NUR 634-DQ: Patient meets criteria for admission

ORDER NOW FOR AN ORIGINAL PAPER!!! NUR 634-DQ: Patient meets criteria for admission.

After reading Chapter 8 – Refining the Continuum of Care, we will use the criteria from the case study regarding admission criteria and history and physical report (see screenshot below). Review the criteria set titled “Admission Criteria” and the figure “History and Physical Report.”

Compare the patient’s history with the admission criteria to determine whether the patient meets criteria for admission to the hospital. To qualify, the patient must meet at least one criterion in the severity of illness and one criterion in the intensity of service.

Instructions

Prepare an APA-style paper that includes the following elements:

Introduction:
Why do we need criteria to assess pre admission, care management and discharge processes?
Why is the preadmission screening process an important component of the continuum of car?
Body: Using the case study information, explain how the patient meets or does not meet the criteria for hospital admission (one criterion from the severity of the illness category and one criterion from the intensity of service category).
Conclusion: Summarize why the preadmission process is so important, what negative outcomes can happen if patients are not appropriately screened? What are the implications for the hospital (financial or otherwise), for the patient?
Minimum length of 2 pages excluding cover page and reference page.
List your references in proper APA style, including the textbook.

You must proofread your paper. But do not strictly rely on your computer’s spell-checker and grammar-checker; failure to do so indicates a lack of effort on your part and you can expect your grade to suffer accordingly. Papers with numerous misspelled words and grammatical mistakes will be penalized. Read over your paper – in silence and then aloud – before handing it in and make corrections as necessary. Often it is advantageous to have a friend proofread your paper for obvious errors. Handwritten corrections are preferable to uncorrected mistakes.

Use a standard 10 to 12 point (10 to 12 characters per inch) typeface. Smaller or compressed type and papers with small margins or single-spacing are hard to read. It is better to let your essay run over the recommended number of pages than to try to compress it into fewer pages.

Likewise, large type, large margins, large indentations, triple-spacing, increased leading (space between lines), increased kerning (space between letters), and any other such attempts at “padding” to increase the length of a paper are unacceptable, wasteful of trees, and will not fool your professor.

The paper must be neatly formatted, double-spaced with a one-inch margin on the top, bottom, and sides of each page. When submitting hard copy, be sure to use white paper and print out using dark ink. If it is hard to read your essay, it will also be hard to follow your argument.
