The age selected for this analysis of child abuse are toddlers, children aged between 0 and three years. They face the highest cases of child abuse mainly due to many of their caregivers not knowing how to talk care of them (Cook et al., 2017). At this age, the most common type of abuse they face is neglect as the parents don’t provide the proper food and nutritional affection they require. Moreover, the neglect extends to medical and other necessities that are vital for their proper development. Some of the most common signs that nurses should not are the child’s constant unrest, nutritional deficiency and parent’s lack of interest on the child’s overall health (Cook et al., 2017). A common condition that is seen in toddlers is the shaken baby syndrome a form of abusive head trauma caused by forceful shaking of the infant or toddler. With the recent rise in immigrants from Asia a common Southeast Asia, a cultural practice that has been misinterpreted by the medical community is “Cao gio” (Tanner, Catanese, Lew, & Rapkiewicz, 2016). It is a dermabrasion therapy technique that is used for various conditions such as relief of pain and nausea. In the majority of the states within the U.S. inclusive of this state, the reporting mechanisms involve the first the separation of the child from the caregiver (Tanner, Catanese, Lew, & Rapkiewicz, 2016). This is simultaneously followed with the notifications of the authorities that include the police as well as Child Protective Services. The process has to be swift to ensure maximum attention is given to the child, moreover, by contacting the police the abusers will be apprehended. Finally, the Child Protective Services will provide necessary protection to the child as well as a new home. This procedure has been proven effective in many occasions and is yet to be challenged.

I NEED A POSITIVE COMMENT BASED IN THIS ARGUMENT..BETWEEN 100-120 WORDS

There was a cross-sectional study conducted in 2013, with the use of data from 21 University Health System Consortium hospitals,that analyzed the association between RN education and patient outcomes. The results from this study showed that Hospitals with a higher percentage of RNs with baccalaureate or higher degrees had lower congestiveheart failure mortality, decubitus ulcers, failureto rescue, and postoperative deep vein thrombosis or pulmonary embolism and shorter length of stay. This particular article stated that how studies dating back to 2002, linked the percentage of RNs in a hospital with baccalaureate degrees to decreased patient mortality (in-hospital and 30-day mortality, failure to rescue) However, other studies have not found significant relationships between mortality and nursing education. It further mentinoed how the few studies that examined the impact of baccalaureate education on other patient outcomes, particularly those that are considered sensitive to nursing care, did not find beneficial effects. This study also mentioned how the ducation of RNs did not affect hospital-acquired infections once other characteristics were controlled, whereas nurse staffing levels did (Blegen, Goode, et al, 2013).

Looking back on real life experiences, one thing I have observed is that some of the BSN prepared nurses that I have worked with were more skilled at critical thinking that the ADNs which now I can see why after being in this program which requires much more research. The BSN prepared Nurses are more detailed oriented in assessments and charting as well.

A loss ratio is simply the difference between the ratio of claims paid by an insurance carrier and the ratio of premiums paid. The board of directors depends on the ability to forecast loss ratios, which in turn enables them to forecast profitability metrics to the shareholders. The organization will now consider implementing the use of statistics for measuring risks.

Your deliverable should be composed in a report. Be sure to address the following items:

• Explain how statistics is used to formally define risk in the risk assessment process.
• Discuss at least two statistical tools that can be employed to measure risk.
• Convey which tool best serves the company’s purposes and explain why it is.
• What are the ramifications of the organization electing not to use statistics in this process?
• Include:

1.An accurate overview that includes specific examples of how statistics support the risk assessment process is given.

2.At least two valid statistical tools that can be employed to measure risk are discussed with details on specific applications.

Vaccine Controversies

There is no doubt that the topic of vaccine has received numerous fears because of its below 100% effectiveness, among other reasons. On the other hand, the campaign for vaccine has been strongly recommended because of the lives saved through it and the diseases it has prevented such as polio and small pox. In this discussion, I will attempt to look at the two perspectives with a view of shading light to what is the most important, severe and useful to mankind regarding vaccine controversies in the world today.

Since vaccine was introduced, there have been rivalry by religion on unfounded facts. Owing in mind many unvaccinated children have passed away, religions remain firm with their Simon says hence nations give in to their negative ideas. On the question of safety versus sanity, the cell has some viral vaccines which has to be gotten from humans. Rubella vaccine is derived from tissues taken therapeutic abortions performed in 1960s.

In Kerala a magazine had an article of certain minor post-vaccine adverse events causing death. A boycott of vaccine was called and vaccines called “agents of death”. The respond to that was predictable as there was a heated debate on television channels. Later the article was removed since there was opposition lead by Indian Medical Association but by then many had already accepted the vaccines should be eradicated. Before this, in Malappuram district of India, religion groups said that vaccines was targeted to demolish a certain religion. As a result 100% of children in that district have been vaccinated but only 74% are fully protected. A campaign is needed being led by IMA (Indian Medical Association) to stop the spread of myths against vaccines (Vasudevan, 2016). 

In conclusion, vaccines save lives but the need to draw a line between what is right or acceptable and what are wrong calls for a lot of compromise from all parties. The examples above show that more research also need to be undertaken to find better ways to cope with allergies from vaccines so as to improve on survival rate after vaccination.

Cultures, regardless of where they are or how long ago they existed, share a few common characteristics. Among these characteristics is a structure to care for their children and to socialize them in the culture. Children are taught, both directly and indirectly, the values of the culture, their role in the culture, and the expectations the culture has for them. Children absorb the rules, dynamics, and values, which they will later pass these on to subsequent generations.

As a social worker, you will deal with families from different cultural backgrounds. Understanding the cultural background of the families you work with will help you to effectively intervene and advocate for policies that support their needs. How prepared are you to identify and advocate for social policies that are just and support families from all cultures?

For this Discussion, review this week’s resources, including the Hernandez Family video case. Consider how cultural considerations might affect child welfare policy. Then, think about what your responsibilities, as a social worker, might be in supporting the Hernandez family in addressing their child welfare needs through the accessibility of services.

 Hernandez Family Episode 3 Program Transcript 

JUAN HERNANDEZ: Do you have any idea how hard it is for us to get to these classes? ELENA HERNANDEZ: And there’s only one class a week. We don’t have a choice when to come. FEMALE SPEAKER: That is why we offer the parenting class at night, to make it easier for working families to attend. ELENA HERNANDEZ: That’s fine for some people, but that’s when Juan gets his overtime. He can’t do both. Every time we come here it costs us. We lose money. And the way things are, we can’t afford to lose a dime. FEMALE SPEAKER: I understand that missing overtime is having a big impact on you financially. And I understand what you’re saying about the class only being offered one night a week. If we could offer it several times a week, that would probably be more helpful. But in the meantime– JUAN HERNANDEZ: Look, let’s stop dancing around what’s really wrong here. We appreciate what you’re doing. You want to help parents do a better job with their kids. But we’re good parents. We love our kids. Yes, they get punished when they need to be punished, just Elena and I when we were growing up. But we don’t hit our boys. We don’t hurt them. If anything, you hurt them by making us come here when I could be out there making extra money, money that the family needs. Do you hear me? This class this, whole policy is the real problem. That’s what needs to change, not us.  

By Day 3

Post an explanation of how cultural considerations might affect child welfare policy. Then, explain what your responsibilities, as a social worker, might be in supporting the Hernandez family in addressing their child welfare needs through the accessibility of services.
