IFSM 201 Professional Memo
Before you begin this assignment, be sure you have read the Small Merchant Guide to Safe
Payments documentation from the Payment Card Industry Data Security Standards (PCI DSS)
organization. PCI Data Security Standards are established to protect payment account data
throughout the payment lifecycle, and to protect individuals and entities from the criminals who
attempt to steal sensitive data. The PCI Data Security Standard (PCI DSS) applies to all entities
that store, process, and/or transmit cardholder data, including merchants, service providers, and
financial institutions.
Purpose of this Assignment
You work as an Information Technology Consultant for the Greater Washington Risk Associates
(GWRA) and have been asked to write a professional memo to one of your clients as a follow-up
to their recent risk assessment (RA). GWRA specializes in enterprise risk management for state
agencies and municipalities. The county of Anne Arundel, Maryland (the client) hired GWRA to
conduct a risk assessment of Odenton, Maryland (a community within the Anne Arundel
County), with a focus on business operations within the municipality.
This assignment specifically addresses the following course outcome to enable you to:
• Identify ethical, security, and privacy considerations in conducting data and information
analysis and selecting and using information technology.
Assignment
Your supervisor has asked that the memo focus on Odenton’s information systems, and
specifically, securing the processes for payments of services. Currently, the Odenton Township
offices accept cash or credit card payment for the services of sanitation (sewer and refuse),
water, and property taxes. Residents can pay either in-person at township offices or over the
phone with a major credit card (American Express, Discover, MasterCard and Visa). Over the
phone payment involves with speaking to an employee and giving the credit card information.
Once payment is received, the Accounting Department is responsible for manually entering it
into the township database system and making daily deposits to the bank.
The purpose of the professional memo is to identify a minimum of three current controls
(e.g., tools, practices, policies) in Odenton Township (either a control specific to Odenton
Township or a control provided by Anne Arundel county) that can be considered best
practices in safe payment/data protection. Furthermore, beyond what measures are
currently in place, you should highlight the need to focus on insider threats and provide a
minimum of three additional recommendations. Below are the findings from the Risk
Assessment:
• The IT department for Anne Arundel County requires strong passwords for users to
access and use information systems.

The Prevalence of Pressure Ulcer Among The Elderly And Decreased Mobility Patients in The Hospitals And Healthcare Facilities.
Abstract
Hospital-acquired pressure ulcers remain to be amongst the continuous and persistent healthcare issues that are affecting the delivery of quality healthcare services. Pressure ulcers or pressure sores or bedsores refer to the injuries of the skin and the underlying tissues that are mainly caused by the prolonged pressure on the skin. According to the National Health Service, these conditions are common in individuals who are bedridden or are sitting on wheelchairs and chairs for an extended period. The disease occurs on the body parts that are commonly exposed to the pressure for example the spine, hips, elbows, and heels. The issue of pressure ulcers is a major public health concern since it consumes large sums of money to address the problem (Grey et al., 2016). On average, a client is being charged $ 37,800 for extreme cases of pressure ulcers.
This study aims to implement certain method to prevent pressure ulcers among the elderly above 60 years and decreased mobility patients in the hospital and healthcare facilities through the use of Braden scale, applying mepilex foam dressing to bony prominence areas, and repositioning. Patients especially elderly adults are experiencing lengthy hospital stays and this is exposing them to the high risk of pressure ulcers. According to Rondinelli et al (2018), several factors are linked to pressure ulcers. These multi-factorial factors involve hormonal changes, impairment of blood perfusion, inflammation, degenerative changes, and reduction in the effectiveness of immunity. The majority of elderly patients suffer from frailty and other chronic diseases that reduce their ability to engage in daily activities (ADLs) and even experiences limited movements. This increases their level of exposure to hospital-acquired pressure injury (HAPI). This is a health concern that requires the development of effective evidence-based interventions to help in the creation of awareness concerning therapy and preventive approaches such as the application of the Braden Scale to help in detecting the risks of adult patients. It is also important to design approaches that are helpful in the protection of the bony regions using pads and repositioning of the patients after every 2 hours (Lyder & Ayello, 2018).
Many healthcare facilities have attempted to design effective evidence-based interventions but the issue of healthcare-acquired pressure ulcers continued to persist. Despite the increased efforts to implement evidence-based procedures to guide the nurses in reducing the pressure ulcers issue within the acute care facilities, the number of reported cases of pressure ulcers continues to be a major issue (Grey et al., 2016). The majority of healthcare facilities are fa.

WGU’s mission is to “change lives for the better by creating pathways to opportunity.” Teachers College Way is to “change lives for the better by catalyzing Next-Gen teaching, learning, and leading across the education spectrum.
Next-Gen Candidates
A Next-Gen candidate is transformative in teaching, learning, and leading across the education spectrum. Teachers College strives to foster organizational systems and culture that allow candidates, faculty, and staff to do their life’s best work. Next-generation education begins with the core belief that the art and science of teaching, learning, and leading in education must continually evolve, becoming better and better with each subsequent generation. Catalyzing Next-Gen teaching, learning, and leading requires experience in a transformative educational environment.
Healthy Learning
Teachers College endeavors to offer a healthy learning environment that supports the professional growth and development of each Next-Gen candidate and expands the professional opportunities for each Next-Gen graduate. The development of Professional Dispositions and Ethics for Next-Gen candidates strengthens the educational experience and conveys the Teachers College’s commitment to impactful teaching, learning, and leading to the greater professional community.
A vital aspect of transforming Professional Dispositions and Ethics is the integration of restorative practices. Next-Gen candidates are empowered to use effective, evidence-based best practices to create healthy learning environments where all learners rise and thrive. Teachers College provides candidates with a safe educational environment - a place where candidates can develop and strengthen their academic, physical, psychological, ethical, and social understandings (learn more about
Healthy Learning). Our Professional Dispositions and Ethics at WGU is supported by the five primary critical healthy-learning focus areas that are key drivers of learner academic, professional, and personal success. These five pillars, while being powerful concepts individually, gain collective strength and create a thriving, healthy learning environment, where all individuals are equipped to fully embody and practice Teachers College Professional Disposition and Ethics.
The five pillars of Healthy Learning are:
1. Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion (DE&I)
2. Social-Emotional Learning (SEL)
3. Character Education

Cybersecurity professional experts can utilize guarded man-made consciousness (simulated intelligence) to distinguish or stop cyberattacks.

Offensive AI incorporates profound fakes, bogus pictures, personas, and recordings that convincingly portray individuals or things that never occurred or don't exist. Noxious entertainers can utilize ill-disposed AI to fool machines into breaking down by giving them mistaken information. Cybersecurity professionals can utilize cautious computer-based intelligence to recognize and prevent hostile man-made intelligence from estimating, testing, and figuring out how the framework or organization's capabilities. Defensive AI can reinforce calculations, making them more challenging to break. Network protection analysts can direct more extreme weakness tests on AI models.

Principles of Scientific Management, Frederick Winslow Taylor (1911)
Introduction
PRESIDENT ROOSEVELT, in his address to the Governors at the White House,
prophetically remarked that “The conservation of our national resources is only preliminary to
the larger question of national efficiency.”
The whole country at once recognized the importance of conserving our material
resources and a large movement has been started which will be effective in accomplishing this
object. As yet, however, we have but vaguely appreciated the importance of “the larger question
of increasing our national efficiency.”
We can see our forests vanishing, our water-powers going to waste, our soil being carried
by floods into the sea; and the end of our coal and our iron is in sight. But our larger wastes of
human effort, which go on every day through such of our acts as are blundering, ill-directed; or
inefficient, and which Mr. Roosevelt refers to as a lack of “national efficiency,” are less visible,
less tangible, and are but vaguely appreciated.
We can see and feel the waste of material things. Awkward, inefficient, or ill-directed
movements of men, however, leave nothing visible or tangible behind them. Their appreciation
calls for an act of memory, an effort of the imagination. And for this reason, even though our
daily loss from this source is greater than from our waste of material things, the one has stirred
us deeply, while the other has moved us but little.
As yet there has been no public agitation for “greater national efficiency,” no meetings
have been called to consider how this is to be brought about. And still there are signs that the
need for greater efficiency is widely felt.
The search for better, for more competent men, from the presidents of our great
companies down to our household servants, was never more vigorous than it is now. And more
than ever before is the demand for competent men in excess of the supply.
What we are all looking for, however, is the readymade, competent man; the man whom
some one else has trained. It is only when we fully realize that our duty, as well as our
opportunity, lies in systematically cooperating to train and to make this competent man, instead
of in hunting for a man whom some one else has trained, that we shall be on the road to national
efficiency.
In the past the prevailing idea has been well expressed in the saying that “Captains of
industry are born, not made”; and the theory has been that if one could get the right man,
methods could be safely left to him. In the future it will be appreciated that our leaders must be
trained right as well as born right, and that no great man can (with the old system of personal
management) hope to compete with a number of ordinary men who have been properly
organized so as efficiently to cooperate.
In the past the man has been first; in the future the system must be first. This in no sense,

Current and developing models of integrated behavioral health service delivery have
proven successful for the general population; however, these approaches may not
sufficiently address the unique needs of individuals living in rural and remote areas. For
all communities to benefit from the opportunities that the current trend toward inte-
gration has provided, it is imperative that cultural and contextual factors be considered
determining features in care delivery. Rural integrated primary care practice requires
specific training, expertise, and adjustments to service delivery and intervention to best
meet the needs of rural and underserved communities. In this commentary, the authors
present trends in integrated behavioral health service delivery in rural integrated
primary care settings. Flexible and creative strategies are proposed to promote in-
creased access to integrated behavioral health services, while simultaneously address-
ing patient care needs that arise as a result of the barriers to treatment that are prevalent
in rural communities.
Keywords: integrated behavioral health, integrated primary care, rural, rural health
The need for integrated health care is well
documented. Nearly 70% of primary care ap-
pointments include issues associated with psy-
chosocial factors (Gatchel & Oordt, 2003).
Many patients would prefer to receive behav-
ioral health services in their primary care pro-
vider’s office, as opposed to a specialty mental
health setting (Lang, 2005). Patients in primary
care offices are also more likely to follow
through with a behavioral health referral when
that service is provided in the same office (Slay
& McCleod, 1997). Overall, integrated behav-
ioral health services have been shown to suc-
cessfully enhance health care services and yield
improvements in medical and behavioral health
conditions (Kwan & Nease, 2013).
Integrated care models may be especially im-
pactful in areas where access to specialty care is
limited, such as rural communities. However, a
discussion of the adjustments warranted when
developing integrated behavioral health ser-
vices in rural practice settings is all but absent in
the literature. Significant treatment needs in ru-
ral areas, combined with poor availability of
referral-based services in rural communities, re-
quire effective integrated primary care (IPC) to
be provided in a flexible, patient-tailored, and
community-focused manner. In this paper, we
aim to outline the special considerations neces-
sary for conducting IPC in rural communities
wherein behavioral health providers (BHPs)
may struggle to balance in.

Primary Care Interventions for Prevention and Cessation of Tobacco Use
in Children and Adolescents
US Preventive Services Task Force Recommendation Statement
US Preventive Services Task Force
Summary of Recommendations
The USPSTF recommends that primary care clinicians provide interventions, including education or
brief counseling, to prevent initiation of tobacco use among school-aged children and adolescents. B
The USPSTF concludes that the current evidence is insufficient to assess the balance of benefits and
harms of primary care–feasible interventions for the cessation of tobacco use among school-aged
children and adolescents.
I
See the Figure for a more detailed summary of the recommendation for clinicians. See the Practice Considerations section for more information on effective
interventions to prevent initiation of tobacco use and for suggestions for practice regarding the I statement. USPSTF indicates US Preventive Services Task Force.
IMPORTANCE Tobacco use is the leading cause of preventable death in the US. An estimated
annual 480 000 deaths are attributable to tobacco use in adults, including from secondhand
smoke. It is estimated that every day about 1600 youth aged 12 to 17 years smoke their first
cigarette and that about 5.6 million adolescents alive today will die prematurely from a
smoking-related illness. Although conventional cigarette use has gradually declined among
children in the US since the late 1990s, tobacco use via electronic cigarettes (e-cigarettes) is
quickly rising and is now more common among youth than cigarette smoking. e-Cigarette
products usually contain nicotine, which is addictive, raising concerns about e-cigarette use
and nicotine addiction in children. Exposure to nicotine during adolescence can harm the
developing brain, which may affect brain function and cognition, attention, and mood; thus,
minimizing nicotine exposure from any tobacco product in youth is important.
OBJECTIVE To update its 2013 recommendation, the USPSTF commissioned a review of the
evidence on the benefits and harms of primary care interventions for tobacco use prevention
and cessation in children and adolescents. The current systematic review newly included
e-cigarettes as a tobacco product.
POPULATION This recommendation applies to school-aged children and adolescents younger
than 18 years.
EVIDENCE ASSESSMENT The USPSTF concludes with moderate certainty that primary
care–feasible behavioral interventions, including education or brief counseling, to prevent
tobacco use in school-aged children and adolescents have a moderate net benefit. The
USPSTF concludes that there is insufficient evidence to determine the balance of benefits
and harms of primary care interventions for tobacco cessation among school-aged children
and adolescents who already smoke, because of a lack of adequately powered studies on
behavioral counseling interventions and a lack of studies on medications.
RECOMMENDATION The USPSTF recommends that.

Introduction
As you begin to consider the assessment, it would be an excellent choice to complete the Breach of Protected Health Information (PHI) activity. The activity will support your success with the assessment by creating the opportunity for you to test your knowledge of potential privacy, security, and confidentiality violations of protected health information. The activity is not graded and counts towards course engagement.
Health professionals today are increasingly accountable for the use of protected health information (PHI). Various government and regulatory agencies promote and support privacy and security through a variety of activities. Examples include:
· Meaningful use of electronic health records (EHR).
· Provision of EHR incentive programs through Medicare and Medicaid.
· Enforcement of the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA) rules.
· Release of educational resources and tools to help providers and hospitals address privacy, security, and confidentiality risks in their practices.
Technological advances, such as the use of social media platforms and applications for patient progress tracking and communication, have provided more access to health information and improved communication between care providers and patients.
At the same time, advances such as these have resulted in more risk for protecting PHI. Nurses typically receive annual training on protecting patient information in their everyday practice. This training usually emphasizes privacy, security, and confidentiality best practices such as:
· Keeping passwords secure.
· Logging out of public computers.
· Sharing patient information only with those directly providing care or who have been granted permission to receive this information.
Today, one of the major risks associated with privacy and confidentiality of patient identity and data relates to social media. Many nurses and other health care providers place themselves at risk when they use social media or other electronic communication systems inappropriately. For example, a Texas nurse was recently terminated for posting patient vaccination information on Facebook. In another case, a New York nurse was terminated for posting an insensitive emergency department photo on her Instagram account.
Health care providers today must develop their skills in mitigating risks to their patients and themselves related to patient information. At the same time, they need to be able distinguish between effective and ineffective uses of social media in health care.
This assessment will require you to develop a staff update for the interprofessional team to encourage team members to protect the privacy, confidentiality, and security of patient information.

Polk County DFCS
Services Offered:
DFCS offers a variety of services for the children and parents which include:
Obverse behavioral aids
Parenting aids
Free day care/after school
Adoption
Foster Care
Counseling and many other services to help the needs of families.
Mission of DFCS:
The mission of DFCS is to access the well being and permanency of children. We strive to build stronger families and communities.
Clientele or Population Served:
There is no certain criteria or population served as anything can happen at any moment where your child may potentially have to be removed from your home. Often, it is families with low incomes which can sometimes result to not having the resources to provide for their children.
Job Activities/Professional Roles:
As a social worker I’m always accessing and making sure the children are safe in their home.
Required to see children and families once a month but she sees her families many times throughout the month to build a relationship with them by attending events they me involved in.
The social worker I interviewed is in the foster care unit so her main purpose is finding permanent placement for the children if they unfortunately will not be reunited with their biological parents.
Working close with parents to ensure they complete their case plans in order to get their children back in their home.
Why Social Work?
In high school and while in college, she mainly worked in retail positions. She always knew that she wanted to be a social worker or counselor. She has a passion to help people in need as well as a love of working with kids. It is a rewarding profession once a child/children are in their forever homes or reunited with their families.
Opportunities for Advancement/Professional Development:
There are many chances in moving up in this profession. There’s many different roles you can indulge in but still be a help to the families as well as the community. For example, becoming a Supervisor, Trainer, Administrator, etc.
For professional development, all staff have opportunities to learn new/updated rules/regulations as it refers to the job and what they do daily. For example, there would be new training on ethics, HIPAA, certain protocols, court hearings, etc.)
She also asks her supervisor/directors for critique often to see how she can be more effective in her career.
Self Care:
A couple of strategies she learned is first to UNPLUG!
When you get home, unplug from work; unplug from your work your devices (unless you are on-call).
Do not check emails, calls, texts, etc. it is very hard to do, but that is how you start to experience burn out if you are constantly on the move and never just taking a break.
If she is not on call once she gets home, she turns her phone off (weekends as well) You have to set boundaries or people will take advantage of you and your time. Spend time with your friends, family, do what you like to do in order to have a balance.

Language Analysis Draft
Writing conventions are not always the same in every field of study. Because of this, it is important to become aware of the common language and grammar choices commonly followed in your field of study. This will help understand and learn more about scholarly writing as readers and writers. The article “Investigating changes in salivary microbiota due to dental treatment: A metagenomic analysis study for forensic purposes”, depicts some of the features found in the field of Forensic Science.
In accordance with the Swales and Feak (2012) description of level of formality, the language is formal. First person pronouns such as “I or we” are limited and used in the abstract to explain the work conducted by the researchers in collaboration. For instance, “In the present study, we compared the microbiota compositions present in the saliva of individuals with active dental caries before and after treatment from a forensic and clinical perspective using an approach based on the sequencing of all the variable regions (V1-V9) of the bacterial 16S rRNA gene” (Gül, F., Karadayı, S., Yurdabakan, Z., Özbek, T., & Karadayı, B., 2022). However, the “we” pronoun is more commonly observed than the “I” pronoun to show collective efforts made by the writers. Pronouns in the field of Forensic Science are either entirely omitted or confined to specific sections of the paper such as the abstract, discussion, or conclusion. This may be observed to refer to the group of researchers while methods and results mainly focus on the research and not the researchers. In addition, contractions, vague phrases, “you” pronoun, and phrasal verbs are not used as they would less formal, distract the audience, and cause confusion while reading. Questions were not included in this article either indirectly, directly, or as a part of Move 3. However, questions in Forensics if present, are addressed either indirectly or in the form of research questions. Another language feature is the use of adverbs. Adverbs are positioned in the middle of the sentence to maintain formality and flow of context for example, “Methods that are based on identifying polymorphisms in the human DNA are frequently used to solve forensic cases” (Gül et al., 2022). They are also used as split infinitives between “to” and the verb such as in the example, “Thus, using this technique makes it possible to comprehensively examine the composition of microbial communities, especially at the species level, and examine the differences between the salivary microbial flora of a healthy oral cavity and that of an oral cavity having caries” (Gül et al., 2022). Although split infinitives are used a lot, it depends on the context and how the authors’ wish to deliver their message. Moreover, the use of “maybe language” is used to open an idea of a result or opinion for discussion and other possibilities of reasoning.
Forensic science is a fie.

CONCEPTUALIZATIONS OF
GOOD CITIZENSHIP AND
POLITICAL PARTICIPATION
Elizabeth Theiss-Morse
Theorists have variously defined what it means to be a good citizen. But how do citizens
themselves views their responsibilities? And is there any relationship between a person's
view of citizenship and his or her political participation? This paper uses a combination of
methods to explore these issues. A Q method study reveals four citizenship perspectives
that provide evidence for striking differences in how people define the participatory re-
sponsibilities of a good citizen. An exploratory survey analysis finds that the four citizen-
ship perspectives are significantly related to political behavior, even when socioeconomic
status and attitudinal variables related to participation are controlled. While adding to
our understanding of participation, these findings also underscore the importance of in-
vestigating the conceptualizations of citizens to gain more complete understandings of
how political systems work.
Most studies of good citizenship fall into two categories: pedagogical
works on the best means of teaching good citizenship 1 and theoretical
works on its meaning. There are few empirical studies that deal even tan-
gentially with good citizenship, and these usually begin with an idealized
view of "the good citizen" and find that citizens fall far short of this stan-
dard.2 Largely neglected are citizens' own conceptualizations of good citi-
zenship; that is, what do people themselves think it means to be a good
citizen?
This paper attempts to answer "What is good citizenship?" from the per-
spective of citizens, and then tests whether citizenship conceptualizations
are related to participatory behavior. I begin with a brief overview of the
few studies that examine citizens' conceptualizations of good citizenship.
Then I discuss at some length the combination of methods used in this

PreparationThoroughly research the issues using the Internet and t.docx
Preparation
Thoroughly research the issues using the Internet and the resources provided in What You Need to Know. You may need to conduct additional research to support your analysis. You must use a minimum of three scholarly resources outside of the course text in this assignment.
As you can see by your research, there is a lot going on behind the scenes in this scenario. However, it is clear that the Captain of the USS
Theodore Roosevelt was facing a difficult ethical situation and tried to find the best way to communicate his concerns. There are many questions that likely come to mind, such as:
· What was the dilemma facing the Captain? How might he have weighed his decision?
· Should the Captain have sent the message? Why or why not?
· Was the content of the communication appropriate, taking into consideration the recipient(s) of the letter? Did he distribute the letter for maximum effect?
· What should he have done differently?
· Did the Captain violate Navy ethical guidelines? Are his actions at odds with communication guidelines? Is that how he should be judged?
· Was his punishment justified?
· How do you think his crew felt? Is that relevant?
Also carefully read the grading criteria in the Communication, Ethics, and a Command Decision Scoring Guide to ensure you understand all of the requirements for success.Planning
The time it takes to complete an assignment can vary greatly. But it often takes longer than we think to explore the scope of a task, research it, write a draft, and then come back and revise it. Consider the following as rough guideposts for setting aside the time you need to do your work. You will want to adjust these as you learn more about your own pace and working style.
· Research and reading: 2 hours.
· Interactive activities: 30 minutes.
· Writing: 6 hours.
· Revising: 2 hours.Instructions
Consider the Captain's decision to send the letter, the manner in which the letter was sent, and the recipient(s) of the letter. Complete both parts of this assignment in a single Word document.Part 1: Analyze the Scenario
· Analyze the ethical decision that the Captain faced as it relates to how he communicated his plea and in the context of his position. Consider the sender, receiver, message, and channel.
· Analyze the primary failures and successes of the Captain's communication strategy. Make sure to consider how the letter was distributed, the Captain's possible intent, and the content of the letter.
· If this situation had occurred in the private sector and not the military, would the outcomes have been similar or different? Defend your reasoning. Part 2: Write a Communication
Imagine that you were the commanding officer of another naval ship who had followed this sequence of events closely. Your ship's Public Affairs Officer reports to you and is responsible for many of the ship's external communications, and you are anxious to share your lessons learned from the USS
Theodore Rooseve.

Introduction
PRESIDENT ROOSEVELT, in his address to the Governors at the White House,
prophetically remarked that “The conservation of our national resources is only preliminary to
the larger question of national efficiency.”
The whole country at once recognized the importance of conserving our material
resources and a large movement has been started which will be effective in accomplishing this
object. As yet, however, we have but vaguely appreciated the importance of “the larger question
of increasing our national efficiency.”
We can see our forests vanishing, our water-powers going to waste, our soil being carried
by floods into the sea; and the end of our coal and our iron is in sight. But our larger wastes of
human effort, which go on every day through such of our acts as are blundering, ill-directed; or
inefficient, and which Mr. Roosevelt refers to as a lack of “national efficiency,” are less visible,
less tangible, and are but vaguely appreciated.
We can see and feel the waste of material things. Awkward, inefficient, or ill-directed
movements of men, however, leave nothing visible or tangible behind them. Their appreciation
calls for an act of memory, an effort of the imagination. And for this reason, even though our
daily loss from this source is greater than from our waste of material things, the one has stirred
us deeply, while the other has moved us but little.
As yet there has been no public agitation for “greater national efficiency,” no meetings
have been called to consider how this is to be brought about. And still there are signs that the
need for greater efficiency is widely felt.
The search for better, for more competent men, from the presidents of our great
companies down to our household servants, was never more vigorous than it is now. And more
than ever before is the demand for competent men in excess of the supply.
What we are all looking for, however, is the readymade, competent man; the man whom
some one else has trained. It is only when we fully realize that our duty, as well as our
opportunity, lies in systematically cooperating to train and to make this competent man, instead
of in hunting for a man whom some one else has trained, that we shall be on the road to national
efficiency.
In the past the prevailing idea has been well expressed in the saying that “Captains of
industry are born, not made”; and the theory has been that if one could get the right man,
methods could be safely left to him. In the future it will be appreciated that our leaders must be
trained right as well as born right, and that no great man can (with the old system of personal
management) hope to compete with a number of ordinary men who have been properly
organized so as efficiently to cooperate.
In the past the man has been first; in the future the system must be first. This in no sense,

Current and developing models of integrated behavioral health service delivery have
proven successful for the general population; however, these approaches may not
sufficiently address the unique needs of individuals living in rural and remote areas. For
all communities to benefit from the opportunities that the current trend toward inte-
gration has provided, it is imperative that cultural and contextual factors be considered
determining features in care delivery. Rural integrated primary care practice requires
specific training, expertise, and adjustments to service delivery and intervention to best
meet the needs of rural and underserved communities. In this commentary, the authors
present trends in integrated behavioral health service delivery in rural integrated
primary care settings. Flexible and creative strategies are proposed to promote in-
creased access to integrated behavioral health services, while simultaneously address-
ing patient care needs that arise as a result of the barriers to treatment that are prevalent
in rural communities.
Keywords: integrated behavioral health, integrated primary care, rural, rural health
The need for integrated health care is well
documented. Nearly 70% of primary care ap-
pointments include issues associated with psy-
chosocial factors (Gatchel & Oordt, 2003).
Many patients would prefer to receive behav-
ioral health services in their primary care pro-
vider’s office, as opposed to a specialty mental
health setting (Lang, 2005). Patients in primary
care offices are also more likely to follow
through with a behavioral health referral when
that service is provided in the same office (Slay
& McCleod, 1997). Overall, integrated behav-
ioral health services have been shown to suc-
cessfully enhance health care services and yield
improvements in medical and behavioral health
conditions (Kwan & Nease, 2013).
Integrated care models may be especially im-
pactful in areas where access to specialty care is
limited, such as rural communities. However, a
discussion of the adjustments warranted when
developing integrated behavioral health ser-
vices in rural practice settings is all but absent in
the literature. Significant treatment needs in ru-
ral areas, combined with poor availability of
referral-based services in rural communities, re-
quire effective integrated primary care (IPC) to
be provided in a flexible, patient-tailored, and
community-focused manner. In this paper, we
aim to outline the special considerations neces-
sary for conducting IPC in rural communities
wherein behavioral health providers (BHPs)
may struggle to balance in.

Primary Care Interventions for Prevention and Cessation of Tobacco Use
in Children and Adolescents
US Preventive Services Task Force Recommendation Statement
US Preventive Services Task Force
Summary of Recommendations
The USPSTF recommends that primary care clinicians provide interventions, including education or
brief counseling, to prevent initiation of tobacco use among school-aged children and adolescents. B
The USPSTF concludes that the current evidence is insufficient to assess the balance of benefits and
harms of primary care–feasible interventions for the cessation of tobacco use among school-aged
children and adolescents.
I
See the Figure for a more detailed summary of the recommendation for clinicians. See the Practice Considerations section for more information on effective
interventions to prevent initiation of tobacco use and for suggestions for practice regarding the I statement. USPSTF indicates US Preventive Services Task Force.
IMPORTANCE Tobacco use is the leading cause of preventable death in the US. An estimated
annual 480 000 deaths are attributable to tobacco use in adults, including from secondhand
smoke. It is estimated that every day about 1600 youth aged 12 to 17 years smoke their first
cigarette and that about 5.6 million adolescents alive today will die prematurely from a
smoking-related illness. Although conventional cigarette use has gradually declined among
children in the US since the late 1990s, tobacco use via electronic cigarettes (e-cigarettes) is
quickly rising and is now more common among youth than cigarette smoking. e-Cigarette
products usually contain nicotine, which is addictive, raising concerns about e-cigarette use
and nicotine addiction in children. Exposure to nicotine during adolescence can harm the
developing brain, which may affect brain function and cognition, attention, and mood; thus,
minimizing nicotine exposure from any tobacco product in youth is important.
OBJECTIVE To update its 2013 recommendation, the USPSTF commissioned a review of the
evidence on the benefits and harms of primary care interventions for tobacco use prevention
and cessation in children and adolescents. The current systematic review newly included
e-cigarettes as a tobacco product.
POPULATION This recommendation applies to school-aged children and adolescents younger
than 18 years.
EVIDENCE ASSESSMENT The USPSTF concludes with moderate certainty that primary
care–feasible behavioral interventions, including education or brief counseling, to prevent
tobacco use in school-aged children and adolescents have a moderate net benefit. The
USPSTF concludes that there is insufficient evidence to determine the balance of benefits
and harms of primary care interventions for tobacco cessation among school-aged children
and adolescents who already smoke, because of a lack of adequately powered studies on
behavioral counseling interventions and a lack of studies on medications.
RECOMMENDATION The USPSTF recommends that.

-Robert E. Quinn, ME Tracy Collegiate Professor of
OBHRM, University of Michigan Business School
"I was personally and professionally inspired by this book-and
I'm not easily impressed. In the fast-paced world of IT, the success
of our systems, and our business, depends on crucial conversations
we have every day. Unfortunately, because our environment is so
technical, far too often we forget about the 'human systems' that
make or break us. These skills are the missing foundation piece."

"The book prescribes, with structure and wit, a way to improve on
the most fundamental element of organizational learning and
growth-honest, unencumbered dialogue between individuals.
There are one or two of the many leadership/management

Introduction
As you begin to consider the assessment, it would be an excellent choice to complete the Breach of Protected Health Information (PHI) activity. The activity will support your success with the assessment by creating the opportunity for you to test your knowledge of potential privacy, security, and confidentiality violations of protected health information. The activity is not graded and counts towards course engagement.
Health professionals today are increasingly accountable for the use of protected health information (PHI). Various government and regulatory agencies promote and support privacy and security through a variety of activities. Examples include:
· Meaningful use of electronic health records (EHR).
· Provision of EHR incentive programs through Medicare and Medicaid.
· Enforcement of the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA) rules.
· Release of educational resources and tools to help providers and hospitals address privacy, security, and confidentiality risks in their practices.
Technological advances, such as the use of social media platforms and applications for patient progress tracking and communication, have provided more access to health information and improved communication between care providers and patients.
At the same time, advances such as these have resulted in more risk for protecting PHI. Nurses typically receive annual training on protecting patient information in their everyday practice. This training usually emphasizes privacy, security, and confidentiality best practices such as:
· Keeping passwords secure.
· Logging out of public computers.
· Sharing patient information only with those directly providing care or who have been granted permission to receive this information.
Today, one of the major risks associated with privacy and confidentiality of patient identity and data relates to social media. Many nurses and other health care providers place themselves at risk when they use social media or other electronic communication systems inappropriately. For example, a Texas nurse was recently terminated for posting patient vaccination information on Facebook. In another case, a New York nurse was terminated for posting an insensitive emergency department photo on her Instagram account.
Health care providers today must develop their skills in mitigating risks to their patients and themselves related to patient information. At the same time, they need to be able distinguish between effective and ineffective uses of social media in health care.
This assessment will require you to develop a staff update for the interprofessional team to encourage team members to protect the privacy, confidentiality, and security of patient information.

Polk County DFCS Services OfferedDFCS offers a vari.docx
Polk County DFCS
Services Offered:
DFCS offers a variety of services for the children and parents which include:
Obverse behavioral aids
Parenting aids
Free day care/after school
Adoption
Foster Care
Counseling and many other services to help the needs of families.
Mission of DFCS:
The mission of DFCS is to access the well being and permanency of children. We strive to build stronger families and communities.
Clientele or Population Served:
There is no certain criteria or population served as anything can happen at any moment where your child may potentially have to be removed from your home. Often, it is families with low incomes which can sometimes result to not having the resources to provide for their children.
Job Activities/Professional Roles:
As a social worker I’m always accessing and making sure the children are safe in their home.
Required to see children and families once a month but she sees her families many times throughout the month to build a relationship with them by attending events they me involved in.
The social worker I interviewed is in the foster care unit so her main purpose is finding permanent placement for the children if they unfortunately will not be reunited with their biological parents.
Working close with parents to ensure they complete their case plans in order to get their children back in their home.
Why Social Work?
In high school and while in college, she mainly worked in retail positions. She always knew that she wanted to be a social worker or counselor. She has a passion to help people in need as well as a love of working with kids. It is a rewarding profession once a child/children are in their forever homes or reunited with their families.
Opportunities for Advancement/Professional Development:
There are many chances in moving up in this profession. There’s many different roles you can indulge in but still be a help to the families as well as the community. For example, becoming a Supervisor, Trainer, Administrator, etc.
For professional development, all staff have opportunities to learn new/updated rules/regulations as it refers to the job and what they do daily. For example, there would be new training on ethics, HIPAA, certain protocols, court hearings, etc.)
She also asks her supervisor/directors for critique often to see how she can be more effective in her career.
Self Care:
A couple of strategies she learned is first to UNPLUG!
When you get home, unplug from work; unplug from your work your devices (unless you are on-call).
Do not check emails, calls, texts, etc. it is very hard to do, but that is how you start to experience burn out if you are constantly on the move and never just taking a break.
If she is not on call once she gets home, she turns her phone off (weekends as well) You have to set boundaries or people will take advantage of you and your time. Spend time with your friends, family, do what you like to do in order to have a balance.
Job Satisfaction.

Language Analysis Draft
Writing conventions are not always the same in every field of study. Because of this, it is important to become aware of the common language and grammar choices commonly followed in your field of study. This will help understand and learn more about scholarly writing as readers and writers. The article “Investigating changes in salivary microbiota due to dental treatment: A metagenomic analysis study for forensic purposes”, depicts some of the features found in the field of Forensic Science.
In accordance with the Swales and Feak (2012) description of level of formality, the language is formal. First person pronouns such as “I or we” are limited and used in the abstract to explain the work conducted by the researchers in collaboration. For instance, “In the present study, we compared the microbiota compositions present in the saliva of individuals with active dental caries before and after treatment from a forensic and clinical perspective using an approach based on the sequencing of all the variable regions (V1-V9) of the bacterial 16S rRNA gene” (Gül, F., Karadayı, S., Yurdabakan, Z., Özbek, T., & Karadayı, B., 2022). However, the “we” pronoun is more commonly observed than the “I” pronoun to show collective efforts made by the writers. Pronouns in the field of Forensic Science are either entirely omitted or confined to specific sections of the paper such as the abstract, discussion, or conclusion. This may be observed to refer to the group of researchers while methods and results mainly focus on the research and not the researchers. In addition, contractions, vague phrases, “you” pronoun, and phrasal verbs are not used as they would less formal, distract the audience, and cause confusion while reading. Questions were not included in this article either indirectly, directly, or as a part of Move 3. However, questions in Forensics if present, are addressed either indirectly or in the form of research questions. Another language feature is the use of adverbs. Adverbs are positioned in the middle of the sentence to maintain formality and flow of context for example, “Methods that are based on identifying polymorphisms in the human DNA are frequently used to solve forensic cases” (Gül et al., 2022). They are also used as split infinitives between “to” and the verb such as in the example, “Thus, using this technique makes it possible to comprehensively examine the composition of microbial communities, especially at the species level, and examine the differences between the salivary microbial flora of a healthy oral cavity and that of an oral cavity having caries” (Gül et al., 2022). Although split infinitives are used a lot, it depends on the context and how the authors’ wish to deliver their message. Moreover, the use of “maybe language” is used to open an idea of a result or opinion for discussion and other possibilities of reasoning.
Forensic science is a fie.

CONCEPTUALIZATIONS OF
GOOD CITIZENSHIP AND
POLITICAL PARTICIPATION
Elizabeth Theiss-Morse
Theorists have variously defined what it means to be a good citizen. But how do citizens
themselves views their responsibilities? And is there any relationship between a person's
view of citizenship and his or her political participation? This paper uses a combination of
methods to explore these issues. A Q method study reveals four citizenship perspectives
that provide evidence for striking differences in how people define the participatory re-
sponsibilities of a good citizen. An exploratory survey analysis finds that the four citizen-
ship perspectives are significantly related to political behavior, even when socioeconomic
status and attitudinal variables related to participation are controlled. While adding to
our understanding of participation, these findings also underscore the importance of in-
vestigating the conceptualizations of citizens to gain more complete understandings of
how political systems work.
Most studies of good citizenship fall into two categories: pedagogical
works on the best means of teaching good citizenship 1 and theoretical
works on its meaning. There are few empirical studies that deal even tan-
gentially with good citizenship, and these usually begin with an idealized
view of "the good citizen" and find that citizens fall far short of this stan-
dard.2 Largely neglected are citizens' own conceptualizations of good citi-
zenship; that is, what do people themselves think it means to be a good
citizen?
This paper attempts to answer "What is good citizenship?" from the per-
spective of citizens, and then tests whether citizenship conceptualizations
are related to participatory behavior. I begin with a brief overview of the
few studies that examine citizens' conceptualizations of good citizenship.
Then I discuss at some length the combination of methods used in this

study. Finally, I present the results: (I) a discussion of the four citizenship
perspectives that emerge from a Q data analysis: and (2) an exploratory
analysis of the relationship between these perspectives and political behav-
ior using survey data. The paper concludes with a general discussion of
how the results affect our understanding of good citizenship and the study
of political participation.

Preparation
Thoroughly research the issues using the Internet and the resources provided in What You Need to Know. You may need to conduct additional research to support your analysis. You must use a minimum of three scholarly resources outside of the course text in this assignment.
As you can see by your research, there is a lot going on behind the scenes in this scenario. However, it is clear that the Captain of the USS
Theodore Roosevelt was facing a difficult ethical situation and tried to find the best way to communicate his concerns. There are many questions that likely come to mind, such as:
· What was the dilemma facing the Captain? How might he have weighed his decision?
· Should the Captain have sent the message? Why or why not?
· Was the content of the communication appropriate, taking into consideration the recipient(s) of the letter? Did he distribute the letter for maximum effect?
· What should he have done differently?
· Did the Captain violate Navy ethical guidelines? Are his actions at odds with communication guidelines? Is that how he should be judged?
· Was his punishment justified?
· How do you think his crew felt? Is that relevant?
Also carefully read the grading criteria in the Communication, Ethics, and a Command Decision Scoring Guide to ensure you understand all of the requirements for success.Planning
The time it takes to complete an assignment can vary greatly. But it often takes longer than we think to explore the scope of a task, research it, write a draft, and then come back and revise it. Consider the following as rough guideposts for setting aside the time you need to do your work. You will want to adjust these as you learn more about your own pace and working style.
· Research and reading: 2 hours.
· Interactive activities: 30 minutes.
· Writing: 6 hours.
· Revising: 2 hours.Instructions
Consider the Captain's decision to send the letter, the manner in which the letter was sent, and the recipient(s) of the letter. Complete both parts of this assignment in a single Word document.Part 1: Analyze the Scenario
· Analyze the ethical decision that the Captain faced as it relates to how he communicated his plea and in the context of his position. Consider the sender, receiver, message, and channel.
· Analyze the primary failures and successes of the Captain's communication strategy. Make sure to consider how the letter was distributed, the Captain's possible intent, and the content of the letter.
· If this situation had occurred in the private sector and not the military, would the outcomes have been similar or different? Defend your reasoning. Part 2: Write a Communication
Imagine that you were the commanding officer of another naval ship who had followed this sequence of events closely. Your ship's Public Affairs Officer reports to you and is responsible for many of the ship's external communications, and you are anxious to share your lessons learned from the USS
Theodore Rooseve.
