ORDER A PLAGIARISM FREE PAPER NOW

“Before there was Paris Hilton, there was Consuelo Vanderbilt Balsan – a Gilded Age heiress and socialite, renowned for her beauty and wealth. Ms. Balsan’s onetime Hamptons home was slated to hit the market priced at $38 million with Tim Davis of the Corcoran Group.

Located on Ox Pasture Road in Southampton, the shingle-style home was built around 1910 and is known as “Gardenside” or “Cara-Mia”. Ms. Balsan, the great-granddaughter of railroad magnate Cornelius Vanderbilt, owned the house until her death in 1954.

According to public records, the estate is owned by Robert G. Goldstein, executive vice president and president of global gaming operations at Las Vegas Sands Corp, and his wife Sheryl, who purchased the house in 2002 for $17.4 million.” (The Wall Street Journal, August 1, 2014, M2)

In your initial response to the topic you have to answer all questions.

You are expected to make your own contribution in a main topic as well as respond with value added comments to at least two of your classmates as well as to your instructor.

  1. Calculate the annual compound growth rate of the house price during the period when the house was owned by Robert G. Goldstein (since 2002). (Round the number of years to the whole number). Please show your work.
  2. Assume that the growth rate you calculated in question #1 remains the same for the next 30 years. Calculate the price of the house in 30 years after it was sold by Robert G. Goldstein. Please show your work.
  3. Assume that the growth rate you calculated in question #1 remains the same since the house was sold. Calculate the price of the house today. (Round the number of years to the whole number). Please show your work.
  4. Assume the growth rate that you calculated in #1 prevailed since 1910. Calculate the price of the house in 1910. Please show your work.
  5. Assume the growth rate that you calculated in #1 prevailed since 1910. Calculate the price of the house in 1954. Please show your work.
  6. You were using the time value of money concept to answer question #5. Think about the time line for that problem. What is the time point 0 in that problem? Please explain your answer.
  7. Reflection – the students also should include a paragraph in the initial response in their own words reflecting on specifically what they learned from the assignment and how they think they could apply what they learned in the workplace.

FIRST ASSIGNMENT

PICOT: In hospitalized geriatric patients (P), does incorporating educational strategies into the patient’s plan of care and use of medicated urinary catheter (I), compared to use of a medicated urinary catheter alone (C), decrease incidence of inpatient catheter associated urinary tract infections (CAUTI’s) (O) over a three-month period (T).

On the discussion board, using a minimum of two articles that are supporting your PICOT question, submit one paragraph synthesizing the research into clear, concise statements without separately reviewing each of the studies in the paragraph—but by paraphrasing and synthesizing the work that was done.

All references and in-text citations should be in APA format. References must have a DOI or weblink showing where it was gotten from. References must be between 2014-2019. Please use proper grammer, avoid run-on, and incomplete sentences. Be mindful of punctuation.

SECOND ASSIGNMENT

This week’s content discussed common psychiatric disorders in the Adult and Older Adult client. Often times a secondary diagnosis is masked due to their psychiatric disorder. Review the following case study and answer the following questions.

Mr. White is a 72-year-old man, with a history of hypertension, COPD and moderate dementia, who presents with 4 days of increased confusion, nighttime restlessness, visual hallucinations, and urinary incontinence. His physical exam is unremarkable except for tachypnea, a mildly enlarged prostate, inattentiveness, and a worsening of his MMSE score from a baseline of 18 to 12 today.

Mr. White’s presentation is most consistent with an acute delirium (acute change in cognition, perceptual derangement, waxing and waning consciousness, and inattention).

  1. What is the most likely diagnosis to frequently cause acute delirium in patients with dementia?
  2. What additional testing should you consider if any?
  3. What are treatment options to consider with this patient?

*To get you started on the second assignment, the answer to the first question is urinary tract infection. So take that and elaborate more on that diagnosis for the answer to to the first question*

All references and in-text citations should be in APA format. References must have a DOI or weblink showing where it was gotten from. References must be between 2014-2019. Please use proper grammer, avoid run-on, and incomplete sentences. Be mindful of punctuation.
