Scenario
Question 1
Question 2
Care in this type of setting is delivered by physicians, physician assistants, nurse practitioners, and ad-
vanced practice professionals. This area of health care is the most widely used, and it is a major focus
of the Affordable Care Act of 2010, focusing on primary care providers and decreasing the focus on the
utilization of specialty providers.
As an administrator, you need to assess this situation: How would you determine if there was a true need
for another receptionist? Do you need to reinstate the position or can you retrain the current number of
employees? Why?
As an administrator, describe the effects that labor shortages of key personnel and rising costs of labor
have on profitability. How would you determine how to allocate your money? Be sure to think critically
about the impact that quality outcomes and patient outcomes have on financial resources.
A primary care clinic can be an individual-physician practice or a multiple-physician practice organized
as a nonprofit or a for-profit facility. Multiple-physician practices generally specialize in cardiac, women’s
health, pediatrics, or related services. You are the administrator of a local for-profit, multiple-physician
community clinic owned by five local physicians, specializing in internal medicine, women’s health, pe-
diatrics, orthopedics, and oncology. The clinic sees an average of 50 patients per day. Scheduling is
centralized with two receptionists, and each specialty has four staff members to assist the physicians.
All the physicians have visiting privileges at the area hospitals and frequently speak at local and national
conferences on numerous preventative health care topics. The clinic is noted for its use of technology
and has agreements in place with the local hospitals for web-based exchanges of health information on
shared patients.
Action Required:
Your office just underwent an organizational change and one office receptionist was eliminated, saving
the office $25, 000 per year in labor costs. However, there have been a number of complaints that all
patients cannot be processed due to the increased flow of patients. Two weeks later you begin to hear
that wait times for appointments have increased, and one specific patient was not able to be seen. That
patient now has developed an infection and requires surgery.
Question 3
Based on what you have learned so far in this course, what would be your plan of action for the next 30
days? What types of reports would you use to help support your decisions?

In this assignment, you will develop a training manual that will be utilized for training new employees (certified medical administrative assistants [CMAAs]) who join the clinic.
Physicians are hiring more CMAAs to help manage the increasing complexities of patient care and practice management, while also helping to implement cost-effectiveness and efficiency. The responsibilities of a CMAA can be tailored to the needs of the practice. You will manage front-office functions, manage patient flow, and handle a wide range of tasks that have been discussed in the past few weeks. As a CMAA, you may convey clinical information on behalf of the physician and follow clinical protocol when speaking with patients, but you cannot exercise independent medical judgments. You will also help to optimize patient flow, enabling the physician to see more patients with efficiency, all while following your State’s scope of practice and working under the supervision of a licensed physician.

The document discusses the medical home model as a disruptive innovation for primary care. It proposes paying primary care physicians for coordinating patient care and managing health outcomes and costs through a medical home model. This shifts care from a specialist-focused model to a simpler, rules-based primary care model. The medical home aims to provide integrated, whole-person care through teams led by primary care physicians. It also discusses pilots of medical homes, challenges, and the potential for cost savings through reduced errors, care gaps, and procedures.

US Health Care System:
Week 5
For this assignment, you will generate, designate, Organize, investigate and, present a Manage Care Control Cost Plan: Under traditional indemnity insurance, the money follows the patient. Patients select health care providers and visit them as they choose. Providers then bill the private insurer or public payer and are reimbursed on a fee-for-service or per case basis
Manage Care Control Cost Plan: Chapters 9 & 10
Objective
:
Managed health care as it has developed in the USA, and the current backlash against it, must be viewed in the context of the traditional US health care system.
This system of employer-based, indemnity insurance and fee-for-service health care conditioned both providers ‘and patients ‘expectations of unlimited resources and unrestrained choice.
Not surprisingly, the constraints and controls imposed by managed care have resulted in outrage by doctors and their patients (and by doctors through their patients).
ASSIGNMENT GUIDELINES (10%):
For this assignment, you will generate, designate, Organize, investigate and, present a Manage Care Control Cost Plan: Under traditional indemnity insurance, the money follows the patient. Patients select health care providers and visit them as they choose. Providers then bill the private insurer or public payer and are reimbursed on a fee-for-service or per case basis.
Most indemnity plans attempt to limit demand through financial barriers to the patient, such as deductibles and co-insurance, rather than constraints on the provider. Many also require the patient to pay the provider directly and seek reimbursement from the insurer, often with payments less than charges.
Due to growing popular discontent with managed care organizations, many critics believe that the system will not continue in its current state. No one, however, expects managed care to disappear completely and indemnity plans to rise to their former prominence. Changes are expected to occur as managed care programs begin competing among themselves. Cost and efficiency will no longer be the main selling point; quality of services will take precedence. One researcher has suggested that along with new systems of managed care and continuing systems of indemnity plans, health care providers may even organize and offer services directly to employers, thus eliminating the middlemen. This development would be beneficial to all involved: employers would pay less; providers would be better compensated; and clients would receive better care

Canada Market Access Briefing
The document provides an overview of the Canadian pharmaceutical market, highlighting several key trends that will affect pharmaceutical manufacturers. The Canadian market, while smaller than some other countries, still ranks among the top 10 globally in drug spending. Launching a drug in Canada can be profitable if manufacturers understand the specific nuances of the market, such as Canada's complex reimbursement system with both public and private insurance. Health technology assessments play an important role in reimbursement decisions. Manufacturers must tailor their reimbursement and launch strategies to the target payer market, whether public or private plans. Health economic evidence is also becoming increasingly important for market access, pricing, and contracting in Canada.

Chapter 17: Risk Management in Office Based Surgery
Office Base Surgery (OBS)
Invasive procedures requiring general anesthesia and deep or moderate sedation which are performed in a doctor’s office separate from a hospital or ambulatory surgery center (ASC).
Technological advances and economic incentives led to a shift from hospital to ASC and now to office based surgeries.
Decrease in invasiveness of surgical procedures
Decrease in invasiveness of anesthesia
Concerns with OBS
Safety and ease of a procedure may entice physician to perform procedures they are not familiar with
Regulation of OBS is voluntary though is mandated in some states
As CMS did not allow facilities fees for procedures performed in OBS, they did not participate in regulating OBS practice as was done with other emerging healthcare entities
Sources of Risk in OBS
Informed Consent and Breach of Contract
Bleeding, Thromboembolism and Infections
Perforation of Viscus and Drug Toxicity
Interference with Pacemakers
Anesthetic Complications
Infection Control
Preexisting Condition Complications
Incorrect surgical procedure
Unplanned hospital admission from complications
Death
Legal Requirements for OBS Practices
Naming Designation
Corporate Designation
Referrals
Contracts between physicians and hospitals
Other Requirements
Some states require OBS to follow ASC regulations while others have established OBS specific regulations. In general OBS should:
Seek accreditation
Follow personnel requirements for education, training, licensing, board certification, hospital privileges and scope of practice
Select appropriate procedures to perform
Track and report adverse events
Accreditation and Clinical Guidelines
Currently there are 3 accrediting organizations for OBS facilities with very similar standards:
AAAHC
AAAASF
TJC
Clinical Practice Guidelines developed by professional associations should be adopted by the OBS as applicable
Management Practices
OBS facilities should have effective and efficient management practices in the following areas:
Personnel Management
Facility Management
Medical Records Management
Quality Management
Communications with patients
Clinical Practice Safety
OBS facilities should have effective and efficient clinical practice safety in the following areas:
Preoperative Practices
Intraoperative Practices
Postoperative Practices
Summary
The number OBS facilities continue to grow due to satisfaction of patients and practitioners
Risk management is an important consideration for the OBS facility as ease and safety of procedures may lead towards inappropriate selection of services

This document summarizes a panel discussion on PDMPs (prescription drug monitoring programs) and third-party payers, focusing on workers' compensation. The panelists included representatives from myMatrixx, Accident Fund Holdings, and Health Strategy Associates.
The panel discussed how third-party payers like workers' compensation insurers can access PDMP data to help address the opioid epidemic. Accident Fund Holdings implemented a program in Michigan that granted the insurer access to the state's PDMP to monitor prescribers and claimants. The panel also addressed challenges of balancing improved medical oversight with patient privacy when insurers access sensitive prescription records.
Dr. Obumneke Amadi-Onuoha Scripts-22
This podcast discusses how using medical insurance records can help anticipate future medical needs and reduce healthcare costs. Predictive analytics uses data from medical records, treatment outcomes, and more to predict things like responses to medications, hospital readmission rates, and future health conditions. This can help physicians with diagnosis and reduce costs. For example, predictive models are used to assess when patients can safely be discharged from the hospital to meet regulations. Medical insurance records predictive analytics has the potential to improve outcomes and reduce costs through more informed care, treatment that works for individuals, and awareness of health risks.

Management and regulation of hospital costs
Managers control hospital costs through various budgeting processes including fixed, flexible, operating, and strategic budgets. Fixed budgets do not change with volume while flexible budgets change based on actual activity levels. Operating budgets project annual expenses and strategic budgets focus on long-term trends. Organizations deal with changes in the short, intermediate, and long-run through measures like adjusting staffing levels. Hospital costs vary due to differences in services, cost-shifting, patient illness, and production efficiency. Regulatory approaches to controlling costs include certificate of need laws, utilization review, professional standards review organizations, and administered pricing systems like DRGs and PPS.

Private and Government Healthcare Systems
In the United States, health insurance coverage is generally classified as either private (non-government) coverage or government-sponsored coverage.
Healthcare Coverage vs. Uninsured
The National Center for Health Statistics defines health insurance as public and private payers who cover medical expenditures incurred by a defined population in a variety of settings.
In the United States, the risk of becoming uninsured increases significantly for those earning low wages, the unemployed, and when employers are unable to provide insurance to workers.
Table 5-2 presents the trend of declining health insurance coverage.
Private Health Insurance
The concept of insurance is to combine the healthcare experiences of many enrollees in order to reduce expenses for any one individual to a manageable prepayment amount.
Employment-Based Plans is coverage offered through one’s own employment or a relative’s employment.
It may be offered by an employer or by a union.
Private Health Insurance Continued
Direct-Purchase/Fee-For-Service Plans are the traditional type of healthcare policy.
The physician sets a price for each type of service delivered, and then the client or insurance company pays the fee.
This type of health insurance provides the most choices of doctors and hospitals.
Private Health Insurance Continued
The two kinds of fee-for-service coverage are basic and major medical.
Basic covers some hospital services and supplies, such as X-rays and prescribed medicine.
Major medical insurance covers the cost of long-term, high-cost illnesses or injuries plus whatever basic did not cover.
Private Health Insurance Continued
Group Contract Insurance—to make hospitals and physicians products and services affordable to ordinary people in the United States.
With unmanaged care (fee-for-service) payments, healthcare providers could increase the number of single services they deliver in order to increase profit.
Private Health Insurance Continued
Managed Care—manages the cost and delivery of healthcare services, the quality of that healthcare, and access to care.
Managed care influences how much healthcare clients can use.
Health Maintenance Organizations (HMOs) are prepaid health plans.
The goal of an HMO is to provide affordable, well-organized healthcare by allowing clients to prepay (capitation payment) on a regular monthly basis for all services provided.
Private Health Insurance Continued
Including physicians’ visits, hospital stays emergency care, surgery, laboratory (lab) tests, X-rays, and therapy for all members and their families.
There may be a small co-payment for each office visit, such as $15 for a doctor’s visit or $50 for hospital emergency room treatment.

Data analysis is used to identify at-risk patients and care gaps, while automation and technology help disseminate information to patients. Referral networks and payment structures incentivize physicians to focus on outcomes over volume. Hospitals are developing PHM strategies starting with their own employees to coordinate benefits, replicate the model, and expand it community-wide to improve affordability.

Workflow Redesign
After conducting a thorough gap analysis, the next step in the systems development life cycle (SDLC) is to target potential solutions to the gaps. There may be many potential solutions that can help to address workflow issues and inefficiencies, or there may be one seemingly obvious solution that could address almost all of the gaps in the current-state workflow. The challenge lies in selecting the most appropriate course of action from potential solutions that also works within organizational constraints.
In this Discussion, you revisit the scenarios from the Week 3 Discussion. You determine the possible avenues for workflow redesign and consider the constraints and factors that might impact your decision.
Scenario 1:
Stephanie is a nurse practitioner at Central Care Hospital who is often involved in administering prescribed medications for patients in the general care ward. When a physician sees a patient, he or she uses the hospital’s electronic health record (EHR) to document findings and recommendations for treatment but submits medication and drug orders by faxing prescriptions to the hospital’s pharmacy. Before Stephanie administers the medications from the pharmacy, she must cross-check the medication and dosage with the physician’s notes and patient information in the EHR. In doing so, Stephanie often identifies problems with the medication the physician prescribed; patients are sometimes prescribed a medication to which they have a known allergy or one that conflicts with another medication they are currently taking. In addition, the pharmacy sometimes sends the wrong medication or the wrong dosage. Furthermore, for patients who have been transferred from other parts of the hospital, such as the intensive care unit or the maternity ward, Stephanie often encounters duplicate drug orders or incorrect medications sent from the pharmacy.
Scenario 2:
General Health Hospital is implementing new outreach programs and preventative care support groups for patients with certain conditions or health risks, such as diabetes, smoking, and obesity. Philip, a nurse leader, is the manager of a team of nurses to organize these programs and groups and to identify patients who would be eligible and interested in being involved in these opportunities. However, Philip and his team have run into a variety of challenges and problems as they attempt to complete these tasks. In identifying patients to contact about the outreach programs and support groups, Philip’s team has had to browse the hospital’s entire electronic health record (EHR). The team has also run across significant holes in the EHR as they try to contact patients; many patients’ contact information is inaccurate or out of date. Furthermore, Philip’s team has partnered with the hospital’s Appointments Desk personnel in sending reminders about meeting dates and times to patients who express interest. However, the Appointments Desk often either neglects to send out these.
Corresponding Responsibility Of The Pharmacist
This document discusses the legal standard of "corresponding responsibility" that pharmacists have when dispensing prescriptions. A pharmacist must ensure each prescription is issued for a legitimate medical purpose by an authorized prescriber. While prescribers are responsible for proper prescribing, pharmacists have a duty to determine if a prescription is valid. The document outlines factors a pharmacist should consider to determine if a prescription has a legitimate medical purpose, such as prescription details, patient behavior, and prescriber characteristics. It also discusses legal cases and DEA guidance on prescribing and dispensing controlled substances. Overall, the document provides an overview of a pharmacist's legal responsibilities to validate prescriptions and factors that could indicate a prescription is not for a legitimate medical

MEANINGFUL USE REGULATIONS FOR RECOVERY AUDIT CONTRACTORS & ELECTRONIC HEALTH RECORDS
IMPACT ON CASE MANAGEMENT OR PERFORMANCE INCENTIVES.
In 2015 the Board of Registration in Medicine introduced a set of regulations requiring physicians to demonstrate proficiency in the use of electronic medical records, as well as the skills to achieve the federal Meaningful Use standard. Under the regulations, physicians are considered to have demonstrated proficiency if they meet any one of the following conditions:
· Participating in the Meaningful Use program as an Eligible Professional
· Having a relationship with a hospital that has been certified as a Meaningful Use participant. This relationship would be satisfied by any oneof the following conditions:
. Employed by the hospital
. Credentialed by the hospital to provide patient care
. Having a “contractual agreement” with the hospital
· Completing at least three hours of accredited CME program on electronic health records. Such a program must, at a minimum, discuss the core and menu set objectives, as well as the clinical quality measures for Meaningful Use.1
The Recovery Audit Contractor, or RAC, program was created through the Medicare Modernization Act of 2003 (MMA) to identify and recover improper Medicare payments paid to health care providers under fee-for-service (FFS) Medicare plans. The United States Department of Health and Human Services (DHHS) is required by law to make the program permanent for all states by January 1, 2010, under section 302 of the Tax Relief and Health Care Act of 2006.2 The main goals for RAC include:
• Minimize Provider Burden
• Ensure Accuracy
• Maximize Transparency
RACs are authorized to investigate claims submitted by all physicians, providers, facilities, and suppliers—essentially, everyone who provides Medicare beneficiaries in the fee for service program with procedures, services, and treatments and submits claims to Medicare (and/or their fiscal intermediaries (FI), regional home health intermediaries (RHHI), Part A and Part B Medicare administrative contractors (A/B/MACs), durable medical equipment Medicare administrative contractors (DME MACs), and/or carriers.2
Benefits of Electronic Health Records (EHRs)
Providers who use EHRs report tangible improvements in their ability to make better decisions with more compreh.

Canada Market Access Briefing
The document provides an overview of the Canadian pharmaceutical market, highlighting several key trends that will affect pharmaceutical manufacturers. The Canadian market, while smaller than some other countries, still ranks among the top 10 globally in drug spending. Launching a drug in Canada can be profitable if manufacturers understand the specific nuances of the market, such as Canada's complex reimbursement system with both public and private insurance. Health technology assessments play an important role in reimbursement decisions. Manufacturers must tailor their reimbursement and launch strategies to the target payer market, whether public or private plans. Health economic evidence is also becoming increasingly important for market access, pricing, and contracting in Canada.

Chapter 17 Risk Management in Office Based SurgeryOffice
Chapter 17: Risk Management in Office Based Surgery
Office Base Surgery (OBS)
Invasive procedures requiring general anesthesia and deep or moderate sedation which are performed in a doctor’s office separate from a hospital or ambulatory surgery center (ASC).
Technological advances and economic incentives led to a shift from hospital to ASC and now to office based surgeries.
Decrease in invasiveness of surgical procedures
Decrease in invasiveness of anesthesia
Concerns with OBS
Safety and ease of a procedure may entice physician to perform procedures they are not familiar with
Regulation of OBS is voluntary though is mandated in some states
As CMS did not allow facilities fees for procedures performed in OBS, they did not participate in regulating OBS practice as was done with other emerging healthcare entities
Sources of Risk in OBS
Informed Consent and Breach of Contract
Bleeding, Thromboembolism and Infections
Perforation of Viscus and Drug Toxicity
Interference with Pacemakers
Anesthetic Complications
Infection Control
Preexisting Condition Complications
Incorrect surgical procedure
Unplanned hospital admission from complications
Death
Legal Requirements for OBS Practices
Naming Designation
Corporate Designation
Referrals
Contracts between physicians and hospitals
Other Requirements
Some states require OBS to follow ASC regulations while others have established OBS specific regulations. In general OBS should:
Seek accreditation
Follow personnel requirements for education, training, licensing, board certification, hospital privileges and scope of practice
Select appropriate procedures to perform
Track and report adverse events
Accreditation and Clinical Guidelines
Currently there are 3 accrediting organizations for OBS facilities with very similar standards:
AAAHC
AAAASF
TJC
Clinical Practice Guidelines developed by professional associations should be adopted by the OBS as applicable
Management Practices
OBS facilities should have effective and efficient management practices in the following areas:
Personnel Management
Facility Management
Medical Records Management
Quality Management
Communications with patients
Clinical Practice Safety
OBS facilities should have effective and efficient clinical practice safety in the following areas:
Preoperative Practices
Intraoperative Practices
Postoperative Practices
Summary
The number OBS facilities continue to grow due to satisfaction of patients and practitioners
Risk management is an important consideration for the OBS facility as ease and safety of procedures may lead towards inappropriate selection of services

This document summarizes a panel discussion on PDMPs (prescription drug monitoring programs) and third-party payers, focusing on workers' compensation. The panelists included representatives from myMatrixx, Accident Fund Holdings, and Health Strategy Associates.
The panel discussed how third-party payers like workers' compensation insurers can access PDMP data to help address the opioid epidemic. Accident Fund Holdings implemented a program in Michigan that granted the insurer access to the state's PDMP to monitor prescribers and claimants. The panel also addressed challenges of balancing improved medical oversight with patient privacy when insurers access sensitive prescription records.
Dr. Obumneke Amadi-Onuoha Scripts-22
This podcast discusses how using medical insurance records can help anticipate future medical needs and reduce healthcare costs. Predictive analytics uses data from medical records, treatment outcomes, and more to predict things like responses to medications, hospital readmission rates, and future health conditions. This can help physicians with diagnosis and reduce costs. For example, predictive models are used to assess when patients can safely be discharged from the hospital to meet regulations. Medical insurance records predictive analytics has the potential to improve outcomes and reduce costs through more informed care, treatment that works for individuals, and awareness of health risks.

Management and regulation of hospital costs
Managers control hospital costs through various budgeting processes including fixed, flexible, operating, and strategic budgets. Fixed budgets do not change with volume while flexible budgets change based on actual activity levels. Operating budgets project annual expenses and strategic budgets focus on long-term trends. Organizations deal with changes in the short, intermediate, and long-run through measures like adjusting staffing levels. Hospital costs vary due to differences in services, cost-shifting, patient illness, and production efficiency. Regulatory approaches to controlling costs include certificate of need laws, utilization review, professional standards review organizations, and administered pricing systems like DRGs and PPS.

Private and Government Healthcare Systems
In the United States, health insurance coverage is generally classified as either private (non-government) coverage or government-sponsored coverage.
Healthcare Coverage vs. Uninsured
The National Center for Health Statistics defines health insurance as public and private payers who cover medical expenditures incurred by a defined population in a variety of settings.
In the United States, the risk of becoming uninsured increases significantly for those earning low wages, the unemployed, and when employers are unable to provide insurance to workers.
Table 5-2 presents the trend of declining health insurance coverage.
Private Health Insurance
The concept of insurance is to combine the healthcare experiences of many enrollees in order to reduce expenses for any one individual to a manageable prepayment amount.
Employment-Based Plans is coverage offered through one’s own employment or a relative’s employment.
It may be offered by an employer or by a union.
Private Health Insurance Continued
Direct-Purchase/Fee-For-Service Plans are the traditional type of healthcare policy.
The physician sets a price for each type of service delivered, and then the client or insurance company pays the fee.
This type of health insurance provides the most choices of doctors and hospitals.
Private Health Insurance Continued
The two kinds of fee-for-service coverage are basic and major medical.
Basic covers some hospital services and supplies, such as X-rays and prescribed medicine.
Major medical insurance covers the cost of long-term, high-cost illnesses or injuries plus whatever basic did not cover.

2. Supply of Insurance
Suppose there are two risk averse individuals, Cate and Dirk. They both face an identical
independent risky prospect: each individual has a 50% chance of earning $100 and a 50%
chance of earning $10. Let u(x) = log x be the utility function.
(a) Find Dirk’s expected utility from this prospect.
(b) Suppose Cate and Dirk decide to pool their incomes. They pay their realized income
into the pool and they each get half of the total income of the pool. Find Dirk’s
expected utility under the pooling scheme. (Hint: Since the two prospects are identical
and independent, there are four possible outcomes).(c) Show that Dirk’s expected utility under the pooling scheme is greater than his expected
utility without the pooling scheme.
(d) Compare the variance of the risky prospect with the pooling scheme and without the
pooling scheme.

Shopping online is about to explode. Retailers of all types are expanding product offerings, adding in-store pickup, free shipping and experimenting with social media. It’s getting harder to tell pure play Internet retailers from the bricks and mortar shops with online portals, and all of them are reinventing how we’ll shop online in the future. Be it via a mobile device, tablet computer, in-store kiosk or computer, the lines are blurring and the result will be both good and bad for consumers.

The United States is in the midst of a profound demographic transformation that will long outlast the current economic downturn. In 2011, the first of the baby boomers—Americans born between 1946 and 1964—turned 65 years old. There are 77 million baby boomers, comprising nearly one quarter of the total population, and their eventual retirement will have an enormous impact on the U.S. economy. This daunting fact is central to the January 2012 employment and labor force projections from the Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS). As the BLS projects, the retirement of the baby boomers will slow labor force growth significantly over the coming decade. Yet, at the same time, demand will grow for new workers to take the place of those who retire from the labor force, as well as for both highly skilled and less-skilled healthcare workers to look after the growing ranks of elderly Americans. In addition, the Social Security and Medicare programs w.

Reflect on the role of censorship in two East Asian countries since the end of World War II. How have decisions about thought control in the mid-twentieth century continued to influence these societies today?
What are the arguments for and against the democratization of China? Do you believe China’s eventual democratization is inevitable? Why or why not?
Internet access has been lauded by some commentators as the prescription for bringing an end to nationalism across the world. It has also been seen as a way to give oppressed peoples a voice.

2 part task: APA Format
Part 1
The role of the nurse educator requires specialized knowledge and skills. One of the essential competencies necessary for the role is the ability to develop relevant curricula for the preparation of future nurses. It is therefore important that nurse educators comprehend and stay well-informed of trends and issues which may impact nursing education.
This task is intended to facilitate your ability to develop competency statements and related learning objectives; select relevant learning assessment and evaluation tools; create learning activities that promote critical thinking and reflective skills; and actively engage and support students with diverse learning needs. As an educator, you are also required to demonstrate effective analytical skills in the evaluation of methods used to determine the achievement of program outcomes. In addition, in this task you write an element of an exam. This will help you comprehend different item types and the process involved when you develop items for course exams. These learning activities assist in building an educational foundation between the classroom setting and the clinical setting.
Scenario:
The nursing faculty at Hartford University have developed a new BSN curriculum and begun the work of designing and developing individual courses. You are a full-time, tenure-track faculty member assigned to develop courses in level one—the first year of the nursing program. Students at this level have completed all prerequisites for the BSN program.
You are asked to develop the Nursing Fundamentals course, the first clinical course students engage in once admitted to the BSN nursing program. According to the results of the nursing program entrance exam, the students who will be taking the Nursing Fundamentals course were found to have an equal distribution of visual, auditory, and kinesthetic learning styles. The Nursing Fundamentals course will introduce students to nursing care across the lifespan. It will also provide students with the tools necessary to perform basic nursing care in clinical settings and will provide the framework for future clinical courses (e.g., medical/surgical, pediatric, obstetrics/gynecology, mental health, and community nursing specialties).
Requirements:
A. Develop
four
competency statements specific to the Nursing Fundamentals course that are based on contemporary professional nursing standards and guidelines.
1. Explain how
each
of the
four
competencies you developed aligns with
one
of the following national nursing standards and guidelines:
• Commission on Collegiate Nursing Education (CCNE)
• National League for Nursing (NLN)
• Quality and Safety Education for Nurses (QSEN)
2. Create

learning objectives for
one
of the course competencies that you developed.
a. Discuss
one
criterion you will use to select appropriate learning resources to achieve the learning objectives you created.

I had no idea there were so many different theories and perspectives on crime. Personally, I believe in the classical theory and have a conformity perspective on human nature. The strain theory was very interesting to me because I believe many feel this way and will do anything they need to do in order to achieve something they want.

How to Manage Reception Report in Odoo 17
A business may deal with both sales and purchases occasionally. They buy things from vendors and then sell them to their customers. Such dealings can be confusing at times. Because multiple clients may inquire about the same product at the same time, after purchasing those products, customers must be assigned to them. Odoo has a tool called Reception Report that can be used to complete this assignment. By enabling this, a reception report comes automatically after confirming a receipt, from which we can assign products to orders.
