Paper details:

I have to write a lab report for my evpp 302 lab. I have already completed the methods section. I need the writing to match mine.

The lab report I will be posting already has a methods section and has notes on it to help with the intro, the hypothesis, the results, and the discussion. I will also be attaching photos of the streams we looked at. Along with that, I will be attaching my past assignments from this class so you, the writer, can match my writing style, that is the most important part of this. My professor has given me many writing assignments so she knows my writing style, please do your best to replicate my writing style.

The first 5 attachments were posted on my blackboard account by my professor to help with the lab report. You need to follow the “how to write a lab report” pptx and the “Formal Lab ReportGrading”, this one is the grading rubric. The writer needs to review, study, and follow all of the attachments. The writer also needs to look at all of the links and follow all of the instructions in the “LAB REPORT” doc.

The results are from the YSI are in attachment 7, the rest of the results are shown in attachment 8. pics of stream 1 are in attachments 9-15, pics of stream 2 are in attachments 17-22. Attachments 23-26 are my past assignments, I attached these so you (the writer) can understand my writing style.

The last attachment is an article that you need to use as one of your references. The purpose of this lab is to test the effects of urbanization on the watershed, using macroinvertebrates as indirect indicators of water quality.

When admitting a patient what are the basic procedures?
  • In Preparation. Prior to the day of your hospital procedure or admission, there are several processes that must be completed, including: …
  • Registration. …
  • Patient Advocate Consultation. …
  • Pre-Admission Testing. …
  • Anesthesia Evaluation/Questionnaire. …
  • The Day of Arrival. …
  • Billing and Payment. …
  • Phone Numbers.
What is the most common reason for hospital admission?
Highlights. Circulatory disorders (diseases of the heart and blood vessels) were the most frequent reason for admission to the hospital through the ED, accounting for 26.3 percent of all such admissions; injuries accounted for 11.4 percent.
Can you make a hospital admit you?
Decision to Admit to the Hospital. Generally, it is in your best interest to ask the emergency department doctor to contact your primary care physician, even if he or she does not admit patients to the hospital where were taken. … This “on call” physician can admit you to the hospital.

J.S. is a 54-year-old Hispanic woman who presents to her primary-care

Case Study:
J.S. is a 54-year-old Hispanic woman who presents to her primary-care clinician for follow-up regarding elevated blood pressure. She was last seen 2 weeks prior with a blood pressure of 162/94 mmHg. She has no significant medical history. Additionally, she is a 1 ppd tobacco user with a history of 25 pack-years, and she has a family history of premature cardiac death.

Evaluation:
Her vital signs are as follows: height, 5 ft. 4 in.; weight, 188 lb.; pulse, 84 beats/min; blood pressure, 168/98 mmHg; and body mass index, 32.3. As J.S. has been found to be hypertensive (>149/90) on two consecutive office visits, starting an antihypertensive medication is indicated.

Questions:
Firstly, What is your initial choice for an antihypertensive medication in this patient? (Further, support your treatment plan with a discussion of the evidence based guideline you utilized)

Secondly, Which therapeutic lifestyle change is a priority in helping J.S. achieve blood pressure control?

Thirdly, Which of the following diagnostic tests would you order for J.S. to establish a baseline before starting an anti-hypertensive?

More details;

There are many classes of antihypertensives, which lower blood pressure by different means. Among the most important and most widely used medications are thiazide diuretics, calcium channel blockers, ACE inhibitors, angiotensin II receptor antagonists (ARBs), and beta blockers.
Further, What is the best antihypertensive medication?
According to many studies, thiazide diuretics (hydrochlorothiazide, chlorthalidone) and calcium channel blockers (amlodipine) are the place to start. Another option. ACE inhibitors (lisinopril, benazepril, etc) or ARBs (valsartan, irbesartan, losartan) are also recommend ed as a good place to start.
Lastly, What are the new antihypertensive drugs?
We review three new classes of antihypertensive drugs: imidazolines, monatepil, and neutral endopeptidase inhibitors. Imidazolines are a new generation of central acting drugs.

“The Yellow Wallpaper” illustrate the dangers of the Rest Cure

How does “The Yellow Wallpaper” illustrate the dangers of the Rest Cure as a treatment, especially those related to gender roles? You may include in your answer how late 19th century ideas about women shaped Mitchell’s Rest Cure. But make sure to include references to the short story.

More details;

What is the rest cure in the Yellow Wallpaper?
The cure involved four basic elements: bed rest, force-feeding/overfeeding, massage, and electrical stimulation of the muscles. Later, Mitchell adapted the rest cure to treat hysteria and other nervous disorders in the civilian population.
What is the mental illness in the Yellow Wallpaper?
Nervous exhaustion

The protagonist of the story might have been suffering from puerperal insanity, a severe form of mental illness labelled in the early 19th century. He claimed by doctors to be triggered by the mental and physical strain of giving birth.

What is the symbolic meaning of the yellow wallpaper?
Clearly, the wallpaper represents the structure of family, medicine, and tradition in which the narrator finds herself trapped. Wallpaper is domestic and humble, and Gilman skillfully uses this nightmarish, hideous paper as a symbol of the domestic life that traps so many women.
Who is Jane in Yellow Wallpaper?
There are only two possibilities for the identity of ‘Jane’ in Charlotte Perkins Gilman’s ‘The Yellow Wallpaper’. It is either a typo for Jennie, or Jane refers to the narrator herself. This lesson covers both, and focuses on the argument that Jane is the name of the narrator.

The community mental health nurse Care Programme Approach

/in /by

This is a paper that is focusing on the community mental health nurse Care Programme Approach. The paper also contains various questions in the attachment to further answer the assignment.

The community mental health nurse Care Programme Approach

Question 1
Following a Care Programme Approach meeting, a community mental health nurse (CMHN) trained in smoking cessation visited Jane and her mum at home to discuss Jane’s health needs.  Jane agreed to attend her GP surgery to have her diabetes and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease reviewed, and to discuss her weight and smoking. The CMHN was aware that Jane was taking an antipsychotic treatment (Olanzapine) for a diagnosis of Schizophrenia. Which has weight gaining properties, but acknowledged to Jane that she didn’t know much else about the impact Olanzapine might have on Jane’s physical health.  Jane wanted to stop smoking too. However, was worried that doing so might make her put weight on (she heard this from one of her friends).

At the GP appointment, Jane was told that her body mass index and blood pressure were above the recommended guidelines and he informed her that both problems are likely to be caused by her diet and her smoking.  The GP has suggested that Jane would benefit from joining the local Stop Smoking Group.

Following her appointment with the GP, tells the CMHN that she wants to prioritise losing weight over stopping smoking. Jane also tells the CMHN that she does not want to attend the local National Health Service Stop Smoking Group. She is too embarrass about her weight and is afraid to go.  It’s Jane’s 60th birthday in 5 months’ time and she says that she would like to lose 2 stone and stop smoking by then; she’d also like to know more about the factors that have an impact on her physical health.  She says she is in preparation to do some exercise to lose weight but does not know where to begin.  Jane’s mum has said she would like to help Jane reach her goals too. The CMHN has agreed to visit Jane weekly to monitor her overall physical and mental health. Also, help her lose weight and stop smoking.

Question 1
(a)         Using the template provided formulate a care plan to manage two of Jane’s current challenges. (10 marks)
PLEASE NOTE: the wordage used in your care plan do not count towards the word allowance for answering this question.

Using the breadth of learning from this module:

Discuss and analyse the potential impact of the two care plans for Jane’s health and wellbeing you have written, with reference to holistic and evidenced based care.

This is a paper that focuses on the management of clients with motor speech disorders. The paper also provides a case scenario to analyse on the assignment topic.

The management of clients with motor speech disorders

Overview: The management of clients with motor speech disorders falls under the range of practice area, “speech”. The case study aims to facilitate acquisition of the skills and knowledge required for the evaluation and planning of assessment and treatment of motor speech disorders. There is a particular focus on the application of theoretical principles.

Case Scenario:

You are a newly graduated speech pathologist working on a neurorehabilitation ward. You have received a new referral. Using the case history and data , along with your own independent research, you are to:
1) Firstly, analyse and describe your client’s communication profile. Formulate a differential diagnosis that is theoretically driven and support by research and the case data.
Hypotheses should be regarding the level of breakdown and spared and impaired sensorimotor speech processes using a theoretical model (20%).

2) Secondly, formulate an assessment plan for your client detailing what additional information you would need to gather to guide your management and why. Rationales should be provided, with theoretical and research justification for each assessment goal or area. You should include examples of tasks or measures that you might use (30%).

3) Thirdly, set out an intervention plan with rationale. This should include:
Formulation of long-term goals and treatment period goals and also identification of the treatment approach or tasks you would use with clear justification (20%).
Application of the principles of motor learning to justify and outline the structure of practice and feedback regimen to ensure both acquisition and generalization of skills targeted during the treatment period. You may select one treatment period goal to demonstrate this application and use of motor learning theory (10%).

4) Lastly, outline what treatment outcome measures you will use and how they could be analysed to determine whether your intervention is effective and treatment goals achieved. (10%).
