diversity of customers, and diversity within the organization itself? How does understanding diversity support awareness, empathy, and understanding with a community? How does it support a national and global community?

1. A flask holds 3.4 kg of a monatomic ideal gas (mass number 799). If the gas changes temperature isobarically (constant pressure) from 639o C to 740o C, find the total heat added to the gas, in kJ. A positive answer means heat is added; a negative answer means heat was removed.  

2.A flask holds 5.78 kg of a diatomic ideal gas (mass number of the gas 277). If the gas changes temperature isobarically (at constant pressure) from 991o C to 462o C, find the total work done by the gas, in kJ. A positive answer means work is done by the gas, a negative answer means work is done on the gas.

Assignment # 4 – Maternal Adaptation

  1. Develop a nursing care planusing the patient scenario below (Nursing care plan template located in assignments).

Alli is pregnant and at 37 weeks’ gestation. She has come to the office for her routine prenatal visit and is discussing issues of concern with the nurse. Alli states she is having a difficult time sleeping because she is always getting up to use the restroom. If she is not using the restroom, she has problems with heartburn.

Include in the teaching plan The changes which occur during pregnancy related to urinary frequency.

The changes which occur during pregnancy related to heartburn and how to manage this problem.

Which of the following correctly depicts the mechanism of the Na+/glucose co-transporter discussed in class?

Select one:

a)Both the Na and the glucose must bind which allows Na to move against its gradient because glucose is moving down its gradient.

b)Glucose is pushed against its gradient because Na will be moving with its electrochemical gradient.

c)This transporter binds Na on the outside of the cell, then ATP adds on a Phosphate, which changes the confirmation and open to cells interior where glucose binds. The removal of the Phosphate changes the transporter shape and releases glucose.

d)Both Na and Glucose move with their individual electrochemical gradients when the transporter is open.

Question 1. Suppose you are working as a consultant for a firm that is a monopoly and is worried about its policies in the short run. What would you recommend in terms of quantity changes (raise, cut, shut down or stay put) and price changes (raise, cut, stay put) in each of the following situations a through c:

a. [5 points] P = $299 MC = $349 AVC = $249

b. [5 points] MR = $150 MC = $100 AVC = $140

c. [5 points] P = $288 MC = $288 AVC = $287

[Note: P = price; MR = marginal revenue; AVC = average variable cost; MC = marginal cost]

A flask holds 2.68 kg of a monatomic ideal gas (mass number 625). If the gas changes temperature isobarically (constant pressure) from 800o C to 410o C, find the total heat added to the gas, in kJ. A positive answer means heat is added; a negative answer means heat was removed.

A flask holds 7.46 kg of a diatomic ideal gas (mass number of the gas 937). If the gas changes temperature isobarically (at constant pressure) from 319o C to 996o C, find the total work done by the gas, in kJ. A positive answer means work is done by the gas, a negative answer means work is done on the gas.

You’re a quality control engineer for Norman’s fourth largest cracker factory, and you plan to implement some process changes if you conclude that the mean weight of a 32 ounce box of saltine crackers is less than 32 ounces. Based on a sample of 15 boxes, you found an average and standard deviation of cracker box weight of 31.6 ounces and 1.2 ounces, respectively.

a. Draw conclusions with the critical value approach at 99% confidence.

b. What is the probability that you conclude that no process changes are needed when the actual mean box weight is 31.7 ounces? Use the table in the textbook.

c. Redo part b, but instead use Excel.

In today's federal government, there has been a lot of talk about changing the US Tax Code. Some changes have already been implements and we, as taxpayers, will see how these changes affect us come 2019, when we file our first tax returns under these new provisions. Regardless, there is still talk about wanting to repeal both the corporate and individual AMP provisions.
Find an article or a website that discusses why some policymakers wanted to repeal both the corporate and individual AMT provisions from the Internal Revenue Code. Discuss the justification for elimination as well as any concerns policymakers had about eliminating the AMT.

Fill in the Blanks:

a.) The shape of the price-yield relationship for standard coupon bonds is referred to as a _________ (concave/convex) relationship. This relationship is not _________ (linear/nonlinear).

b.) Although the prices of standard coupon bonds move in the _________ (same/opposite) direction from the change in yield, the percentage price change _________ (is/is not) the same for all bonds.

c.) For very _________ (small/large) changes in the yield, the percentage price change for a given bond is roughly the same, whether the yield increases or decreases. For _________ (small/large) changes in the yield, the percentage price change is not the same for an increase in the required yield as it is for a decrease in the yield. For a given large change in yields, the percentage price increase is _________ (smaller/greater) than the percentage price decrease.
