This document discusses nurse practitioner (NP) education, certification, scope of practice, and regulatory restrictions in Alabama. It notes that NPs complete graduate programs and national certification in their specialty. While research shows NPs provide high-quality primary care comparable to physicians, Alabama places many restrictive practice barriers on NPs. These include lack of recognition as primary care providers, limited prescriptive authority including no ability to prescribe controlled substances, and overly restrictive collaborative practice rules. The document advocates for regulatory changes to remove barriers and allow NPs to practice to the full extent of their education and training, which would improve access to care, decrease costs, and benefit patients, especially in underserved rural areas of Alabama.

Communication Ecology Turner et al, CHI 2010Thea Turner
We explore the communication ecology of a small company, providing insights on trends in technology use, how users choose among available technologies, and how technology use can define other behaviors.
The document proposes developing a large-scale food waste composting facility in Wilmington, DE by the Peninsula Compost Group. The facility would process 160,000 tons of food waste per year using Gore Cover technology to reduce odor emissions. It discusses site specifics, technology selection, financing, construction timeline, and photos of the facility.
Mitchell's goal was to lose 10 pounds by the end of the semester by going from 184 pounds to 174 pounds. He committed to going to the gym 3 times a week and changed his eating habits by stopping chicken nuggets and fries for dinner and starting to buy fresh meat and lower calorie foods. His influencing factors included support from brothers who exercise and access to a gym near his apartment. While he faced barriers like laziness, he utilized resources like a friend to motivate him at the gym and free access to the HUB gym. He tracked his daily weight loss progress but had not yet met his 10 pound goal due to gaining 4 pounds over a weekend visiting family where he ate and drank heavily.
Kom igång med öppna data - Webbdagarna Offentlig sektor 27 november 2014Pernilla Näsfors Östmar
Den svenska offentlighetsprincipen är redan långtgående, men hur kan er organisation gå ett steg längre i att tillgängliggöra den information era målgrupper söker med hjälp av öppna data? API, PSI, CSV, DCAT-AP etc… Öppna data kan verka krångligt, men hur kan ni enkelt komma igång? Vilken sorts data vill era målgrupper ha och hur kan ni leverera det på bästa sätt?
Pernilla Näsfors är specialist inom öppna data på Sida och Världsbanken, via sitt företag Openhearted AB. Utifrån sina erfarenheter av att hjälpa myndigheter runtom i världen med att öppna upp data om bistånd och utveckling gav hon under Webbdagarna Offentlig sektor den 27 november 2014 en introduktion till öppna data och gick igenom vad som är viktigt att tänka på när information öppnas upp för allmänheten gällande förankring, hållbarhet, tillgänglighet, standarder, integritet och så vidare.

This document provides an overview of simulation labs for faculty at UA Huntsville. It discusses how simulation allows students to actively learn, retain knowledge longer, and practice skills safely. Simulation offers controlled clinical situations where students can apply knowledge, demonstrate clinical reasoning, and practice communication. Studies show simulation improves self-confidence and satisfaction. The document provides tips for successful simulation, including selecting scenarios aligned with course objectives and facilitating effective debriefing sessions. It outlines the support available from the LRC to set up simulations.
The document summarizes common myths told by vendors about enterprise content management (ECM) systems. It discusses nine common myths, such as claims of being a market leader, experiencing high growth rates, having highly flexible systems, quick implementations, and low costs. The document aims to debunk these myths by examining vendors' actual capabilities and total costs of ownership over multiple years. It advises buyers to carefully evaluate vendors' product demonstrations, implementation timelines, development needs, pricing models, and global support coverage.
This document provides details on cost records and audit rules issued by the government of India in 2014. It summarizes the key provisions around the application of cost records and cost audit for different types of companies based on industry, turnover, net worth, and products. It also outlines the various cost heads that must be captured in cost records like material, salaries, utilities, service department expenses, repairs and maintenance, fixed assets, overheads, R&D, quality control, work in progress, and more.
The document lists the addresses of two properties in New York City - a townhouse on 74th and Central Park West, and a residence on Park Avenue. It also lists publications and articles where two other homes were featured - Architectural Digest in February 2010 for "Cape Ann Turnaround", and New England Home Magazine for "A Beautiful Blend".
