Health Care

Nowadays, most things affect to the health care with some different ways. Language barrier also

influences delivery of health care as the inability to comprehend instructions from health care providers

diminishes people’s abilities to receive preventative and curative care. Ethnic and personal beliefs also

influence the delivery of health care as some people prefer home rem dies to hospital medication.

Geographical factors also influence access to health care as people in rural areas encounter barriers such

as poor transportation, which impede access to hospitals. Conversely, nursing practice is influenced by

factors such as nurses’ work environment and advancement opportunities and legislation (Ellerbe &

Regen, 2012). This paper will examine such legislation, discussing its impact on nursing practice. Health

Care Reform In 2010, President Obama ratified the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act (PPACA).

The purpose of the federal statute is to provide a regulatory overhaul of America’s health care system by

enhancing access to health care by increasing the quality and affordability of health coverage, thereby

reducing the price of health care for Americans (Ellerbe & Regen, 2012). ... These gaps are the primary

deterrents to the effective delivery of health care for all in the US. With regard to access to care

provision, the Act eliminates discrimination practices that hamper access to health coverage (Ridge,

2011). The Act also enhances funding for care delivery programs and locations, including nurse-managed
health clinics. On the quality of care, the Act requires all care givers to ensure that their care is effective,

patient-centered, safe, equitable, efficient and timely. Consequently, the Act promotes support systems

aimed at the improvement of care and the work environment, for instance, by creating opportunities for

enhanced nursing leadership and research (Ellerbe & Regen, 2012). The Act builds on the provisions of

the Public Health Service Act, which offers federal backing for nursing development and education. On

the other hand, with regard to cost of care, the Act provides for consumer protections to ensure basic

health coverage to all Americans and legal residents. Educational and Practice Consideration for Nursing

The discipline of nursing must address various practice and educational consideration to keep up with

the demands of the Affordable Care Act. Firstly, nursing practice should be to the full extent of training

and education. This is because the core of PPACA is the provision of quality care by care givers who have

sufficient training and education to meet health care service demands. In addition, it is essential for all

nurses to attain higher educational levels and intense training through an enhanced educational system,

which advocates flawless academic development.
