question:Provision 1: “The nurse, in all professional relationships, practices with compassion and respect for the inherent dignity, worth and uniqueness of every individual, unrestricted by considerations of social or economic status, personal attributes, or the nature of health problems.”

The world is made up of numerous types of people, cultures, societies, worldviews, religions, opinions and values. This is part of what makes humanity unique, special, complex and prone to conflict. The very thing that brings beauty to mankind can make it difficult for people to coincide in peace with one another. Consider for a moment the differences of each person below.

  • Person A – Born in London, she is 88 years old. She has lived in six different countries, has had two marriages and four children, and has been the CEO of a large financial trading company.
  • Person B – Born in LA, California, she is 23 years old. She has two children, and currently works night shift at a local casino.
  • Person C – Born in Oklahoma, he is 43 years old. He is married with two children and works as a local pastor in a large denomination church.
  • Person D – Born in New England, he is 33 years old. He is not married and has no children. He resides at a federal detention center, having been sentenced to a 25-year prison term for a crime he says he did not commit.

Journal Reflection #1:

Person A has a medical diagnosis of Dementia, Person B has ovarian cancer, Person C has HIV, Person D has self-inflicted abdominal wound.

Are you surprised to learn of each person’s diagnosis? How may some people treat each person differently because of their diagnosis?

Journal Reflection #2:

Define the terms dignity and respect in your own word. Give three examples of how a nurse can show dignity and respect to a patient regardless of social, economic status or medical diagnosis. Why would it be difficult to treat people with dignity and respect?

Provision 2: “The nurse’s primary commitment is to the patient, whether an individual, family, group or community.”

In a changing medical world, that is continually advancing and demanding more from all who are involved, priorities can get mixed up and patients can be forgotten about. Consider the following two scenarios. 

Scenario 1: A 10-year-old child has suffered a motor vehicle accident. Due to multiple traumas associated with the injury, the patient is now ventilator-dependent, G-tube dependent, and shows little activity on the EKG beyond consistent seizures. (This means the patient cannot breath on his own, cannot eat on his own and brain testing shows little activity, but confirms frequent seizure activity). The mother of the child is ready to withdrawal care for palliation purposes. The father is committed to providing every medical intervention possible to sustain the child’s life.

Journal Reflection #3:

Who is the nurse responsible for in this scenario, the patient, the parents or both? Who is “right” in this scenario, the mother or the father? You must pick a side and build an argument to support your answer, credit will not be given if you do not pick a side, and there is no middle ground. Can the nurse be truly objective in this situation? How could emotional feelings of the nurse affect patient care?

Scenario 2: A 17-year-old patient has Duchene Muscular Dystrophy complicated with multi organ failure. The patient is neurologically alert but again has entered into multi-organ failure. From a medical perspective there is no way to save the patient’s life. The 17 year old patient will die in the near future. The parents have decided to not tell the patient about the decline in his condition. Instead, they have asked the medical staff to stay upbeat and optimistic, encouraging the patient to work toward getting better.

Journal Reflection #4:

Is the nurse ethically obligated to tell the patient about the decline in his condition, or is the nurse ethically obligated to honor the parents’ wishes? Again, pick a side, build an argument and articulate your perspective.

Provision 3: “The nurse promotes, advocates for, and strives to protect the health, safety, and rights of the patient.” 

Being the voice of the patient is a key concept of nurse advocacy. This topic will be discussed more thoroughly later in the course. Respond to the following question.

Journal Reflection #5:

Create Bill of Rights for the Patient. Include 6 “rights” that should be given to every patient and explain why you picked each one. There are many bills of rights for patients that already exist, your work will be checked for plagiarisso just do not do it. This is easy; you pick the six most important rights and build a case as to why they are important.

Question:

The global commercial airline industry has experienced a substantial amount of volatility since the financial crises of 2007-2008. The price of oil rose sharply in mid 2008, then declined just as dramatically a few months later, then rose again for a sustained period of time, until prices began to fall in mid-2014. Consider the periods when oil prices were high. During these periods, increased fuel costs were passed along to consumers as increased airfares and air travel declined. Certain airlines had to reduce flights during these periods or even temporarily stop operations. To examine the situation facing one airline. Let’s consider a hypothetical airline, Fenwick Air. Assume that the total cost function for Fenwick Air is given by

TC=q3 – 30q2 +400q +8000 and consequently, the airline faces marginal costs of

MC = 3q2 – 60q + 400

where q is the number of passengers transported (in thousands of passengers per month) and costs are in dollars. For the purpose of this question we will assume Fenwick Air is in a perfectly competitive market, and is a price taker with respect to airline ticket pricing, and that all airline tickets are the same.

A. Suppose that prior to the decline in air travel, the market price for airline tickets was $400. How many passengers should the airline transport in order to maximize profit in the short run? What profit would it earn? She Fenwick Air continue to operate in the short run or shut down?

B. Suppose that there is a decline in air travel, and the drop in demand for airline travel causes tickets to fall to $100 each. At this price, Fenwick Air has calculated a new profit-maximizing level of q = 10 if it were to continue to operate. What is Fenwick’s profit at this price and quantity (P = 100 and q = 10)? Should it continue to operate in the short run or shut down?

C. The basic analysis of a competitive firm’s shut down decision in the short run is well accepted in economics, but it is not the case that firms will always shut down according to the “textbook rule”. Give two reasons explaining why airlines in particular might choose to continue operating in the short-run, even if the shut-down condition says they should stop operations temporarily. One or two sentences explaining each reason is sufficient.
