Read the following scenario:
Imagine that, for about a year, your nursing unit has been involved in an intensive campaign to improve patient satisfaction scores with pain management. You are getting good data from your patients, as the length of stay on this inpatient geriatric medical nursing unit is only about 6 days. Your hospital does 100% survey to inpatients, and the response rate is about 25%, which is higher than it has been. This notwithstanding, the percent of patient very satisfied (top box), with a score of 5, has been in the low 70s. The national benchmark for medical surgical units like yours is about 85% very satisfied. Of all the units in your hospital, your unit is the lowest scoring on this HCAPHS survey. But as your unit is the only geriatric medical nursing unit in the hospital, youd always thought it was the nature of the patient population.
You have been the day shift representative to the QI team, and the scores on your unit are posted monthly. Here are the numerous strategies that have been tried on your unit and the timeframes.
For this Discussion, examine the strategies and interventions tried in your unit and consider the following questions: a) Were the strategies effective in creating a sustainable change on your nursing unit, and b) To what extent can your nurse manager and CNO count on your unit exceeding the national benchmark in the next quarter, the next year? That is, does this run chart have some predictive ability? Does the run chart support the nursing units decision to celebrate? To what extent can the leadership be confident that the trend will continue?
Based on the scenario, explain what was done successfully and where improvement was needed in the quality improvement process. Identify the performance improvement tools, and explain how they contributed to the outcome.

From Student’s Guide to Critical Thinking
I will attach the book that assignment is referring to as on where to get topic from on pages 210-217. I will also attach a SAMPLE essay that she gave for us to read. But a new paper has to be written from a selection topic on pages 210-217.
Writing a Critical Essay A critical essay is one in which you analyze and critically evaluate another persons argument. Write an 800- to 1,000-word critical essay on one of the selections on pages 210217. Your essay should include the following four elements.
Introduction: Identify the title, author, and context of the essay you are critically evaluating. Summarize very briey the writers basic position and state in general terms your overall evaluation of the argument.
Argument summary: Standardize the writers argument using the ve-step method presented in Chapter 7 (or, if your instructor prefers, summarize the argument in paragraph form).
Critical evaluation: Evaluate the argument; that is, say whether you think the argument is a good, convincing argument and give reasons to support your view. You may nd it helpful to keep in mind the following general guidelines on evaluating arguments, discussed earlier in this chapter: Are the premises true? ( Note: You may need to do some research to make an informed judgment on this issue.) Is the reasoning good? Is the argument deductively valid or inductively strong? Does the arguer commit any logical fallacies? Does the writer express his or her points clearly and precisely? Are the arguers claims logically consistent? Is the argument complete? Is all relevant evidence taken into account?
CHAPTER 8 Evaluating Arguments and Truth Claims
Is the argument fair? Is the arguer fair in his or her presentation of the evidence and treatment of opposing arguments and views?
Conclusion: Briey restate the key points of your critical response to reinforce them in the readers mind. If possible, end with a strong concluding line (e.g., an apt quotation) that nicely sums up your response or puts the issue in a larger context. A sample critical essay is included in an appendix to this chapter.
You may use other sources to support your points–be sure to include proper MLA in-text citing and works cited.

Complete and submit the assignment by 23:59 on Sunday.
Note: this is the Part 2 of your Quality Improvement Project. You should revise/improve your work based on your professor’s feedback. In module 7, you will be putting all the parts together to complete and submit your final project.
Task: Upload a response to the following questions. Each question is worth 1 point. Clear and focused answers will receive full marks. Please answer each question in 3 sentences or less.
1. At six months of age, infants can start solid food. Describe why it would concern you if an infant between 4-6 months were provided too much food?.
2. Infants start eating solids at six months and continue to develop skills and progress to eating more foods over six months and beyond. Describe the typical meal pattern you would expect to see for an infant at 12 months of age and how it is different than at 6months.
3. Explain why telling a child they have obesity and telling a family to focus on monitoring a child’s weight is unlikely to increase healthy behaviors and may be harmful. (This statement is based on the Ellyn Satter Institute and weight stigma content).
4. If health care providers should avoid directly telling a child they are overweight, what is the purpose of measuring weights, and how should that inform their recommendations? (no right answer to this question, generally interested in your thought process. Vague/overtly general answers will be deducted points)
5. Provide your rationale for your True or False answer on the exam “Increasing rates of childhood obesity should be targeted through educating children to make better choices in their foods.”

DESCARTES AND PHENOMENOLOGY

Do animals think?
SLP Assignment Expectations
Please write a 3- to 5-page paper answering this rather general question.

Upload it by the end of this module.
Module 4 – Case
DESCARTES AND PHENOMENOLOGY
Case Assignment
Descartes tells us that, in order to see what is real, we must first doubt all we know with our senses. Our senses can deceive us. Are we dreaming? Are we being manipulated by an evil genius? Are we living in The Matrix where we are waiting for Keanu Reaves to rescue us? (I suppose that would be the most disturbing option!)
In this case, we want to get at this notion of doubt. We will be reading from Descartes’ Meditations on First Philosophy.
It is recommended that students read the first six meditations of Descartes’ Meditations on First Philosophy. The FULL TEXT can be found here:
Descartes, R. (n.d.). Meditations On First Philosophy. Retrieved December 29, 2015, from http://selfpace.uconn.edu/class/percep/DescartesMeditations.pdf
Is Descartes’ argument against trusting the senses a good one? What appeals to you most, and what do you find odd?
Assignment Expectations
Please answer the question above, carefully referencing the text, in a paper of no more than 3- to 5-pages.
Upload it by the end of this module.

Tell me what your position on the problem is, and what the relevant utilitarian and deontological considerations are. Who is being, or will be, hurt? Who is being, or will be, benefited? Why, overall, do you think your position on the issue is for the greatest good over the long haul? Whose rights are involved? Who has special duties?
Here are some possible topics:
