Legal and Ethical Issues
The process of cultivating healthy environments can present a host of legal andethical challenges. The most obvious issue is the need for a significant financial
investment, which can sometimes strain businesses that must make tough decisions
about how to allocate their resources. However, a company that invests in thehealth of its employees is often able to reap rewards later by improving employee
retention and productivity.
A key aspect of a healthful environment is creating positive relationships withcoworkers. Nurses are especially vulnerable to incivility, which can NURS FPX 6008
Assessment 1 Attempt 1 Proposing a New Initiative EZ negative consequences forboth the nurses themselves and patients (American Nurses Association, 2015). Incivil
behavior includes name-calling, a condescending tone, public criticism, gossiping
and spreading rumors.
The Hippocratic Oath and the Universal Declaration of Human Rights are two
important ethical frameworks that guide nurses' actions. Both posit that all humans
have fundamental rights, including the right to life, health and privacy. In addition,nurses must comply with the principles of nonmalfeasance, sanctity of human lifeand proportionality when making clinical decisions.

Budget Negotiations
A healthy environment requires clean air, stable climate, adequate water, safe foodand sanitation, health-supportive cities and rural environments, and preservednature. It also demands a sustainable economy, responsible use of resources and athriving workforce. This means avoiding waste, limiting the use of chemicals, andusing sound financial practices. Budget negotiations can be a stressful time, butthere are ways to make them more manageable.
One example is to involve the parties in budget preparation at a very early stage,
allowing them to be involved in bottom-up negotiations with each other and thedepartmental managers who will submit proposals for inclusion in the consolidated
budget. This will help to nurs fpx 6011 assessment 1 diabetes patient concept map

Another good practice is to avoid partisan attacks on each other and to limit thescope of the debate to the specific issues at hand. This will ensure that theparticipants are focused on reaching a fair and reasonable outcome. In the case of
the Social Security reform commission, three months of disorganized circularconversations were replaced with a successful bipartisan solution by the simple actof changing from arguing talking points to building a win-win deal.

Communication
The community resources that contribute to healthful environments include
recreational opportunities and safe spaces for physical activity. These resources
include parks, waterways, and tree-lined walks that provide opportunities foroutdoor exercise and social interaction. In addition, these resources may offer
mental and emotional well-being by offering a sense of place and belonging.
One of the most important factors in establishing healthy nursing environment iseffective communication. Nurses need to communicate openly and clearly with eachother in order to manage their tasks efficiently and effectively. Additionally, nurses
must establish nurs fpx 6017 assessment 1 curriculum overview framework andanalysis kp relationships and respect each other’s work (Abdollahzadeh et al., 2017).
Incivility is a common problem that nurses face in their work environment. Thisbehavior includes rude behaviors such as name calling, condescending tone, andgossiping as well as passing sarcastic remarks. Such behavior affects the nurses
negatively, especially when they carry it into their personal lives (Lachman, 2014).
To avoid this type of incivility, a person-centred culture must be established in theworkplace. Additionally, nurses must adopt a code of ethics and zero tolerance
policy for any act of incivility.

Community Resources
Community resources refer to different places or things that are meant to promote
the well-being and goodwill of community members. They include everything from
hospitals to libraries to community centers. These can be operated by privatecompanies, non-profit organizations or even individuals. They can also be financed invarious ways, from being completely funded by the community to being partially or
fully funded by government grants.
Using these community resources in the classroom helps students understand howsociety functions and develops a sense of responsibility among them.

and how to work with a diverse group of people.
In addition to schools and other educational facilities, community resources can also
include religious and cultural organizations such as churches or synagogues. Thesecan serve a range of more abstract needs that aren’t necessarily directly related tothe community, such as socialization and belongingness. In addition, they canprovide access to health care services and support for individuals with special needs
or disabilities.

Institutional Conflict
Institutional conflicts of interest occur when financial relationships with externalentities pose risks of undue influence over decisions that are relevant to an
institution’s primary research, educational or patient care mission. These
relationships include financial holdings in companies, research funding, consulting orhonoraria payments and board positions with external entities.
These relationships may threaten the objectivity of decision-making and the integrityof research with human participants. They also threaten the credibility of an
institution’s primary research, education and patient care mission activities.
However, unlike individual conflicts of interest, institutional conflicts do notnecessarily constitute misconduct or bias.
As a result, they are more difficult to review and address than individual conflicts ofinterest. Moreover, since institutional officials do not bha fpx 4008 assessment 2
financial statement analysis to benefit personally from the secondary interests, they
may rationalize their involvement as serving the institution’s primary mission.
Consequently, many reports of institutional conflicts have focused on only prominentand usually egregious cases of conflicting activities. The committee recommends
that a standing board committee be established to review the University’s own
financial relationships and those of senior officials in order to identify potential
institutional conflicts of interest. Management plans should address the nature of theconflict, any actual or perceived risk to the University’s reputation, and steps tomitigate the impact of the conflict on the primary mission.
