Describe a plan of care to ensure nurses are prepared to provide optimal care.

What are your feelings on how the current global health emergency has affected the way nurses provides care to their patients? What are two things you would do as a nurse working during these times to ensure safety and teamwork on your shift?

Explain how eyeglasses correct for these two types of deficiencies.

Make sure to include topics that are related to what we’re learning in the optics course — for example, show in some detail how the refraction equation is used to determine the path of light inside the eye for a distant source of light. Include explanations of what it means to be near-sighted or far-sighted, using equations and diagrams. Explain how eyeglasses correct for these two types of deficiencies. Also explain how and why people generally lose their ability to focus on nearby things as they get older, and the correction for this. There are various ways to diagnose the optical properties and deficiencies of the eye, and you could explain some of them (again, making contact with a quantitative treatment based on what we’ve been learning in the course.)

Discuss the formal and informal powers of the Governor Texas?

Objective: The objective for this assignment is for students to understand the critical linkage between participatory democracy (elections) and public policy in a representative democracy. It is the individual and corporate responsibility of the voters to make sure that elected officials implement public policy beneficial to the public and, if they do not, to remove them from office the next election. Students must explain how elected governors can use their formal and informal powers to influence public policy.

Congratulations! You have recently been elected the Governor of Texas. You built your successful campaign around promises to address four issues that are significant to the voters of Texas: controlling immigration from Mexico, upgrading the state’s roads and highways, making sure the death penalty is applied fairly and improving k-12 education. Please discuss each of these issues and focus on the following:

Why these issues likely helped get you elected Governor (refer to Campaign message and campaign strategy from Unit 2)? (Unit 2 Written Lectures, Slide 2-25)
Discuss the formal and informal powers of the Governor Texas? (Unit 6 Written Lectures, Slides 6-5, 6-6, 6-7, 6-8, 6-9, 6-10))
What is at least one formal power (do not use the same formal power all of the issues) that you can use to get each policy passed by the legislature? (Unit 6 Written Lectures, Slides 6-5, 6-6 & 6-7)
What is at least one informal power (do not use the same informal power for each of the issues)
