The case study depicts a 43-year-old white male who presents with a complaint of pain. He uses a set of clutches when ambulating. The patient reports that he has been referred for psychiatric assessment by his family doctor since the doctor perceived that he had psychological pain (Laureate Education, 2016). The pain began seven years ago after sustaining a fall and landed on the right hip. Four years ago, it was revealed that the cartilage around the right hip joint had a 75% tear. However, no surgeon was willing to perform a total hip replacement since they believed that there would be tissue repair over time (Laureate Education, 2016). He reports having severe cramping of the right extremity.

From the case study, it is clear that any practitioner, especially a nurse practitioner, should adhere to the laws and guidelines put forth by the many states as well as the numerous codes of conduct. In addition to providing comprehensive details on what the state expects from the legislation, strategies on what to do in such an instance or with regard to the subjects covered are also supplied. This essay seeks to provide details that could serve as a roadmap for what to anticipate in the scenario described while abiding by the different laws and regulations set forth by the state. (Rosenthal & Burchum, 2021).

Ethical And Legal Implications Of Prescribing Drugs Assignment In the United States, advanced practice nurse practitioners have varying degrees of prescriptive authority, over certain medications and medical devices. They must thus display a comprehensive understanding of the legal implications associated with prescribing drugs, in addition to their ethical obligations (Billstein-Leber et al., 2018). Clinical practice ethical guidelines recommend all clinicians with prescriptive privileges, ensure that their patients are protected from harm. The provided case study however demonstrates a situation where a nurse practitioner prescribed an adult dose of a drug to a 5-year-old. The purpose of this paper is to elaborate on the ethical and legal implications associated with this scenario, and effective mitigating strategies to prevent such occurrences in the future.

Part 2: Plan for social change The US government has adopted a reactive policy to address the antimicrobial resistance. The policy focuses more on surveillance and developing new antimicrobials. However, it appears to have ignored the fact that antimicrobials are being prescribed and used. This is an opportunity for encouraging the correct use of antimicrobials, especially of nursing resources are leveraged to identify the specific patients at high risk of developing antimicrobial resistance given their medical histories. Allowing for this change in the policy would give nurses greater responsibility in antimicrobial resistance initiatives

In a 1,000-1,250 word paper, discuss the influence the IOM report and state-based action coalitions have had on nursing practice, nursing education, and nursing workforce development, and how they continue to advance the goals for the nursing profession.

The Initiatives On Which New York State Action Coalition is Working In sum, the initiatives spearheaded by the New York action coalition comprise improving health equity, building healthier New York communities, improving access to care in the states, and promoting nursing leadership. In addition, they work to increase diversity in nursing, transforming nursing education, collecting workforce data, and enhancing Interprofessional collaboration (Dorritie et al., 2020).

The recommendations emphasized that nurses use their education, training, and competencies and collaborate with other medical staff to avail higher quality care, decrease errors, and increase safety. The four key messages have underscored the need for the inclusion of evidence-based practice in nursing practice, which has provided nurses with scientific research and real-time, data-driven insight to make well-founded decisions (Tierney et al., 2020).

Roles of State-Based Coalitions A mosaic of partners makes up State-based action coalitions. They bring different stakeholders together, including providers, consumers, businesses, and policymakers, being led mutually by nursing and non-nursing staff. These coalitions form strong networks that make and maintain health care advancements. The action units have leveraged local community power, enabling nursing to create healthier communities. The action coalitions develop strategic plans depending on the geographical and local needs to implement the IOM’s report recommendations and realize the campaign’s objectives. The coalitions have assisted in realizing the goals outlined in the IOM report identifying desirable changes to be achieved, coming up with the best practices, and sharing the laid down strategies. Additionally, they conduct research to identify effective models to deliver safe and quality health care services.

Barriers to Nursing Practice in Florida A core barrier to nursing practice in Florida is the lack of recognition of nurses as primary care providers. While nurses have full practice authority and can practice independently in the state, they are still not recognized as primary health providers. Advanced practice registered nurses cannot practice independently in Florida until they accumulate at least 3,000 hours of experience while under the supervision of a physician (Florida Action Coalition, 2022). This requirement is a barrier to nursing practice.

Identify the importance of the IOM “Future of Nursing” report related to nursing practice, nursing education and nursing workforce development. What is the role of state-based action coalitions and how do they advance goals of the Future of Nursing: Campaign for Action?

Future of Nursing Report The changing trends and healthcare demands implore nurses to prepare and position themselves strategically to offer quality care as frontline care providers. The National Academies of Sciences, Engineering, and Medicine in their report “The Future of Nursing 2020-2030: Charting a Path to Achieve Health Equity,” highlight the critical role that nurses play and will continue to play to help the nation attain better health for its population, including reducing costs and emphasizing primary care (Hassmiller, 2021). The report presents eight practical strategies that the nursing profession can employ to advance health equity. The purpose of this paper is to discuss the work of the academies, the role of state-based coalitions, especially in Florida, to help nurses attain health equity.

Trends in Nursing Workforce Influencing Nursing Education to Meet Professional Needs In its report of 2010, the Institute of Medicine (IOM) highlighted the need to nurses to attain higher levels of education and training by having an education system and practice environment which support seamless academic progression. The implication is that trends in nursing workforce are changing nursing education curriculum to equip nurses with the relevant skills, attributes and knowledge to offer quality care to diverse patient populations. The primary goals of nursing education entail preparing nurses to meet diverse needs of patients, function as leaders, and advance science that offers benefits to patients and their ability to deliver safe, quality care (Kleinpell et al., 2022). Further, nursing education should transform in various ways to prepares nurses who have qualities of working collaboratively and effectively in multidisciplinary and inter-professional teams in complex and evolving health care system in different settings.
