Explain the implications of this problem for the stakeholders involved in this home health organization
In consideration of Sara’s privacy and in an effort to educate members of the organization of the possible outbreak, what strategies/steps should the Department of Human Resources (HR) do to ensure health information is provided to all stakeholders? Explain each strategy and offer concrete information to support your viewpoint.
Explain the implications of this problem for the stakeholders involved in this home health organization
Explain the implications of this problem for the stakeholders involved in this home health organization. Be sure to compare and contrast the implications for the different stakeholders and give special attention to the residents that Sara visited in their homes.
The assignment is based on this Scenario below:
Congratulations! You have been hired as Assistant Manager of a Home Health Care Agency. The agency offers a wide range of skilled medical services such as nursing care, physical therapy, occupational therapy from qualified medical professionals. The agency also provides home health aide services including assistance with activities of daily living, such as bathing and eating.
Your supervisor told you that she recently received a call from an advocate whom an employee consulted via the Employee Assistance Program because the employee felt that she had been treated unfairly after contracting an illness. She explained that a few months ago, one of your agency’s home health aides, Sara, became ill. Sara had been coughing for approximately six weeks, lost weight without trying, had no appetite, was having difficulty sleeping, and had an intermittent fever. She became concerned and went to see a healthcare professional who diagnosed her with active tuberculosis (TB).
Sara missed a lot of time from work while completing treatment for TB. Her physician cleared her to return to work after she was no longer contagious. Upon returning to work, Sara felt isolated because her boss and co-workers refused to spend time with her. She heard that someone from the agency’s Human Resources Department told her co-workers her diagnosis. The stressful circumstances at work became even worse when another home health aide started to display the same symptoms Sara had.
Your supervisor has asked you to review the entire situation and how it was handled by the agency. Each module includes information about epidemiology, health statistics, public health, health communication and advocacy, health literacy, healthcare delivery systems, the Affordable Care Act, ethical considerations, human resources management, legal aspects, cultural and global perspectives, and financial considerations for the organization.

Densely populated European countries imported the Peru-Island guano and the Chilean-salt petre for use as a natural source for nitrogen provision in the 1800’s. Depletion of these natural avenues crafted the necessity for nitrogen extraction from air, a challenge that was bestowed on scientists (Fullick & Fullick, 2001). Fritz Haber developed a mechanism that involved use of high pressure, catalysts and heat to synthesize ammonia. The German company BASF chemicals purchased the idea and tasked Carl Bosch with its up-scaling to fit factory production, a process Bosch saw through by 1913. The two scientists involved in the creation and development of the whole process were therefore Fritz Haber together with Carl Bosch; reasoning for its naming as the Haber-Bosch Process.
History of the Haber Process
The commercialized Haber process was not an Agricultural invention but was a necessity of war. It was implemented by Germany to meet the shortfalls encountered after the British and Allied forces stopped Nitrate imports from reaching Germany (Joesten, Hogg & Casteleon, 2007). Haber had discovered a means for ammonia synthesis through using high pressure and a heating temperature of about 600o Celsius. Catalysts’ addition was gradual and was done a drop at a time. However, Haber’s original idea could only generate a cup after a long period of waiting and could not be of benefit to the nation as it was (Fullick & Fullick, 2001). When the idea was bought by the BASF Chemicals, a third party, Carl Bosch, was engaged and commission by the company to improve the idea to achieve a commercial status. It took Carl Bosch nearly four years to develop the Haber idea whilst its blueprints were developed by Haber from 1905 to 1909. The process for obtaining the hydrogen used for the ammonia synthesis involved blowing steam over hot coke to separate oxygen from hydrogen. Nitrogen extraction, on the other hand, involved liquid air distillation then the subsequent cooling and compression of air (Smith, Richards & Newton, 2004). The process has been technologized and modernized in the current processes world over. The Haber process has helped achieve new realms in Agriculture through; increasing food production, helping in the balance of the Nitrogen Cycle (Fullick & Fullick, 2001). However, it has its repercussions as the process requires a lot of energies to realize and the fertilizer produced cause pollution during runoff. It also has a negative effect on soil together with the soil microbes.
The Mechanism of the Haber Process
The Haber Process is a combination of Nitrogen obtained from air and methane derived hydrogen to form ammonia. The reversible process is exothermic to imply that it produces a lot of heat. The process can be summed up in the equation:
The equilibrium should be shifted to the right to enable maximum proportions of ammonia in the mixture of the equilibrium. It is weighty to note that as the forward reaction consumes a lot of energy (endothermic), the backward is exothermic. The equilibrium shift is managed when temperatures are lowered to the range of 400-450 c However, low temperatures slow down reactions and there is little relevance in slow production for high proportions. The gases should be in equilibrium within that the short span of catalyst contacts The temperature stated above is one of compromise that can be used to produce large enough volumes of ammonia with high proportions.
Pressure
Increasing pressure results in reactions that favor a few molecules production. The resultant of that is a subsequent drop in pressure. To increase ammonia production, high pressures that are not less than 200 atmospheres should be engaged. High pressures push the molecules together and increase chances of the reaction with the catalysts (Smith, Richards & Newton, 2004). 200 atmospheres is an economical choice for achieving temperatures above that is costly and would beat the economies of scale.
Catalyst
The amount of catalyst only serves to increase the reaction rate of the equilibrium but has no impact on the ammonia production amount. However, the exclusion of the catalyst slows up the reaction significantly (Smith, Richards & Newton, 2004).
Ammonia Separation
Gases leave the reactor at extremely high temperatures and pressure. Ammonia temperatures are lowered to enable its liquefaction under high pressure. Hydrogen and Nitrogen maintain their gaseous states even at this pressure and are subject to recycling. Oxidation of Ammonia to Nitric Acid is conducted by its mixing with air at a ratio of one part to nine parts respectively.
Ammonia Uses
Ammonia aid in various industrial processes that include fertilizer production, chemical synthesis, production of pharmaceuticals, and in refrigeration. Other uses involve cleaning and softening of pulp and paper among others (Joesten, Hogg & Casteleon, 2007).
How Haber Process Affected the Imperial Germany
Germany had become the world’s leader in chemical technology in the immediate years preceding World War I, Germany. However, with limited resources of her own, Germany relied heavily on imports from other countries, the leading of whom was Chile from which they imported nitrates (Lesch & Conference, 2000). With the tension buildup prior to the world war, Germany felt threatened at the prospect of British Marines and submarines blocking their ships and felt the necessity for the creation of their nitrate. The costs for the long shipping distance were also escalating and were beating Germany’s economy of scale. Moreover, Germany’s large-scale importation was already depleting the resource at Chile as they had consumed a third of Chile’s produced nitrate in 1913 only. The factors put together inspired the commissioning for the development of a process through which the abundant atmospheric nitrogen could be extracted for commercial use. The creation of the Haber process lasted from 1905 to 1913; the time when it was officially commercialized (Lesch & Conference, 2000). Facing challenges on how to break the allied trench guard during World War I and how to effectively fire explosives at that close range without harming Nazi soldiers, the Imperial Germany developed a strategy. Haber suggested grouped trench mortars to shoot T-stoff bombs which could not be implemented because of resource scarcity. Haber’s following suggestion involved the use of chlorine gas that devastated the allied forces. However, the Imperial Germany did not just use the Haber process for weaponry only. It was also used for fertilizer production to facilitate agriculture to ensure security of food during the war. Importation could not serve as a remedy as the British controlled the oceans (Lesch & Conference, 2000). Haber Process gave Imperial Germany dominance during the world war, serving them with victories on many fronts.
Conclusion
The Haber Process is a chemical achievement that has made milestones in setting and changing history. It cut industrial overreliance on depletable resources and changed the whole warfare factor. The Haber process has also changed the global Agricultural sector and ensure food security. The invention has had its pros and cons

Discuss the critical thinking process involved in the diagnostic reasoning of SUD.
Introduction and Alignment
We are admonished in 1 Peter 5:8 to:
“Be sober [well balanced and self-disciplined], be alert and cautious at all times. That enemy of yours, the devil, prowls around like a roaring lion [fierce hungry], seeking someone to devour” (Amp).
Discuss the critical thinking process involved in the diagnostic reasoning of SUD.
This week’s topic is Substance Use Disorders (SUD). In a survey conducted by the NIH in 2013, 24.6 million people had used an illicit drug the preceding month. In a study by the Partnership for Drug-Free Kids in 2010, an estimated 23.5 million people were addicted to alcohol and drugs. The impact of SUD can have mild to severe consequences. Consider the financial cost of smoking one pack of cigarettes a day. Consider the severe consequences of a child being placed in foster care after a parent becomes addicted to alcohol, heroin or cocaine and can no longer provide physically, emotionally, spiritually or financially. What about the hours of work productivity that are lost due to SUD? What about the economic cost to society as we provide housing, medications, and treatment for those that suffer from substance use disorders and their families who because of SUD have lost all means of provision. The enemy of our souls seeks to destroy us as individuals, as families, as communities, and as a nation and uses SUD to help achieve his goal.
In the previous assignments, you have been introduced to the diagnostic reasoning process and elements of the history and physical exam that help you work through the diagnostic reasoning process. This assignment is an opportunity to begin to practice the diagnostic reasoning process as we examine Substance Use Disorders.
Upon successful completion of this assignment, you will be able to:
Discuss the critical thinking process involved in the diagnostic reasoning of SUD.
Identify SUD diagnoses and the history and mental status exam findings associated with them.
Select appropriate evidence-based practice (EBP) resources for use in the diagnostic process.
Identify the elements of history, physical exam, and mental status exam on which to base SUD diagnoses.
Demonstrate diagnostic reasoning in the development of differential SUD diagnoses based on client history, physical exam and mental health exam findings.
Differential diagnosis is a process used by health care providers to identify a correct diagnosis for a patient. A provider will create a list of possible diagnoses based on signs, symptoms, laboratory results and other diagnostic testing. In a systematic fashion, diagnoses are eliminated until the final diagnosis remains.
The process of narrowing down the list of diagnosis is accomplished by gathering subjective information that is relayed by the patient or objective information as gleaned from a physical exam, mental status exam and diagnostic testing. It is important to understand that the diagnosis process begins as a list of possibilities and ends as a single diagnosis.
While you are learning, it is very important to understand the diverse possibilities. While you should be open to the unusual diagnoses, remember common things occur commonly. However, if the less likely possibility has the potential to be life-threatening, it needs to be ruled out. Chest pain following a hard workout in a 20 year old is more than likely musculoskeletal, but you need some evidence to demonstrate that it is not cardiac before you rule it out.
Some patients will have every symptom described in the literature, some will have only have enough to meet the diagnosis definition. In psychiatric mental health and according to the DSM V, a certain combination of symptoms is necessary to make an accurate mental health diagnosis. Sorting this out is part of the reasoning process, and is included in the rationale for your differential.
Instructions
You will review an initial assessment of a substance abuse patient.

Do you have not only a legal, but a moral right to own a gun? Do you believe that you have either a moral or a legal right to park a car with a loaded gun in a privately owned parking lot, regardless of what the lot’s owner wants? In your view, do employees have either a moral or a legal right to park cars with guns in them in the company parking lot? What do you believe should be the property rights and safety concerns of employers? Do you think state legislatures are right to get involved, or should the matter be left to companies and employees to settle? Because the workplace is the company’s private property, the company could choose to allow employees to bring guns not only into the parking lot, but also into the workplace itself. Are there ever circumstances in which doing so might be reasonable? Or would the presence of guns automatically violate the rights of other employees to be guaranteed a safe working environment?
