Please answer the following healthcare questions using no more than 250 words. Please be sure to use intext citation, and valid sources. Each questions should have at least three sources.

1. Scan the three resources regarding Burless. Why would or would not the hospital be responsible for the actions of the physician (the doctrine of respondent superior)? Do you agree with the court’s decision?
2. After Reading the William Beaumont Hospital and Jeri Antilla case above consider the following questions.  Do you agree with the decisions made in the Beaumont case with regard to the terminations of Antilla and Brandt?  Why or why not? Do you agree with the decision regarding the provisions of Beaumont’s Code of Conduct and whether they violated Section 8(a)(1) of the National Labor Relations Act?  Why or why not?  How do you think the hospital should have handled the events giving rise to this decision?  How would you have handled if you were the supervisor?
3. You are the Vice President of Nursing at Good Care Medical Center, a large hospital located in New Jersey.  The CEO has formed a committee of various clinicians to consider whether the hospital should expand nursing services to include multiple Advanced Practice Registered Nurses (APRNs).  You are tasked with briefing the committee that advocates for the expansion effort.  You should discuss the scope of practice rules and regulations regarding APRN’s in New Jersey, including data that will inform the committee’s deliberations.  Provide at least one example of another state or provider that has successfully expanded nursing services.
4. Scan the decision in OCA, Inc. v. Hodges.  Do you agree with the Pennsylvania law? 
   Why or why not?
5. Review Darling v. Charleston Community Memorial Hospital.  The patient’s injury in this case seems clearly to have been caused by a bad doctor (who, as the beginning of the opinion indicates, settled with the patient for $40,000).  Why then was the hospital also found to be negligent?  Is this case primarily about the behavior of individual nurses, or is the hospital also being held responsible for larger policy decisions?
6. Research no-fault compensation models in Sweden and New Zealand.  What would be the primary advantages if the U.S. adopted a no-fault system?  What would be the drawbacks?  Would you support such a change?  Why or why not?

   What is a living will?
   What is a health care durable power of attorney (also known as a health care proxy)?
   How can someone create a living will or health care proxy?
   What issues should someone consider before making a living will or health care proxy?
   How are treatment decisions made for incapacitated patients who do not have health care proxies or living wills?
   What will happen if a patient’s family members disagree about the care of an incapacitated patient?
   What will happen if a patient’s health care provider believes that the family is insisting on medically inappropriate treatment?
   Provide a brief overview.
8. What is “shared decision-making”?  What are its intended benefits?  How does the Affordable Care Act encourage the use of shared decision-making?  What are some examples of state efforts to promote shared decision-making?  What are some of the key barriers to the use of shared decision-making?
9. What is stem cell research? Why is it highly controversial?  What do opponents say about it?  What do supporters say?  How did President Bush impact the law?  How did President Obama impact the law?  What course of action did the Supreme Court take?  Lastly, what is the law today?  If you are comfortable, share your opinion about the
   laws in this regard.
10. Reflect upon the court opinion in the Iturralde v. Hilo Medical Center:  http://caselaw.findlaw.com/hi-intermediate-court-of appeals/1597588.html.  Locate provisions in the applicable code of ethics that were violated by the physician and nurse(s).  How can the organization prevent similar incidents in the future?  What should be done to hold the physician and nurse(s) accountable to themselves and their patients?  If you were the CEO supervising the medical staff what consequence would you impose
