This has been challenged with the new proposal and the concept of work requirements for those on \u201cwelfare\u201d to receive these benefits. On January 11, 2018, the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS) issued a\u00a0<\/strong><strong>State Medicaid Director Letter<\/strong><strong>\u00a0providing new guidance for Section 1115 waiver proposals that would impose work requirements (referred to as community engagement) in Medicaid as a condition of eligibility.<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p>&nbsp;<br \/>\nKentucky has already changed its eligibility requirements and South Dakota, Alabama, Louisiana, and South Carolina submitted formal requests.

The work environment has not supported shared governance and independent decision-making. It is not unusual to hear insensitive comments or stereotypical statements.\u00a0 There is no nursing staff diversity.\u00a0 The population served by this clinic is a 5-mile radius in one of the poorest areas of Any City, Some State with a population of mixed minorities, low-income, single-parent homes, high unemployment, and poor health status and outcomes. Children attend a neighborhood school that is one of the poorer schools in the district and have even experienced lack of heat during the early part of the winter. When discussing the issues with her peers, her friends laughed at her decision to stay and recommended she leave the job immediately. The nurse has been offered the position as Director of Nursing under a new Health Care Administrator who is under a directive to correct the issues and improve the quality of care for the clients served in this community. Respond to the following questions from the perspective of a new Director hiring and employing a full nursing staff to support this agency.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<ol>\n<li>Explain the workforce ecosystem model.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<ol>\n<li>Using components of the model as the guiding activities in your plan, identify changes or actions that will be addressed in each component to alter this work environment as you move to full nurse staffing.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<ol>\n<li>What key ethical issues identified in the ANA Code of Ethics must be addressed as a part of your plan?<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<ol>\n<li>Identify two types of training you would include in your orientation program for all staff.
