Please respond to the following post, with your opinion, add citations and references.

Nutrition plays a big part in a patient’s care that is being provided. Eating a well-balanced meal is important in regards to health promotion and helps in leading full and healthy lifestyles. Being knowledgeable regarding prominent noncommunicable diseases and proper dietary recommendations is the first step for nurses to learn to assist their patients in making healthier choices (Grand Canyon University, 2018). It is important for nurses to assist in healthier eating habits to prevent further health problems such as obesity, congestive heart failure, diabetes, and hypertension. Those are the most common health disparities in relation to nutrition today.

Nutritional deficiency and excess play a large role in health disparities. Nutritional deficiency causes a lack of important vitamins that are needed to fuel a patient’s body. Some patient’s may not have access to all food sources that fall in line with the food pyramid that is recommended. Nutritional excess is from overconsumption and that is something that can prevented, unlike nutritional deficiency. It is much easier to get a full meal from the dollar menu at a fast food restaurant that is packed with carbohydrates and sodium, rather than planning out a meal that is good for a patient.

What are some ways that we can help patients in choosing the correct nutrition path for health promotion?

Anti-Kickback and Stark Acts discussion

/in /by

Assignment


Two physicians, Dr. S. and Dr. V., leased a nuclear camera so that they would no longer have to refer their patients to the local hospital for nuclear imaging.  Faced with the prospect of losing over a third of its $2,274,094 in annual gross nuclear medicine revenues, the hospital responded by threatening to revoke the doctors’ admitting privileges.  Lengthy negotiations ensued, at the end of which the hospital agreed to sublease the camera from the two physicians; the camera remained at the physicians’ offices but other physicians with privileges at the hospital could use it. Four other local physicians who provided the same or similar services to patients as Drs. S. and V. brought a qui tam action alleging that the sublease violated the Anti-Kickback and Stark Acts and that the defendants falsely certified compliance with those laws in connection with claims submitted to Medicare in violation of the False Claims Act.

    ‘Where the Mind is Without Fear’

    Where the mind is without fear and the head is held high;
    Where knowledge is free;
    Where the world has not been broken up into fragments by narrow domestic walls;
    Where words come out from the depth of truth;
    Where tireless striving stretches its arms towards perfection:
    Where the clear stream of reason has not lost its way into the dreary desert sand of dead habit;
    Where the mind is lead forward by thee into ever-widening thought and action–
    Into that heaven of freedom, my Father, let my country awake.
