Having the available funding to support one’s campaign as a necessary resource in running for office. Interestingly — in doing some research, the ANA (American Nurses Association) has a PAC as do many individual state nursing organizations. In 2022, the ANA-PAC raised $239,000 for political contributions and donated $128, 500 (53.77%) to democratic candidates and $110,500 (46.23%) to Republican candidates. In this light, it seems that the ANA is very involved in the political process in terms of supporting RNs running for office.I welcome your thought?
How might healthcare policy advocacy change if nurses are seated at the table? 

Read two different articles from the MMWR (https://www.cdc.gov/mmwr/index.html) developed by the CDC. Complete a SOCO worksheet for each of the articles you read.
Once you are done with the above activity, answer the following questions:
Was it easy to determine the SOCO for the articles you read? Give reasons to substantiate your answer.
What could the authors have done to more easily convey their message?

Build a slide presentation (PowerPoint preferred) of the hypothetical health promotion plan you developed in the first essay of: 
Diabetes: A group of diseases that result in high blood sugar.
o Potential Health Impacts: Can lead to complications like heart disease, stroke,
kidney disease, eye problems, and nerve damage.
Then, implement your health promotion plan by conducting a hypothetical face-to-face educational session addressing the health concern and health goals of your selected group. How would you set goals for the session, evaluate session outcomes, and suggest possible revisions to improve future sessions?
This assessment provides an opportunity for you to apply teaching and learning concepts to the presentation of a health promotion plan.
You will resume the role of a community nurse tasked with addressing the specific health concern in your community. This time, you will present, via educational outreach, the hypothetical health promotion plan you developed in the first essay to your fictitious audience. In this hypothetical scenario, you will simulate the presentation as though it would be live and face-to-face. You must determine an effective teaching strategy, communicate the plan with professionalism and cultural sensitivity, evaluate the objectives of the plan, revise the plan as applicable, and propose improvement for future educational sessions. To engage your audience, you will develop a PowerPoint presentation with speaker notes to communicate your plan.
Complete the following:
Prepare a 9–12 slide PowerPoint presentation with a voice-over and detailed speaker notes that reflects your hypothetical presentation. This presentation is the implementation of the plan you created in Assessment 1. The speaker notes should be well organized. Be sure to include the speaker notes 
Simulate the hypothetical face-to-face educational session addressing the health concern and health goals of your selected community individual or group.
Imagine collaborating with the hypothetical participant(s) in setting goals for the session, evaluating session outcomes, and suggesting possible revisions to improve future sessions.

Develop a disaster recovery plan to reduce health disparities and improve access to community services after a disaster. Then develop and record a 10–12 slide presentation (please refer to the PowerPoint tutorial) of the plan with audio and speaker notes for the local system, city officials, and the disaster relief team.
When disaster strikes, community members must be protected. A comprehensive recovery plan, guided by the MAP-IT (Mobilize, Assess, Plan, Implement, Track) framework, is essential to help ensure everyone’s safety. The unique needs of residents must be assessed to reduce health disparities and improve access to equitable services after a disaster. Recovery efforts depend on the appropriateness of the plan, the extent to which key stakeholders have been prepared, the quality of the trace-mapping, and the allocation of available resources. In a time of cost containment, when personnel and resources may be limited, the needs of residents must be weighed carefully against available resources.
In this assessment, you will assume the role of the senior nurse at a regional hospital who has been assigned to develop a disaster recovery plan for the community using MAP-IT and trace-mapping, which you will present to city officials and the disaster relief team.
Review the full scenario and associated data in the Assessment 03 Supplement: Disaster Recover Plan [PDF] Download Assessment 03 Supplement: Disaster Recover Plan [PDF]resource.
You are also encouraged to complete the Disaster Preparedness and Management activity. The information gained from completing this activity will help you succeed with the assessment as you think through key issues in disaster preparedness and management in the community or workplace. Completing activities is also a way to demonstrate engagement.
Begin thinking about:
Community needs.
Resources, personnel, budget, and community makeup.
People accountable for implementation of the disaster recovery plan.
Healthy People 2020 goals and 2030 objectives.
A timeline for the recovery effort.
You may also wish to:
Review the MAP-IT (Mobilize, Assess, Plan, Implement, Track) framework, which you will use to guide the development of your plan:Mobilize collaborative partners.
Assess community needs.
Plan to lessen health disparities and improve access to services.
Implement a plan to reach Healthy People 2020 goals or 2030 objectives.
Track community progress.
Review the assessment instructions and scoring guide to ensure that you understand the work you will be asked to complete.
Note: Every 10 years, The U.S. Department of Health and Human Services and the Office of Disease Prevention and Health Promotion release information on health indicators, public health issues, and current trends. At the end of 2020, Healthy People 2030 was released to provide information for the next 10 years. Healthy People 2030 provides the most updated content when it comes to prioritizing public health issues; however, there are historical contents that offer a better understanding of some topics. Disaster preparedness is addressed in Healthy People 2030, but a more robust understanding of MAP-IT, triage, and recovery efforts is found in Healthy People 2020. For this reason, you will find references to both Healthy People 2020 and Healthy People 2030 in this course.
First, review the full scenario and associated data in the Assessment 03 Supplement: Disaster Recover Plan [PDF] Download Assessment 03 Supplement: Disaster Recover Plan [PDF]resource.

Understanding evidence-based care of the client with sepsis and septic shock is of the utmost importance for a nurse. As you have learned in this module, caring for a patient in septic shock is a medical emergency, and requires prompt intervention and the implementation of the evidence-based Sepsis 1-Hour Bundle.
Based on what you have learned in this module, and through the assigned readings, write an initial discussion post that addresses the following:
· Identify two (2) causes of sepsis in the hospitalized patient.
· What physiological changes would the nurse notice when assessing a patient in septic shock?
· Discuss three (3) priority interventions that the nurse would expect the physician to order for a patient newly diagnosed with septic shock.
