If appropriate, support your position with credible resources/examples/evidence and provide APA references.Mr. BMr. B, a 70-year-old male client, presented to his primary care physician with complaints of blurred vision and headaches over the last two months. On several visits, Mr. B's blood pressure was found to be elevated, so the physician started him on hydrochlorothiazide 25 mg by mouth daily. One month later, Mr. B began to have chest pains and shortness of breath, so his primary care provider referred Mr. B to a cardiologist for further evaluation.The cardiologist ordered an echocardiogram and stress test which revealed heart enlargement and a reduced ejection fraction (volume of blood pumped out of the heart per minute). As a result, the cardiologist started Mr. B on a beta-blocker (metoprolol 25 mg by mouth daily).A few days after taking the new medication (in addition to the hydrochlorothiazide ordered by the primary physician), Mr. B suffered a fall at home. Upon arrival at the emergency room, Mr. B's blood pressure was 80/50. The emergency room physician suspected the cause of Mr. B's fall was hypotension secondary to the medications he was taking. The ER physician recommended that Mr. B follow up with his primary care physician and cardiologist, but hold the medication until seen by them.As recommended, Mr. B visits his primary care physician for a follow-up. During the visit, Mr. B's blood pressure is found to be elevated (160/90), so his physician tells Mr. B to restart taking his blood pressure medication.Imagine that you are the nurse attending to Mr. B and that he indicates that he's afraid to restart the medication because of his recent fall.1.What considerations/actions should the nurse make regarding the client's refusal to restart his blood pressure medication?2.What considerations/actions would have helped the healthcare team to prevent the client's fall?PART 7Module 08 Course Project - Presentation OutlineCourse Competency: [POLPHARAMACY]Identify local, state, and national resources which facilitate safe and effective transitions of care for older adults.Your supervisor at Rasmussen Home Health Services is satisfied with the resources described in your annotated bibliography and is eager for you to continue your work.

They are excited to see the PowerPoint slideshow you are creating for your topic's in-service training. Having developed a number of presentations for in-services, your supervisor offered the following advice:"When developing a slideshow, it's important to be mindful of how you layout your content. For an in-service presentation, the slides should present key points, be arranged logically, without extraneous information contributing to a cluttered look. The audience should get a lot of the content from listening to what you say, not just from reading the slides. Using the Speaker Notes feature in PowerPoint is a great way to include relevant details that you want to provide without overloading the slides."Your supervisor wants you to work from your outline and prepare a visually appealing PowerPoint slideshow for the in-service presentation. They said it should:1.Have a title slide.2.Contain 6-10 content slides pertaining to the important content areas for your presentation topic.3.Use the Speaker Notes feature in PowerPoint to reduce the amount of text that appears on the slides. (The Speaker Notes will contain the text that will guide what you say while presenting the slides.)4.Be written using proper spelling/grammar.5. Cite at least 2 credible references and present the sources in APA format on a References slide.PART 10Module 11 Assignment - Reflect on Your DevelopmentPurpose of Assignment:It is important for nurses to reflect on experiences and new knowledge gained in order to promote professional growth.Course Competencies:A.
