    In the paper I have to answer these questions to readmit back into nursing scho

    In the paper I have to answer these questions to readmit back into nursing school.
    1. Why did you withdraw from Nightingale and how have things changed since then?
    2. Why is now a better time to return to school?
    3. Do you forsee any obstacles to your success?
    4. What will completing your program mean to you?
    5. How do you embody the Nightingale Vision and Values?
    So I will answer some of those questions and you can rewrite it better for me. So I had to withdraw from the nursing program because I had some medical issues. And yes things have changed because I am no longer suffering from those illnesses. This is a better time because my medical issues are under control. I don’t see me having any obstacles moving forward. Competing the BSN program will be the best for me, being that I am a single mom and I have been working as a LVN for quite a while. Nightingale College vision is “Better Health & Better Humanity for a Better World”. I embody Nightingale values and vision by understanding the values, lead by example, align my decisions with values, incorporate them into my daily actions.

    The following bulletin at a large manufacturing company provides guidelines for the plant security supervisors in assigning duties to the plant security guards at five separate plants. Revise and reorganize to make the bulletin easier to read and more useful to the supervisors.
    BULLETIN
    All supervisors must be conscious of the need to reduce costs and properly use available security guards in the most effective manner. Consider staggering the start and quit times to ensure a larger force during the peak demand hours. Every effort should be made to eliminate non-security service functions, such as airport pickup, mail runs, drives to banks, drives to medical centers, and parcel pickup. The supervisors should regularly review the schedule to be sure the coverage meets the plant’s needs. Guards assigned to gates should advise the shift supervisors whenever they leave their posts, including for lunch breaks. Non-security service functions should be contracted out if possible. Drives to banks should be performed by the responsible department, but a department may request a security guard escort. Guards assigned to patrols, shipping and receiving docks, and special surveillance should tell the shift supervisors when they leave their assigned task, even during the lunch break. Supervisors should consider combining spot checks with the regular duties of guards. For example, if a guard must open a gate and passes the trash center, the guard can spot-check the trash pickup on the way to or from opening the gate. Supervisors must know about the outside employment of guards. These outside activities should not adversely affect the security arrangements at the plant. In general, security guards should not also work at racetracks or casinos, or any places associated with gambling. Guards also should not be in partnership with co-workers since that relationship could negatively affect plant security. Supervisors need to check attendance records regularly. Frequent illness may indicate the guard cannot do the physical tasks appropriately. Questionable illness reports should be checked. Guards who operate small businesses may resist the normal rotation because it will interfere with their outside employment. Security requires a 7-day operation.

    Turnitin™ enabledThis assignment will be submitted to Turnitin™.
    Instructions
    The OSINT Collection plan will use the references presented in class, as well as other relevant material, to develop a strategy for collecting OSINT surrounding the scenario selected by the student. This assignment is NOT the actual analysis. You are to consider how, what, and where you might find relevant OSINT regarding your topic. This should assume that your topic is ‘new’ and little to no analytical OSINT has been conducted on your topic. There is no standard format for the OSINT Collection Plan. However, it should have the following characteristics:

    The report should be based on the information requirements YOU develop for your scenario.
    Assist your supported decision-maker in visualizing their problem.
    Cover current and future issues surrounding your topic.
    Use a variety of OSINT sources.
    From both “mainstream” and “unique” sources
    Offer intelligence/information from both sides of the issue.
    Cover the collection capabilities of all echelons involved with your problem.
    Contain precise and directive language.
    Written Assignment Guidance
    Your written assignments should include:

    Name, Title Page, and appropriate headings
    Typewritten in double-spaced format
    Times New Roman 12-point font
    1-inch page margins
    Appropriate citations and references

    It should adhere to graduate style standards which means no informal writing, slang, or jargon, well organized, and well cited. While specific citation counts can vary, a good rule of thumb is approximately 10 academic sources and a minimum of 2-3 citations per page to add weight to your arguments.

    Your OSINT Collection Plan should be between 5-10 pages and organized as appropriate for your scenario.

    NOTE: This is a collection PLAN, not actual analysis or reporting. As a guide, consider that you are a mid-level analyst and you are mentoring a junior analyst on where to find appropriate information, why you are using that appropriate information, and any ‘tips/tricks’ or stumbling blocks that might occur along the way. Your next assignment will fulfill the actual reporting.

    The OSINT Collection Plan will be evaluated by the instructor using the APUS Assignment rubric scoring guide.

  • Part A: Initial Post Hallucinogens and Psychedelics have been used for centuries

    Part A: Initial Post
    Hallucinogens and Psychedelics have been used for centuries

    Part A: Initial Post
    Hallucinogens and Psychedelics have been used for centuries. Many cultures have believed that these substances take them to a spiritual place where they are able to see beyond the earth. However, this appears not to be the case in American culture where the use of hallucinogens and psychedelics have no clinical benefit but are used to enhance the party effect. For this discussion, you will use the text, and at least two other sources, to take two opposing positions. One; you are a “salesperson” of hallucinogens and psychedelics at a party. Convince me why I should buy these substances and use them, (investigate how much these substances cost), at the party. Two; you are my best friend who is knowledgeable of the cons of using these substances. Convince me not to buy or use them. Read these out loud to someone in your family and ask them which “convincing” sounds more appealing.
    Part B: Responses to Peers
    Add an additional perspective to what each student has presented for them to consider.
    Part C: Expand and Integrate the Discussion
    Refute what the other students presented, challenge the idea or assumption and modify it, or accept the other students’ responses to your answers. Explain and justify why you did refute, challenge and modify, or accept their ideas. How did what they say help you clarify or expand on your original answers?
    Your grade will be determined according to the Discussion Rubric embedded in this discussion assignment.

What resources do you have to help you to improve?
    How will you know that you have improved? Consider setting specific goals for yourself. Perhaps there are ten key words (perhaps they are specific to your major) that you will learn to spell correctly, so that you never spell them incorrectly again.
    What goal will you set for yourself? Make it attainable, but don’t be afraid to stretch a little. How is this plan relevant to your present and/or future employment goals?
    Set a date by which you will try to meet your goals.
