Can someone write a short paper and answer 5 questions?

Question 1

You are a billing clerk for a nursing home. Your regular responsibilities require you to work in the office. You do not usual

ly

have too much contact with the residents. You are in the employee lunchroom when you hear two nurses talking to each

other

abou

t a very difficult patient. The two nurses are talking about how much easier it is to deal with Mr. Jones since he has been

restrained to the bed. You know that this patient resident is difficult to deal with, but he is not usually a danger to hi

mself or

o

thers. When you talk to your manager about your concerns, you are basically told not to worry about it since you are not a

medical professional.

You are in fact not a medical professional. Do you have the same obligations to report the abuse? Wha

t specif

ic steps do you

take? Should you come forward even if you have no proof? Do you go over your boss' head? Who do you report your suspicions

to?

Question 2

Lucy, a senior nurse, applies for an open position with

her current employer. The position wo

uld be a significant raise with more

responsibility and better hours. Lucy is told that she was not qualified for the position, and someone who is more qualified

has

been offered the position. Lucy is upset but understa

nds that someone better qualified was

hired. As she is finishing her shift one

day, Lucy overhears the nurse manager telling the director that she could not give Lucy the promotion. Lucy had been there so

long and was making too much money, and the nurse m

anager could not afford to pay Lucy a

dditional money. She had to hire

someone younger for the promotion because she did not have the budget to pay her a higher salary for less work. Lucy has just

been there too long. The nurse manager was able to get someo

ne in their 20s and pay them half com

pared to what Lucy was

making.

What claims, if any, can the nurse bring against the hospital? What specific law can she raise to support her arguments? Woul

d

she be successful in her claim? Why, or why not? What is yo

ur opinion? Be sure to include reasons

to support your answer.

The

response should be at least 200 words in length

for Question 1 and 2
