Option 3: John Doe, Patient One, is in late stage of kidney disease. If he does not receive a new kidney, then he is predicted to die within a week. Doe is 45, single, and has no children. Doctors theorize that Doe damaged his kidney by not following a low-salt diet. Doe inherited one million dollars and is known for giving money to charity. Without a transplant, he will probably be forced to spend all his money searching for a kidney outside of the usual legal channels. Patient Two is Jane Doe (no relation to John). Patient Two is a mother of two children (ages 21 and 24). She is divorced and 55 years old. She developed kidney problems due to eating a high-fat and high-sugar diet. If she does not receive a kidney within one month, doctors believe she will die. Patient Three is an orphan. This orphan lives in a state facility. She was born with a genetic condition that constantly damages her kidney. The only known approach to her condition is to provide her with a kidney transplant every so often. She is 11 and has already undergone two kidney transplants. She will perish in two months if she does not receive another transplant.
All three patients are at the same hospital. The hospital only has one kidney to give out. The orphan’s birth parents were known to be of a religion that is opposed to organ donation. The other patients come from religions that do not oppose organ donation. Who should get the kidney? Why should that candidate receive it over the others? Devise a course of social action and a solution for this case by using the ethics of egoism and then utilitarianism to a key moral conflict involving health care in this case. Appraise the interests of diverse populations (in terms of ethnicity, race, religion, sexual orientation, etc.) and how they relate to the case. Consider whether differing ethical beliefs globally might or not agree with what you say.
For all the options:
Cite the textbook and incorporate outside sources, including citations.
You should not be using any text you used in a discussion board or assignment for this class or any previous class.
Consider whether differing ethical beliefs globally might or not agree with what you say.
You will submit the following:
An audiovisual presentation that presents one of the options above. Be sure to give equal time to each element. Doing a PowerPoint presentation with audio recorded on the slides is preferred. Please refer to the Narrated PowerPoint Tutorial located in the Required Resources in this assignment.
Please provide a transcript of anything said in the recording aloud that does not appear as text on a slide. This transcript can be provided as a Word document or placed in the Notes section on the PowerPoint slides.
The link or a scan of the article mentioning any health technology, social technology, or case you are reporting on. If you made up the case, please indicate that in your report. If you choose to do option #3 (the case about a shortage of transplant kidneys), your article would likely be an article about the shortage of transplant organs, or a shortage of people signing up to be transplant donors, or the status of educating people about being donors, etc.

Using resources provided in this course, evidence from published research, and e

Using resources provided in this course, evidence from published research, and ethical principles, students will create an evidence based health care policy brief. The purpose of this brief is to allow students experience with creating a brief that can be given to a policy maker to change current laws or policies of organizations. It is not intended to be a hospital or clinic policy on “how we do this or that procedure”.
Rather, the goal is for students to look at the big picture of policy creation at the state or national level. For example, you may be interested in the limitation of psychotropic medications prescribed to elderly nursing home residents as chemical restraints. In this case, you would create a policy based on the physical and social dangers that these drugs pose to elderly persons and potential solutions to this problem such as mandatory documentation of failed behavioral modification techniques and an evaluation by a licensed psychiatric nurse practitioner or psychiatrist. You could include a requirement for oversight by an existing organization and suggest imposing stiff fines for facilities that do not meet the standards such as removal of Medicare funding. You would present this brief and the elevator speech to the policy maker as part of a visit with them in their district or Lobby Day for your organization in your state capitol or in DC.
This brief will be between one to two pages in length, have at least three peer-reviewed references, and will be composed in APA style. In addition to the brief, students will develop an “elevator speech” for use with policy-makers. This is a concise four or five sentence bullet point summation of the problem, the desired intervention, and the expected outcome of the proposed policy. The paper must follow the format posted on Canvas, and must be written according to APA style, including citation format and references. Please refer to the APA Manual (6th ed.) and/or the website: http://apastyle.apa.org/Links to an external site.
Students may use the topic from their ethical analysis paper or any of the discussion board case topics for this assignment. If none of these topics are of interest, the student may select another topic as long as it is a nursing problem and there is published research or systematic reviews on the topic. If you are in doubt about your topic, please email me so we can discuss by email, Zoom, or phone.
Example policy briefs are included in this module aimed at national level policies. These briefs are actually Policy Statements or Committee Opinions drafted by a former instructor. These are usually done as a team of two or more professionals. Your assignment is more of short paper but you can use bullet points in APA style so feel free to do that if you like. The Mental Health America policy is written in Yale style which is neither APA of AMA so if the references look unusual that why. The policies from ACNM are written in AMA style so they may look different to you than APA style. Many NP journals use AMA style but at USF, APA is standard. I cannot accept papers that have more than 3 APA, spelling, or grammatical errors. Direct quotes are not used in policy briefs.

For this forum, choose one of the following topics based upon this week’s assign

For this forum, choose one of the following topics based upon this week’s assigned readings to respond to for your initial post. Be sure to include pertinent citations from the course textbook were applicable to help you clearly communicate your ideas and help make your major points stick.
When responding to your peers please attempt to respond to at least one learner who has posted who has posted on the topic you did not select to encourage a healthy mixture of ideas.
Topic A: Virtue Ethics
In the Foundations of the Metaphysics of Morals, Kant (whom we will be reading more about this semester) writes that someone who is not inclined to help others, but who forces herself to, performs a morally praiseworthy action. While someone who regularly helps others and enjoys doing so, even if the enjoyment is not selfish, may deserve praise, but her action has no true moral worth. Do you agree with Kant? What reasons can you give for viewing moral acts that are performed merely out of habit as possessing less moral worth than those that require an immense personal effort?
We also saw in this week’s module, that according to Aristotle, for an act to be considered virtuous it must (1) be done for its own sake and (2) the act must follow from a firm disposition, meaning that it must be consistent with the way one usually acts and feels, and not be a one-shot incident. (Giles 30) Do you agree with Aristotle? What are the implications of these conditions on the perspicuity of moral acts, in contrast to Kant’s Deontological theory of right action? Does Aristotle’s Virtue Ethics entail the further possibility that one could live a morally virtuous life and yet not know it? If so, does this pose a problem for Virtue Ethics when viewed as a normative ethical theory? Why or why not?
Be sure to carefully defend your chosen position, citing pertinent sections of the readings for this week to help back up your view.
A minimum of three posts.
The initial forum response is due by Thursday at 11:55 p.m. EST and should be a substantive response to the discussion prompt.
For peer replies, respond to at least two of your classmates by Sunday at 11:55 p.m. EST and give meaningful replies that advance the discussion.
Before you post, please thoroughly edit your writing to ensure it is professional and academic, and includes properly cited MLA citations from our weekly course textbook readings. For more details about the initial post and peer replies are graded, see the attached grading rubric.
