Paper , Order, or Assignment Requirements

Social workers are slowly realizing that improving the wellbeing of rural (and urban) clients requires a commitment to the revitalization of poor rural (and urban) communities where their clients live. Having a community development dimension to one’s practice not only involves the expansion and improvement of social and medical services, but also economic development, housing rehabilitation and/or construction, community planning and organizing, and quality of life activities such as neighborhood security, community gardens and recreation programs. Few social workers are aware of the opportunities to pursue careers in rural and urban development despite the fact that their skills are definitely applicable and needed at the community level. Based on the learning material presented in this final module, discuss how a social worker could help clients and communities build their social and human capital

Evaluate and reflect on their own ability to implement strategies to lead teams and care coordination

Case Study for Part B

Luigi develops an ulcer on his right leg that will not heal despite oral antibiotics and becomes infected, causing cellulitis to develop over his lower right leg. He is unable to walk unaided. His diabetes remains poorly controlled due to poor understanding and compliance with his diabetic diet as his wife does all the cooking. As a result his renal function is deteriorating. He is admitted to hospital for IV antibiotics, stabilisation of his diabetes and care of his worsening leg ulcer. He is commenced on sliding scale insulin titrated to his BGL�s whilst in hospital and IV Ceftriaxone. He is extremely upset that he has to remain in hospital as his son is away and his wife is home alone.

Rationale
It is known that chronic disease is the leading cause of death across the world (Johnson & Chang, 2014). Nurses need to be able to provide care to all health consumers, with a significant role in assessing a person, planning care, communicating with colleagues and ensuring that the holistic needs are met and evaluated. The ongoing nature of the conditions can result in longer term debilitating outcomes if not addressed appropriately. Children, young people, adults and older adults all experience the full range of health issues yet manage them differently.

This assessment task addresses the following subject learning outcomes:
�Plan nursing care for patients with complex co-morbidities demonstrating rationale for how one affects the other.
�Plan nursing care of a patient with a co-morbidity in consultation with individuals/groups significant others and the interdisciplinary health care team in the clinical setting
�Collaborate with the interdisciplinary health care team to provide comprehensive nursing care in the clinical setting
�Evaluate and reflect on their own ability to implement strategies to lead teams and care coordination

The equipment is expected to have an economic life of 5 years with an expected salvage value at the end of Year 5 of $50,000. The estimated residual value at the end of the lease term is $80,000 and the terms of the lease require that the lessee guarantees $60,000 of the residual value. The lessee is required to make 4 annual payments of $120,000, due on 30 June, each year. Included in the annual lease payments is $20,000 representing payment to the lessor for expected executory costs relating to insurance and maintenance of the equipment. At the end of the lease term the asset reverts to the lessor. The lessor incurs $15,000 in initial direct costs.

The implicit interest rate in the lease is 20%. The present value of an annuity due for 4 periods at 20% is 3.106. The present value of an amount for 4 periods at 20% is .482.
