Professionalism and Social Media

Assignment Description:

Social media plays a significant role in the lives of nurses in both their professional and personal lives. Additionally, social media is now considered a mainstream part of the process for recruiting and hiring candidates. Inappropriate or unethical conduct on social media can create legal problems for nurses as well as the field of nursing.

Login to all social media sites in which you engage. Review your profile, pictures and posts. Based on the professional standards of nursing, identify items that would be considered unprofessional and potentially detrimental to your career and that negatively impact the reputation of the nursing field.

In 500-750 words, summarize the findings of your review. Include the following:

  1. Describe the posts or conversations in which you have engaged that might be considered inappropriate based on the professional standards of nursing.
  2. Discuss why nurses have a responsibility to uphold a standard of conduct consistent with the standards governing the profession of nursing at work and in their personal lives. Include discussion of how personal conduct can violate HIPAA or be considered unethical or unprofessional. Provide an example of each to support your answer.
  3. Based on the analysis of your social media, discuss what areas of your social media activity reflect Christian values as they relate to respecting human value and dignity for all individuals. Describe areas of your social media activity that could be improved.

1919 Elaine Riots

1919 Elaine Riots

With these ideas in mind, examine the evidence concerning the events in Phillips County in 1919 and write a narrative account of what you think occurred. You must use the press materials located at the “Elaine Riot” web site AND the pamphlet, “The Arkansas Race Riot” by Ida B. Wells (located at the sites/.pdf files listed below), and historical materials you find at the Ellis Library newspaper archives databases (a minimum of eight that you find on your own). You cannot complete the assignment unless you use all of these sources, and we will not accept incomplete assignments. Use the textbook and Bb assignments to help you understand Jim Crow, the justice system, and political, social and economic structures in the period, especially sharecropping and debt peonage.

 

Your narrative account should include a basic chronology of the events from September 30, 1919 to December 31, 1919 and your reasons for selecting particular evidence when there are conflicting accounts in the sources. To do this, you will need to indicate where discrepancies exist and why you believe, or “privilege,” one version of the facts over another. You will also need to select newspaper articles (minimum of eight) about other race riots in the 1918-1923 period and place the Arkansas riot in the context of these other events.

 

Be sure to indicate exactly which news articles you found on your own and why you chose them as sources.

For the final paragraph, examine the legacy of the US Supreme Court decision, Moore v. Dempsey. 

 

The minimum length of the papers is 2,700 words minimum, not counting end notes. Be sure to double-spaced and use twelve-point type and one-inch margins. Use endnotes to indicate where you found your evidence.
