Demonstrate basic knowledge of healthcare policy, finance, and
regulatory environments including local, state, national, and global
health care trends.
This has been a difficult discussion for me to respond to. I am
currently in Nursing Policy and Ethics and I find each post and
discussion takes me many hours to be able to get my thoughts out in a
manner that conveys how I feel and what I know. This is an area where I
think constant learning and growth happens (and has to) because it is
always changing. Healthcare policy, finance, and regulatory environments
are the subject of many topics on all levels of government right now
due to Obama Care and other health care options that are being put
forth.
Right now there is only one paper that I plan to put into my
portfolio. This may change based on the rest of the semester, but for
the Public Health Nursing Ethics assignment I not only
researched information but I interviewed nurses and physicians on their
opinions and experiences regarding the changes in health care and the
“us” vs. “them” mentality of the health care community. I learned a lot
and am proud of the work I put into the assignment.
Even though I am not as familiar with this subject as I should be, I
think that I am in a good position right now because I am currently in
the class and there is so much going on in the community it gives me the
opportunity to not only take part if I want to, but to understand
better the consequences and benefits of proposed changes.
