Chain of Infection. Chain of Infection.
Subscribe
In this week’s lecture we discussed the chain of infection. As nurses, you all will see many different patients that have contracted different infectious diseases in different ways. For this week’s discussion I want you to create a scenario where someone has contracted a disease and I want you to name the different parts of the chain of infection that happened in your scenario.
For example, let’s say Suzie Smith came in with the flu. So the name of the pathogen is the influenza virus (there are multiple strains of the flu but I am just speaking in general terms here). Typically we do not know the exact reservoir as it could have been many things. But for the purpose of telling we will say Suzie sat next to a boy at school that had the flu. Therefore, the boy and everything he touched was the reservoir. The portal of exit would be through the boys coughing or sneezing. The mode of transmission would be if Suzie shook the boys hand or touched something behind him. If Suzie soon wiped her nose or mouth, that is the portal of entry. This now makes Suzie the susceptible host. So this is a short scenario but I want you all to come up with something similar. Remember that some diseases are spread in different ways.
As usual, the more info, the better. Please feel free to research some information online about these diseases but please remember to then put your research into your own words.

Is there a difference between being a lobbyist and an advocate?
Chain of Infection ” any-topic-writers-choice-260/”>Nursing Assignment Help This week’s readings and lecture offered information related to lobbyists and advocates. Is there a difference between being a lobbyist and an advocate? Lobbyists provide support for policy, as do advocates, so what is the difference? Most nurses consider themselves patient advocates; however a political advocate is somewhat different. In this discussion, differentiate between a lobbyist and an advocate. Be sure to discuss a political advocate rather than a bedside advocate.
Topics to include:
Definition of a lobbyist.
Definition of an advocate.
Similarities and differences.
Why are they both important?
How does one of your selected organizations (choose one you used in your week 1 DB – What is the definition of Nursing Excellence – these organizations were discussed in the week 1 PowerPoint) lobby or advocate for health care policy?
Your initial post must be posted before you can view and respond to colleagues, must contain minimum of two (2) references, in addition to examples from your personal experiences to augment the topic. The goal is to make your post interesting and engaging so others will want to read/respond to it. Synthesize and summarize from your resources in order to avoid the use of direct quotes, which can often be dry and boring. No direct quotes are allowed in the discussion board posts.
Post a thoughtful response to at least two (2) other colleagues’ initial postings. Responses to colleagues should be supportive and helpful (examples of an acceptable comment are: “This is interesting – in my practice, we treated or resolved (diagnosis or issue) with (x, y, z meds, theory, management principle) and according to the literature…” and add supportive reference. Avoid comments such as “I agree” or “good comment.”

Do not panic! There are several chapters to read; however, they are brief. Mason, Gardner, Hopkins Outlaw and O’Grady provide succinct explanations and specific examples of health care policy in action. The beginning chapters discuss the philosophy of politics, the readings then continue with media influences, disparities, the importance of EBP, and more. I think this week will be informative and thought provoking. This week I do strongly suggest that you at least skim the supplemental readings.
