For this assignment, you will submit a publish of all items and
questionnaires that will be given to your participants in your study.
The items and questions should be listed in the exact order that they
will be given to participants. You may use questionnaires that you have
designed, questionnaires used in previous research, or any combination
thereof. Your instructor will provide feedback so that these materials
may be improved before data collection. (you actually helped my with

THE NURSE LEADER AS KNOWLEDGE WORKER
The term “knowledge worker” was first coined by management consultant and author Peter Drucker in his book, The Landmarks of Tomorrow (1959). Drucker defined knowledge workers as high-level workers who apply theoretical and analytical knowledge, acquired through formal training, to develop products and services. Does this sound familiar?
Nurses are very much knowledge workers. What has changed since Drucker’s time are the ways that knowledge can be acquired. The volume of data that can now be generated and the tools used to access this data have evolved significantly in recent years and helped healthcare professionals (among many others) to assume the role of knowledge worker in new and powerful ways.
In this Assignment, you will consider the evolving role of the nurse leader and how this evolution has led nurse leaders to assume the role of knowledge worker. You will prepare a PowerPoint presentation with an infographic (graphic that visually represents information, data, or knowledge. Infographics are intended to present information quickly and clearly.) to educate others on the role of nurse as knowledge worker.

Project – Educational Pamphlet Project | W07
PLEASE NOTE: THIS PAMPHLET MUST HAVE IMAGES, REFERENCES (APA FORMAT), AND BE PROFESSIONAL.
MY TOPIC IS ANEMIA
Guidelines
This course includes an individual project that involves the development of an Educational Pamphlet to teach an individual about the appropriate nutritional intervention with the following conditions:
Anemia
The pamphlet should include (i) step by
step instructions and/or details about the nutritional intervention for
the selected condition, (ii) visual aids, (iii) informational websites,
community resources, support groups and telephones numbers for a patient
to obtain additional information and (iv) other information necessary
to educate a patient. Students must also include a separate reference
sheet indicating the sources where they obtained the information
utilized for the project. Students will be required to present their
pamphlet to the class (see course calendar for dates). Dates will be
assigned by the course instructor. The pamphlet must be submitted
through Canvas in order for the paper to be uploaded to Turnitin®.
The rubric below will be utilized to grade the paper.

Target:
analyze internal and external data to evaluate performance and develop improved medical service outcomes for all stakeholders
You are an intern in a healthcare organization’s business office. Use the Dehew Health System income statement in the attachment; please develop a 4-6 page paper responding to the following questions regarding the income statement:
1. What is an income statement used for?
2. What are the key components of an income statement?
3. On your example of an income statement, is the organization making a profit or loss? How much is that profit or loss? Show the calculations. (Total Revenues – Total Expenses = Net Profit/Loss)
4. On your example of an income statement, what is the “total contribution margin”? Show the calculations. (Net Sales – Total Variable Costs=Total Contribution Margin). Also, calculate the contribution per unit of service (UOS). If you are not using the sample financial statement, you can use the assumption that volume is 15,000 UOS if not included in financial statements.
5. What three financial indicators does a contribution margin help determine? How?
6. What is break-even analysis? What is the break-even point for this organization? List expenses assigned as variable and fixed. Show the calculations. (Net Patient Revenue – Variable Costs = Contribution Margin. Contribution margin/UOS = CM per UOS. Fixed Costs/CM per UOS = # of UOS to Breakeven).
7. How does a break-even analysis vary between fee-for-service and capitated payments? Explain it using the income statement you chose. What are the similarities and differences applicable to the Income statements in fee-for-service and capitated payment options?
The paper should not be more than 6 pages and should follow APA format, spelling, and grammar. Include a cover page and reference page (not included in the page count). Make sure to properly cite and reference all the used sources. The calculations need to be shown as formulas using figures. Follow the mathematical rules while calculating numbers.
Acknowledgment: The Income Statement for the Dehew Health System was developed and contributed to HMGT 322 by Professor Rob Parker.
**Informational Note:
Net Sales, in our case = Net PT Revenue
All variable expenses are identified on the sample income statement. If you are not using the sample income statement, then you need to list the variable costs you identified on the income statement you are using for the assignment.

Directions
All students should complete Part 1, choose two (2) cases of your preference. All students should complete Part 2. Note: All case studies are provided as a learning tool for students who wish to have them. Part 1 – Choose 2 of the 5 cases The following activity includes several case presentations of edema. Make a diagnosis for each case, remembering the following questions: Is the edema acute/sudden or chronic (e.g., duration, progression)?
Is it unilateral or bilateral? Is the edema generalized or localized?
Is it pitting or nonpitting?
Is it dependent?
In addition to edema, what other characteristics are associated with the edema (e.g., redness, pain)?
What is the pertinent past or coexisting medical history? What medications is the patient taking?
You may want to refer to chapter 3 and chapter 4 to help determine the diagnosis. Case 1
45-year-old Mrs. Rodriguez is complaining of intermittent mild bilateral feet/ankle swelling for the past 2 months, but it is worse on her right leg. She denies leg pain, but she does describe her legs as feeling heavy at times and reports standing for long periods worsens the swelling. She notes her veins are getting larger in her legs. For the past 8 months, she has been experiencing intermittent numbness in her feet and reports her left knee has been achy. She is a server at a busy restaurant and sometimes works 10-hour days. She denies any fever, warmth, erythema, or trauma. Past medical history: obesity (BMI 31); type 2 diabetes mellitus. Medications: metformin. Physical examination: vital signs are within normal limits; exam is unremarkable except for bilateral tortuous veins in both lower extremities, which are worse on the right leg, and decreased sensation in both feet. Note: Assume history and examination is within normal limits if not listed. Activity
Identify the probable diagnosis and what data support your decision. Describe the pathogenesis for the diagnosis. What data are inconsistent with your diagnosis? What diagnostic tests would you order, if any, and how would you treat this patient? Case 2
68-year-old Mr. Quincy is complaining of left leg swelling for the past 2 weeks. The swelling started while he was on a cruise. The swelling is intermittent and below the knee to his foot. He describes a cramplike pain in his left calf. Lately, both legs have been cramping while walking, but it resolves when he sits. He denies any fever, warmth, erythema, or trauma. Past medical history: iliofemoral deep vein thrombosis of his left leg after he had left hip replacement for osteoarthritis 9 months ago; treated with rivaroxaban for 6 months; stable angina; obesity (BMI 31); dyslipidemia.

A venous duplex Doppler ultrasound of his left leg was done and reveals no deep vein thrombosis. Activity
Identify the probable diagnosis and what data support your decision. Describe the pathogenesis for the diagnosis. What data are inconsistent with your diagnosis? What diagnostic tests would you order, if any, and how would you treat this patient? Case 3
