Respond to the passage 250 words (agree with the passage)  / 1 reference only 4 years  APA Edition 7

   I would plan on the most effective and efficient way to teach and promote health literacy in the marketplace. I would do this by planning on the most effective way to get my information across to the businesses. I would take charge as a nurse and set up meetings with the different clients. I would also utilize different learning theories models, in order to better get the information across to the client. I understand that the same approach won’t work for every client, so I will have to leave areas in my plan for modification and adjustments. According to our textbook, ” the quality and affordability objective of the ACA is reflected in the marketplace design” (Mason et al., 2016), this, therefore, means that during my plan I will have to focus on the market place design and make sure that the small businesses health plans offer the 10 identified minimum or essential health benefits which include ambulatory patient services; emergency services; hospitalization; maternity, and newborn care; mental health and substance use disorder services; prescription drugs; rehabilitative and rehabilitative services and devices; lab services; preventive and wellness services; and pediatric services.

In nursing practice, accurate identification and application of research is essential to achieving successful outcomes. The ability to articulate research data and summarize relevant content supports the student’s ability to further develop and synthesize the assignments that constitute the components of the capstone project.

The assignment will be used to develop a written implementation plan.

For this assignment, provide a synopsis of the review of the research literature. Using the “Literature Evaluation Table,” determine the level and strength of the evidence for each of the eight research articles you have selected. The articles should be current (within the last 5 years) and closely relate to the PICOT question developed earlier in this course. The articles may include quantitative research, descriptive analyses, longitudinal studies, or meta-analysis articles. A systematic review may be used to provide background information for the purpose or problem identified in the proposed capstone project.

While APA style is not required for the body of this assignment, solid academic writing is expected, and in-text citations and references should be presented using APA documentation guidelines, which can be found in the APA Style Guide, located in the Student Success Center.

Assignment: Assessing Clients With Addictive Disorders

Addictive disorders can be particularly  challenging for clients. Not only do these disorders typically interfere  with a client’s ability to function in daily life, but they also often  manifest as negative and sometimes criminal behaviors. Sometime clients  with addictive disorders also suffer from other mental health issues,  creating even greater struggles for them to overcome. In your role, you  have the opportunity to help clients address their addictions and  improve outcomes for both the clients and their families. For this  Assignment, as you examine the Levy Family video in this week’s Learning Resources, consider how you might assess and treat clients presenting with addiction.

Learning Objectives

Students will:

• Assess clients presenting with addictive disorders
• Analyze therapeutic approaches for treating clients with addictive disorders
• Evaluate outcomes for clients with addictive disorders

To prepare:

• Review this week’s Learning Resources and consider the insights they provide.
• Review the Levy Family video Episodes 1 through 5.

The Assignment

In a 2- to 3-page paper, address the following:

• After watching Episode 1, describe:
  • What is Mr. Levy’s perception of the problem?
  • What is Mrs. Levy’s perception of the problem?
  • What can be some of the implications of the problem on the family as a whole?
• After watching Episode 2, describe:
  • What did you think of Mr. Levy’s social worker’s ideas? 
  • What were your thoughts of her supervisor’s questions about her suggested therapies and his advice to Mr. Levy’s supervisor?
• After watching Episode 3, discuss the following:
  • What were your thoughts about the way Mr. Levy’s therapist responded to what Mr. Levy had to say?
  • What were your impressions of how the therapist worked with Mr. Levy? What did you think about the therapy session as a whole? 
  • Informed by your knowledge of pathophysiology, explain the  physiology of deep breathing (a common technique that we use in helping  clients to manage anxiety). Explain how changing breathing mechanics can  alter blood chemistry.
  • Describe the therapeutic approach his therapist selected. Would  you use exposure therapy with Mr. Levy? Why or why not? What evidence  exists to support the use of exposure therapy (or the therapeutic  approach you would consider if you disagree with exposure therapy)?
• In Episode 4, Mr. Levy tells a very difficult story about Kurt, his platoon officer. 
  • Discuss how you would have responded to this revelation. 
  • Describe how this information would inform your therapeutic approach. What would you say/do next?
• In Episode 5, Mr. Levy’s therapist is having issues with his story. 
  • Imagine that you were providing supervision to this therapist, how would you respond to her concerns?
• Support your approach with evidence-based literature.

Note: The College of Nursing requires that all papers submitted include a title page, introduction, summary, and references.
