On Sunday at 1000hrs, you are assigned to admit a new client to your ward.

Fei Hong is a 70-year-old female who was admitted to your ward this morning following a fall at home. On admission, her daughter Yu Yan is in attendance. Fei Hong has sustained significant bruising and swelling to her right hip and shoulder with a large skin tear to her right forearm. She did not sustain any fractures. She is admitted for pain relief, dressings to her forearm and a physiotherapy review.

On assessment of Fei Hong, you note that she has bony prominences on her hips and pelvis, and is at risk of developing pressure areas.

Yu Yan has requested an interview with the doctor to determine if her mother needs any extra care at home, as Fei Hong is beginning to show signs of dementia according to her daughter. Fei Hong generally eats a small, but nutritious diet at home that includes all food groups, and is predominantly Asian cuisine.

Fei Hong has reported no urinary issues and takes Metamucil daily to prevent chronic constipation. She can shower and dress independently but requires supervision and prompting at times due to early signs of dementia. She had been mobilising independently prior to this fall.

She will need to be assessed by a physiotherapist for a walking aid. Medically, Fei Hong has some hearing and sight impairment, and wears glasses and bilateral hearing aids, but is on no regular medications.

Socially, she lives with her daughter Yu Yan, son-in-law George and their children – three-year old twins – and Yu Yan’s 17-year-old son Jason from a previous relationship.

Yu Yan cares for her mother and her three (3) children and has no community support for her mother. Fei Hong has no other extended family as she immigrated to Australia 16 years ago to help her daughter raise her son. She speaks little English and is Buddhist. She states that her strong faith and her daughter help her cope with her ageing process.

Fei Hong’s observations on admission are:

• Temp 36.1

• BP 105/68

• Respirations 18

• HR 64

• Height: 156cm

• Weight: 46kg.

• BMI of 19

Question1

Another nurse has drafted a plan of care for Fei Hong. Respond to the questions below based on your scope of practice as an enrolled nurse. Use 20 words for each to explain:

a) How you would confirm that this plan reflects the needs of Fei Hong and her family

b) If the care plan seems to conflict with the client’s needs and requirements, who you would speak with and how you would justify your assumption

c) If Fei Hong’s situation deteriorated after admission, who you would communicate this to, and when and how that should be done

Nursing diagnosis Planning (Nursing intervention) Expected Outcome

***JAVA PROGRAM

Write a method called shrink that accepts an array of integers (that the user inputs) as a parameter and returns a new array containing the result of replacing each pair of integers with the sum of that pair. For example, if an array called list stores the values {7, 2, 8, 9, 4, 15, 7, 1, 9, 10}, then the call of shrink(list) should return a new array containing {9, 17, 19, 8, 19}.

The first pair from the original list is shrunken into 9 (7 + 2),

the second pair is shrunken into 17 (8 + 9), and so on.

If the list stores an odd number of elements, the final element is not collapsed. For example, if the list had been {1, 2, 3, 4, 5}, then the call would return {3, 7, 5}. Your method should not change the array that is passed as a parameter.

Be sure to have a shrink() method

The A&M Hobby Shop carries a line of radio-controlled model racing cars. Demand for the cars is assumed to be constant at a rate of 40 cars per month. The cars cost $60 each, and ordering costs are approximately $15 per order, regardless of the order size. The annual holding cost rate is 20%.

1. Determine the economic order quantity and total annual cost under the assumption that no backorders are permitted. If required, round your answers to two decimal places.
   
   Q^* =
   
   Total Cost = $  
   
2. Using a $45 per-unit per-year backorder cost, determine the minimum cost inventory policy and total annual cost for the model racing cars. If required, round your answers to two decimal places.
   
   S^* =
   
   Total Cost = $  
   
3. What is the maximum number of days a customer would have to wait for a backorder under the policy in part (b)? Assume that the Hobby Shop is open for business 300 days per year. If required, round your answer to two decimal places.
   
   Length of backorder period =  days
   
4. Would you recommend a no-backorder or a backorder inventory policy for this product? Explain. If required, round your answers to two decimal places.
   
   Recommendation would be backorder  inventory policy, since the maximum wait is only  days and the cost savings is $  .
   
5. If the lead time is six days, what is the reorder point for both the no-backorder and backorder inventory policies? If required, round your answers to two decimal places.
   
   Reorder point for no-backorder inventory policy is .

GENERAL BUSINESS COURSE QUESTION:

Joe and Jill were talking about the role played by the Federal Reserve System in the United States. Joe seemed to be quite well informed about the functions and activities of our central bank. "You see, Jill, the Fed is the main guardian of our nation's economic stability," Joe declared. "In America, we don't want inflation and we don't want recession. To stretch the situation just a bit, we are frightened, absolutely terrified, by thoughts of hyperinflation and depression. So, the Fed maintains the right to alter the situation and protect us from these two monsters. And you ask, how they do that? The answer is the discount rate. That is the device that the Federal Reserve System uses to keep us safe."

Jill was enjoying listening to her friend explain it all. Joe continued, "Now the discount rate is the interest rate that the twelve Federal Reserve Banks around the country charge their member banks on a loan. So, when the discount rate goes up, all interest rates tend to go up. And, happy to say, when interest rates go up all over America, this tends to slow down any inflationary tendencies." Jill asked, "Does the Fed have other tools for stopping inflation?" "No," said Joe.

7) Has the economy recovered from the last recession? What factors led you to your answer? You should be able to back up your opinion. Don't use blog opinions. Make sure your source(s) is/are based upon facts.
