Transition from home to assisted living in old age

Assignment 3: Transitions and Aging | Value 30%


This assignment should be completed sometime between Units 5 and 9.


For this assignment you will write a paper in which you explore a common transition faced by older adults. This transition may relate to a health transition (e.g. illness), a transition in living environment (e.g., a move to an assisted living facility or a long-term care facility), or dying or death. The emphasis in this assignment is to examine how older adults face into a transition, including the psychosocial, existential, and family ramifications. For instance, you might choose to focus on grief and loss as a response to moving into a long-term care facility. Within this paper, you will examine how older adults experience this grief and loss, how family members respond, as well as existential issues that may arise from this transition (e.g., Who am I now that I am institutionalized?)


Assignment 3 must:


  • be seven to eight pages in length; not to exceed eight, excluding title page, references, and appendices;
  • be typed, double–spaced, single-sided, with margins of 2.5 cm on all sides;
  • follow the style guidelines found in the 6th edition of the APA Publication Manual; and
  • include references to provide evidence of application of theory.

Describe your preferred learning strategies. Compare your current preferred learning strategies to the identified strategies for your preferred learning style.

/in /by
Description

Learning styles represent the different approaches to learning based on preferences, weaknesses, and strengths. For learners to best achieve the desired educational outcome, learning styles must be considered when creating a plan. Complete “The VARK Questionnaire,” located on the VARK website, and then complete the following:

  1. Click “OK” to receive your questionnaire scores.
  2. Once you have determined your preferred learning style, review the corresponding link to view your learning preference.
  3. Review the other learning styles: visual, aural, read/write, kinesthetic, and multimodal (listed on the VARK Questionnaire Results page).
  4. Compare your current preferred learning strategies to the identified strategies for your preferred learning style.
  5. Examine how awareness of learning styles has influenced your perceptions of teaching and learning.

In a paper (750‐1,000 words), summarize your analysis of this exercise and discuss the overall value of learning styles. Include the following:

  1. Provide a summary of your learning style according the VARK questionnaire.
  2. Describe your preferred learning strategies. Compare your current preferred learning strategies to the identified strategies for your preferred learning style.
  3. Describe how individual learning styles affect the degree to which a learner can understand or perform educational activities. Discuss the importance of an educator identifying individual learning styles and preferences when working with learners.
  4. Discuss why understanding the learning styles of individuals participating in health promotion is important to achieving the desired outcome. How do learning styles ultimately affect the possibility for a behavioral change? How would different learning styles be accommodated in health promotion?

Cite to at least three peer‐reviewed or scholarly sources to complete this assignment. Sources should be published within the last 5 years and appropriate for the assignment criteria.

Prepare this assignment according to the guidelines found in the APA Style Guide, located in the Student Success Center. An abstract is not required.

Several researchers felt that certain dietary habits increased an individual’s chance of developing colon cancer.

/in /by
Description

Assignment I –
Module 6 Case Study/ Problem Set – Measures of Association

Question 1: Several researchers felt that certain dietary habits
increased an individual’s chance of developing colon cancer. To test this
hypothesis, the researchers identified a group of patients whose initial
diagnosis on admission was colon cancer. Another group of admitted patients
with non-cancer diagnosis were used as a control group. Patients in both groups
were interviewed to find out about their dietary habits. The interviewers did
not know which patients had cancer and which did not. Table 1 shows data that
resulted from the study.

1.    What type of study is this?

2.    On what basis dis you decide on the type of
study it represents?

3.    Is there an association between exposure and
the disease? Interpret your results. 

Question 2: To
investigate the association between psychological variables and coronary heart
disease, a group of researchers randomly sampled persons without coronary heart
disease into groups as having behavior pattern type A and type B. These persons
were followed over a period of time to see how many developed coronary heart
diseases (CHD).

The type A behavior pattern is defined as manifesting an intense
sustained drive for achievement and as being continually involved in
competition and deadline. Type B is more relaxed, not showing this intense
drive and involvement in competition. The researchers hypothesize that people
with type A personalities will exhibit a greater amount of CHD because of the
psychological stress of their way of life.  Table 2 shows data that
resulted from the study.

1.    What type of study is this?

2.    On what basis dis you decide on the type of
study it represents?

3.    Is there an association between exposure and
the disease? Interpret your results. 

Question 3: In
an earlier study of coronary heart disease and personality type, trained
investigators were sent out to interview a random sample of people aged 40-59
in a small community. Each respondent was asked questions which established
their personality as type A or type B. A medical history was taken to determine
the presence or absence of coronary heart disease. Table 3 shows data that
resulted from the study.

1.    What type of study is this?

2.    On what basis dis you decide on the type of
study it represents?

3.    Is there an association between exposure and
the disease? Interpret your results. 

Question 4: You
are concerned about the relation between toxic waste sites and nervous system
disorders. You identify 300 people who were recently diagnosed with nervous
system disorders in Pennsylvania. This group includes all individuals diagnosed
nervous system disorders in 2018. You then randomly select a group of 300
healthy individuals from Pennsylvania, frequency-matching on age, sex and
county of residence. You find that those with nervous system disorders, 210
have a large toxic waste site within a mile of their home. Of the controls, 170
have a large toxic waste site within a mile of their home.

1.    What study design is this?

2.    On what basis did you determine the study
design?

3.    Given the data above, create a 2X2 table.

4.    Calculate the appropriate measure of
association between toxic waste site and nervous system disorders. Interpret
your results.

Description

Assessment Task Overview 

Transitioning to professional practice is a critical phase for the novice Registered Nurse.
Managing professional role requirements, organisational technologies and team dynamics
while on shift can be challenging. This is often accompanied by changed personal
circumstances, with graduates balancing shift work, working full time and socialisation
with friends and family. The case study below highlights the professional and personal
challenges you may face as a Graduate Registered Nurse. 

Case Study Background
Alex is a Graduate Registered Nurse (RN) who is 8 weeks into his first graduate rotation at
the local metropolitan, tertiary hospital. He is currently working on a gastrointestinal
ward which cares for medical and surgical patients. For the first four weeks Alex worked
alongside his nurse preceptor, predominately rostered on morning shifts. Alex has just
completed his first five (5) night shifts yesterday morning, and is back on an afternoon
shift today (Saturday).
Alex is still trying to manage his roster and other commitments like playing sport and
catching up with friends. Today, Alex is feeling tired and frustrated because he slept
through his alarm this morning and missed a family breakfast to celebrate his sister’s
birthday. He is also disappointed that the he can’t watch tonight’s football game with his
friends.
