I need an explanation for this Philosophy question to help me study.

Initial Post: A 60-year-old homeless man, “Jesse”, is found confused and in distress by a passerby who calls 911. Paramedics bring the man to the hospital. Jesse’s feet and legs are swollen and covered in ulcers and dead tissue—diagnosed as osteomyelitis, or infection of his legs. His past medical history is established to include chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), chronic foot infections, alcoholism, and tobacco use. In addition to this, clinicians find a mass in Jesse’s lung that could either be TB or cancer. Physicians recommend a biopsy. The infections in this patient’s legs are so severe that a double amputation is also recommended.Jesse says “No!” to amputation, but reluctantly agrees to a biopsy of the lung mass. Jesse had been able to identify his location in a hospital but not why, or what could happen as a result of not going along with medical recommendations for treatment. He had stated to the clinical team that he just wants to leave the hospital and die. But does he? Maybe. In a previous hospital admission, the chart indicates that Jesse had refused surgery as treatment for recurring infection in his legs, and physicians believed he had done so with decisional capacity.Jesse’s support system initially seems to consist only of a couple recent acquaintances at the homeless shelter (who don’t have telephones and cannot be reached) and a dog that Jesse says is his best friend. A hospital social worker searches for any next of kin, someone who knows Jesse and might be willing and able to make decisions as a surrogate. Social work eventually finds an out-of-town brother and an estranged sister. Neither have seen their brother in many years, and anyway are unwilling to make decisions on his behalf. The attending physician wonders aloud what should be done for Jesse now, and who can decide? An ethics consultation is requested.1. Does Jesse have decision making capacity?2. How might strong or weak paternalism apply?3. If Jesse had a living will, would it help in this case? Why or why not?4. What moral methodology helps you respond to this case and what recommendations would you provide?

Input all the due dates into a planner. Then break down your daily activities, giving yourself two tasks to complete during each study session. Work ahead whenever you can.
—Brianna C., Environmental Management major 
Whether you’re a first-time university student or returning to school after taking a break, it is important to set aside time to study and engage in your learning. And with the flexibility and autonomy that comes with being an online student, it is critical to schedule time to regularly access the virtual classroom, interact with your peers and instructor, study the course materials, and stay on top of the due dates for discussions, projects, and assignments. 
As an online university student, you’ll encounter and receive advice on a variety of tools and tactics to help you succeed as a learner in the online classroom. For this activity, we’ll focus on three effective tactics to support learning: time management strategies, schedules, and note taking. First, you’ll read about ways to manage your time, ideas for creating a schedule, time management do’s and don’ts, and note taking methods. Once you’ve finished the readings, you will devise a schedule. 
The tasks for completing this activity are as follows:
Read Online Study Skills and Time Management.
Read Developing Your Study Skills.

Download and complete the calendar template

Using your syllabus for PACE 111 and any other class you are enrolled in this semester, create a schedule for the next four weeks.   

When you’re creating your schedule, remember to incorporate time for reading, coursework, and assignments as outlined in your syllabus. Also factor in time for dealing with daily life occurrencessuch as work, cleaning, childcare, and so on. Take the time to include details so that you don’t forget any of your tasks.

You’ll also want to list two or three concrete steps you can take to incorporate school more fully into your schedule. Try to get support from your partner, children, friends, your community, or professional services to take on some of your obligations outside of school, such as cooking or watching the kids. That way you will have more time in your schedule to devote to your studies.

Essay length: 5 pages Format: MLA (for guidelines, please visit OWL Purdu. In this short essay I would like you to explore ONE central topic in the readings we’ve done so far. This topic needs to be derived from research and secondary academic sources. I strongly recommend that you use Jstor.org, which is accessible through your institution, i.e. the College of Staten Island. You can watch a tutorial on how to use Jstor with the following link: https://guides.jstor.org/c.php?g=470313&p=8293050 For this essay I will ask that you find TWO secondary sources that you will connect to one of the two books we read so far: Aimé Césaire’s Notebooks of a Return to the Native Land, and Ama Ata Aidoo’s Our Sister Killjoy. The first step is to think of a topic and there are several ways you can do this. One of them is to go back to your weekly responses and see which one might make a good essay. Once you have an idea of what you want to write on, you can start doing keyword searches on Jstor and see what secondary source might be useful. Another way to do this is to start on Jstor and to explore what has been written on either book. You can gather several essays, download them as PDFs and read through the ones that seem most interesting. This is a short essay, so I’m asking you to be specific and structured in your writing. What I want to see is an analysis that makes use of secondary sources that you then connect to the primary source and where you quote all three documents. A good way to do this is to follow this format: -Introduction of the topic, of the book, and of the two secondary sources-Brief overview of both secondary sources in one or two paragraph-Connection between the essays and chosen passages of the book you are writing about. This is where your analysis comes in, i.e. how are you applying the concepts of the essays to specific passages of the book. The more passages you have, the more you have to write about. Each paragraph should include at least one quote-Conclusion on what you have discovered along the way. I don’t want a repetition of what you did, but a synthesis of the essay’s purpose and what the reader is supposed to gain from it-Works Cited page, in MLA format.

After being discharged from the hospital/transitional care unit they may continue to have physical therapy, occupational therapy, and speech therapy in a home care setting (Workman, M.L.,2021). For someone who has a mild case they can recover at home with discharge plans such as taking acetaminophen for headaches as needed, avoid sedatives, sleeping pills, or drinking alcoholic beverages with 24 hours of discharge, do not participate in strenuous activities for 48 hours, watch for ambulation safety and gait disturbances. Immediately bring the patient back to the ER is they exhibit any symptoms such as seizures, severe or worsening headache, persistent or severe nausea and vomiting’s, clear drainage from the ear or nose, blurred vision, increasing weakness, slurred speech, progressive sleepiness, or unequal pupil size. All of these could be signs of a more severe TBI and complication such as the leakage of cerebral spinal fluid from the brain and requires immediate attention.

You could use them or not, depending on your own choice, but the minimum sources must be 5 or more.Please note that this assignment is calling for an Analytical Essay and not an Argumentative Essay. The key difference between an argumentative and an analytical essay is to do with whether you are trying to be persuasive (argumentative) or trying to report something in a detailed but straightforward way (analytical). In this essay you should seek to explain events, present key facts, and to describe points that other people have raised, and perhaps had differences of opinions about. In the process of doing this you don’t need to take sides. Remember to stay neutral, fair and balanced. You are reporting what others have said, and what research has found. You are not trying to passionately convince people that you are right.Provide evidence where you can and outline the relevance of the issue to contemporary media practice. Your thesis statement should raise a how or why question, derived from the essay topic. A strong thesis statement poses a specific question that you can set about answering (providing you with a nice punchy conclusion), a weak thesis statement sets up a vague question that can’t be definitively answered, leading you to an inconclusive conclusion.The words count should be not exceed 1500 words except references.Marking criteria and Feedback Marks will be allocated for:Essay structure (following conventions)Logic, fairness and narrative structureSources and application of researchIn text and end text citation in Chicago 17th EditionGrammar, word use and sentence structureHere are some points to consider when writing the essay:Explain why this issue matters.

Cite some more sources.Explain the most important perspectives on the issue from major stakeholders, and/or reputable academic sources.Note interesting similarities and differences in these perspectives or do some other kind of interesting thinking.
