Consider the scenario below, then follow the instructions underneath it to complete the discussion. If appropriate, support your position with credible resources/examples/evidence and provide APA references.
Mr. B
Mr. B, a 70-year-old male client, presented to his primary care physician with complaints of blurred vision and headaches over the last two months. On several visits, Mr. B’s blood pressure was found to be elevated, so the physician started him on hydrochlorothiazide 25 mg by mouth daily. One month later, Mr. B began to have chest pains and shortness of breath, so his primary care provider referred Mr. B to a cardiologist for further evaluation.
The cardiologist ordered an echocardiogram and stress test which revealed heart enlargement and a reduced ejection fraction (volume of blood pumped out of the heart per minute). As a result, the cardiologist started Mr. B on a beta-blocker (metoprolol 25 mg by mouth daily).
A few days after taking the new medication (in addition to the hydrochlorothiazide ordered by the primary physician), Mr. B suffered a fall at home. Upon arrival at the emergency room, Mr. B’s blood pressure was 80/50. The emergency room physician suspected the cause of Mr. B’s fall was hypotension secondary to the medications he was taking. The ER physician recommended that Mr. B follow up with his primary care physician and cardiologist, but hold the medication until seen by them.
As recommended, Mr. B visits his primary care physician for a follow-up. During the visit, Mr. B’s blood pressure is found to be elevated (160/90), so his physician tells Mr. B to restart taking his blood pressure medication.
Imagine that you are the nurse attending to Mr. B and that he indicates that he’s afraid to restart the medication because of his recent fall.

What considerations/actions should the nurse make regarding the client’s refusal to restart his blood pressure medication?
What considerations/actions would have helped the healthcare team to prevent the client’s fall?

 

IntroductionBureaucracy is the byproduct of a representative democracy, although in the US the word is pejorative and suggests waste and inefficiency. This week’s readings explores actors and roles, both official and unofficial, in the unique US Federal government. We will also explore ideas of power, accountability, checks and balances, interest groups, political parties, the media, and interest groups.Learning ObjectivesDescribe the unique features of the American federal government and the roles of the three branches of government.—Understand the difference between official and unofficial actors and their role in the policy process Explore the historical evolution and the roles of American political parties.Explain what an interest group is, and their relationship to social movements and policy makingDescribe relationship between government and the mediaDiscuss and understand the American public policy process, including relevant political, legal, and administrative institutions.Discuss the context in which public policy decisions are made and the institutions that shape themRemindersDue/Do: The concepts of efficiency, size and purpose are common themes in discussions of how, and why, public policy is made. President Franklin Roosevelt is often credited with stabilizing the national economy and building the modern day middle class through government expansions. President Reagan is remembered for reducing the size and scope, and thereby increasing the efficiency and effectiveness of government. Both are remembered as successful Presidents who re-shaped the federal government, although they represent radically different ideas. Is government today too big or not big enough? Should our next President embody FDR or Reagan? Please use data or examples to support your answer.

Critical ThinkingThe supply chain profession entered the year leading the digitalization of ecosystems, delivering the customer experience, managing trade uncertainty and applying circular economy concepts.Digital technologies have deeply changed the way societies exchange information and interact with each other Technological novelties have altered how people communicate and share information.The evolution of SCM 4.0 is being driven by new information technologies, including Big Data, cloud computing, the Internet of Things (IoT), radio frequency identification (RFID), 3-D printing, robotics, global digital networks, artificial intelligence, and augmented reality. Global supply chain flows will become increasingly digital and integrated, and end-to-end data will be driven in real time, exponentially increasing upstream information flows.” This new paradigm calls for a new management culture. We call this management culture “Supply Chain Management 4.0.”This novel technology will affect the logistics, supply chains, manufacturing and transportation industries. Therefore, the future of every industry will be opened on innovation and technology. Every industry is going through a rapid transformation that appeared with the fourth industrial revolution.As a Project manager what measures are you going to take for your organization under below mentioned critical questions:Critical Question(s)Ques-1-Looking ahead to 2022 and beyond, what does the future hold for the supply chain? (2- Marks)Ques-2-What technology disruptors deserve immediate attention? (2- Marks)Ques-3-What are the biggest risks being faced by the supply chain leaders?

This is an inventory planning problem.A manufacturing firm makes two versions of a video game console, “Fast” and “Really Fast”.The main components that go into each console are a (1) motherboard, including a CPU and RAM chips; and a (2) graphics card.The two consoles use the same motherboard, which costs $50 per unit. The “Fast” console requires the “Fast” graphics card which costs $80; the “Really Fast” console requires a different graphics card, namely the “Really Fast” graphics card which costs $100.These consoles sell primarily in the Holiday season.The marketing department has developed a demand forecast for the two consoles for the upcoming season; in particular, they have identified five possible demand scenarios, which are equally likely outcomes.The scenarios are given in table below.ScenarioDemand for Fast ConsoleDemand for Really Fast ConsoleProbability120010000.2023008000.2035007000.2047006000.2058004000.20Suppose that the Fast Console sells for $201, while the Really Fast Console sells for $300. The firm must order the components (the mother board; and the two graphic cards) prior to the Holiday season, before it knows the demand scenario.After ordering, by the start of the Holiday season, the firm will know what the demand scenario is for the season. It can then determine how to allocate its components to the production of the two consoles to meet the demand as best as possible. Its objective is to maximize its expected revenue, net of the cost of the components.(The cost of assembly is assumed to be negligible.) Any leftover components that cannot be used to meet demand in the season have zero value.The problem is to determine how many of each component to order.You should formulate this as a stochastic linear program, and solve.NOTE: We have provided an optional spreadsheet template you can use to help formulate your solution. It will be available in the solution to part c. Based on the set up and Stochastic LP solution, answer the following questions:

By this point, you have read the novel The Martian by Andy Weir.  Hopefully, you enjoyed it.  And, now that you’ve read it, you can really start thinking about what to do with it.  This novel, as in any other science fiction novel, explores issues that relate to space exploration as well as old-fashioned human relationships.    
           Your task for this research paper is as follows: Please take some aspect of space exploration, whether you got the idea from Packing for Mars or The Martian, or you got it from somewhere else and research that subject.  Then present your research as either analytical/explanatory or argumentative-persuasive in tone and structure, depending upon the subject you researched.  This is very, very open-ended.  That is, whatever you’re interested (as long as it has to do with space exploration) is fair game!  
Here is a teeny, tiny list of possibilities to consider:

How to become an astronaut
Space camp
Space law
Why some people believe the moon landings were a hoax
The latest governmental confessions about UFOs
Rockets and how they’re constructed
International competition for space
Deep-space, interstellar probes
Radio astronomy
Off-earth telescopes
The nature of space-time
Can we go faster than the speed of light?
Wormholes
String theory
Black holes
How NASA promotes space exploration
Jet Propulsion Lab
Evolution of the aerospace industry
Private space exploration companies
