Expanding the Training of Nurse Practitioners to Include More Procedures: A strategy to solve Post-Affordable Care Act Physician Shortages

This is to be a research paper supporting the expansion of nurse practitioner training to include more procedures that they may perform at bedside and in specialty procedure areas such as interventional radiology. The reason behind this expansion in training is to be able to meet the increased patient population since the enactment of the Affordable Care Act which has led to a physician shortage, especially in the procedural specialty.

3:Terrorists Groups

Based on this week’s reading and lesson notes, evaluate the arguments and evidence that terrorist groups are likely or unlikely to use CBRN weapon. In particular, what do you think are the prospects for al Qaeda and/or other sub-state actors to acquire and use a CBRN weapon in a foreign country? In the United States? Why or why not?
