PLEASE SEE DISCUSSION RUBIC VERY IMPORTANT!!!!! You can find the discussion rubic attached as well, please also make sure to review. Points will be taken off if not done correctly. Please use everything in your own words.
Review the NY state's website so you become familiar with state resources for the elderly(Link Below). Choose a nursing home facility from the last link provided in the resources. Compare the nursing home website (what does it say about the facility) to the profile reviews by the state.
Discuss the reviews and then discuss if you would put a loved one there explaining why or why not? What are the issues you would need to look into based upon your reading of Chapter 4? You MUST discuss what you read about nursing homes to receive full credit.
DISCUSSION POST REQUIREMENT
- The initial discussion post must be at least 250-350 words of content, referencing the reading of the week, and including at least one scholarly source.
- CORRECT APA FORMAT!!
- All initial posts need a reference. Your initial post should never be all opinion. You need to refer to the reading and required resources and prove your information with valid data.
Bullet points that may help you create a post that will ensure a great grade:
1. DO NOT copy information from any source even if you're giving credit to the source. You can use one quote in a post. More than that will drop your grade.
2. USE intext citations. These are necessary to the post. For each area that you discuss and each idea you present you MUST add the author and date in parenthesis, to your post.
3. AVOID using outdated references. References that are more than 5 years old are not appropriate in most cases. Avoid it. Healthcare is rapidly changing. References that are 20 years old are most likely inappropriate. Don't chance it.
