Continuum of Care Explain how the concept continuum of care is used in case management and within your organization. What new services/programs are your organization currently evaluating or performing that are assisting patients to reach their health goals? How do these services/programs impact the bottom line of the organization? Quality indicators, such as accessibility, appropriateness, continuity, effectiveness, efficacy, efficiency, timeliness, patient perspective issues, and safety, can influence quality of care. Choose one indicator and discuss its influence on care inventory environments, including local, state, national, and global. Discuss the practice of linking hospital reimbursement to performance outcomes. Reading & Resources Chapter 2 pages 44-47 in Fundamentals of Case Management Practice De Regge, M., Pourcq, K.

Purpose of Assignment In Week 2, students will employ the supply and demand model to develop consumer surplus and producer surplus as a measure of welfare and market efficiency. Students learn about welfare economics--the study of how the allocation of resources affects economic well-being--and will discover that under most circumstances, the equilibrium price and quantity is also the one that maximizes welfare. Students will review different sources of externalities and a variety of potential cures and will see that while markets are usually a good way to organize economic activity, governments can sometimes improve market outcomes. Students will see how the U.S. government raises and spends money and the difficulty of making a tax system both efficient and equitable. Assignment Steps Scenario: Imagine you have been assigned the responsibility of preparing a paper for the governor's next economic conference. Prepare a 1,050-word paper addressing the following: Explain why equilibrium of supply and demand is desirable. Explain the following concepts using the concept of consumer and producer surplus: Efficiency of markets Costs of taxation Benefits of international trade Discuss how externalities may prevent market equilibrium and the various governments policies used to remedy the inefficiencies in markets caused by externalities. Analyze the difference between the efficiency of a tax system and the equity of a tax system as it refers to the costs imposed on taxpayers using the benefits principles. Cite a minimum of three peer-reviewed sources, not including your textbook. Format consistent with APA guidelines. Click the Assignment Files tab to submit your assignment. .

Supports post using several outside, peer-reviewed sources. • 1 References, f ind resources that are 5 years or less • No errors with APA format 6 Edition Discussion: ( Which theory speaks to your advanced nursing practice?) One of the theorists that speaks to my nursing practice is Madeleine Leininger’s Theory of Culture Care Diversity and Universality otherwise known as transcultural nursing. The theory of transcultural nursing promotes understanding of both the universally held and common understandings of care among humans and the culture-specific caring beliefs and behaviors that define any particular caring context of interaction (Butts & Rich, 2018, p. 572). Culture is the specific pattern of behavior that distinguishes any society from others and gives meaning to human expressions of care (McFarland & Wehbe-Alamah, 2015). This theory is intended to view the patient as a whole being. As an APN, this theory will allow me to be considerate of my patient’s needs. In turn, they will feel respected and listened to and hopefully this will promote a long-lasting relationship. Leininger discovered that inadequate knowledge of cultural factors represented a missing link in her ability to provide care (Nelson, 2006). As a future APN, I recognize the need and sometimes missing component of culture care nursing in our women’s health practice today. For example, in South Dakota we have a lot of Native American reservations. Since we see a number of Native American women, I think it would be beneficial for me to better understand their culture and beliefs related to healthcare in order to offer these women expert care. Also, with Leininger’s transcultural nursing theory she believes seeing the patient as a whole and to appreciate that the patient represents a complex constellation of physical, emotional, psychological, spiritual, social, environmental, and economic factors that interact and contribute to the patient’s unique wholeness and influence their ability to participate in health promotion, health maintenance, and disease modifying activities (McFarland & Eipperle, 2008). As an APN, by viewing the patient as a whole and recognizing their diversities, I will provide better patient care in which caring will be the main focus and recognizing that their different beliefs and cultures play a part in their decision making to the different treatment options.

EACH BULLET POINT OF THIS CASE STUDY NEEDS TO BE ANSWERED. CASE STUDY AND BULLET POINTS: Andrew Rockfish and the co- owners have been looking for a competitive edge in the North American market that will translate well to the other divisions. A recent meeting of the owners resulted in the decision to target business organizations with custom services. This decision stems from recent feedback from customers that revealed that for GDD to anticipate the needs of their clients, suppliers and service vendors, the Company needed to decrease the turnaround time in delivery and the mailing of small packages and letters. Rockfish has decided to offer “boutique” services to its business customers. Catering to businesses will allow GDD to provide personal services that Fed Ex and UPS cannot offer. Customizing the services will allow GDD to increase prices while creating a new niche.

Purpose: Discussion Thing to Remember: Answer this discussion with opinions/ideas creatively and clearly. Supports post using several outside, peer-reviewed sources. 1 References, try to find resources that are 5 years or less No errors with APA format. --------------- Discussion: Opinion Leaders This page automatically marks posts as read as you scroll. Adjust automatic marking as read setting I chose to further my education in hopes of providing better patient care and education. I want to be seen as an influence and a primary healthcare provider. My goal is to provide specialized, high-leveled care to patients with different backgrounds. An opinion leader is someone who has strong influence within a work place, giving of their time and experience, and creates strategies to help change an initiative. An opinion leader earns their role after much experience and expertise. Others look to them for advice and new information (Hamric, Hanson, Tracy, & O’Grady, 2014). When problems arise in a work environment, employees will look towards opinion leaders and others who will lead them through the stressors and crises. In order to be successful as an opinion leader, staff must be committed to serving the organization and devote time for teaching. Patient and staff safety should always be at the forefront. Not one person knows all the answers, but once we live through various experiences our abilities and competence improve and widen (Kai Tiaki, 2014). Communication skills can improve opinion leaders abilities. It is important that communication allows everyone’s voice to be heard, in an open, non-combative manner. In order for piers and other staff to have a positive trusting relationship with the opinion leader, they must feel as though they are being heard and also guided in difficult situations (Pollard & Wild, 2014). By the end of the summer, I am hoping my schedule allows me to become a preceptor for new graduates. I view that role as being an opinion leader for an individual, which would progress to a small group. I would love the opportunity to mold new fellows with everything I have learned so far as a postpartum nurse. When a newer nurse comes to me for advice, I want them to feel safe. My goal is never to talk down to someone making him or her feel inadequate for coming to me for help in the first place. If I do not know how to solve the issue I have been made aware of, I seek guidance from another senior nurse. I feel as though a good opinion leader wants others to seek their guidance instead of possibly making a mistake. References Hamric, A. B., Hanson, C. M., Tracy, M. F., & O’Grady, E. T. (2014).

Purpose: A Comment to Discussion: Team Dynamics Thing to Remember: Answer this discussion with opinions/ideas creatively and clearly. Supports post using several outside, peer-reviewed sources. 1 References, find resources that are 5 years or less No errors with APA format 6th edition Discussion: Team Dynamics As healthcare providers, we should aim to provide safe and quality care to patients while working with other members of the interdisciplinary team. However, teamwork is not always easy. I would like to explicate some of the characteristics of the interdisciplinary team that can prove to be beneficial to teamwork, as well as those that can hinder the teamwork process. I feel the most important aspect of teamwork is proper communication. Without communication, information cannot be conveyed to other members of the team. According to Lavoie-Tremblay et al. (2014) “team building requires considerable attention to interpersonal and communication skills” (p. 23). Members of the team must also share respect for one another and act in a professional manner through team interactions. Also, I think it is important for each team member to know the role they play within the team. In a study where a Learning Collaborative Program was initiated to help providers learn how to work in a team, they discovered the “teams needed opportunities to first learn about each other’s scope of practice and skill sets, develop a common language for communication, and understand how their scope of practice can be leveraged to improve team functioning and patient care” (Kotecha et al., 2015, p. 228). There is always another side to every story. There are some conditions that make teamwork in healthcare very difficult. Teamwork can be even more complicated when healthcare providers must make ethical decisions. The members of the interdisciplinary team have different personalities and perspectives that can affect teamwork. Hamric, Hanson, Tracy, and O’Grady (2014) postulate that “these differing positions can lead to creative and collaborative decision making or to a breakdown in communication and lack of problem solving” (p. 329). Other aspects identified by Lavoie-Tremblay et al. (2014) that can impact teamwork are psychological demands (of the job), social support (from colleagues and superiors), effort-reward balance, and healthcare providers’ experience with patients (p. 19). These aspects can impact teamwork in a positive or negative way. References Hamric, A. B., Hanson, C. M., Tracy, M. F., & O'Grady, E. T. (2014).

Week Three’s Business Writing Essay assignment Business Report: Poor Employee Performance Employees form a very important part of the organization because they directly contribute towards the performance of the organization (Weightman, 2008). The employees of New World Solution s Ltd (NWSL) have been found to be performing poorly because they rarely meet the objectives that have set for them. For this reason, the company is facing problems in the market because its competitiveness is very low. It has been unable to meet its targets and this is having a negative impact on its general performance. Keeping in mind that the employees are the driving force of any organization, their poor performance implies that the organization cannot perform as expected. It is, therefore, necessary for corrective measures to be put in place to ensure that employees are able to perform as expected of them by the organization as well as other stakeholders. The performance of employees is greatly affected by motivation and this implies that the organization should find out the different reasons as to why employees are not motivated and solve the problem . It is important for NWSL to take a look at the situation and reveal the different factors that are affecting the situation. This will reveal the problem and.

Public Relations - Read about the following Public Relations (PR) disaster from Business Insider and then post your comments on how you, as an airport director, would avoid getting involved in this PR nightmare. In early 2007, nine JetBlue flights at JFK airport were delayed for up to 10 hours because of serious inclement weather. Normally, this wouldn't have resulted in much more than a few really irritated travelers, but in this case, JetBlue decided to keep its nearly 1,000 passengers trapped in the runway-bound planes for the entire time. According to CBS News, passengers described the experience as "horrific". As snacks depleted and the bathroom situation grew unpleasant, people on the planes grew more and more upset that they were not being allowed to de-plane and walk to the terminal, which was within sight. They were only permitted to leave the aircraft when official airport vehicles arrived to transport them to the terminal. JetBlue at first defended it's decision, arguing that its passengers' safety in the ice storm was top priority but the incident sparked government debate about passengers' rights. According to Consumer Affairs, a week later, JetBlue announced its own "Passengers' Bill of Rights", which detailed different levels of compensation for varying types of delays, as well as a promise to de-plane passengers after five hours' delay in the future. (Male, 2009) (Links to an external site.) Bill of Rights for Customers - JetBlue (Links to an external site.) - JetBlue is dedicated to bringing humanity back to air travel.

Public corruption is generally viewed as an obstacle to the development of a country. Many governments, international organizations, and aid agencies as well as donor-states have special agendas to fight the problem. Yet in the countries with high levels of corruption, arguments have been made that because corruption is pervasive, it has to have some benefit. While definitely not something to be proud of, public corruption is seen as an unavoidable side effect of development” (International Debate Education, 2011, p. 63). Write a 2–4-page critical essay addressing the following claim about corruption: “Corruption is a Western concept and is not applicable to traditional societies, where corruption does not have such a negative meaning. Many traditional societies with a ‘gift culture’ have a different understanding of civil responsibilities and etiquette. The social structure and political traditions of many countries are based on the beneficial exchange of rewards for services rendered, and cannot survive in its absence” (International Debate Education, 2011, p. 63 ). Answer the following questions in your essay: Do you agree with any part of this claim? If so, which parts? If not, why not? What do the readings say on the topic of corruption as cultural tradition? What counter arguments do they make to the above assertion? How could gift-giving traditions be used by unscrupulous officials as a way to take advantage of people in the name of tradition?

Public and Private Partnerships Volunteers are a vital resource available to help communities and households recover from an incident. Businesses can also offer various forms of support for a community that has recently suffered damages. In addition to protecting their economic interests, businesses are able to increase their visibility in the community by offering support and helping the rebuilding efforts for community resiliency. These public and private partnerships may provide emergency managers with extra resources for executing response and recovery operations. However, inherent in fostering these partnerships are the difficulties in establishing agreements, ensuring coordinated approaches for emergency management, and enforcing standards for public and private partnership involvement. For this Discussion, review the Learning Resources for this week. Reflect on how volunteers, businesses, and public entities might assist with community recovery efforts. Consider the challenges in managing efforts for community recovery. By Day 4 Post a brief description of your community. Then describe two specific examples of public and private partnerships in disaster recovery. Finally, explain the potential impact of public and private partnerships in disaster recovery. Be specific and provide examples. Be sure to use the Learning Resources and current literature to support your response. Phillips, B. D. (2015). Disaster recovery (2nd ed.).
