CASE STUDY:
Madison Wills worked night shift on a neonatal intensive care unit (NICU) at a major medical center. She assumed the care of a very sick premature infant who weighed 1 kg (a little over 2 lb). Sylvia Smithson had been the infant’s nurse during the day shift. Sylvia had started the infant’s intravenous (IV) antibiotic infusion at 6:30 p.m., just before shift change. She reported that the infant’s IV line in his arm was flowing without difficulty and the IV site had no redness or swelling.
When Madison assessed the infant at 7:45 after the end-of-shift report, she noted that the baby’s arm was swollen and that the IV had infiltrated (was no longer in the vein). When she stopped the medication, she also noted that the dose on the antibiotics was incorrect and was much too large for a very small infant.
Answer the following questions:
What is the first thing that Madison should do after discovering these two problems?
Which of these problems (the infiltration or the dosing) was the most significant?
What is the nurse’s responsibility when an antibiotic is prepared by the pharmacy?
Did malpractice occur? Why or why not? 
Who would you hold responsible for the errors which occurred? Why? 
What could have been done to prevent the errors?

For this online discussion, you will:
Participate in a “panel discussion” for an imaginary town hall audience on “Today’s Big Idea.” 
Write an initial post in the voice of an author of one of the closed research theme readings or a major respondent in that reading.
Respond to at least two peers, staying in the voice of your selected author or respondent.
To prepare:
Read all reading assignments from “They Say / I Say” in this module
Complete the M04 Closed Research Theme Reading Check-In
A “Panel Discussion” is a public event in which a group of informed people gathers together in front of an audience to discuss a specific topic, usually led by a moderator who asks their own questions or takes questions from the audience. Watch a few minutes of the video below to get a sense of how a panel discussion works:
 
In this discussion, you will write in the voice of the author of one of the closed research theme readings. Alternatively, you may write in the voice of a major respondent, expert, or witness who is interviewed or quoted in a closed research theme reading, if you think theirs is a more relevant perspective on the closed research theme. You will be playing this “character” in the panel discussion, adopting their positions and/or responding the way you think they would respond to others in the discussion. 
To begin, review the 6 closed research theme readings you have read so far; pick one author or one major respondent you will play in the panel discussion. You will be playing this “character” in the panel discussion for the whole board (initial posts and responses). You need to write in their voice and remain in character throughout the discussion.
Then start a new thread in this board and respond to the following prompt. Click the Post Reply button to submit your initial post: 
Identify yourself as the author or respondent you have selected as well as the title of the reading and the person’s role in the reading.

Example: “I’m Alex Tizon, author of ‘Lola’s Story.'” 
Example: “I’m Lola, a major figure in Alex Tizon’s ‘Lola’s Story.'”

In the voice of your selected “character,” respond to one or more of the following questions. You can think of these as the questions you are being asked by the moderator or audience member:

How would you answer the guiding question for this section’s closed research theme? (If needed, you can find your class’s closed research theme question in Modules)
What issue regarding the closed research theme do you see as most important or most overlooked? What do you want the panel audience or other panel members to see and understand?
What action, solution, or policy, related to the closed research theme, is closest to your heart? What do you want the panel audience, other panel members, and/or others in society to take action on?

Remember, think about what your “character” (author or major respondent) would believe, know, want, value, etc. This may not be what you personally know or believe, at all! Stick to their perspective and viewpoints as much as you can, based on what you know about their views from the closed research theme reading. 

Visual Layout Draft
[WLOs: 4, 5] [CLOs: 1, 3, 4]
Throughout the first three weeks of this course, we have explored various components of creating positive learning environments. All these elements come to life when we can arrange and design our classroom layouts. By strategically considering the physical design of our classroom environments, we can ensure the space is not only inclusive and equitable but also that the schedules, transitions, and routines we design will be able to come to life.
In your Week 1 journal, you had the opportunity to explore various tools that could be used to design the layout of your learning environment. This week, you will build on that work by selecting a tool to use in creating your first draft of your classroom layout. You will share your layout with your peers in the Week 4 Designing the Classroom Environment discussion forum and create a final draft as a piece of your Week 5 Learning Environment Design Project final assignment.

Preschool Classroom
A 2/3-year-old classroom of 12 students. In the room you have one student Maria who comes from a home where Spanish is only spoken. Maria’s parents seem very interested in supporting her, but language is a barrier for them to communicate their needs to you. You also have one child Johnny who has cognitive and physical delays which require him to work with an aid most of the time when he is in your room. Johnny’s mom is very worried about him and would like to schedule regular meetings with you to review his goals and progress throughout the year. Then, you have a 3-year-old boy Michael who is living with a foster family after being moved around a bit. The family is overwhelmed trying to help him manage his behavior and he tends to lash out at other children often.

AIDET is introduced below and is something you can practice before your first patient interactions.
Tools for Effective Communication
AIDET is introduced below and is something you can practice before your first patient interactions. 
AIDET® is an acronym (Acknowledge, Introduce, Duration, Explanation, Thank you) that represents the components of an effective communication framework to leverage during interactions, especially with people who might be nervous, anxious, or vulnerable. Developed by Studer Group as the “Five Fundamentals of Patient Communication” in the mid-1990s and later registered by Studer Group as AIDET®, it is most often used by healthcare professionals to communicate with patients and their families, as well as with each other. Research studies confirm that this approach appears to improve communication between healthcare professionals and their patients. 
A – Acknowledge. Greet people using appropriate tone and body language and use their names if you know them.
I – Introduce. Introduce yourself to others. Tell them who you are (including skill set, experience, and qualifications, if appropriate) and how you are going to help them. Escort people where they need to go rather than pointing or giving directions. 
D – Duration. Provide a time estimate and identify the next steps. Keep in touch to ease waiting times. Let others know if there is a delay and how long it will be.
E – Explanation. Explain step-by-step what to expect next, answer questions, and let the other person know how to contact you. Assess comprehension using the teach-back method. Listen and respond with compassion if needed.
T – Thank you. Foster an attitude of gratitude. Thank people for their patronage, help, or assistance.
For additional reference see: The AIDET® Communication Framework
Customize effective communication for your patients.

It is important to remain a lifelong learner. Develop at least one SMART goal for each of the three categories: 
1 Year Goal; Complete Graduate Degree
2-3 Year Goal; Retire from the US Army 
5 Year Goal. Transition to a new career as a Teacher
For each goal, identify the action/strategy you will take to achieve the goal, why the goal is important to you personally and to your profession, a list of resources to help meet the goal, and how you will assess to make sure you have completed the goal.  

Step One: Locate an article in a professional nursing journal.

Locate the name of a recent (<5 years), professional, nursing journal related to the area of nursing you are interested in pursuing. Please refer to the Library and APA Resources to help guide you.  Find one scholarly, peer-reviewed article in that journal that interests you and read it; editorial and topical articles will not suffice.  Step Two: Write an APA reference. Use the article that you found to write a properly formatted APA reference; only the reference is needed, you do not need to write a summary for this assignment. Type the APA reference on a Word document.  Please include the appropriate heading for a 7th edition APA reference page Step Three: Submit TWO attachments to Canvas (See instructions here (Links to an external site.) for uploading more than one file to a submission) Attach the reference in Word format. Attach the article in a .pdf format. You will need to submit a copy of your article; this needs to be a .pdf file and not just a copy of the link. Please see the rubric for details on how to avoid deductions for this assignment.
