Assignment 1: A Legal and Ethical Dilemma

Deciding to place a loved one into a long-term care facility can be extremely difficult. Even more difficult is the thought of your loved one’s rights being violated while in long-term care. Patient healthcare rights are not as clearly defined as one would expect, and there are long-term care and other healthcare facilities that create their own sets of patient rights. However, there are also certain indisputable rights afforded to patients across the board.

Read the case study titled “A Legal and Ethical Dilemma”, located on pages 463-465 of your text. Next, use the Internet or research information on a patient’s right to die.

Next, take a position on whether the patient’s right to die or      the patient’s right to be protected from harm should take precedence in      this case. Provide a rationale for your position.
  3. Imagine that you      are a part of the ethics committee investigating this case. Determine the      main facts pertaining to the issue that the committee should consider.      Suggest one (1) step that the facility should take next in order to      resolve the dilemma. Provide a rationale for your response.

Assignment 2: Human Resources and Staffing Crisis at Blumberg’s Nursing Home

Blumberg’s Nursing Home (BNH) is a 100-bed Medicare and Medicaid certified facility in suburban Philadelphia, PA. The administrator recently terminated the facility’s Director of Nursing (DON), receptionist, and dietary aid for inappropriate conduct. They had all been involved in purchasing and using illegal substances on facility grounds. Facility staff, as well as many of the more lucid residents, have found out about the incident.

The charge nurse has been appointed interim DON. The human resource manager has sent a memo to all staff informing them of a mandatory staff meeting to discuss BNH’s code of ethics and to provide additional training on workplace culture. Because federal law requires that there be at least one (1) registered nurse on duty for a minimum of eight (8) hours a day, seven (7) days a week, and that the DON must be a registered nurse (RN) – which the interim DON is not – BNH is out of compliance.

Write a four to six (4-6) page paper in which you:

  1. Assess the      immediate staffing needs at BNH. Prioritize the order in which BNH should      fill the main unstaffed position(s). Justify your selection(s).
  2. Considering the      reason behind the termination of the employees, formulate a human      resources policy that addresses inappropriate conduct in the workplace,      the process of reporting inappropriate conduct, and the consequences of      violating the policy. Explain your rationale. 
  3. Per the text, an      effective long-term care facility administrator must have both leadership      and management skills. Propose at least one (1) way the administrator in this      case must demonstrate quality leadership skills, and one (1) way the      administrator must demonstrate quality management skills in the aftermath      of this crisis so as to improve and maintain staff and resident morale.
  4. Recommend a      strategy for BNH to use the Quality Indicator Survey to improve      administrative practices and ensure future compliance at the facility.      Justify your recommendation.

5. Use at least three (3) quality academic resources. Note: Wikipedia and other similar websites do not qualify as academic resources. 

Your assignment must follow these formatting requirements:

  • Be typed, double      spaced, using Times New Roman font (size 12), with one-inch margins on all      sides; citations and references must follow APA or school-specific format.      Check with your professor for any additional instructions.
  • Include a cover      page containing the title of the assignment, the student’s name, the      professor’s name, the course title, and the date. The cover page and the      reference page are not included in the required assignment page length. 

The specific course learning outcomes associated with this assignment are:

· Differentiate the administrative functions of long-term care practices from those of other healthcare administrative services. 

· Identify the factors that have led to the current realities of long-term care in the United States.
