Week 7 Instructor Notes
W7N1: Project Communication Overview
Approximately 70 (and some say up to 90%) of a project manager’s time is spent communicating and over 50% of their time is spent in meetings. Of the time spent communicating, approximately 45% of the time should be spent listening and no more than 30% should be spent talking.
The following are interesting facts, from Dr. Don Wetmore, regarding communication:
· The average person uses 13 different ways to control and manage their time
· The average person gets 1 interruption every 8 minutes or approximately 7 an hour or 50-60 per day
· On an average day, there are 17 million meetings in America
· The average worker sends and receives 190 messages per day
· There will be 2 million marriages in this country this year and 1 million divorces. 95% of divorces are caused by a “lack of communication”.
· The average working person spends less than 2 minutes per day in meaningful communication with their spouse or “significant other”.
· The average working person spends less than 30 seconds a day in meaningful communication with their children.
Communication is important – in both our professional and personal lives!
W7N2 How People Communicate
Project managers need to be able to communicate precise messages, where the receiving party understands the context, motive and message itself. A basic communication model helps in understanding what communication means.
Communication is two-way – we transmit information for the purpose of it being received and understood. Both the sender and receiver are involved in communication! What we transmit can be affected by “noise”, meaning that the receiver of the message may have a distorted message – they may be receiving something different than what we think we sent. That might be caused by the way we are sending or by the way they are listening. To avoid misunderstandings, we need to confirm that our message was understood accurately. Noise can be caused by many factors, including language, culture, or emotion. Noise can block out a message so the information is either not heard at all or is distorted. We need to use feedback to verify that our communications are successful.
There are various strategies for ensuring that messages are understood correctly and different strategies are needed for different types of communication channels. In face-to-face communications we can evaluate tone and voice and use body language in augment our words. While you must be careful to read cues correctly, face-to-face communications generally presents an environment where it is a bit easier to ensure your message is properly received. Consider the following:
· Email communication is 100% words (emoticons are marginally non-verbal communication)
· Telephone communication is 18% words and 82% voice tone
· Face-to-Face communication is 55% body language, 38% voice tone and 7% words
Be certain to think about the communication method we use..
Ever have a little difficulty with dates - finding them, keeping them, communicating with them? Or how about relationships in general - how to tell if you're in a good one or bad one? Or maybe you know someone else who struggles with these issues?
Plenty of detailed research to help with your dating and relationship issues is compiled into Healthy Dating & Relationship Tips and ready to help you.

Antibiotic Stewardship by Anushri Srivastava.pptxAnushriSrivastav
Stewardship is the act of taking good care of something.
Antimicrobial stewardship is a coordinated program that promotes the appropriate use of antimicrobials (including antibiotics), improves patient outcomes, reduces microbial resistance, and decreases the spread of infections caused by multidrug-resistant organisms.
WHO launched the Global Antimicrobial Resistance and Use Surveillance System (GLASS) in 2015 to fill knowledge gaps and inform strategies at all levels.
ACCORDING TO apic.org,
Antimicrobial stewardship is a coordinated program that promotes the appropriate use of antimicrobials (including antibiotics), improves patient outcomes, reduces microbial resistance, and decreases the spread of infections caused by multidrug-resistant organisms.
ACCORDING TO pewtrusts.org,
Antibiotic stewardship refers to efforts in doctors’ offices, hospitals, long term care facilities, and other health care settings to ensure that antibiotics are used only when necessary and appropriate
According to WHO,
Antimicrobial stewardship is a systematic approach to educate and support health care professionals to follow evidence-based guidelines for prescribing and administering antimicrobials
In 1996, John McGowan and Dale Gerding first applied the term antimicrobial stewardship, where they suggested a causal association between antimicrobial agent use and resistance. They also focused on the urgency of large-scale controlled trials of antimicrobial-use regulation employing sophisticated epidemiologic methods, molecular typing, and precise resistance mechanism analysis.
Antimicrobial Stewardship(AMS) refers to the optimal selection, dosing, and duration of antimicrobial treatment resulting in the best clinical outcome with minimal side effects to the patients and minimal impact on subsequent resistance.
According to the 2019 report, in the US, more than 2.8 million antibiotic-resistant infections occur each year, and more than 35000 people die. In addition to this, it also mentioned that 223,900 cases of Clostridoides difficile occurred in 2017, of which 12800 people died. The report did not include viruses or parasites
VISION
Being proactive
Supporting optimal animal and human health
Exploring ways to reduce overall use of antimicrobials
Using the drugs that prevent and treat disease by killing microscopic organisms in a responsible way
GOAL
to prevent the generation and spread of antimicrobial resistance (AMR). Doing so will preserve the effectiveness of these drugs in animals and humans for years to come.
being to preserve human and animal health and the effectiveness of antimicrobial medications.
to implement a multidisciplinary approach in assembling a stewardship team to include an infectious disease physician, a clinical pharmacist with infectious diseases training, infection preventionist, and a close collaboration with the staff in the clinical microbiology laboratory

Medical Technology Tackles New Health Care Demand - Research Report - March 2...pchutichetpong
M Capital Group (“MCG”) predicts that with, against, despite, and even without the global pandemic, the medical technology (MedTech) industry shows signs of continuous healthy growth, driven by smaller, faster, and cheaper devices, growing demand for home-based applications, technological innovation, strategic acquisitions, investments, and SPAC listings. MCG predicts that this should reflects itself in annual growth of over 6%, well beyond 2028.
According to Chris Mouchabhani, Managing Partner at M Capital Group, “Despite all economic scenarios that one may consider, beyond overall economic shocks, medical technology should remain one of the most promising and robust sectors over the short to medium term and well beyond 2028.”
There is a movement towards home-based care for the elderly, next generation scanning and MRI devices, wearable technology, artificial intelligence incorporation, and online connectivity. Experts also see a focus on predictive, preventive, personalized, participatory, and precision medicine, with rising levels of integration of home care and technological innovation.
The average cost of treatment has been rising across the board, creating additional financial burdens to governments, healthcare providers and insurance companies. According to MCG, cost-per-inpatient-stay in the United States alone rose on average annually by over 13% between 2014 to 2021, leading MedTech to focus research efforts on optimized medical equipment at lower price points, whilst emphasizing portability and ease of use. Namely, 46% of the 1,008 medical technology companies in the 2021 MedTech Innovator (“MTI”) database are focusing on prevention, wellness, detection, or diagnosis, signaling a clear push for preventive care to also tackle costs.
In addition, there has also been a lasting impact on consumer and medical demand for home care, supported by the pandemic. Lockdowns, closure of care facilities, and healthcare systems subjected to capacity pressure, accelerated demand away from traditional inpatient care. Now, outpatient care solutions are driving industry production, with nearly 70% of recent diagnostics start-up companies producing products in areas such as ambulatory clinics, at-home care, and self-administered diagnostics.

2. Effectively communicating with your loved can be one of the biggest
challenges you face as a caregiver. You may be confronted with issues
ranging from memory loss to hearing loss that can pose significant barriers
to communication. The following are a few tips that may make your job
just a little bit easier.
3. Coping with Memory Loss:
Individuals with dementia often have trouble coming up with the right
word during a conversation or remembering names of everyday objects.
You can help your loved one by doing the following:
4. If your loved one is struggling to find a word or complete a thought,
offer a gentle suggestion or try to provide what they are needing.
Jog your loved one’s memory by pointing to objects or using
pictures.
Instead of giving detailed instructions on what to do, walk your
loved one through the process.
Provide frequent reminders regarding upcoming events. Many
caregivers find it helpful to place a dry-erase board in a prominent
place where they can provide their loved one with a visual reminder
of the date, daily schedule, and important upcoming events.
5. Coping with Hearing Loss:
The natural tendency when dealing with someone with a hearing
impairment is to simply speak louder. This can actually be insulting and
make you harder to understand. Instead, try the following techniques:
6. Face the individual directly and ensure there is good lighting so that
they can see your face clearly.
Speak slowly and distinctly in an even tone.
Avoid changing topics too rapidly.
Be patient and give your loved one plenty of time to formulate their
response to your questions.
7. Be Present:
When engaging in a conversation with your loved one, try to create an
environment where you can both give each other your undivided
attention.
8. Choose a quiet environment free of excess background noise and
distractions.
Address your loved one by name before starting a conversation.
This will help to draw their focus to you.
Maintain eye contact so that your loved one knows that you are
talking to them and are interested in what they have to say.
Use gentle touch and physical contact to keep your loved one’s
attention focused on you and to provide reassurance.
9. Nonverbal Communication:
Body language is just as an important part of communication as speech.
The following are some ways to enhance nonverbal communication with
your loved one:
10. Maintain an appropriate distance. Your loved one may feel
threatened or overwhelmed when crowded.
Use gestures to indicate what you want.
If all else fails, draw pictures or write out what you are trying to say.
Finally, pause to take a deep breath if you find yourself becoming
frustrated and avoid trying to reason or argue to prove your point.
This will only result in your loved one feeling marginalized and
devalued.
11. Thank You!
