when it comes to fixing the problem on the nursing shortage from a finical point of view would be to allow people to become registered nurses through on the job training and passing a test which is just a check off list on what the specific nurse should know in the range of scope. This would eliminate the spending of money on more scholarships and acts to push for more nurses. On the economic side of things this would better the country on the shortage problem and the budget problem. Shortages would decrease for the easier route on becoming a registered nurse and less money would be spent from the country budget in education. This means that money can be put somewhere else to help the country that is in a lot of debt already. This would keep the nursing shortage problem in line and would be best for efficiency plus the economy of the country.

The nursing shortage is still an on-going issue. I work in the nursing office and see this issue first-hand. It is frustrating on both ends where the nurses are being over-worked to compensate lack of staffing and frustrating on my end when nurses call off because I know we are going to be short. Our hospital offers bonuses for those who pick-up extra shifts to help with the shortage. Also, we offer “commitment” bonuses of renewing your contract with a certain floor of the hospital every year. This gives them incentive to stay. We have sign-on bonuses for new nurses to attract them to join our hospital.

Some ways we can help keep the supply of nurses efficient is to promote a good work environment through effective leadership.  A survey from 2013 found that 35 percent of respondents said they “often feel like resigning” while another 33 percent said if they had a choice, they “would not be working in their current job a year from now. (“The Sentinel Watch”, 2016). Over half of the group said that working as a nurse adversely affected their health. We can try to promote safe movement practice to avoid injuries such as how to lift properly or to have someone help you. Another issue is lack of nursing school slots because lack of teachers. We could offer a pay increase to those who teach nurses and create incentives for teachers to become employed. This would allow more slots for nursing students.

Best,

Kait

The Unit III Course Project is a continuation of the assignment that began in Unit II. The first portion of the course project involved a life cycle analysis (LCA). This second portion is a pollution prevention (P2) audit. The third portion, which will be due in Unit V, will focus on corporate philosophy related to P2. 

P2 Audit

The Unit III Course Project requirement is to use the same product you chose in Unit II to explain the aspects of a P2 audit. In addition to summarizing the three phases of the audit (planning, assessment, and analysis), ensure you have covered any steps you would take specific to the product you have researched. You must utilize information in the course textbook and at least one peer-reviewed article from the CSU Online Library. In your paper, limit the amount of direct quotations. The vast majority of your paper should contain paraphrased information from your sources and should include your own thoughts on the P2 audit.Since the course project is cumulative, please include the LCA from your Unit II submission in a section titled “Life Cycle Assessment,“ which should have an APA Level 1 heading (centered, bold). The LCA section should be followed by the new section titled “Pollution Prevention Audit,” which should also be formatted as an APA Level 1 heading.This portion of your project should be at least two pages in length, which is in addition to the two-page LCA submitted in Unit II. Please make changes in your LCA section per your professor’s Unit II feedback. A title page and references page must be included; however, these pages will not count toward meeting the minimum page requirement. Adhere to APA Style when constructing this assignment, including in-text citations and references for all sources that are used. Please note that no abstract is needed.

Essay 3: Inquiry into a Subject—The Discovery Essay

The motive for writing a research essay…is not to prove but to discover.

—Bruce Ballenger

What’s the assignment?

As its name implies, the Discovery Essay gives you the chance to find out something you really want to know or need to understand better. To so doing, you’ll be engaging in the process of discovery that motivates virtually all academic work. Key to the process is asking a real question—one with some complexity, that does not have an easy or obvious answer—and then exploring a wide range of current, reliable, authoritative sources that represent a variety of perspectives. Good research questions rarely have a single answer—there may be multiple answers, conflicting answers, or no answer (yet). The best kind of research takes you somewhere you didn’t expect, leads you to question your assumptions, or provides new insight into a subject you thought you knew well.

What’s THE PROCESS? 

After doing some brainstorming in class and forming a research question, you’ll create a bibliography of possible sources. You’ll then evaluate these sources, choosing at least five that help you answer your research question by providing a variety of perspectives on the subject. (You’re not discovering much if all your sources say the same thing.) Read—and reread—your sources carefully, taking notes that record both what the authors are saying and what you think about what they are saying (you’ll use a dual-entry journal, which we’ll discuss).

In writing your Discovery Essay, you’ll turn your attention from researching your subject to describing your findings for an audience.  More specifically, you’ll 1) describe your interest in the subject; 2) present a synthesis of what others have to say about the subject and 3 ) reflect on the significance of what you’ve discovered. An important objective of the assignment is to give you practice using academic sources to explain a complex subject (and citing them properly) while also including your thoughts and voice in the piece. You’re won’t just be summarizing what others have said—you’ll be showing readers what your sources say and explaining why it is interesting or important to discovering the answer to your research question.

As part of this assignment, you will prepare a brief micro-presentation – 4 to 5 minutes, 3 PP slides/Prezi graphics – to explain your project and main findings. 

THIS IS NOT…

…an argument essay. It is NOT intended to take a side or attempt to persuade the reader. Your discovery will be the information you find that helps answer the question(s) about the thing you really want to know. You will find a variety of ideas and viewpoints regarding what you’re trying to learn, and then present them without bias.

FINALLY…

… feel free to use images, hyperlinks, or graphs in this piece if they help you explain your subject. Just be sure to cite them properly.

Organizational change initiatives are a team effort. It is the job of the leadership team to ensure that transition is a success. To do so, the right leaders must be put in place, and each must hold a thorough understanding of their roles and responsibilities.

Examine the Delta Pacific Case Study

, then analyze the following:

· What are the challenges facing Delta Pacific?

· What change initiative would be most effective to implement within this organization? 

· What type of change leaders need to be put in place? (Ex.: Change Lead, Change Managers, Change Analyst, etc.)

· What departments, areas, and stakeholders will each leader be responsible for?

· Where will each change leader be most effective?

· What roles will each change leader need to play at their level of influence?

Leadership Structure Plan

Utilizing the above information, create a Leadership Structure Plan that includes the following:

· At least three change leader positions to be put in place for the change initiative.

· Description of each change leader’s roles and responsibilities.

· Account of departments they will lead.

· A short description of how each position will effectively aid in the success of the initiative.

Note: When creating your plan, think in terms of a job description and job analysis, and the detail used to specifically identify the roles and responsibilities of each particular job assignment. Â While this particular project does not have a page requirement, keep in mind that a thorough plan should be no less than 3 pages in length. Use headers for each category. 

The paper should include an APA formatted cover page and reference page.
