National Practice Problem Exploration
According to the Global Burden of Disease Research, one of the major practice problems in the world is diabetes (Murray, Abbafati, Abbas, Abbasi, Abbasi-Kangevari,Abd-Allah, Aboyans, 2020). Diabetes is a disorder that results from the less production of insulin or no production of insulin. Insulin is very important in controlling the blood sugar level; thus, patients with diabetes have a problem with high sugar levels in their bloodstream. This paper discusses the impacts of diabetes on nurses, nursing care, healthcare organizations, and the quality of care being provided. It also identifies the national-level key stakeholders who are affected by diabetes and stakeholders involved in the resolution. Lastly, the paper provides clinical practice guidelines (CPGs) in diabetes management.
Impact
The practice problem of managing diabetes impact the nurses and their role. They are forced to educate the general population of healthy life practices and styles that are useful in preventing diabetes. It also impacts health organizations because the management of diabetes needs a lot of policies and interventions that need to be put in place by health organizations. This practice problem also affects nursing care because it requires a lot of nursing care attention, thus overburdening the few nurses we have. Lastly, due to the increasing diabetes cases and high demand for its care, the quality of care provided might be substandard due to work overload. However, the use of evidence-based practice and other policies such as the ACA provides the opportunity of improving the quality of care being provided to diabetic patients.
Stakeholders Involved
Various stakeholders are involved in the management and control of diabetes. One such stakeholder is the patients. The patients have the role of self-care and adherence to the health instructions provided by healthcare providers. Healthcare providers such as nurses and many others are also vital stakeholders in the national management of diabetes. They provide health education and care for the patients. They also advocate for policy formulations that enhance the care for diabetic patients. Family members and friends of diabetic patients are also important stakeholders because they help provide home care to patients (Bennett, Robbins, Bayliss, Wilson, Tabano, Mularski & Li, 2017). National health institutions such as CDC are also important stakeholders because they provide policies and guidelines that effectively manage diabetes. The government's political goodwill to support the healthcare organizations and the patients also makes them part of the national stakeholders in the management of diabetes.
Clinical Practice Guidelines and Diabetes Management
Some of the clinical practice guidelines provided in the management of diabetes has been based on evidence-based practice. However, a lot of interventions need to be done to promote the prevention and treatment of diabetes. Some of the interventions that can be made include an intensified national campaign informing and enlightening the population on how to prevent and manage diabetes. Policies that reduce the cost of care and diabetes management are also essential because diabetes is a lifelong problem, and it requires a lot of resources. There is also the need to integrate technological advancement in the management of diabetes.
In conclusion, diabetes management is a major practice problem that affects nurses, nursing care, healthcare organizations, and the quality of care. It requires several stakeholders such as patients, healthcare providers, policymaking institutions and the government. There is also a need to enhance the interventions process, such as using technology, policy formulation and creating awareness on prevention and management of diabetes.

Discussion
This week's discussion will be focused on a topic that is very relevant to today's health care environment. We will be discussing the additional health care costs that need to be budgeted for as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic.
For your original post:
Find an article from a credible news source (New York Times, Chicago Tribune, etc.) or from a professional journal or association (HFMA, ACHE, etc.) that discusses the impact of COVID-19 on the budget of a particular health care organization or the health care industry in general. Be sure to provide a reference citation for your article.
Tell us how COVID-19 impacted the budget of the health care organization(s) discussed in the article.
If you were the manager of the type of organization that you mentioned in question #2, do you think that you would be best off using a static budget or a flexible budget? Why?
Discussion
Actual work where 2 students given their post on this:
Describe in 500 words discuss the scope of a cloud computing audit for your business.
Use at least three sources. Use the Research Databases available from the Danforth Library not Google. Include at least 3 quotes from your sources enclosed in quotation marks and cited in-line by reference to your reference list. Example: ""words you copied"" (citation) These quotes should be one full sentence not altered or paraphrased. Cite your sources using APA format. Use the quotes in your paragaphs. Stand alone quotes will not count toward the 3 required quotes.
Copying without attribution or the use of spinbot or other word substitution software will result in a grade of 0.
Write in essay format not in bulleted, numbered or other list format.
Reply to two classmates' posting in a paragraph of at least five sentences by asking questions, reflecting on your own experience, challenging assumptions, pointing out something new you learned, offering suggestions. These peer responses are not 'attaboys'.
It is important that you use your own words, that you cite your sources, that you comply with the instructions regarding length of your post and that you reply to two classmates in a substantive way (not 'nice post' or the like). Your goal is to help your colleagues write better. Do not use spinbot or other word replacement software. It usually results in nonsense and is not a good way to learn anything . I will not spend a lot of my time trying to decipher nonsense. Proof read your work or have it edited. Find something interesting and/or relevant to your work to write about.
