CASE STUDY: Active Labor: Susan Wong Mrs. Wong, a first-time mother, is admitted to the birthing suite in early labor after spontaneous rupture of membranes at home. She is at 38 weeks of gestation with a history of abnormal alpha-fetoprotein levels at 16 weeks of pregnancy. She was scheduled for ultrasonography to visualize the fetus to rule out an open spinal defect or Down syndrome, but never followed through. Mrs. Wong and her husband disagreed about what to do (keep or terminate the pregnancy) if the ultrasonography indicated a spinal problem, so they felt they did not want this information.

Reflective Questions

1. As the nurse, what priority data would you collect from this couple to help define relevant interventions to meet their needs?

2. How can you help this couple if they experience a negative outcome in the birthing suite? What are your personal views on terminating or continuing a pregnancy with a risk of a potential anomaly? What factors may influence your views?

3. With the influence of the recent Human Genome Project and the possibility of predicting open spinal defects earlier in pregnancy, how will maternity care change in the future?

Overview

Excellent work! Now that you have successfully conducted a mini ethnographic analysis of the population, you will focus on other related health challenges. Even though the primary health challenge for your chosen humanitarian aid trip will be the focus of your interventions, there are other real and potential health challenges the population or the team will encounter. If you want to be successful on this trip, you need to know about these other health challenges and how they interact with the primary health challenge.

By investigating the scholarly literature, you will answer the questions: What is known about the other health challenges among the population within the area of focus for the humanitarian aid trip? What should the team prepare to encounter?

Prompt

Building on the prior project preparation assignments, examine the details related to the other health challenges faced by the population, as well as those your team may meet, during the humanitarian aid trip. Craft a short paper to further your analysis of the nature of the other health challenges. Search the scholarly literature to support your analysis for at least three different health challenges for your chosen location. Your responses should be concise.

Note that you should cite at least three scholarly sources from your investigation. The evidence should not be older than five years. To access the Shapiro Library Guide: Nursing—Graduate, go to the Start Here section of the course.

You must identify three other health challenges and address all the following specified criteria for each of these other health challenges:

Module Five Project Preparation Rubric

From the perspective of an LTC provider, what actions could be implemented to help lower the overall industry claims losses for the LTC insurers in order to preserve the availability of LTC policies to the provider’s residents.

(2)  From the perspective of an LTC provider, what actions could be implemented to help lower the overall industry claims losses for the LTC insurers in order to preserve the availability of LTC policies to the provider’s residents.  Consider that with viable LTC insurance, more consumers can afford expensive LTC services such as assisted living or luxury memory care or nursing facilities.  Consider further that with more consumers insured with LTC, the LTC providers have a more certain source of timely payment than if relying on the individual.  Thus, financial solvency of LTC facilities and financial solvency of LTC insurers may be closely related.
