Adolescence

Part 1: Create the Case: Adolescence
Create a simulated case study, relevant to your area of specialization, of an adolescent who presents developmental challenges related to Erikson’s age- or stage-related milestones expected at his or her age.
Your case study should be 1–2 pages in length and it should describe:
• The adolescent and his or her strengths and challenges.
• A challenge for the adolescent in terms of identity and self-concept.
• The medical, family, and social context.
• The developmental challenges evident in the behavior of the adolescent.
• Evidence in the case that the adolescent struggles by not meeting the expected milestones of Erikson’s theory of adolescent development.
• Individual and cultural factors that theory and/or research indicate could impact the adolescent’s development.
• Any other factors you deem appropriate based on your understanding of the theory and related research.
To develop this case, you should:
• Explore theory and research related to development linked to adolescence.
• Utilize current research on adolescent brain development to describe potential outcomes linked to brain development at this age, including important considerations in the case you are developing.
• Develop your case study further by creating an environmental context for the adolescent. Include any specific issues that you want to explore through research, such as influences of a specific culture or ethnicity or specific socioeconomic status.
• Maintain a resource list of the materials you consulted to build your case.
Follow current APA guidelines for style and formatting, as well as for citing your resources. Include a reference list of the scholarly resources you use.
Part 2: Adolescent Case Intervention Analysis
Research
Complete the following:
• Research evidence-based interventions that have been effective in meeting the challenges of the adolescent you described in your case study, from the perspective of your own professional specialization (as far as possible).
o Explain how the deficits in the social-emotional developmental domain impact development.
o Explain how the environmental contexts impact development.
o State the recommended interventions that align with your specialization.
o Include evidence for those recommendations and outcomes from the professional literature.
Explore briefly the literature on adult identity and self-concept, considering that early influences can impact development across the lifespan.
o Explain, from the perspective of your specialization, how the identity issues (for example, Erikson’s theoretical perspective) that emerged in adolescence could be manifested in adulthood.
o Explain how this might help in understanding and determining an approach to working with an adult with a history of identity issues.

Describe the issue o Use appropriate evidence from scholarly literature to describe the issue and discuss what is known about the issue/challenge.

Written assignment: “Nursing Process applied to a Family” 2,000 words Weighting: 40 % Aim: The aim of this written assessment item is to apply the nursing process in providing family centred care. When an infant, young child or adolescent experiences a health or social issue, the issue can impact upon all family members. Nurses working in acute care and community settings need to understand the functioning of the family unit so they can care for and assist the whole family. This written assignment addresses course learning outcomes 2 and 3: 2. Demonstrate an understanding of the functioning of the family unit using family assessment models that enable families to make health decisions; 3. Plan and evaluate evidence-based nursing for families across the lifespan. Instructions: This 2000 word written assignment has two distinct parts that you should address separately. Please use headings for each part. You do not need to provide an introduction or a conclusion for the written assignment or any of the parts. There are two family scenarios for you to choose from; select ONE scenario and use this for your entire assignment. Part 1 – Nursing Care of the Family: Assessment (500 words) • Create a genogram to visually depict the family’s structure. You must use the PowerPoint slide which will be supplied to you within the Assessment Folder on Learning@Griffith course site to create your genogram. Save the slide as a picture file (*.jpeg), and insert the picture into your document. • Below the genogram, summarise the structure of the family to demonstrate your understanding of the family assessment findings. • Use the Australian Family Strengths Nursing Assessment Guide (AFSNAG) to identify and briefly describe two (2) strengths of the family you are assessing. 2 Part 2 – Nursing Care of the Family: Planning, Implementing and Evaluating (1,500 words) • Select two (2) issues/challenges for the family or a member of the family you have selected. These issues may be identified by the nurse, family or both. These can be health, social, or developmental family issues/challenges e.g., breastfeeding, social isolation, transition to parenting; they should not be ‘medical’ issues e.g., diabetes, high blood pressure. • For each issue/challenge identified in the family assessment (allow approximately 750 words per issue): a) Describe the issue o Use appropriate evidence from scholarly literature to describe the issue and discuss what is known about the issue/challenge. b) Plan nursing care o Provide a relevant nursing goal and justify the goal (explain why it is relevant to the issue) using appropriate evidence or policies. c) Implement nursing care o Outline one nursing intervention that supports the family to achieve the goal. Each nursing intervention should be supplemented by the recommendation of an existing online resource for the family and an appropriate referral. d) Evaluate nursing care o Describe how you would evaluate the effectiveness of the intervention to address whether it met the planned goal of care

What method of sales force organization would be most appropriate for: (a) a national company that sells a computerized billing system for small physician prac¬tices, and (b) a manufacturer of adhesive bandages and sutures?

After studying chapter 13 and 14, do the following assignment and submit it through the Turnitin link shown below this assignment.
Questions:
Chapter 13:
What method of sales force organization would be most appropriate for: (a) a national company that sells a computerized billing system for small physician prac¬tices, and (b) a manufacturer of adhesive bandages and sutures? A manufacturer of prosthetic devices has decided to review his company’s sales compensation system. Historically, salespeople were paid on straight salary. While the company has grown in recent years, the president is concerned that the sales force could gener¬ate more sales volume. A major part of the sales job is missionary, yet with the increasing number of physician groups expanding into rehabilitation medicine, a new target market is possible. The manufacturer is also concerned that not all the products in the line have the same margin. What form of compensation would you recommend?
Chapter 14:
At a recent strategic planning retreat of a 40¬person multispecialty group, the administrator made a presentation that focused on the coming year’s plans to establish the organization’s first two primary care satel¬lites, which would be located in the two growing sub¬urbs of the community. These new additions would require the hiring of four family practitioners and other support staff. When the administrator finished her pre¬sentation, one of the most senior physicians stood up and said, “This is a foolish expenditure. We’re so busy now in this group, we can’t even see another patient. Our revenue was up 14 percent according to the previous financial presentation we heard. There is no reason to change what we’re doing.” How might you respond to this physician? A medical group recently conducted an advertis¬ing campaign for its new pediatric orthopedics depart¬ment. After four weeks, a telephone survey found that 42 percent of the families with children under the age of 18 years were aware of the service. Six months later, it found that 12 percent had actually used the service, and 3 percent said they were regular users of the facility for their children’s orthopedic needs. Compare this organization’s advertising performance to that of the hospital discussed in Table 14–7 in this chapter. How does this organization compare in terms of its media, creative, and service effectiveness ratios? Where might the medical group need to make adjustments? For this medical group the advertising control num¬bers were as follows:
Number Aware of Service
=
42%
Tried Service
=
12%
Regularly Used Service
=
3%
Media Effectiveness Ratio
=
42%
Creative Effectiveness Ratio
=
12%/42% = 28.5%
Service Effectiveness Ratio
=
25%

Explore federal agencies that are concerned with Women’s Health. Which ones may be of benefit to vulnerable populations? Explore nonprofit agencies that are concerned with Women’s Health.

Vulnerability may arise from individual, community, or larger population challenges and requires different types of policy interventions—from social and economic development of neighborhoods and communities, and educational and income policies, to individual medical interventions. Values affect how society views the vulnerable—as victims or sinners—and thus whether or not to provide public assistance. There are programs available to help vulnerable populations gain access to opportunities that support their full participation in society. Each provides a dedicated source of financial and technical assistance for projects and activities in their respective programming areas.
