    Respond to these 4 posts
    First post week6: Health
    literacy refers to an individual’s capacity to locate, interpret, and use
    information and services to help them and others make health-related decisions
    and activities.
    Individuals with low health literacy have more
    difficulty understanding written and spoken instructions from health care
    experts, following orders such as prescriptions or appointment schedules, and
    comprehending the health care system well enough to access necessary services.
    They are more likely to be hospitalized, acquire more illnesses, and die as a
    result of their inability to evaluate health information. These individuals are
    also more likely to seek primary care in emergency departments than their peers
    with better health literacy scores. 
    Professional nurses with health literacy
    abilities can communicate more effectively with the general public or
    customers. This good communication based on proper health facts will allow
    individuals to make the best decisions about their health concerns. 
    Second post week5: Social
    determinants of health (SDOH) are the conditions in the environments where
    people are born, live, learn, work, play, worship, and age that affect a wide
    range of health, functioning, and quality-of-life outcomes and risks. An
    individual’s unique circumstances that affect their health and well-being are
    known as social determinants of health. They consist of, for instance,
    socioeconomic, political, and cultural elements. The ease with which someone
    can obtain healthcare, education, a secure place to live, and a diet rich in
    nutrients are other instances of social determinants of health. The SDOH have a
    significant impact on health disparities, which are the unjust and preventable
    variations in health status that exist both within and between nations. Health
    and sickness exhibit a social gradient across nations of all income levels: the
    poorer one’s socioeconomic standing, the worse one’s health. Correctly
    addressing SDOH is essential for enhancing health and lowering persistent
    disparities in health, necessitating engagement from all spheres of society,
    including civil society.
    Third post week 5: Social
    determinants of health comprise the diverse conditions in which individuals
    live, learn, work, and age, and how these circumstances impact their overall
    health. These factors include income level, educational attainment, housing
    quality, and neighborhood safety, all of which can significantly influence a
    person’s well-being over the course of their life. The five key domains
    associated with social determinants of health are economic stability,
    education, health and healthcare, neighborhood and built environment, and
    social and community context (Rector, 2020). These determinants play a crucial
    role in shaping health outcomes and contributing to health disparities.
    Individuals with lower socioeconomic status, limited education, unstable
    employment, and inadequate access to healthcare are more likely to experience
    poorer health outcomes compared to those with higher social and economic
    resources. Disparities in health outcomes are often exacerbated by the gap
    between the richest and poorest individuals, leading to significant differences
    in health. Access to safe water, clean air, healthy workplaces, secure housing,
    and well-maintained communities and roads are all essential for promoting good
    health. Conversely, individuals residing in environments lacking these
    essential attributes may face increased health risks. These health inequities
    are rooted in systemic inequalities and injustices that create barriers to
    health-promoting resources and opportunities for specific populations.
    Addressing these social determinants of health is essential in reducing health
    disparities and fostering a more equitable healthcare system that supports the
    well-being of all individuals.

    Fourth post week 4: The nursing method, which defines the problem,
    identifies goals, looks at potential policies, and chooses the one that is most
    closely aligned with the goal, is comparable to the rational approach. This
    method is predicated on a more idealized world, one in which emotion and the
    impact of special interests are not taken into account and rationality rules
    supreme.
    Alternatively, the Kingdon model for developing health policy is
    one of the most popular models for moving a policy forward. According to this
    paradigm, there are three streams in which the policy formation process takes
    place: the political, the policy, and the problem streams. According to
    Kingdon, these streams are just hanging about, waiting for any two streams to
    couple up to create a “window of opportunity.” This window of
    opportunity provides an atmosphere thought to be essential for the formulation of
    policy.

    Experts provide expert evidence, defined as “Evidence about a scientific, technical, professional, or other specialized issue given by a person qualified to testify because of familiarity with the subject or special training in the field” (Garner,2014, p. 675). Professional reputation, clinical expertise, and communication skills are the most significant factors sought in the nurse expert witness (Dickinson & Meyer, 2020). An expert witness They should clear and concise wording in their testimony. Their testimony will be on the area of expertise they offer. The expert witness is prepped with all materials that will be relevant to the case, most pertinent will be specific records the expert is to state opinions on. Legal nurse consultants fill a vital role in locating, screening, and communicating with expert witnesses from pre-suit through adjudication (Dickinson & Meyer, 2020).
    Novice expert witness may have more credibility with juries than experts with extensive testifying experience (Dickinson & Meyer, 2020). The novice expert may meet the criteria for testifying more than the expert. The LNC offers clear and concise wording to the novice for better communication. Thoroughly review the evidence they will be giving opinion on. Allow the novice to visit the courtroom to know where they will be located. The LNC is to be available to answer any questions offered by the novice and provide clear, understandable answers.

    I would employ similar strategies when preparing the novice expert witness versus the experienced expert witness. As stated in the text, adequately preparing the expert witness for a deposition or a trial cannot be overemphasized (Dickinson and Meyer, 2020). Although the experienced expert witness has experience in depositions and trials, it would be unwise to assume that less preparation is necessary. Every trial and deposition are different. Opposing counsel can vary in their questioning strategies. Rules and regulations change. What may have been successful in one trial may lead to an unfavorable outcome in another, so it is critical that the legal nurse consultant does not make any assumptions, consciously or subconsciously, about the abilities of the novice and the expert to successfully testify based solely on experience. Reviewing questions for cross-examination from both the plaintiff’s attorney and the defense attorney is critical; this will help the attorney and the LNC to critique the expert’s answers, show him or her how to deal with the questioning tactics of opposing counsel, evaluate his or her demeanor, and assess how the jury may perceive the witness (Dickinson and Meyer, 2020). Having a videotaped mock trial is another preparation method; this will allow the attorney and the LNC to review with the witness things such as eye contact, articulation, posture, and body language (Dickinson and Meyer, 2020).
    Teach the novice expert witness (or review with the experienced expert witness) the importance of answering questions concisely and not offering more information. Offering more details opens further lines of questioning from opposing counsel; this can assist the opposing counsel with destroying the credibility of the expert witness (Dickinson and Meyer, 2020). Explain the trial and deposition processes to the expert witnesses so that they know what to expect. Answer any questions that the witnesses may have about the processes. Emphasize to the expert witness the importance of a good night’s sleep, a good breakfast, allowing for travel time, silencing electronic devices, and remaining calm throughout the trial or deposition; additionally, conservative business attire should be worn (Dickinson and Meyer, 2020). A well-prepared expert witness can result in a favorable case outcome.
