Why do so some pediatric diabetic patients show up in the emergency department with an uncontrolled episode? These questions have led the DNP scholar and other healthcare providers to consider the social determinants of health. This query also requires that consideration be given to “how?” How do healthcare providers improve outcomes for a given population? Explore these questions as they relate to the….

The DSM-5 is a diagnostic tool. It has evolved over the decades, as have the classifications and criteria within its pages. It is used not just for diagnosis, however, but also for billing, access to services, and legal cases. Not all practitioners are in agreement with the content and structure of the DSM-5, and dissociative disorders are one such area. These disorders can be difficult to distinguish and diagnose. There is also controversy in the field over the legitimacy of certain dissociative disorders, such as dissociative identity disorder, which was formerly called multiple personality disorder.

In this Assignment, you will examine the controversy surrounding dissociative disorders. You will also explore clinical, ethical, and legal considerations pertinent to working with patients with these disorders.

Violence encompasses a broad range of issues in the home, culture, and world, according to Falkner, Green, and Whitney (2018). Domestic violence, child abuse, and even elder abuse can occur in the home. As nurses, we must be aware of characteristics that might cause us to suspect abuse ofsome kind. “You never know what goes on behind closed doors,” as the saying goes.Physical abuse may be the first thing that comes to mind when we think about domestic violence, but this is not the case. Domestic violence can take many forms, including control, sexual harassment, emotional abuse, and intimidation. Isolation, verbal assault, and financial exploitation are all forms of abuse (Arizona Coalition To End Sexual and Domestic Violence, 2019). And though it is difficult to….
