What matters at the end of life and Palliative care, a  different voice in healthcare. There are two Utube videos above and you  need to pick only one and tell about it. Here is what you can report on:

a) What is the subject that the speaker is covering?

b) Does it effect the ideas that you have already about palliative care?

c) It is very important for someone to think about and be able to  converse about the subject of death and dying if they are considering  working as a nurse in this area. Why would that be?

Read the required articles on health care workers’ legal liability for medical mistakes: https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S2155825615303653;

AND,

the IOM report “To Err is Human” chapter 8 on recommendations to reduce medical errors.

Analyze current events in legal liability for medical mistakes, either in nursing or another healthcare profession, and compare an example of legal liability with the IOM recommendations.

Purpose

The purpose of this assignment is to identify the scope of practice in one’s state, including level of independence of practice, prescribing authority, any limitations of practice, process for obtaining licensure in your state, certification, and education requirements for licensure.  Next, students will discuss how the level of independence of practice in their state, i.e., reduced, restricted or full practice, affects patients’ access to care in their local community.

Activity Learning Outcomes

Through this discussion, the student will demonstrate the ability to: 

· Understand NP practice as defined by law (CO2) 

· Determine legislation as defined by legislation, statutes and regulations (CO2) 

· Identify barriers to ensuring patient’s rights (CO3) 

Due Date: Wednesday by 11:59 pm MST of Week 6

Initial responses to the discussion topic must be posted by Wednesday 11:59 pm MT. Two additional posts to peers and/or faculty are due by Sunday at 11:59 pm MT.  Students are expected to submit assignments by the time they are due.

 A 10% late penalty will be imposed for discussions posted after the deadline on Wednesday of week 6, regardless of the number of days late. NOTHING will be accepted after 11:59 pm MT on Sunday (i.e. student will receive an automatic 0). 

Total Points Possible: 100

Preparing the Discussion

Discuss your state NP community in terms of scope of practice. Include your state’s scope of practice for NPs, including: 
Florida

1.

· Level of independence of practice 
**In California, NPs are required to practice under Standardized Procedure Guidelines. If CA is your intended practice state, please provide details on how Standardized Procedures Guidelines are developed in California and an example of a California SPG.

· Prescribing authority 

· Any limitations of practice 

· Process for obtaining licensure in your state 

· Certification and education requirements for licensure. 

2. If you live in a restricted or reduced practice state, how has patient care been impacted in your local community by these barriers? For instance, is the ED used for primary care?  Are the EDs overcrowded with long wait times?  Are there urgent care clinics readily available? Is there adequate access to primary care?  If you live in a full practice, how has an independent practice of the APN resulted in improved patient access to healthcare?   

3. How does access to NPs impact any healthcare disparities?  

4. A scholarly resource must be used for EACH discussion question each week.
