Focused SOAP Note and Patient Case PresentationPsychiatric notesShainaBoling829
Focused SOAP Note and Patient Case Presentation
Psychiatric notes are a way to reflect on your practicum experiences and connect them to the didactic learning you gain from your NRNP courses. Focused SOAP notes, such as the ones required in this practicum course, are often used in clinical settings to document patient care.
For this Assignment, you will document information about a patient that you examined during the last three weeks, using the Focused SOAP Note Template provided. You will then use this note to develop and record a case presentation for this patient. To Prepare
· Create a Focused SOAP Note on this patient using the template provided in the Learning Resources. There is also a completed Focused SOAP Note Exemplar provided to serve as a guide to assignment expectations.
PleaseNote:
· Based on your SOAP note of this patient, develop a case study presentation.
· Include at least five scholarly resources to support your assessment, diagnosis, and treatment planning.
The Assignment
The written portion of this assignment is a simulation for you to demonstrate to the faculty your ability to document the complex case as you would in an electronic medical record. The written portion of the assignment will be used as a guide for faculty to review your video to determine if you are omitting pertinent information or including non-essential information during your case staffing consultation video.
In your presentation:
· Present the full complex case study. Include chief complaint; history of present illness; any pertinent past psychiatric, substance use, medical, social, family history; most recent mental status exam; current psychiatric diagnosis including differentials that were ruled out; and plan for treatment and management.
· Report normal diagnostic results as the name of the test and “normal” (rather than specific value). Abnormal results should be reported as a specific value.
· Be succinct in your presentation, and do not exceed 8 minutes. Specifically address the following for the patient, using your SOAP note as a guide:
·
Subjective: What details did the patient provide regarding their chief complaint and symptomology to derive your differential diagnosis? What is the duration and severity of their symptoms? How are their symptoms impacting their functioning in life?
·
Objective: What observations did you make during the psychiatric assessment?
·
Assessment: Discuss their mental status examination results. What were your differential diagnoses? Provide a minimum of three possible diagnoses and why you chose them. List them from highest priority to lowest priority. What was your primary diagnosis and why? Describe how your primary diagnosis aligns with
DSM-5 diagnostic criteria and supported by the patient’s symptoms.

The Core Competencies for Public Health Professionals1 (i.e., Core Competencies) are a consensus set of foundational skills for the broad practice of public health, as defined by the 10 Essential Public Health Services. The Core Competencies are organized into eight skill areas or domains that cut across public health disciplines. The purpose of this assessment is to help you explore your level of competence within these eight domains. Please note that the signature assignment instructions include content directly from the competencies document.
By assessing your level of knowledge or skill for each competency statement described, you will be able to prioritize your learning time to focus on the most critical areas and concentrate where the need for training and learning may be greatest.
The competency assessment is divided into the following eight domains:
• Analytical/Assessment Skills
• Policy Development/Program Planning Skills
• Communication Skills
• Cultural Competency Skills
• Community Dimensions of Practice Skills
• Public Health Sciences Skills
• Financial Planning and Management Skills
• Leadership and Systems Thinking Skills
Tier 1 – Entry Level: Tier 1 competencies apply to public health professionals who carry out the day-to-day tasks of public health organizations and are not in management positions. Responsibilities of these professionals may include data collection and analysis, fieldwork, program planning, outreach, communications, customer service, and program support.
Instructions: Complete steps 1-3 for each domain.
1) Self-Perceived Proficiency: Read each competency statement listed within a domain. In each domain, and for each competency statement, think about the level at which you can perform the skill. Then rate your level of proficiency on each domain by selecting or highlighting the number on the domain from “None” (1) to “Proficient” (4) that best describes your self-reported level of expertise for that statement. Note: The competency statements listed in each domain should be interpreted as broadly as possible to apply to your position and principal employment setting. In the example below, you would select number “4” for “Proficient” if you think you are excelling at this domain or select “1” for “None” if you feel you need a great deal of improvement.
2) Evidence of Proficiency: At the end of each domain, please provide a detailed explanation of the required BSPH courses and/or approved public health experiences that helped you achieve the above-mentioned competency. Provide at least two examples of evidence and describe in detail how the assignments and/or projects helped you reach your perceived prof ...

PSY 638 Final Project Milestone One Guidelines and Rubric
Prompt: For Milestone One of your final project, you will submit a draft of the Problem Identification section of your grant proposal. Think about the professional
environment you will be seeking upon graduation and a potential problem within that professional environment that could be solved through your
recommended program. Some examples of professional settings and grant proposal problems include:
School/Educational Setting
Orchard Middle School has over 50 at-risk students with a reading performance that directly affects their overall self-esteem and negative behavior
issues. The school submitted a grant proposal to support development of a program to help all students with poor reading skills learn to read at grade
level and increase their reading speed, comprehension, and reading attention span and overall sense of worth, esteem, and achievement. Studies have
shown those who do better in school, fare better with stable mental health.
Outpatient Mental Health
The Open Arms Family Center requested a grant in the amount of $250,000 to contribute to the start-up funds for a family homeless shelter and mental
health services. As an innovative, all-inclusive shelter program, the center aimed to provide for 10 families with children under the age of five who are
experiencing homelessness. The center is committed to its mission of decreasing the overall number of homeless families in the Metro Boston area as
well as working to break the cycle of homelessness.
Community Outreach
The purpose of Healthy Tomorrows is to stimulate innovative, community-based programs that employ prevention strategies to promote access to
healthcare for children and their families nationwide. HTPCP funding supports direct-service projects, not research projects. Healthy Tomorrows is
designed to support family-centered initiatives that implement innovative approaches for focusing resources to promote community; define preventive
child health and developmental objectives for vulnerable children and their families, especially those with limited access to quality health services; foster
cooperation among community organizations, agencies, and families; involve pediatricians and other pediatric, child, and adolescent mental health
professionals; build community and statewide partnerships among professionals in health, education, social services, government, and business to
achieve self-sustaining programs to ensure healthy children and families. Healthy Tomorrows requested a grant proposal for $10,000 to conduct a needs
analysis for a meal delivery program to serve its less mobile community members.
Specifically, the following critical elements must be addressed in your milestone assignment:
I. Problem Identification: Research and identify resources for a specific developmental, behavioral, or diagnostic need for children or adolescents in
your community.

Create a 5-7 slide PowerPoint presentation about an evidence-based pop.docxnoel23456789
Create a 5-7 slide PowerPoint presentation about an evidence-based population health improvement plan. WITH SPEAKER NOTES
Introduction
Master's-level nurses need to be able to think critically about the evidence, outcomes data, and other relevant information they encounter throughout their daily practice. Often the evidence or information that a nurse encounters, researches, or studies is not presented in the exact context of that nurse's practice. A key skill of the master's-level nurse is to transfer evidence from the context in which it was presented and apply it to a different context in order to maximize the benefit to patients in that new context.
Professional Context
Master's-level nurses need to be able to think beyond the bedside. It is important to research, synthesize, and apply evidence that will result in improved health outcomes for the communities and populations that are part of your care setting. Improving outcomes at a community or population level, even incrementally, can create noticeably significant, aggregate health improvements for patients across all of a care setting.
Scenario
Your organization has created an initiative to improve one of the pervasive and chronic health concerns of OBESITY in the community. You will need to do your own research to gather and evaluate the relevant data for your chosen issue.
Once you have created a presentation for the initiative, you have been asked to present to a group of community stakeholders. The purpose of your presentation is to inform and enlist support for the initiative from your audience.
Instructions
The optional
Evidence-Based Population Health Improvement Plan Presentation Template [PPTX]
is provided to help you prepare your slides. If you choose to work without the template, consider referring to
Creating a Presentation: A Guide to Writing and Speaking
and
Guidelines for Effective PowerPoint Presentations [PPTX]
.
The suggested headings for your presentation are:
Community Data Evaluation.
Meeting Community Needs.
Measuring Outcomes.
Communication Plan.
Evidence.
In your presentation, you will:
Evaluate the environmental and epidemiological data about your community so that you can determine a population health issue within a chosen community.
Identify the relevant data. This can be communicated in a table or chart.
Describe the major population health issue suggested by the data within your community.
Explain how environmental factors affect the health of community residents.
Identify the level of evidence, validity, and reliability for each source.
Develop an ethical health improvement plan with outcome criteria that addresses the population health issue that you identified in your evaluation.
Consider the environmental realities and challenges existing in the community.
Include interventions that will meet community needs.
Address potential barriers or misunderstandings related to various cultures prevalent.

Focused SOAP Note and Patient Case PresentationPsychiatric notesShainaBoling829
Focused SOAP Note and Patient Case Presentation
Psychiatric notes are a way to reflect on your practicum experiences and connect them to the didactic learning you gain from your NRNP courses. Focused SOAP notes, such as the ones required in this practicum course, are often used in clinical settings to document patient care.
For this Assignment, you will document information about a patient that you examined during the last three weeks, using the Focused SOAP Note Template provided. You will then use this note to develop and record a case presentation for this patient. To Prepare
· Create a Focused SOAP Note on this patient using the template provided in the Learning Resources. There is also a completed Focused SOAP Note Exemplar provided to serve as a guide to assignment expectations.
PleaseNote:
· Based on your SOAP note of this patient, develop a case study presentation.
· Include at least five scholarly resources to support your assessment, diagnosis, and treatment planning.
The Assignment
The written portion of this assignment is a simulation for you to demonstrate to the faculty your ability to document the complex case as you would in an electronic medical record. The written portion of the assignment will be used as a guide for faculty to review your video to determine if you are omitting pertinent information or including non-essential information during your case staffing consultation video.
In your presentation:
· Present the full complex case study. Include chief complaint; history of present illness; any pertinent past psychiatric, substance use, medical, social, family history; most recent mental status exam; current psychiatric diagnosis including differentials that were ruled out; and plan for treatment and management.
· Report normal diagnostic results as the name of the test and “normal” (rather than specific value). Abnormal results should be reported as a specific value.
· Be succinct in your presentation, and do not exceed 8 minutes. Specifically address the following for the patient, using your SOAP note as a guide:
·
Subjective: What details did the patient provide regarding their chief complaint and symptomology to derive your differential diagnosis? What is the duration and severity of their symptoms? How are their symptoms impacting their functioning in life?
·
Objective: What observations did you make during the psychiatric assessment?
·
Assessment: Discuss their mental status examination results. What were your differential diagnoses? Provide a minimum of three possible diagnoses and why you chose them. List them from highest priority to lowest priority. What was your primary diagnosis and why? Describe how your primary diagnosis aligns with
DSM-5 diagnostic criteria and supported by the patient’s symptoms.

Signature Assignment
Name
School
COH 499 Capstone
The capstone paper will serve as a valuable tool for your self-assessment of your competency level across the eight domains of the core competencies for Public Health Professionals. The Core Competencies for Public Health Professionals1 (i.e., Core Competencies) are a consensus set of foundational skills for the broad practice of public health, as defined by the 10 Essential Public Health Services. The Core Competencies are organized into eight skill areas or domains that cut across public health disciplines. The purpose of this assessment is to help you explore your level of competence within these eight domains. Please note that the signature assignment instructions include content directly from the competencies document.
By assessing your level of knowledge or skill for each competency statement described, you will be able to prioritize your learning time to focus on the most critical areas and concentrate where the need for training and learning may be greatest.
The competency assessment is divided into the following eight domains:
• Analytical/Assessment Skills
• Policy Development/Program Planning Skills
• Communication Skills
• Cultural Competency Skills
• Community Dimensions of Practice Skills
• Public Health Sciences Skills
• Financial Planning and Management Skills
• Leadership and Systems Thinking Skills
Tier 1 – Entry Level: Tier 1 competencies apply to public health professionals who carry out the day-to-day tasks of public health organizations and are not in management positions. Responsibilities of these professionals may include data collection and analysis, fieldwork, program planning, outreach, communications, customer service, and program support.
Instructions: Complete steps 1-3 for each domain.
1) Self-Perceived Proficiency: Read each competency statement listed within a domain. In each domain, and for each competency statement, think about the level at which you can perform the skill. Then rate your level of proficiency on each domain by selecting or highlighting the number on the domain from “None” (1) to “Proficient” (4) that best describes your self-reported level of expertise for that statement. Note: The competency statements listed in each domain should be interpreted as broadly as possible to apply to your position and principal employment setting. In the example below, you would select number “4” for “Proficient” if you think you are excelling at this domain or select “1” for “None” if you feel you need a great deal of improvement.
2) Evidence of Proficiency: At the end of each domain, please provide a detailed explanation of the required BSPH courses and/or approved public health experiences that helped you achieve the above-mentioned competency. Provide at least two examples of evidence and describe in detail how the assignments and/or projects helped you reach your perceived prof ...

PSY 638 Final Project Milestone One Guidelines and Rubric
Prompt: For Milestone One of your final project, you will submit a draft of the Problem Identification section of your grant proposal. Think about the professional
environment you will be seeking upon graduation and a potential problem within that professional environment that could be solved through your
recommended program. Some examples of professional settings and grant proposal problems include:
School/Educational Setting
Orchard Middle School has over 50 at-risk students with a reading performance that directly affects their overall self-esteem and negative behavior
issues. The school submitted a grant proposal to support development of a program to help all students with poor reading skills learn to read at grade
level and increase their reading speed, comprehension, and reading attention span and overall sense of worth, esteem, and achievement. Studies have
shown those who do better in school, fare better with stable mental health.
Outpatient Mental Health
The Open Arms Family Center requested a grant in the amount of $250,000 to contribute to the start-up funds for a family homeless shelter and mental
health services. As an innovative, all-inclusive shelter program, the center aimed to provide for 10 families with children under the age of five who are
experiencing homelessness. The center is committed to its mission of decreasing the overall number of homeless families in the Metro Boston area as
well as working to break the cycle of homelessness.
Community Outreach
The purpose of Healthy Tomorrows is to stimulate innovative, community-based programs that employ prevention strategies to promote access to
healthcare for children and their families nationwide. HTPCP funding supports direct-service projects, not research projects. Healthy Tomorrows is
designed to support family-centered initiatives that implement innovative approaches for focusing resources to promote community; define preventive
child health and developmental objectives for vulnerable children and their families, especially those with limited access to quality health services; foster
cooperation among community organizations, agencies, and families; involve pediatricians and other pediatric, child, and adolescent mental health
professionals; build community and statewide partnerships among professionals in health, education, social services, government, and business to
achieve self-sustaining programs to ensure healthy children and families. Healthy Tomorrows requested a grant proposal for $10,000 to conduct a needs
analysis for a meal delivery program to serve its less mobile community members.
Specifically, the following critical elements must be addressed in your milestone assignment:
I. Problem Identification: Research and identify resources for a specific developmental, behavioral, or diagnostic need for children or adolescents in
your community.

Create a 5-7 slide PowerPoint presentation about an evidence-based pop.docxnoel23456789
Create a 5-7 slide PowerPoint presentation about an evidence-based population health improvement plan. WITH SPEAKER NOTES
Introduction
Master's-level nurses need to be able to think critically about the evidence, outcomes data, and other relevant information they encounter throughout their daily practice. Often the evidence or information that a nurse encounters, researches, or studies is not presented in the exact context of that nurse's practice. A key skill of the master's-level nurse is to transfer evidence from the context in which it was presented and apply it to a different context in order to maximize the benefit to patients in that new context.
Professional Context
Master's-level nurses need to be able to think beyond the bedside. It is important to research, synthesize, and apply evidence that will result in improved health outcomes for the communities and populations that are part of your care setting. Improving outcomes at a community or population level, even incrementally, can create noticeably significant, aggregate health improvements for patients across all of a care setting.
Scenario
Your organization has created an initiative to improve one of the pervasive and chronic health concerns of OBESITY in the community. You will need to do your own research to gather and evaluate the relevant data for your chosen issue.
Once you have created a presentation for the initiative, you have been asked to present to a group of community stakeholders. The purpose of your presentation is to inform and enlist support for the initiative from your audience.
Instructions
The optional
Evidence-Based Population Health Improvement Plan Presentation Template [PPTX]
is provided to help you prepare your slides. If you choose to work without the template, consider referring to
Creating a Presentation: A Guide to Writing and Speaking
and
Guidelines for Effective PowerPoint Presentations [PPTX]
.
The suggested headings for your presentation are:
Community Data Evaluation.
Meeting Community Needs.
Measuring Outcomes.
Communication Plan.
Evidence.
In your presentation, you will:
Evaluate the environmental and epidemiological data about your community so that you can determine a population health issue within a chosen community.
Identify the relevant data. This can be communicated in a table or chart.
Describe the major population health issue suggested by the data within your community.
Explain how environmental factors affect the health of community residents.
Identify the level of evidence, validity, and reliability for each source.
Develop an ethical health improvement plan with outcome criteria that addresses the population health issue that you identified in your evaluation.
Consider the environmental realities and challenges existing in the community.
Include interventions that will meet community needs.
Address potential barriers or misunderstandings related to various cultures prevalent.

I've been promised A+ papers in the past but so far I have not seen better than a C. Is there anyone out there that can do this and seriously get an A or atleast a B. I would greatly appreciate :)
In a 1-2 page Microsoft Word document, discuss the following case study:
When Alexander and Deborah married, Alexander owned a duplex in a community property state. They lived in one side of the duplex. They saved their money and bought a lake lot as tenants by the entirety. Deborah failed to pay the loans she took out from Savings Bank prior to her marriage to pay for college. The bank claimed the duplex, the lake lot and their savings.
Discuss the likelihood of success on the bank's claims against the properties.

It’s easy to dismiss the works from the Dada movement as silly. Cons.docxlmelaine
It’s easy to dismiss the works from the Dada movement as silly. Consider the art that was popular at the time, however. These “silly” works were a violent protest to the realism and impressionism of the day. Check out “Entr' acte", 1924, directed by Rene Clair” on YouTube, if you can, for an excellent example of Dada.
www.youtube.com/watch?v=NMaXF-4MMGA
The pointlessness of the action is the point! I still crack up at the end even seen it hundreds of times.
Think: what does Dada do that realism cannot? What’s the value of a movement that breaks all the rules? What did Dada contribute to the progress of art and film?
Remember, post before WEDNESDAY and three times during the week because you must contribute three postings over the week for full credit. Please write more than 50 words for your first response to my question.

What Dada can do that realism cannot is make humorous, chaotic assemblage of events. The value of a movement that breaks all the rules is a non-traditional valued movement. The Dada anti-art movement had a strong negative and destructive element. Dada writers and artists were concerned with shock, protest, and nonsense. Dada contributed to assemblage, collage, photomontage and the use of ready-made objects. The inclusion of sound in art, the incorporation of found objects in a work of art, and the concept of improvising as a performance options were all substantially important to not only the development of music, but more specifically the development of electronic music.

The art of film is very dynamic. Dada was a great way to show how it was used. I know watching the film showed so many scenes and object so, it made it very helpful to understand the meaning of Dada.
Posted by Anya Walker at 06/18/13 05:59
Dada is hilarious to watch. The artist is able to show realism by having creative scenes that was part of the anti-war movement era. The objective of using a technique called collage was used by combining different type of scraps that was part of illustration to be viewed in different scenes. Dada contributes to the art of film by having music being played while watching the film. Also, surrealism was introduced to show a type of chaotic way of using humorous scenes in film.

Very well written. For some reason I read and read the article on Dada in the book and couldn't quite get it. So I read a few articles from the Internet to fully understand what the Dada movement was. Even with breaking all the rules they were able to contribute to the art.

Its meaning is still debated. It could be a symbol of the city of Florence (and by association of the Medici's identification with the city of Florence) or it could be a metaphor for the nature of love. Choose one of these meanings and elaborate on that meaning. Be sure to talk about the story of David, how he is portrayed in the statue, its location, etc.

It is not an online course so i cannot share any login details. No detailed instructions were given to complete this assignment. The professor indicated that he wants a 3-4 page paper with a topic of my choosing. It needs to be about civilization as a whole though. The two topics i showed to the professor that he agreed were good for the paper were the following:
Discuss the death sentence and how it has been changed over the years morally.
Discuss the use of physical torture and how it has changed over the years morally.
These papers are discussing time periods ranging from the spanish inquisition, all the way up to present day. How were these used in the past and how did our civilization change to accept it the way it is today?

Case Study: Wobbly Wheels (WW) Distribution Company
Overview
WW is a regional transportation and distribution company in operation for over 60 years. The company serves major cities in the Mid-Atlantic region. They are headquartered in Wilmington, Delaware and have a staff of 400 employees including truck drivers. There are 6 distribution terminals (Philadelphia PA, Baltimore MD, New York City, Washington DC, Newark NJ and Wilmington DE) for consolidating freight, and 100 delivery vehicles including 20 tractor/semi-trailer units, 40 box trucks and 40 panel vans.
The company operates in a highly competitive business environment. Growth has been stagnant because of a slow economy. John, the president of the company, would like to see growth at 5% per year. He would also like to see expenses cut by 5% to help fund new initiatives. Current revenue is about $39 million a year with profit running at 4%.
Current Business Operations
WW operates 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. Sales personnel (12 people, two per terminal) visit prospective customers to outline company capability, services provided and costs. When a customer decides to use WW they call the dispatch office with shipment information. Usually they FAX a copy of the bill (s) of lading to a terminal with information such as origin, destination, product description, weight and number of packages.
A dispatcher at a terminal makes a list of freight pickups and sends a truck to get the freight. To do this they use the routing system to determine the sequence of pickups by zip code. They use local maps within a zip code to map out the specific order of pickups since there may be several in a zip code area. They have a performance goal of 98% of freight picked up within 24 hours of availability.
A driver follows the dispatch order for pickups. Many of the drivers complain that the pickup order is not efficient. When they pick up an order they sign for receipt and either load the freight or guide the customer’s forklift operators to arrange it properly in the truck.
After freight is picked up it is brought to the terminal where it is unloaded and sorted by destination. A dispatcher then prepares a delivery ticket (again using the routing system) that is used to load a truck in the proper sequence for delivery. Some trucks take freight from one terminal to another while others make local deliveries. About half of a terminal’s space is used on any given night. Dispatchers have a goal to turn freight around.

This is a presentation by Dada Robert in a Your Skill Boost masterclass organised by the Excellence Foundation for South Sudan (EFSS) on Saturday, the 25th and Sunday, the 26th of May 2024.
He discussed the concept of quality improvement, emphasizing its applicability to various aspects of life, including personal, project, and program improvements. He defined quality as doing the right thing at the right time in the right way to achieve the best possible results and discussed the concept of the "gap" between what we know and what we do, and how this gap represents the areas we need to improve. He explained the scientific approach to quality improvement, which involves systematic performance analysis, testing and learning, and implementing change ideas. He also highlighted the importance of client focus and a team approach to quality improvement.

Operation “Blue Star” is the only event in the history of Independent India where the state went into war with its own people. Even after about 40 years it is not clear if it was culmination of states anger over people of the region, a political game of power or start of dictatorial chapter in the democratic setup.
The people of Punjab felt alienated from main stream due to denial of their just demands during a long democratic struggle since independence. As it happen all over the word, it led to militant struggle with great loss of lives of military, police and civilian personnel. Killing of Indira Gandhi and massacre of innocent Sikhs in Delhi and other India cities was also associated with this movement.
We all have good and bad thoughts from time to time and situation to situation. We are bombarded daily with spiraling thoughts(both negative and positive) creating all-consuming feel , making us difficult to manage with associated suffering. Good thoughts are like our Mob Signal (Positive thought) amidst noise(negative thought) in the atmosphere. Negative thoughts like noise outweigh positive thoughts. These thoughts often create unwanted confusion, trouble, stress and frustration in our mind as well as chaos in our physical world. Negative thoughts are also known as “distorted thinking”.

Preparing Your Business to Go Global
Posted By Anita Campbell On November 19, 2010 @ 11:53 pm
In Small Business
Operations
This series is commissioned by UPS.
A few weeks ago I pointed out how to ready your website for
international business [1] — everything
from translating your website text, to search engine
optimization in other languages. That article
sparked thoughtful discussion. So this week I thought I’d
expand the discussion beyond your Web
presence, and focus on how to prepare your business as a whole
to go global.
Depending on the industry you are in, and where you intend to
seek business, here are 5
considerations before you take that big leap:
1) Don’t assume you have to be big to go global — A few years
back the Council on
Competitiveness coined the term “micro-multinational [2]” to
describe startups that go global
from day one (or nearly day one). In fact, we’ve published an
10. entire series on micro-
multinational companies [3]. So rather than following the old-
fashioned path to global growth,
which meant expanding regionally, then nationally before
finally going international years
later — today you can leapfrog over those steps. It’s largely
thanks to inexpensive
technology and services designed to help small businesses
operate across borders with the
same efficiencies as large businesses.
2) Research the legal, HR and tax environment in any countries
where you will have a
physical presence, before you leap — If you need or plan to
have a presence in or
ongoing sales to another country — such as local employees,
local warehouses or exports of
goods to that country — be sure to investigate all legal, HR and
tax implications. They can
add considerable cost to doing business, not to mention getting
your business into hot water
if you don’t comply with local laws and regulations. That’s a
distraction you don’t need!
Previously, I interviewed Larry Harding of High Street Partners,
a company that helps small
businesses navigate the compliance issues of doing business
internationally [4]:
According to CEO Larry Harding, a handful of issues come up
repeatedly when companies desire to
expand overseas. “It’s easy to do the things that are readily
apparent, but below the surface there
are so many more things to look out for. It behooves companies
11. that are in the planning stages of
international expansion, to factor in the costs of compliance.”
He pointed to these two typical pitfalls
as examples:

multinationals.html

https://smallbiztrends.com/?s=micro-multinational&x=0&y=0
https://smallbiztrends.com/2007/12/smaller-and-younger-
companies-get-overseas-presence.html
• Employment Regulations and Practices – These are very
different overseas. A typical pitfall might
involve a company sending its U.S. offer letter to a prospective
employee in the European Union,
without realizing that they really need a full-blown employment
contract that complies with local
regulations. The ramification is that it immediately tilts the
balance of power greatly to the employee,
at the expense of the company, and makes termination difficult.
• Shipping and Importation – Many U.S. companies don’t have a
good handle on shipping product
overseas. There are a complex set of rules about importation
and logistical issues. A typical pitfall is
that something arrives on the dock and a duty must be paid. The
company shipping ends up paying
and it can be sizable — sometimes 17% — eating up the profits.
3) Invest in technology from the get-go — The right technology,
especially cloud based
12. software, can position your business to scale without adding
incremental cost or a large staff
base. Web-based software services, email, social media and
inexpensive
telecommunications bring the world to your fingertips, helping
bridge wide distances. And
just as importantly, technology can make the job of gathering
market intelligence and
marketing your business internationally, much easier.
Laurel Delaney, CEO of GlobeTrade.com [5], noted the
importance of social media and the Web in a
recent article about small businesses considering international
expansion. Laurel wrote:
How else will cross-border customers find you? If you are still
thinking about whether your business
should launch a blog or be on Twitter, forget the notion of
taking your business global. You are too
myopic! You need to position yourself on relevant networks
and beef up your communication
efforts. So for all you aspiring global enthusiasts, pony up the
nominal fee to set up a regular
website, start a blog, and get on Twitter, Facebook and
LinkedIn. Use effective marketing to get
noticed. The more online platforms you use, the better your
chances of being discovered. When a
customer bites, test out your price, see what reaction you get
and then negotiate from there.
If you offer products on an e-commerce platform, can customers
buy … at every destination
point? Make sure you focus on customer support, fulfillment
and being user friendly. Accessibility is
paramount considering all the different time zones we operate
in. Make it easy for customers to get
13. help should they need it. Your site should be attractive and
functional. Speed is also important
when considering users in remote parts of the world with dial-
up connections. Do what you can to
help them buy from you without a hassle.
4) If you plan to export physical goods, get exporting help —
There are many
considerations tied up in the decision to export. You have to
understand your market in the
country you are targeting. You have to understand exporting
laws and regulations, both here
http://globetrade.com/
in the United States and in the target country. Sometimes
licenses are required. The U.S.
Federal government has done a good job on a website to provide
you answers to these and
many more questions. On Export.gov you can: take advantage
of international market
research; learn about trade missions and trade events; begin
your investigation into export
licensing requirements; and even get personalized answers to
your exporting questions via
email and phone.
5) Figure out how you’re going to get paid — Doing business
internationally used to rely
heavily on letters of credit. Letters of credit are still widely
used. But luckily today there are
easier and faster options, especially for smaller-ticket
transactions. PayPal and American
Express’s FX International are two of the most popular options
for international
14. payments. Moneybookers.com, Xoom.com and even Western
Union are lesser-used
alternatives, but still may fit in situations where PayPal or FX
International are not available,
or as an alternative. For instance, while PayPal covers many
countries, your buyer may not
have access to PayPal in the country you are selling into, but
one of the other alternatives
may fit the bill. Decide up front your desired method(s) of
payment, and know the ins and
outs so that you aren’t rudely (or expensively) surprised.
These are but a handful of the issues to consider when going
global. For additional insights, read:

Jantsch’s interview of two entrepreneurs
and their challenges going global).

Preparing Your Business to Go Global
Reauthorize key small business programs
BY REP. STEVE CHABOT (R-OHIO) — 03/16/16 08:30 AM
EDT
16. Source
What do Sonicare toothbrushes, Roomba iRobots and 70 percent
of the computer chips in today’s
iPhones have in common?
As a few of our witnesses told the House Small Business
Committee earlier this month, they all began
with small companies using the Small Business Innovation
Research (SBIR) or Small Business Technology
Transfer (STTR) programs, administered by the Small Business
Administration (SBA).
These two initiatives have a proven track record of success in
helping America’s small businesses
compete and succeed in the global technology marketplace.
That is why our committee has begun the process of renewing
SBIR and STTR before they are slated to
expire next year.
Unless they are reauthorized by Congress, both programs will
expire, putting America’s small businesses
at a serious competitive disadvantage. That’s why we’re going
to work together to make sure that
doesn’t happen, and get these programs reauthorized sooner
rather than later. SBIR is a rare example of
a federal program that is more relevant today than when it was
created. Unlike many such programs,
taxpayers consistently get their money’s worth from the SBIR --
and then some. Congress has been able
to modernize the program through reauthorizations over the last
three decades, ensuring its success
and providing a sharp contrast with bloated programs that have
failed to deliver for small businesses.
17. We have been committed to advancing policies that will help
American innovators as they develop the
latest cutting-edge technology and get their products to market.
In this era of globalization, making it easier for small
businesses to develop and commercialize new,
innovative products is essential for both our economic security
and our national security.
SBIR and STTR investments are an important part of this effort
because their awards go to small
innovators at the forefront of today’s scientific and
technological revolution. Deservedly, the programs
have long enjoyed bipartisan support, both on our Committee
and throughout the halls of Congress.
There are more than 28 million small businesses in the United
States which create about 7 out of every
10 new jobs and employ half the private sector workforce.
Small businesses tend to be more nimble
and better able to respond to market changes than their bigger
counterparts, particularly when it comes
to science and technology. This advantage has allowed small
business to drive the innovation sector and
make the United States more agile and competitive in the global
economy.
Washington has always been criticized for lurching from crisis
to crisis and striking last-minute, 11th-
hour deals to pass important legislation, and that criticism is
often deserved. By getting a jump start on
reauthorizing these two key programs, we can start to break this
bad habit while giving stability and
predictability to thousands of entrepreneurs.
18. Our work on SBIR/STTR is already underway. This month, our
Committee held a series of hearings where
we heard from innovators from all walks of life about how
valuable these awards have been to them
https://thehill.com/blogs/congress-blog/economy-
budget/273128-reauthorize-key-small-business-programs
and how much they would be helped by early reauthorization
and the certainty it brings. Our
Committee is set to approve a bipartisan reauthorization
measure later this month.
Entrepreneurs constantly tell us that they need more certainty
from Washington so they can better plan
for the future. For many of them, a big part of that future is
their innovation outlook and their research
and development schedules. Congress and President Obama
recognized this fundamental truth at the
end of last year when we made permanent the Research and
Development tax credit for small
businesses.
Early reauthorization of SBIR and STTR would give similar
certainty and predictability to our tech
entrepreneurs so they can focus on getting their products to
market, creating jobs and spurring
economic growth.
Certainty and predictability breed confidence. As Speaker Ryan
recognized when he announced the
House GOP’s “Confident America” focus, restoring confidence
in the American economy is key. Nowhere
is confidence a bigger factor than with entrepreneurship.
19. Benjamin Franklin, one of America’s Founding Fathers and an
accomplished inventor once famously
said, “Don’t put off until tomorrow what you can do today.”
We won’t put off until tomorrow what our small businesses are
asking that we do today.
Chabot has represented Ohio’s 1st Congressional District since
2011, and from 1995 to 2009. He is
chairman of the Small Business Committee and also sits on the
Foreign Affairs and the Judiciary
committees.
